Good News
From Winthrop
Encouraging news came from Winthrop.
the state’s College for Women, the other day,
when announcement was made that enroll
ment for the new term had reached the
higViest {»eak since the 1941-42 session.
Figures following the first day of enroll
ment showed that 1.628 students had regis
tered. an increase of 20.5 per cent over the
1959 registration.
Winthrop Follege has had some difficult
>ears sime 1‘*41-42. and the state owes a
debt of gratitude to former l*residenr Sims
for putting the college "on the road back"
lefore he relinquished the chief executive's
j«‘st last year.

Michigan Republican
Praises Southerners
Secretary of Commerce Frederick H.
Mueller, in an address within the past week
Itefore the Atlanta Rotary Club, said Ameri
ca owtv “eternal gratitude to the Southem
ouisenative statesmen in Congress.”
The Michigan Republican said Southem
Democrats in Congress have helped hold the
line against inflation.
"1 say to you and to the nation," said the
Secretary, "that the South is true to the
finest tradition of responsible government
when her independent leaders and people
refuse to join the radical pack in .their pell-
mell rush to debt and” inflation.”
Ami Secretary Mueller, better than al
most any other public figure, knows whereot
he si>eaks. For it 1 is in his own state of ATTeni-
gan that the Democratic radicals and labor
union losses have held sway for the past
twelve years under ’Governor Soapy Wil
liams. They have squeezed the economic life
blood from the state and exhibited an era
of-such irresponsible government that the
Mate has been brought to its knees financi

That is an example for all the nation to

Williams. Reuther. Stevenson, the Roosevelt

others who would make Jack Kennedy lYesi-

Th» State of Michigan has served a> a
proving ground for the welfare state and
th* results are there to be seen by all who
want to see.

What’s Wrong?
During the next Congressional session a
determined effort will l»e made to repeal
that sex ram <>f the Taft-Hartley Act which
authorized the state.s to'adopt right-to-wtirk
laws—laws which guarantee that a worker
can join or not join a union, as he so chooses,
without coercion from either labor or man
agement. So far. 2o states have adopted the
laws.
If the coming effort is successful, unre
strained lal»or monopolies will lie in the
saddle with a vengeance. Compulsory union
ism—wh.,h means that man must join or
st«.r\e — will become the rule. And this
would !*e only the beginning. Senator Byrd
of Virginia, iii announcing that he wxiuld
opjiose rejieal of the section “with all my
strength and ability.” said: "Power breeds
fiower. and labor leaders are insatiable in
their demands for special privilege and spe
cial legislation for immunity. Repeal . . .
would be followed by a drive to repeal all
protective provisions in the Taft-Hartley Act
and other statutes in the whole labor field.”
There’s nothing anti-labor or anti-union
in the right-to-wiork laws. All they do is to
assert the principle that each individual has
the right to decide for himself whether to
join or not. And we say, “There ain’t nothing
wrong with that.”
According to l". S. News & World Re-
l»ort. employers are finding that the cost of
fringe benefits is increasing at a faster rate
than wages. \ alue of these benefits was
about $30.3 billion in 1959, and will be al
most $4 billion larger this year.

Columbia—Planning the location
of another training school for men
tally retarded children in South 1
Carolina was recommended by Dr.
B O. Whitten, superintendent of
Whitten Village near Clinton.
Whitten told the committee on
mental health and institutions the
school should be located in the vi
cinity of Charleston so it could be
near the facilities of the State Medi
cal College. * *
Whitten Village is at capacity
now, he said, with a long waiting
list.
He also suggested that provision
be made at the new institution for
aphasics and emotionally-disturbed
children because Whitten Village
cannot accept them at the present
time.
Whitten said he realized the new
institution could not come “over
night,” but said plans for it should
be formulated now.
