/ t Thursday, February 2, 1950 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Page Three A REGULAR CHRONICLE FEATURE Government And Business Must Give More Stimulants Babson Park, Fla., Feb. 1.—In my recent Forecast for 1950, I stated that 1950 will be almost as good as 1949. This means that most Industries and most localities will average near ly as well as for 1949. It is very pos sible, however, that 1950 may be the best year for some years to come.

For in stance, 1949 benefited from a mark ed increase in military preparedness. Also, in 1949, the first installment of Marshall Plan aid—amounting to $5,000,000,000—was sent “abroad, much of which helped U. S. indus tries. 1950 will, however, benefit from l the large amount of insurance mon- - ey to be- rebated to G. I. men. There I will also be some other windfalls; but thp European aid -money will be less in 1950. The farmers will have less money to spend in 195(1 (All told, general business for 1950 need not be much below 1919. We surely live in a great country.

HOME OFFICE, CLINTON—Rex Lanford, Secretary-Treasurer NEWBERRY OFFICE—Caldwell St., R. C. Hunter, Representative LAURENS OFFICE—Court House, Lucile Metis, Representative E. D. ASHLEY Ex-Service Man Improves Under Dr. Hart’s Care Long years of suffering from the after-effects of a fractured femur has final ly been halted by Dr. C. J. Hart, of Laurens, S. C. “For the first time in 5 years my right leg warmed up,” said this Ex-Service man, who was injured dur ing the Battle of Midway. E. I). Ashley, 123 Dupont Drive, Greenville, S. C„ who was awarded the Dis tinguished Service Cross and the Purple Heart dur ing the recent war, advises sick people to try Chiro practic for their health problems. Here is Mr. Ashley’s own story of his thrilling expe rience and the wonderful results he obtained under Dr. Hart’s care: . % “Greenville, S. C., January 14, 1950. “In June J4)42, while on military duty as a tail-gunner of a B-26, during the Battle of Midway, I received machine gun wounds which fractured the right femur. ' “First aid was administered at Midway Island, after which I was sent to a hospital in Honolulu, T. H. For the next fourteen months I was admitted to three Veterans’ Hospitals for treat ment for the above injury. Two operations were performed and I was placed in Russell Traction for two months and then placed in cast for two and a half months. Later I wore steel braces for three months. It was necessary to learn to walk again. “Recovery was slcW but I received some relief from physio therapy, massage and light treatments. I did not receive Chiro practic in service. “For ektra heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy during the engagement near Midway Island, June 1942, I was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. Having been wounded whilb performing meritorious acts of es sential service during the air and naval battle in the vicinity of Midway Island I was awarded the Purple Heart. “Following my discharge, I returned to civilian life and the condition of my right leg began to get worse. The right leg’was cold all the time due to poor circulation. There was a numbness above the right knee and a prickling' sensation all along the right leg. I was nervous and had very little?' energy. Upon standing or walking any great length of time, I suffered with lots of pains in the right leg. “I was of the opinion that Chiropractic treatment could help me, so I consulted Dr. C. J. Hart, Chiropractor, of Laurens, S. C. “An examination was made and X-ray 'pictures were taken of the spine. Dr. Hart advised me that there was a, misaligned bone of the upper part of the spine creating pressure upon nerves, which could be retarding recovery of the wounds suffered during the Battle of Midway. “Spinal adjustments were given by Dr. Hart and excellent results were obtained. For the first time in five years there was a warm feeling in my right leg. The prickling sensations and the pain were relieved by Chiropractic adjustments. I began to have more energy and the nervous condition improved. “After receiving such wonderful results from Chiropractic adjustments, I advise anyone suffering to consult a chiropractor for their health problems.” For further information concerning Chiropractic and what it can do to restore health, consult— DR. CHARLES J. HART 254 West Main St. — Laurens S. C. Next to First Methodist Church Dial 22501 Hours 9-12, 3-6 — Parking Space DR. HART TREATS VICTIMS OF POLIO WITHOUT CHARGE der for the patient to avoid more pain the dose of bromide must be increased. Those who depend upon liquor for a “lift” know that the amount used must be increased from year to yeurr—H*- order to get the same re sults. ■ « The_above illustrations apply to U. S. business. It is not enough for the government to expand “as much”* in 1950 as, in 1949 in order to hold up business. The government or pri vate enterprise must expend more in'1950 in ordefc. to prevent a de cline. The Republicans are wise in complaining about ever increasing expenditures and deficits; but in or der to keep the national income up to the 1949 figures, it is not enough fnr Hnflp ’Sam to r ontributc as jnucH as in 1950 to the general welfare He must contribute more than . in 1949 unless the Republican business men have more faith in the coun try and they themselves finance more new industries. Bursting The Balloon Of course there is a limit to all things. The present policy of going- into debt to keep up the national in come cannot continue forever. If ox ygen is continually pumped into the business balloon, it will finally burst from over-pressure. If only.the pres ent amount is put into the balloon each year, the balloon will slowly become smaller. Hence,. 1950 may be our best year for some time. This is why I am advising readers to get-out of debt during 1950. Nei ther jobs nor money will be as plen tiful in 1951 or 1952. Now is the time to save your umbrellas for the in evitable “rainy days”. Pay cash for what you buy during 1950. Give your employer the best you can dur ing 1950. Many careless workers will be laid off in 1951; you don’t want to be one of these. Increase your savings during 1950 as you may need to draw upon them in years which follow. Explain business cycles to your wife and children. Get them to co-operate with you in reducing your living costs. Beware Of Poiliticians Don’t let the politicians fool you. Most of them are not interested in your real welfare. They are inter ested only in getting re-elected. Moreover, the increase in salary which they voted themselves will make many of them in 1950 even rpore dangerous leaders than before. During these coming months too many of them will tell you anything to get re-elected. They will be giv ing yqp only temporary pain kil lers”. Don’t be fooled by their harm ful patent medicines. Your hope and mine depends upon us doing more work and spending our money more wisely. There is no short cut to prosperity. Sooner or later we will learn that these pol iticians have been giving us only dope instead of an honest spring tonic. We need medicine which will make us produce more, so that the prices can be reduced and false pros perity can be avoided. There is too much thought about getting free aid and too little about creating more goods. For prosperity to continue, after 1950 we must have more re ligion and fewer handouts. ■^P Before applying furniture polish i with a cloth, wet the cloth thorough- | ly with water and wring opt until it is left just damp. The fibers of the cloth absorb less of the polish and do a better polishing job. For cleaning bric-a-brac, book- tops, baseboards and other such hard-to-clean corners, an ordinary two-inch pain-t brush is the ideal tool. Brooms will give better service if they are kept clean. Whisk through warm, soapy water, then rinse well. Hang them to. dry so they ! I do not rub against a wall while do-, |ing so. j Using two gallons of hot water to i one-half cup of soap flakes is a good proportion for a cleaning solution for, linoleum-covered floors. The floors i ! should be rinsed, waxed and polished after the soapy cleaning. Plaster of Paris articles, when they ^become soiled, yield readily to clean ing if they are covered with wet j starch. Let dry, then brush off the ; starch. Dirt goes along with the i istarch. If window glass gets paint on it,] rub with a coin. Quarters or half j ; dollars are a convenient size to use. | Waxed, artificial flowers may be i cleaned by dipping several times in j cleaning fluid set* in a bowl, away I from fire or flame, ' - When you add blueing to water in 1 which glassware is washed the glass- I es attain brilliance and luster.
