Social Security
Squibs
Thanks a little
Thanks a lot
Better give the right number
To keep what you’ve got.
The next time you get a with
holding tax statement, take a
look at the social security num
ber and compare it with the
number on your card. If the
name and the number on both
the card and the statement are
not identical, you may be los
ing credit for the taxes your
employer has paid in for you.
It is amazing the number of
women there are who have cele
brated their tenth wedding an
niversary, but have never noti
fied social security to change
their name. And the man who
would think twice about buying
something without seeing it will
never hesitate to rattle off his
social security number from
memory. Even if he has the
number letter p e rfe c t, it is
much more difficult for the man
hiring him to write the num
ber down when it is given to
him orally than when he can
actually see it and copy it and
recheck it for accuracy. Yet
there is no way that Social Se
curity can give you credit for
your work unless the name and
number turned in with your
wage reports agrees with the
one in their original file. To
correct your card is very easy
—just ask for a change of rec
ord form from the post office
or the nearest social security
office —or contact the represen
tative, Miss Kaufmann. She will
be in Pembroke, Ga., at the
Court House on Monday, Oc
tober 13, 1969 from 9:30 to
10:30 A.M.

Governor Terms
Some Officials
‘Double Cowards’
ATLANTA, (GPS) — “Cen
tralization of government is
growing by leaps and bounds,
and as this growth continues,
the states and all citizens are
losing many of their freedoms
and rights,” declared Gov. Les-
ter G. Maddox in a speech to
the International Association of'
Industrial Accident Boards and
Commissions in Atlanta.
“Once major services of gov
ernment are totally centralized
in a national government, the
wage earner and all Americans,
black and white, will have lost
the greater part of their free
dom,” he said.
Asserting that "there is no
person anywhere who loves his
country more than Lester Mad
dox,” the governor said “I exalt
our Constitution, I fully sup
port our republican form of
government, and cherish the
democratic ideals which are part
of my heritage as an Ameri
can.”
"But,” he added, “I hold in
low contempt those public offi
cials and those of their policies
which contradict the guarantees
made by our hard-won Consti
tution and which seek to sub
ject our people to an inefficient
and patently illegal bureaucrat
ic tyranny which subverts the
will of the majority.
“To sin by silence makes
cowards of men, but when a
public official not only fails to
speak out against wrongs when
he sees them, but also criticizes
the honest person who does
speak out, then that public of
ficial is a double coward.”
Gov. Maddox said some peo
ple seem willing to accept the
philosophy that the government
belongs to a president, the con
gressmen, the governors, the
judges and other public offici
als.
“Phooey on that,” he declar
ed. “The government belongs to
the people, and the people who
work for a living, who abide
by the law, who pay their taxes
and support their communities
should have an overriding voice
in the policies of their govern
ment.”
Improved Trees
Seedling A Boost
MACO N — Improved tree
seedlings, or industry called
“super” trees, account for 60
percent of the Georgia Forestry
Commission’s 1969 seedling
crop, announces Ray Shirley,
Commisison director.
The improved trees, grown
from seed selected fr o m the ,
Forestry Commission’s seed or- ।
chards, total 28,422,814. This is .
the largest production of im- i
proved trees since the Commis- 1
sion first made the trees avail
able in 1964.
The entire 1969 loblolly pine '
seedling production is in im-
proved stock, Shirley pointed
out. This amounts to more than
15 million seedlings.
Shirley cited the more than
35 million improved or superior
loblolly and slash pine trees
planted in Georgia over the
past five years as making the
state one of the foremost lead
ers in the development of im
proved stock. Shirley added that
the five year progeny test, test
ing of offspring, revealed an
average growth increase of 20
percent in yield per year and 10
per cent in height growth com
pared to regular tree seedlings
on the same area.
Approximately 47,365,329 tree
seedlings are available for ord
er by Georgia landowners, ac
cording to Shirley. An addition
al 7,904,748 seedlings are being
grown under contract for indus
tries. The seed, furnished by in
dustry, came from their seed
producing orchards.
The 1970 crop will see the
Forestry Commission obtain an
other national first with the
production of certified tree
seedlings. James C. Wynens,
chief, Reforestation Division,
said that the Georgia Crop im
provement Association recently
certified the 1969 cone crop
after an inspection of Commis
sion seed orchards. The Tree
Improvement Program has ent
ered into the tree breeding
phase which will make possible
tree selections having increased
yields over present stock.
Wynens emphasized that pay
ment must accompany all ord
ers before shipment can be
made. No refunds will be made
on orders cancelled after Feb
ruary 1, 1970.
The early submission of ord
ers is encouraged as all orders
received prior to the first of
November will be filled depend
ing on supply. If orders exceed
supply, the trees will be prorat
ed between orders. Orders re
ceived after the first of Novem-

