- *4- r / — Pape Two THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Thursday, November 23, 19 COMMENT ON MEN AND THINGS By Thr Sprotator Tnc General election should be satisfactory to us in South Carolina. It spanked Mr. Truman and it main tained the chairmanships .of Southern leaders, including our Senators May- bank and Johnston; and it advanced them, as well as our Representatives, in postion excepting oirr two new men. Congressmen John Riley and tV Tian Jennings Bryan Dom. The new men will he ei'iective, however, tar they know their way around Washington. As an American I applaud the State of Ohio for re-electing Senator Robert A. Taft. This great nation needs men of character, intelligence and courage in places of leadership. There are just a few such men in Congress; so ax' may rejoice that all What a Christmas pift a new \orpe Self Defrosting Refriger ator would make!

If any man’s partisanship, his loyalty to a label, makes him wish Mr. Taft's Trumanite opponent had been elec ted he is forgetting America, or put ting the sound policy of the nation under a cloud in order to support Mr. Truman. We South Carolinians are tried and true Democrats of the Woodrow Wilson and Thomas Jefferson prin ciple. Although Mr. Wilson and Mr. Jefferson were not South Carolinians we have always been double-first- cousins to the Virginians. Frankly, I don’t know how I “fig ured that out,” but let it go. We have had South Carolinians who rose above party, who dared oppose the President even when he was of their | own party. By the way, we still have 1 in the Senate and m ‘■’"C House men who do not get on their knees to the President, although he is called a “Democrat”. A careful study of Mr. Truman leaves me in complete won derment as to just what is a “Dem ocrat”, if he is a Democrat. Nobody knows what principle guides our De mocracy when we look over tne members of the Courts, the vast bu reaucracy, and the Socialists and Communists who control the Na tion. There is no principle, but there is a policy, and that policy is to pro mise everything and do anything that will make votes. Men of middle age may well look to the future and try to foresee what thu> country will be when their sons | and grandsons take charge, or are taken in charge Wc have for years seen robbing the future to enrich the , present. Every bond issue is a mort- • * igc on your son’s life and work How we pile it on! when principles were guiding men. They were not men of small stature; they were men of national vision, men of wisdom, men of courage. John C. Calhoun opposed President Andrew Jackson and fought to ex tend the charter or The Bank of the United States; so did George Mc Duffie, then chairman of the Ways and Means committee of the House. Those men were statesmen, not merely party hacks. Society...

If you think this is idle specula- j tion on my part let me tell you of ' an experience. I was a bureaucrat, i head of a big service, almost totali- I tarian. I had great respect for my chief, the President. He was a lov- i able man, a great man, and the most ! considerate man I’ve ever known; but he ruled with virtually unchal lenged sway. Once I said to him, “Dr. A President of B College tells me that the Supreme court is likely 50 much fashion news.in Artemis lingeriek Throughout the receiving rooms of the home chrysanthemums, roses and other fall arrangements were at tractive.
