THE CLINTON CHRONICLE
When Dr. Martin Luther's name
is mentioned, most people think at
once of his great Reformation
hymn. *‘A Mighty Fortress Is Our
tied "
Few. however are aware that
«e also wrote the beautiful Chris,
mas lullaby. M Away In A Manger.'*
so familiar to children of the church
throughout the world
Some hymlsta contend that Dr
Luther's authorship of the cradle
hymn has not been fully proved but
in moot W today's mush

Christmas morning programs in
Sunday schools of the world could
never manage without the “little
Lord Jesus’* song Its verses and
music are as familiar to most boys
and girls as are many of their fa
vonle Bible passages and stones.
Dr Luther wrote another less fa
miliar Christmas hymn for his little
so. Hans when the lad was five
years old Composed m IMS the lat
ter hymn wan sung through the cen
turies each Christmas morning at
daybreak by singers standing is the
dome of the “Kroua Kirrhe*' la
IV most popular translation of
this hymn was made by Miss Cath
erine Wink worth, English poetess
Its music, written in 1539, has sur-
1 vived for twentieth century use
Here are the opening stanzas
Glad news from Heaven the angels
bring.
Glad Uduigs to the earth they stag.
To us this day a child Is given
To crown us with the jay of Hen
This is the Christ.

uig to raise mors revenue, we will
come nearer to keeping within our
tax income.
It is bad business to run into a
deficit The case appears to be quite
clear: Either find, more income or
confine expenditures to the income
in sight.”
The state must practice the same
economy or thrift so often suggested
as proper for sn individual. It is
still true that moat of the money
spent is not contributed either by
those crying for more expenditure
or by those who think gold can be
found in the enactments of the leg
islature or the congress
I venture the statement that th^
most underpaid men (and women)
in the state are those of the state
and county newspapers But most
of them continue on relatively mea-
pay and don't proclaim their
needs from the housetops. I can't
speak for my radio friends because
all dress so well and look so pros
perous and handsome that they
seem to thrive on gobd service
My journalistic friends continue
because they love the work Are they
the only ones who labor—and wait’

My friend, Mr. John B Snow of
St. Helena Island, calls my atten
tion to some suggested principles of
government which cry for consid
eration and application This has
been published as a “Platform for
Patriotic Americans ” We have mil
lions of patriotic Americans but
thye are confused by personalities,
by false promises, by misleading
publications, by vociferous and
mendacious orators and by the be
wildering complexity of vast gov
ernment issues
Some of these are urgent:
“STATES RIGHTS There must
be returned to the States, or to Un
people, the rights, privileges, du
ties and responsibilities which have
been usurped by the federal govern
ment
LABOR The Anti-Trust Laws
must be applied equally to all mo
nopolies whether of business or of
labor Every individual's nght to
join or not to join a labor union
without affecting his employment
and his nght to work for an empkiy
er willing to hire him the nght of
employees and employer* to bargain
and coot rad as they wish, and the
right of an employee to quit ohm

of violence and coercion, secondary

TAXATION. Following the course
prescribed by Karl Marx in his
Communist Manifesto outlining the
means to b^p used in destroying the
private capitalistic system, our Fed
eral Government imposes heavy
progressive income, death and gift
taxes At the very least the heavy
progressive rate features of our in
come tax laws can and must be
eliminated without impairing the
power of Congress to raise needed
revenue, and the States must be
gvien the exclusive right to impose
death and gift taxes Such a change
in oup taxlaws would over the years
increase the wealth of the people,
assist greatly in saving our free en
terprise system, help free the states
and the people from federal domi
nation, and aid in preserving our
system of constitutional govern
ment. To make these changes endur

Ruing coots present hospitals with
a formidable problem Daily per-
patient costs in non profit hospitals
the variety most familiar to Ameri
cans—climbed to an average of
$26.81 in 1957 from $10.04 in 1946.
according to the American Hospital
Association.
Labor costs, which according to
the AHA, represent close to 70 cents
of every operating cost dollar, have
accounted for much of the increase.
For instance, general duty nurses
in metropolitan areas, who made an
average of $36 for a 48-hour week
in 1946, were paid $64.50 for some
40 hours in 1956, accordnig to the
National League for Nursing, head
quartered in New York. And there
have been sizeable increases since
then, hospital officials say.
Hospital labor rates have climb
ed faster than industrial labor,
mainly because thye have tradition
ally lagged and thus had further to
go, says one hospital official
In addition to paying rising wag
es, hospitals have had to boost the
number of employees per. patient

pitals employed 218 people per 100
