Georgia Governor Aroused By Ludowici Speed Trap
?? •w
ATLANTA UPI — If the American Automobile Association (AAA) had been in existence at the time, it probably would have warned Sherman to bypass Ludowici, Ga., on his march to the sea. Ludowici, for at least the past decade, consistently has been the AAA’s public enemy No. 1 because of the alleged speed traps awaiting Yankee tourists on their way to Florida. Now Georgia Gov. Lester Maddox has declared war on the town astride the intersection of U.S. Highways 82 and 301, a major New York-to-Miami artery. Speedtraps, Maddox charged Monday, are flourishing. “We’re getting reports daily about people who are being fined excessively,he said. “If we miss a day, we get three or four the next day.” The governor threatened to take away the traffic arrest powers of the Ludowici police force, an executive penalty Gov. Carl Sanders invoked several years ago after numerous speed trap complaints. Ludowici officials could not be reached for immediate comment. The AAA and other motor associations had warned its members to detour the town in recent years because of a “tricky" traffic light at the in-

tersection. The AAA contended the light changed so quickly it was almost impossible to avoid running a red light. More recently, Maddox said, truckers have complained of being fined $112 each for failure to have $1 fuel-use stickers on their windshields. And a Canadian couple, Mr. and Mrs. Karl J. Gmach of Kitchener, Ont, told the governor in a letter that he was fined $39 and ordered to pay it immediately
or wait more than a month in jail for trial on a traffic violation in Long County. “They were treated like criminals for a minor traffic violation,” Maddox said. “This condition cannot be tolerated. “If I had my way and if it wasn’t for the good people of Long County, I would run the highway around this area,” the governor said. The AAA stood ready to propose an alternate route.
Exposure To Sun Can Result In Skin Cancer
The Putnam County Unit of the American Cancer Society pointed out today that the coming summer will bring many outdoor activities and exposure to the sun. Sunning oneself is pleasant and healthy. Sunlight, however, can be dangerous. Some 85,000 people in the United States developed skin cancer in 1966 and about 5,000 died of it. Five thousand deaths do not seem so many in relation to all cancer deaths, but the number is large when you think of it as comparable to the wiping out of two-thirds of a community the size of Greeneastle. Ifce number is even more significant when it Is known that many of these deaths could have been avoided and, in fact, most cases of skin cancer could have been prevented. It has been said that a large fraction of those who die of skin cancer are lost for no good reason at alL The words, “for no good reason,” explain why the American Cancer Society has included skin cancer control in its five-year action program to save more lives from cancer.

The Society’s program calls for widespread dissemination of information to aid in preventing skin cancer that results from excessive exposure to the sun and from environmental hazards. Most skin cancers are caused by over-exposure to the sun. A beach umbrella can be protective on the beach or lawn. So can an application of lotion or cream. Something as simple as putting on a long-sleeved shirt or a broad-brimmed hat may save one from developing skin cancer. Worship the sun, but worship it with respect. The signs of skin cancer are easily visible. Any newly developed blemish of the skin that does not go away within about two weeks should be looked at by a physician. If a change In a wart or mole occurs, such as a tendency to bleed, ulcerate or darken in color, a doctor should check it Doctors have warned: “If such a sign develops, don’t be alarmed; don’t wish it away; take it to a doctor. Only he can tell you whether it is cancer. The chances are it will not be, although more people develop skin cancer than any other form. But If it Is detected early, the malignant cells can almost always be removed or destroyed before they cause any vital damage.”
Dillon Rules On 4-Mitional Pay INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Atty Gen. John J. Dillon has ruled that city officials may receive pay from municipally owned utilities in addition to their regular salaries under certain situations. Dillon wrote the opinion at the request of State Examiner Richard L. Worley of the Indiana Board of Accounts, whose office has received numerous inquiries following a recent decision of the Indiana Supreme Court The high court had determined that a former -‘ty attorney of Clinton was not entitled to extra pay for work he did on the extension and reconstruction of Clinton’s waterworks. Worley said the question arose because of possibly divergent views between this ruling and earlier Attorney General rulings in 1956 and 1965. Dillon concluded that since the high court’s denial of compensation was based on the failure to comply with laws covering such extra pay, city officials who did comply with the statutes could receive the extra pay. Dillon wrote that regular salaries established for municipal officials such as city attorneys, engineers and others “will be calculated on the basis of the time and energy such officers will expend in the normal or average year. The salaries so established to not contemplate the hundreds of additional hours of work involved in those rare years in which a municipally owned utility issues bonds to finance the construction or expansion of its facilities. Such additional work mo ft be compensated.” He suggested “the most practical method is by an award of additional compensation made for the particular work involved and paid by the utility occasioning such work. To avoid confusion concerning the services *i.a eojnpen.M v * involved and tr prevent pos^bie denial of the c empensation. officials seeking '.Mnpensation should take the steps necessa.y to bring that 'ompensatioa clearly within the pirview” of the law. “Award of compensation should plainly specify both the amount and the recipient, should establish that the services performed are other than governmental, should be awarded by the administrative authority in charge of the utility and should be approved by both the council and the mayor," Dillon advised.
