Cor Owners Urged To Get Title Certifictftes Owners of motor vehicles cur rently registered in South Carolina may obtain certificates of title for their vehicles simply by completing an application form and mailing it, together with the 50 cents title fee, to the State Highway Department in Columbia. Chief Highway Commis sioner Claude R. McMillan said. Mr. McMillan strongly urged ve hicle owners to apply now for the certificates of title so as to com- i ply with state law and to avoid the ; Last-minute rush which is expected; to occur late this year. A 1967 acti of the 'General Assembly requires 1 that a certificate of title be issued by the department for every motor vehicle registered in the state by January 1, 1961. Vehicles for whkh no titles have been issued on that date will not be eligible for regis tration until a certificate has been issued. _ Marshall W. Abercrombie.

The New Farmers of America is the national organization of farm boys studying vocational agriculture in the public schools throughout the United States, Organised in Virginia in May. 1827, with a few chapters and members, ft has expanded until now it numbers 1,044 chapters and 46,596 active metnbfrs. The New Farmers of America is a non-profit organization which has for its purpose the dtevefopmeot of its members in their vocatinal, so cial and recreational life through established local chapters where vo cational agriculture is taught cate of title. Vehicles through the hands of dealers were included under a special eechoo of the title law which became effec tive two years ago. Numerous other vehicle owners have also obtained their titles during the pest two years, although not required to do so until the end of 1960. Highway department officials es timate that there are several thou sand vehicles operating in the state for whkh the titles have not yet been issued. They are, therefore, ad vising owners to file their appika- tkms now, since it wftl be impos sible for the department to issue that many certificates during the dosing weeks of the year. When preparing applications for certificates of title, vehicle own ers are urged to be sure all writ ing to plain, accurate and legible. The certificates are produced by a photographic process, winch means that any erors in the original appli cation will be reflected on the fin ished tide. House Members To ConstHute Majority Columbia—Two bills involving the lack of a senator from Laurens County were introduced Thursday in the General Assembly. One provides that in such event as the vacancy in the office of sena tor, a majority of the members in the House of Representatives would constitute a majority of the legis lative delegation. That majority would have the authority to approve the expenditure of funds, make ap- omtments and carry out all other acts which require the approval of a majority of the delegation, includ ing the senator. The other bill provides that upon the expiration of the terms of the present Laurens County magistrates their successors would serve for four years Both measures were proposed by the Laurens delegation in the House and placed on the calendar without reference to committee.

To repeal the Connally Amend ment would be like repealiag the Monroe Doctrine or other legal documents protecting the normal interest. Repeal wiH be an invita tion to the enemies of the United State's to engage in leral harass- ment of this country The rise of the Afro-Asian bloc! in the United Nations insures that the United States and its free world allies will have a very small voice in selecting future judges of the World Court. In all likelihood, the court will be made up of a Russian, a Czechoslovakian, a Khanaon. an Indian, a Cuban, and other judges with little or no desire to treat the United States with fairness In oaher words, the advocates of re peal ol the Connally -nendmrt* are urging that L>e so\ t -rninty of the Unueu States be subjected to men who dislike the American way of life. The World Court is a stack ed court, and one that is even more radical and bent on judicial tyranny than Earl Warren's court. Repeal would enable the World Court to interfere with race rela tions in the United States It would also enable the Court to order U. S. ships and Marines out of Guatana- mo Bay. Cuba, or demand cwn- itnued sugar subsidies. Repeal would open the way for Asians to insist that handsome inumgartMi quotas be opened to members of the yellow race. Indeed there a no limit to the amount of trouble-mak ing, or to the number of mvasMe! of national sovereignty that the Would Court would stir up Some of the advotes of repeal are perfectly open in expressing their hopes and wishes Waller Lippman, syndicated said recently that “we have an ie- terest that every property dispute as with Castro today, should be decided by a court, and not left to propaganda, coercion, and force ” .And what chance vroukl the U.
