In the lieutenant governor's race, the voters nominated moderate George T. Smith, speaker of the Georgia House, over conservative Peter Zack Geer, the incumebnt. Geer told newsmen last night: "I want to tell you one more time-I'm fstill th the h"t lieutenant f lk governor o e w 1 e o s. I'm glad Lester Maddox beat Ellis Arnall." Dr. Martin Luther· King Jr. who lives in Atlanta said th; voting "revealed that 'Georgia is desperately competing with Mississippi for the bottom " "I must confess th Mr . a · Maddox's VIctory causes me to be ashamed to be a Georgian. This pretends that the days abeaa in race relations will be confusingly dreary and the nights will be darker than a thousand midnights."

Dear "Carbon Paper" Allen: Tne dignity of a man who is mayor of our Atlanta was lost entirely yesterday with your deplora.Dle comments about Mr. Maddox. To condescend to refer to him as "Drwnstick Olicken Maddox" is one of the worst remaicl<s that I have ever heard. In his reply, Mr. Maddox said that you smmded like Martin Luther King. Mr. King says that the State of Ga. is sick, and in my opinion HE is the one who is sick--in the head! With his communistic viewpoints he belongs in Russia and we do not care what he thinks of our wonderful State. I have never voted for Lester Maddox in my life, nor do I ever intend to cast a ballot f or him. However, he has made an honest living and, though it be witn chickens , there is certainly no disgrace to this. You inherited your's- yes- it was handed down on a silver platter! Many of us are not so fortunate! It would be well for you to take a lesson from sorre of our intelligent politicians who are discreet at the more crucial t irres and prove it by saying nothing. ��- --- --- ~, -:-- -- ~ -- -~ -- ' - -- - - - ~ -- - �POST CARD ��POST CARD /JJ 11-lf Orl .tl-1Ie-!U r!//y !kt-t;+r f-y,'h,J 1-iAM.) ��I ,- - -- - ---= POST CARD '- ��r --, / _ _ _J �\ \ I ��QI 4'1' I ....

Dear Mre Allen: I think this speech was very 2 damageing (not to Mr. Maddox) but to you, yourself. It will long be remembered that you called us ignorant because we chose Mre Maddox for our next Governor of Georgia. I cone in contact with a lot of people every day, and they all say that your speech was dephorable, and that you had no right to question the peoplets choice and to call us ignorant because we elected Mr. Maddox instead of your millionaire friend, Mr. Arnall. You seem to have the mistaken idea — that if you are not a millionaire, like yourself, you are ignorant.

(AP)—Lester G. Maddox, a segregationist running a shoestring campaign, has captured the Democratic nomination for governor—upset- ting a moderate candidate and Georgia's middleroad racial course. Maddox, a furniture merchant who quit the cafeteria business rather than be forced to serve Negroes, decisively defeated |Ellis G, Arnall, a former gov- ‘enor, in yesterday’s primary runoff. Arnall had led a. six- man race two weeks ago. “God and the people are my campaign managers,” exulted Maddox, 50, after pulling off the upset without big-money back- ers or the support of highrank- ing politicians. reported the vote ‘count stood at: Maddox 419,557, Arnall 356,078, Not a Racial Campaign A fiery opponent of the federal government, President Johnson, liberalism, socialism and com- munism, Maddox says he shares the racial views of Alabama’s Gov. George C. Wallace. But }Maddox said very little about \racial issues in his campaign. Arnall, 59, who scored a major upset two decades ago to win the governorship over the popular Eugene Talmadge, had charged in the runoff t that Mad- dox was radical and an ex- tremist, a man whose symbols were ax handles and pistols. Segregationist Tops Arnall In Georgia Democrat Runoff A Look at the Lester Maddox Politi- cal Method. Page A-12 Maddox, in resisting integra- tion in 1964 and 1965, once waved a pistol to chase Negroes from his place and provided ax handles for white patrons. When ordered by a court to serve Negroes, Maddox quit the cafeteria business. Arnall met Maddox to concede personally. Some followers of Arnall said Republicans voted for Maddox as the easier oppo- nent for their nominee in No- vember. Taking on Maddox in the first Georgia two-party contest for governor since Reconstruction will be Rep. Howard H. (Bo) Callaway, the state’s lone Re- publican congressman. He is a conservative ex-Democrat who helped carry the state for Barry Goldwater in 1964. The voting patterns were jumbled strangely—adding at least some weight to the view that Republicans voted for Maddox. In the Goldwater strongholds of Macon, Augusta and Columbus, Arnall managed bare majorities after leading the field two weeks ago in those same cities. In the lieutenant governor’s race, the voters nominated moderate George T. Smith, speaker of the Georgia House, over conservative Peter Zack Geer, the incumebnt. Geer told newsmen last night: “I want to tell you one more time—I’m still the lieutenant governor of the white folks, ’m glad Lester Maddox beat Ellis Arnall.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who lives in Atlanta, said the voting “revealed that Georgia is desperately competing with Mississippi for the bottom.” “T must confess that Mr. Maddox’s victory causes me to be ashamed to be a Georgian. This pretends that the days ahead in race relations will be confusingly dreary and the nights will be darker than a thousand midnights.”’ Maddox takes charge of the almost completely disorganized Democratic party which under Gov. Carl E. Sanders has steered a moderate course, Maddox will control the state delegation to the Democratic National Convention in 1968 and serve as titular party chief, even i he loses to Callaway on Nov. racial | Wallace is expected to run for president on a third-party ticket in “68.

In the gubernatorial race this year he had openly sup- ported Ellis Arnall. He reacted to the Maddox vic- tory in a statement that was at least: as strongly worded and to the point as any he has made as mayor. Then, during a press confer- ence, he let loose and said much more in the same vein. Mr. Allen was asked several times during the press confer- ence whether he might not en- dorse and support Republican Howard (Bo) Callaway in thé general election. He had a variety of answers including one that won't do Mr. Callaway any harm. Mr. Allen first said Mr. Calla- _way hasn’t sought his support and that, besides, he wouldnit _try to influence the votes af | ether Georgians. _ Later he said he might simply | go fishing Nov, 8, the general election date. Finally he ended up saying he | looks upon Mr. Callayay, “as8 _man of intelligence, background, a man of ‘ae nd integrity who could bring honesty and decency to the _statehouse.”’ MAYOR ALLEN nonetheless took a poke at “smart alec Re- _ publicans’ who, according to him, voted for Mr. Maddox ih the Democratic runoff primary Wednesday. He declared that one thing he ——_————_—_.____ intends to_work’ for ardently is a state*faw that will force Re- publicans to vote in a Repub- lican primary and Democrats to vote in a Democratic pri- mary. “Unless we do get on this basis, then the hope for a two- partyssystem will be lost, in light of the duplicity. that oc- curred yesterday,” he said. !
