The bridegroom- elect is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Lennon Hove of Toccoa, Georgia. The wedding will take place on September 6, 1969 in the Lutheran Church of the Re deemer. The bride-elect was graduated from Agnes Scott College, At- Tribute paid to G. I. Bill Noting that this week marks the 25th anniversary of the fam ed World War II G. I Bill, Donald E. Johnson, Administra tor of Veterans Affairs, paid this tribute to the pioneering legislation: “Only 16 days after General Eisenhower gave his historic or der which launched the invas ion of Europe, the now famous World War II G. I. Bill became law. “Visionary as they were, it is doubtful that the framers of one of the most enlightened laws ever enacted by any gov ernment could have known on June 22, 1944, when the G. I. Bill was signed, how much this revolutionary concept in veter an benefits would contribute to the welfare of millions of vet erans and to the well being of our nation. “During the past quarter of a century, more than 11 million veterans have received part or all of their adult education and training under the three G. I. Bills enacted for World War II, Korean Conflict, and Vietnam Era veterans. “Our national economy has been bolstered by nearly $75 billion through the 7.4 million home, business, and farm loans made under these G. I. Bills. “Some economists have esti mated that the nation’s $21 bil lion G. I. Bill investment in America’s veterans will be re covered many times over in the added taxes which these vet erans pay on the increased earn ings made possible by the high er education and new or im proved skills acquired under the G. I. Bill. “This bonus to America is gratifying. “But on this 25th Anniversary of the G. I. Bill, let us not lose sight of the real purpose and the greatest reward of this landmark program. lanta with an A. B. degree and is now attending Emory Univ ersity, where she will be a can didate for the Master of Lib- rarianship degree in August. The bridegroom-elect is employ ed by General Motors Corpora tion in Atlanta. No formal invitations are be ing sent in Newberry; friends and relatives of the couple are invited to attend the ceremony and the reception. “It had but one main object ive: to help the returning war veteran help himself to become as responsible a citizen as he had been a serviceman. “This objective of the World War II and Korean G. I. Bills has been attained because mil lions of veterans of these wars have used the benefits of these programs so wisely and so well. “We are proud of the exist ing programs available to our present day veterans, but we must ever seek ways in which these programs can be improv ed and made available to the largest possible number of Viet nam veterans. “We must convince these vet erans, particularly the educa tionally disadvantaged, that it is altogether right that they use their G. I. Bill benefits to serve their own best interests. “Like the veterans of World War II and Korea, they subor dinated their personal welfare for months and years to the compelling task of defending freedom against those who would deny and destroy it. “By their service and sacri fice, America’s veterans have earned the G. I. Bill educa tion, training, and loan benefits a grateful nation has provided them. “They have also vindicated the faith of those who believed that they would become serious, capable students if given the chance; who were certain that returning war veterans wanted to experience the pride and the incentive of being responsible home owners; who had no doubt that the qualities of courage, determination, and dependabil ity, which made them the world’ finest servicemen, would insure their effective use of the G. I. Bill. “To commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the G..I. Bill is to celebrate the great victory every veteran who used this far-sighted benefit has won for himself, his family, his com munity, and his country. “For the G. I. Bill has helped him to become an even more self-confident, self supporting, self-respecting citizen. “And surely this is victory enough for any man.’’ HAPPY BIRTHDAY July 6: Miss Sara Wilson, Bill Armfield, Jr., Mrs. J.

The County Agents Column Quarantine on Hog Movement Effective midnight Saturday, June 21, no feeder pigs or any swine other than for slaughter may be moved from a farm unless inspected by an inspector from the Clemson Livestock Poultry Health Department. There has been a change in the length of time that no hogs, except those going to slaughter, will be allowed to move. The original effective date of the quarantine on hog move ment which became effective on June 21 was to remain in ef fect until July 7. This time has now been changed to at least 30 days and could be longer. During these days only those hogs going for immediate slaughter will be allowed to move in South Carolina. The increased time is neces sary to allow auction markets to get ready for the feeder pig sales, train inspectors, and to the fact that there has been ap proximately 30 days between the time an infected pig goes to market, located, and traced back to the original farm. Slaughter hogs may continue to move through their regular channels to market . Auction markets will not be allowed to sell feeder pigs on their regular sales day. They may set up a separate day to sell feeder swine only, if they so desire. If they do decide to hold a special feeder swine sale, the sales barn will have to be concreted and the pigs will have to be inspected on the farm prior to the sale. Farmers wanting to sell in the special sales will have to notify the auction market owners long enough in advance so that the pigs can be inspected on the farm within 5 to 7 days of sale by the inspector from the Live stock Poultry Health Depart ment. Feeder pigs moving direct from farm to farm will also have to be inspected before they can be moved. The responsibil ity for getting these pigs in spected will be on the man pro ducing them. The inspectors will issue per mits to the producers for the number of pigs he wants to sell. These permits must go with the pigs as no pigs will be accepted at the sales bam without them. All swine bought (feeder or purebred) will be quarantined to the farm of purchase for 30 days. Purebred swine will be cover ed by the quarantine regulations and will have to have permits to move. Additional information on the procedures and who the inspect ors are will be sent to you as we get it.