A move is underway in South
Georgia to persuade Dr. McKee
Hargrett, Wayne County legisla
tor, to run for governor in 1970
on a conservative platform. The
project is under the direction of
Dr. B. G. Cogdell, of Alma, a
Wallace elector in 1968, and was
kicked off by a meeting in Alma
about 10 days ago.
Dr. Cogdell told the writer that
Dr. Hargrett has not agreed to
make the race, but that strenu
ous efforts will be made to con
vince him that he can win. Ob
viously, no official announce
ment of his candidacy, if such
develops, for some months, yet.
Dr. Hargrett has sterling cre
dentials as a conservative, and is
widely known in Georgia for his
attempts to take the Georgia
standard off the floor at the
Democratic National Convention
in Chicago. The Wayne County
legislator is a hard worker, and,
properly financed, his campaign
could get off the ground.

he announced that he was there

THE PEMBROKE JOURNAL, Thursday, September 25, 1969—
A humorous twist to the pre
sentation by Gov. Winthrop
Rockefeller of a new bicycle to
Maddox was the quip from Les
ter to Winthrop: “It is paid for?”
We’re wondering if the Hatch
Act, forbidding federal employ
ees from political activity, ap
plies to Atlanta’s mayoralty
election. If so, why haven’t the
several federal workers been
prohibited from running and
holding onto their government
job?
• **••*.
More and more of the truth
about Martin Luther King, Jr.,
continues to come out. Eventual
ly, the voluminous FBI files on
him will be made public and ev
erybody will realize that he
lacked a long way from being
the saint that some Negroes and
the white liberals have made
him.
We have just discovered the
truth about what happened in the
famous meeting between King
and FBI Director J. Edgar
after Hoover called King “a
notorious liar", and King sought
a meeting with the FBI boss.
It seems that King and a num
ber of other Negroes sat in
Hoover’s anteroom waiting to
see J. Edgar, but when Hoover
opened his door he admitted only
King. Hoover sat down at his
desk, flipped a switch and a
tape recorder began to spit out
some of King’s phone conversa
tions which had been taped by
the FBI.
This went on for about a min
ute, then Mr. Hoover switched
it off and said: “Dr. King, are
you a liar”? King answered
quietly: “Yes, I’m a liar”,
turned and walked out. Nothing
more was heard from Martin
Luther on the subject.
South Georgians to whom we
have talked lately say that Jim
my Carter’s stock has dropped
considerably all over that part
of the state. Not, they say, that
it was ever very high. But now
he has nothing left, but a few
young people. A great part of
this is due, we are told, to the
realization of the public that
Carter really has nothing on the
ball, and his speeches contain
pure trivialities.
We are of the opinion that the
same holds true in North Geor
gia, though the evidence is not
yet as conclusive as in South
Georgia. Only around Atlanta is
the Carter myth of being a
“brilliant young man" still ac
cepted by the liberals.
If all the above is true, then
Carl Sanders has the governor
ship won in a walk, pending, of
course, the emergence of a
strong and forceful conservative
of the Wallace stripe, with a
wealth of campaign funds.
Attendance And
Revenue Rise At
Ga. State Parks
ATLANTA, (GPS) — Both
attendance and revenue record
ed substantial gains at Geor
gia’s state parks during the
first six months of 1969 over
the comparable period a year
ago, according to a report re
leased by State Parks Director
John L. Gordon.
Attendance during the Janu
ary-through-June period totaled
3,808,077, an increase of 822,-

year.
Gross receipts were $512,110
