Smith of Fujton County said Friday he expected a bill to legalize mixed drink sales in wet counties to be Introduced in the 1958 session of the General Assembly. He said he probably would not personally offer the measure. But he predicted someone would. Most of Georgia's larger cities that are legally wet have permitted the sale of mixed drinks at bars for years. But there are no specific statutes permitting it.

These sales have been allowed under an old ruling by the state revenue department on the, alcoholic content of drinks and under city "wine-pouring" licenses. The issue was recently brought to a head by a Georgia Court of Appeals ruling in a Columbus case outlawing sale of mixed drinks. The case is now under appeal to the Georgia Supreme Court. Henry L. Bowden, associate city attorney of Atlanta, has ruled that the sale of whisky by the drink under any guise is il legal.

City officials are awaiting the Supreme Court's action be fore taking any action. Atlanta convention officials have said the city would lose half of its income from the $23,000,000 a year convention business if mixed drinks are out lawed.

RESTAURANT 104 LUCKIE ST. Brand New Jlfciiw Russell, chairman of the Senate Armed Forces Committee, expressed the opinion in comment ing on Secretary of Defense Mc-E 1 announcement that Pentagon will ask Congress (or an extra billion dollars for such purpose.

On arriving in Washington from the Paris NATO meetings, McEl-roy told newsmen the additional money would be used for missiles and other arms in connection with the NATO military buildup. This would boost the defense budget for the fiscal year ending next June 30 to about 39' i billions. Russell pledged his support to McElroy's plan, and even said the defense secretary should ask for a billion and a half. The Georgia senator said he believed no additional taxes would be necessary to increase the defense appropriation. "It can be shaved off current foreign aid funds," he added.

"We are at least a couple of years behind Russia and the United States must regain its weapons superiority at any cost," he declared. Russell, in Roehelle for an address in the Wilcox County cen tennial celebration, said that with the nation ging full speed it would require at least two years to overtake Russia in missile de velopment. 3 Youths Arrested Three Wisconsin youths were arrested in Valdosta Friday on charges of interestate transportation of a stolen automobile.
