MEN AND THINGS
By SPECTATOR ...
What is it worth to have a
great industry in your coun
ty? It gives employment to
hundreds of people; it means
quickened and increase bush
ness for all, from the banks
to the automobile workers; *t
means nsoney, money,
money; and that lifts the
level of living of hundreds
of people.
I’ve just noted that in Lex
ington County the South Caro
lina Electric and Gas Com
pany paid $677,377.19 in coup-
ty taxes. And think what
Colleton receives from the
electric plant at Canady^.
I think I’m right in say
ing that great company pays
jCpmpared with 11 minutes
last May. The jet train ap
peared to take longer to reach
higher speeds. Unofficially, it
took about five minutes to
reach over 130 miles per
hour ...”
How’s ^that for speed.’
That’s as fast as some tour
ists on Highway 301 coming
South. W r e are like the man
Who spoke of speed saying
“Here it comes, but before
he said it he added “I mean
there it goes.”

oped by the United States and the Federal Republic of Germany for production in
the 1970s. The U.S. Army reports it can outrun, outshoot and outmaneuver any
known tank while at the same time providing unprecedented crew protection. Pro
totypes of the MBT are being fabricated by the Allison Division of General Motors,
the U.S. contractor, at the Cleveland Army Tank-Automotive Plant. Representing the
Federal Republic of Germany is the German Development Corporation. Unique fea
tures of the vehicle which can fire missiles as well as conventional ammunition
include an air-conditioned capsule for the crew, a suspension system that can raise
gnd lower the vehicle front and back or tilt it from side to side to conform to
all types of terrain, a more powerful engine transmission combination, a more
accurate fire control system, and greatly improved armor protection. The vehicle
can be elevated for maximum mobility or lowered for maximum concealment.
