Several Candidates
Spoke Here Thursday
I Thursday was Farmer's Day at the
Kershaw County Fair and the fair
association had invited all guberna
torial candidates here the speak.
A stand was erected on the foot
ball grounds for the speakers and
M. M. Jahnson, attorney and secre
tary of the Fair association, wa# in
charge of the program.
Rev. J. B. Canton was called upon
for a prayer.
Mr. Johnson then read letters of
regret from Olin Johnston, of Spar
tanburg; Tom B. Pearce, of Colum
bia, candidates for governor, regret
ting their inability to be present.
Mayor Robert M. Kennedy, Jr.,
then welcomed the distinguished vis
itors to Camden.
Judge M. L. Smith, in his usual
?able manner, introduced the speakers
in alphabetical order doing so by pre^
| senting Cole L. Blease, who served
1 this state two texms as its governor
and also as United States Senator.
Mr.' Blease stated he had no politi
cal speech to make*^ he was not
'yet ready to announce his platform.
Not until the adjournment of the
January legislature would he be rea
dy to take up any issues. He took
up his time in friendly greetings, to
those whom he had long hnown in
this county and reminiscences of oth
ers who had passed on, stating that
the people of Kershaw county should
be proud of their heritage, of the cit
izens of their county listed in South
Carolina's hall of fame.
Next Wyndam M. Manning, farmer
candidate of Sumter, spoke of his
business being farming. That both
farming and business would in the
years to come have to be worked
through "individual initiative." That
farmers and all others could not
much longer rely on help from Wash
ington, that this work would have
to be done in local communities. He
favored equalization of taxes.
James O. Sheppard, lieutenant gov
ernor, was the next speaker. He
stated he was no stranger in Camden
having spoken before Rotary meet
ings and other gatherings here.
Neither did he have any political
platform to announce at this time
but immediately after the adjourn
ment of the next legislature he would.
He said that the state ?was now on a
cash basis in the payment of school
teachems and looks for the nation to
get on a cash basis too. He favored
the reduction of the inheritance tax
in this state which would bring more
people - of wealth here to reside.
Congressman J. P. Richards was
also present and made a short talk.
He said that the paramount issue of
the day was the restoration of pros
perity and that those in Washing
ton had always the Welfare of the
people in their minds. " \
The speakers all paid the highest
tribute to Alvin C. York, who pre
ceded them on the repal of the 18th
amendment. While not agreeing
with him on the prohibition question,
they looked upon him as being a won
derful soldier.
! A. F. Spigner, able solicitor of the
i fifth judicial circuit, being seen in
I the assemblage by Judge Smith, was
; paid a high tribute for his ability in
upholding lnw in this' circuit and
; having the state's interest always at
, heart, to come up and say a few
i words, which he graciously did.
