on our own actions that the
PTA claims are Illegal" said
Charles w. Bell, school board
chairman.
4-MOnth Controversy
Controversy over school board
and County Council pairing Of
school budget requests has been
going on four months. Mr..
Bell feels lit should be settled
once and for ALL"
IT still feel we acted within
the law, but If we didn't we
certainly want to know and
rectify the situation" Mr.. Bell
added.
The Forthcoming staff report
on the PTA complaint must be
discussed with the school board
attorney before further steps
are considered, Mr.. Bell added.
County School Supt. c. Tay-
lor Whittier said he doubts the
staff report can be ready in
time for the county board meet
ing August 26.
Willard Cass, president Of the
.PTA council, asked permission
to appear before the local board
in May to explain the PTA
charges but the request was
denied. He subsequently went
to the State board.
Mr.. Bell said that since the
county board already had a
copy Of the PTA complaint, he
felt Mr.. Cass' appearance would
involve repetition Of written
material and delay action on
other important matters.
Claims Standards Violated
In his complaint, Mr.. Cass
charged that budget cuts re-
duced the supervisor-teacher
ratio below the 1-to-50 figure
required by law. He also
charged that the number of
elementary school physical
education teachers was insult
ficient to give children the
amount Of such instruction re-
Quired each week.
A major PTA complaint is
that the County Councils lin
itation Of 200 proposed new
teaching positions leaves pupil
teacher ratios inconsistent
with State standards.
In the last two fiscal years
Mr.. Cass said the County
Council has rolled up 1913 mil
lion in school SURPRISES that
could more than" pay for all
the disputed Items.
Council President John A.
Floyd has repeatedly replied
that the council acted COM
pletely within its legal au-
thority in the economy moves.
The school board staff said
the nearly $425,00O the coun-
Gil cut illegally involves over
all reduction in certain salary
and supply categories where
specific cuts should have been
pinpointed. Also, the staff
said council elimination of
some funds for clerical and
professional assistants to the
superintendent violated State
law.

subcommittee, any interstate
projects would have to be able
to handle traffic for a 20-year
period after start Of construc-
ton.
For the Three Sisters bridge,
the new legislation would mean
it would have to be built to
handle 1888 traffic. The North
Leg freeway would have to be
able to handle the increasing
traffic loads expected around
1885 or 1886.
Because traffic is increasing
at around 2.5 to 3 per cent each
year, about rs per cent more
traffic would be expected to
use the freeway and bridge in
1885.
2 Projects Called Needed
The National Capital Trans
portation Agency last year told
President Kennedy that the
two projects would not be
needed if its 98-mile rail trans
it system was completed by
1912. The President did not
oppose the two projects, but he
asked last May for a careful
re-examination.
Another compromise pro-
posed for the Three Sisters
bridge is for it to be moved
downstream from the site be-
tween Spout Run and Glover

For Mississippi
Charlie Sullivan Speaks Out
Gan EditOrial)

Charlie Sullivan's true devotion to the future vel
fare of Mississippi compelled him, in his own words,
to speak out for the best interest of our state which
Will be served under the leadership of former Governor
Coleman" He gave ample reasons for his choice.
Admittedly it was not an easy task for the Clarks-
dale attorney who polled 132, O6O votes for third place
on the Democratic Primary ticket.
Silence would perhaps have benefited Mr.. Sulli-
van and his family more. But as he said, it would have
been inconsistent with his own views not to make a
public statement.
81 have been under unremitting extreme pressure
every minute since returning from Florida" he told a
statewide television audience early Monday evening.
He said he had constantly been subjected to pres
sure to keep from making this statement" Obviously,
the pressure did not come from the Col man camp.
At the same time he said neither he nor any mem
Der of his family had been threatened with physical
reprisal."
Mr.. Sullivan omitted the mention of economic or
financial reprisals. But if these pressures were exerted
upon Mr.. Sullivan, or any of his financial hackers in
the campaign, as widely reported, we may rest assured
they will eventually be brought to light.
Not that Mississippians will be surprised, if this
proved to be true. We have been living for several
years now in Mississippi under a regime that seeks to
destroy all who dare to disagree or refuse to go along
with it one hundred per cent. "You are for us or against
us" they say. There is no middle ground God help
us, if this idea continues to dominate the state power
structure. We Mississippians will be no better off from
the standpoint of individual freedom than are the peo-
pie in Communist Russia.
Charlie Sullivan, always a likeable man, never
stood taller than when he told his friends and the
people of Mississippi he "covetss our Friendship and
respect" but reminded he had never predicated his
personal action on what is popular at the moment,
but on the basis of what he thinks as a man."
God give us more men with his philosophy in
politics and out!

Fully Automatic
Lonesome George
Is Package Deal

A fully automatic natural
gas compressor station is be-
ing built by Texas Eastern
Transmission Corporation in
Yazoo County to expand the
capacity of the company's
20-inch line that runs from
West Monroe, Louisiana to
Kosciusko, Mississippi.
Located northwest of the
Yazoo City Municipal Air
port, the station will be COM
pleted and in operation by
September LIST.
A delegation of company
officials and engineers flew
in from Houston, Texas, last
Wednesday to view construc-
ton progress. Senior Vice
President and Chief Engineer
A. J. Shoup headed the visi-
+4t4T
tors.
Eastern has been pioneering
in the "packaged" concept of
compressor stations design
ed around large gas turbine
prime movers and the use of
telemetry for automatic re-
mote operation of these sta
tons.
This type of unit that has
now not only proved its
economy but has also demon
strated a remarkable degree
of operating efficiency and
dependability, is in operation
at such points on Texas East
terms system as Kosciusko,
Danville, Kentucky and Del
mont, Pennsylvania. AS ex-
pansions to the system have
moved forward, it logically
followed that new compress
sion horsepower should be
added to the system in the
form of these remotely ope-
rated packaged units.
Such is the case with the
new compressor station the
company is constructing at
Yazoo City. In expanding
the capacity of the company's

station is the elimination of
this concept and will be the
first installation made IN
complete accordance with the
Lonesome George" idea.
At Yazoo City, Texas East

horsepower packaged gas
turbine unit nearly identical
to the two units installed
last year at Danville, Ken

First Bale Cotton

Aaron Gatson of Richland
ginned the first bale of cot
ton for the season on Mon
day night, August IL. When
he visited the office of The
Advertiser at 5 p. m. Mon
day, his truck was loaded
with 1900 pounds of lint
cotton, and he was looking
for a gin that was operating.
Informed by telephone that
Goodman Gin Company was
open, he returned there to gin
his cotton and on Tuesday
it was stored at the Lexing-
ton Compress.
Gatson's cotton was of
DPL variety and was planted
in March on the 100 acre
farm owned by him at Rich
land In presenting the first
bale to be ginned in the
county he is eligible for
prizes by Lexington mer-
