CAN'T DO AS WE PLEASE dl
at
We have become so accustomed to th
doing pretty much as we please in
this country that It la hard for many 1
In of us to submit to the new laws cur- mi
^^fe^tailing what we conceive to be our
^^^Tfiadividuel rights. no
There are many persons right here co'
in Dillon county who think they er}
"don't have to" co-bperate> with the ^
food administration. They imagine gai
that they have an inherent right to an*
hoard and waste and it is nobody's
affair but their own. aga
k We have heard of one man who
1 bought IS barrels of flour when the
family consumption does not exceed
I more than three a year. T
^ Such person or persons should get ,n *
acquainted with section 17 -of the thel
Lever Act, which provides that any May
person who hoardes any quantity of who
foodstuffs above reasonable require- "d
? . mmue iengta of|? gr
^qqq or | ^ Hi
tw^^ear's imprisonment, or both, ?ucl
together with- confiscation of the Ai
goods so hoarded. kill
The government holds that from *nce
30 to 40 days' supply of staple food It
commodities might well be regarded are
as a reasonable amount. war
A further provision of the rood to h
laws is: "That every person who will- l?av<
fully assaults, resists. Impedes or in- It
terferes with any officer, employee or m?v
agent of the government in the exe- walk
cution of any duty authorized to be
performed by or pursuant to this act
shall, upon conviction thereof, be fin
ed not exceeding* $1,000 or be impris- poll
oned for not more than one year, or at
both." f:
The country is at war and the per
son who does not voluntarily make
sacrifices will be forced to do so.
There can be no restriction of
our liberties bo far as they are guar- _
anteed by the organic law of the " q",
land, but there has been a curtail- w
ment of our privileges and we may w
as well make up minds that we must W
submit tc it. SI
Those who willfully and persistently
resist the food laws are not
euly in a c'ass with traitors to their ^
country in a time of war, but can be
drastically handled under the Lever _
*** S.
USING IT THE WRONG WAY FOI
. C:
The Secretary of Agriculture asks 11
for an appropriauou of $6,000,000 ^
to be used as a revolving fund to purohase
and sell seed to farmers at reasonable
prices.
The argument is that unusual con- t>(
dltions prevail in many of the areas at
f the country, particularly where p?
there was extreme suffering last sea- Dl
- son from drought. w
There can be no objection to the
plan to purchase seed and sell them b
to the farmers et cost, but the seed I
problem on the farm is of minor import&nce
as compared to many other re
problems. he
The problem we have in mind is
that of marketing farm produce aft- 8TR
er It Is gathered. The crude^and un- 8r
satisfactory methods of present day ^
marketing are costing the farmers
millions of dollars annually. ^
Cotton is the naflon's most valus- ar
ble crop, yet there has been no im- ed
prorement in the methods of market- fe
t lng It in the past half a century.* ne

grades. For instance, WOT

hare as a rule passed the physical
lamination for the army.
And statistics just made publifc in
uiid mat a greater proportion of,
hletes hare enlisted In the army ; ?
an from any other class. j M(
Further than that, statistics from i
itian tell us that athletes hare; ;
tde the best soldiers. pg
And the climax comes in the an- j
uncement that athletes are en- <
