THE MOST TRUSTED NAME IN ELECTRONICS Rural Group To BuiW Water System A loan in the amount of S400.000 to a group of 375 farm and rural families in Pickens County to develop a wafer distribution system has been approved by the Farm ers Home Administration, re ports Edwin P. Rogers, the agency’s state director. The loan will enable the Bethlehem-Roanoke Commun ity Water District to con struct a water distribuiton system covering an area ap proximately 30 square miles, 42 miles of piping of vary ing sizes ranging from 10-in. down to 2-in., and 40 fire hydrants will be included in the system. The system will be capable of delivering 40.- 000 gallons of water per day when completed. Difector Rogers reports that 353 farmers and rural residents. 12 stores, 7 church es, one saw mill and one country club will be served by the stystem. At the present time, there are no industrial establishments in this area. However, with fire protec tion, the possibility of attract ing industry is greatly in creased. Rural water system loans are avalable to non-profit or ganizations when adequate credit cannot be obtained from other lenders at reason-1 able rates and terms which could be repaid by the dis trict. They are repayable over a period of up to 40 years. Since June, 1963. the Farm ers Home Administration has made 50 loans to rural groups and small towns in South Carolina for a total of $4,004,- 670. .John Patterson, County Su pervisor for the Laurens County Farmers Home Ad ministration, advises that this type of loan is available in Laurens County, provded the organization operates on a non-profit basis, control of the organization is retained by farmers and rural resi dents and that applicants are unable to obtain - adequate funds from other sources at rates and terms that they can reasonably be expeced to ful fill. THP. WHITE HOUSE Is not by any means the only place being kept In the dark by the Administration’s policy of “blackout.” For Congress, the Administration has left on the lights, but has turned off the flow of current Information, particularly in the area of Na tional Defense. CENSORSHIP OF testimony to Congress by military wit nesses has long been practiced. In the investigation of censor ship of the military in 1961-62. the Senate Preparedness Sub committee reported: “Under the system then, whatever the intent might be, the result is that Congress, even In execu tive sessions, is told what the Defense and State Depart ments decide the officer should be permitted to say and not what the officer himself wants to say.” DESPITE THESE findings and proteats by Congress, the prior censorship of testimony of military witnesses continues. TWO TEARS AGO, an addi tional Department of Defense Directive was Issued for mili tary witnesses. In this “guid ance,” officers were directed that, when asked for their own personal opinion by Senators or Congressmen, they are to give the ‘‘official" position and the reasons for it. and to give their personal opinion only if “pressed.” TWO ADDITIONAL tools are being used to enforce the policy of “blackout” on defense information to Congress. These tools are delay and security classification. IN MANY INSTANCES, "blackout” can be as effective ly accomplished by Information delayed as by Information denied. The instances of delay are many. IN THE HOUSE of Repre sentatives, the Chairman of the Armed Services Committee had to go to the extreme of sus pending further consideration of the 1967 Defense Authoriza tion Bill until the Defense De partment would furnish needed information. IN THE SENATE, the mili tary Preparedness Investigat ing Subcommittee has been particularly hamstrung bv the dilatory tactics of the Depart ment of Defense For example, information on the Army's new divisions and brigades request ed on August 19, 1965. was not furnished until ^February 8, 1966. Information "requested about the Army’s rifle program on September 24. 1965, was not received until January 26. 1966 Documents were assembled r.v military units for the Subcom mittee’s staff investigators in Viet Nam on October 25. 1965. Instead of being sent directly to the Subcommittee, the mate rial was required to be mailed to the Defense Department in Washington, and was not all forwarded by DOD to the Sub committee until January 11, 1966. Information which is “embarrassing” to Defense De partment officials is not de livered until circumstances are so changed that it is no longer applicable. , SUCH INFORMATION as is given to the Congress is con trolled with a heavy hand through excessive use of "secu rity classification." Thus, when a Committee finally gets some pertinent information, it cannot be made available to all mem bers through printed hearings because it is “classified.” Con gressman Sikes (D-Fla.). in apologizing to the House for the “useless” hearings on the Supplemental Defense Appro priation. pointed out that some of the information deleted from the hearings had been re leased at press conferences by Defense officials. CONGRESS CANNOT per form In the dark. Unless the blackout Is ended soon, Amer icans may find that when the lights are turned on in the White House again, one man rale has moved in. fNot prepared or printed at government expense j (OX HOME & AUTO SUPPLY PM* ttS-Oft* FAT OVERWEIGHT Available to you without a doctor’s preserptthm, oar frodaet called Galaton.
