I Most of us have hoard the old but | t true saying, "A half truth is equal to f u whole lie". Therefore, let's hear the whole truth or nothing. Since one- v halt' has been published it is neoes- j sary that the other be also. , First we all know there is a speed law in South Carolina and that it is the duty of the J'tural Police to ent force it in this County. i We also know that when an officer; t I signals us to stop or halts us it is our j v duty to stop. Tes even those who j , own a drug store and write (Dr.) be- L l'ore their names are not above "the . majesty of the law. There has been many requests that l t something be done to stop speeding L on tile road from Lexington to Co- t iumbia, and linaliy the three Kural < Police with Mr. Alvin Dew, went on , the road to enforce the speed law. t J: was during the day and they j were on the long straight stretch of j road from Arthur Station to near St. ? David's church, absolutely no excuse i for suspecting an unlawful holdup. , especially as Mr. Harman is well ac- { o.uainted with all four of the officers. i Tlie distance on the road had been 1 measured and the officers were using . a stop watch. X<> guess work in this, j Mr. Harman broke the speed reeord ] for the day. , The olliecrs had stopped a number t of ears, some from other States but i all stopped at the proper sicnai and 3 cave the required !?o:id. > Finally i)r.

Outlining the position of the minority, Representative Garrett of Tennessee, acting Democratic Rude., declared that "ini'juity of the proposal was glaringly apparent" in view of the statement of Representative Green of Iowa, ranking Republican member of the ways and means committee, that it would not increasethe price paid the farmer for his product. nil*.
