"The Board of Directors of The Enterprise
Building and ix>an Association
of Lamden, accepts with very
( great appreciation the portrait of Mr.
A D. Kennedy, presented to the Association.
"L"ruler the control of Mr. Kennedy,
as us President for a generation, this
Association grew steadily, not only
in financial strength, but in usefulness
to the commumts and in the
confidence arid regard of the people
until it became recognized ad one of
the most stable and important institutions
of the city.
"Mr. Kennedy's able management
of this Association, his active interest
in ail public matters, his- earnest desire
to extend aid to all worthy residents
of the community in the purchase
of homes, and his almost
fatherly forbejy"unce to those in
temporary straits, not only enabled
this Association to extend its help
and influence throughout this community,
and to contribute largely to
its growth, but endeared the Association
to its members and to the
public generally until it occupies u
unique place in the social and business
life of ,\his section.
"As the Board of Directors of the
Association, many of whom have
servi-d long with Mr. Kennedy, in
the direction and control of the Association,
who know better than any
others can know, of the care and constant
attention given by him so unstintedly
and effectively, we would
bear this tribute to Mr. Kennedy's
value to this Association and to the
community.
"We accept his portrait with
thanks and appreciation, and have
hung the same in the office of the
Association, having inscribed on the
back thereof the following:
"Alexander Dalton Kennedy, C. S. A.
Born at Camden, S. C., Dec. 30, 1H47.
Died July 10, 1022.

And so disposed to say

That Heaven with love abrim

Peace Protests Libel /
. Lou) In This State
Havana. Tuba, April 20.?Speaking
I to members of Ike South Carolina
! I*re*# association, en route to Cuba.
B. 11. Peace, GreenviUe publiaher and
(president of the South Carolina Press
, association. declared the present Hbel
j laws of the state bring the conclusion
j that "the legislators of South Caro[
hnu brheve their newspapers are leas
to be trusted than the newspapers of
North Carolina and other states."
"This," he continued, "is a reflection
on the newspa|>ers of South
Carolina and on the men who conduct
them. 1 do not believe there is to
be found anywhere in the United
States a more loyal, honorable and
trustworthy set of men than those
who conduct the newspapers of South
Carolina.
"They labor unceasingly for the
upbuilding of the state, but when
they go to the legislature and ask relief
from obsolete and tyrannical libel
lave* which make a mockery of the
expressions, 'freedom of the press,'
they get no more consideration than
if the> were predatory beasts of prey
bent upon trampling the state under
their feet."
Mr. Peace in opening his address
had congratulated the North Carolinans
accompanying the South Carolina
delegation, on the libel laws- in
their state and pointed out to them
that South Carolina "has twice re-fused
to enact libel laws almost
identical with those %of North Carolina
and other enlightened Htates."
Further, he declared:
"The past year has been a greater
focusing of national attention upoa
the south then ever before. South
Carolina has had a picture in this
scene. More people are reading our
papers every day. They are learning
things about the state they did not
know before. They are assisting the
newspapers in spreading South Carolina's
virtues to the outside world.
"The deadly virus of complacency
constantly threatens us, however.
We may as well realize that compared
to some other states, we have
made very little progress. We need
population. We need to encourage
intelligent and energetic outsiders to
come to our state. We need human
competition. Of the 880<^)00 white
people in our state, less than 100,000
were born outside the state. We are
too self-contained in the matter of
population and ought to do everything
possible to encourage the right
kind of people to come and live with
us."
Mill Men Advertise \
New Efficiency Plan 1
Greenville, April 23.?The Cotton 1
Manufacturers' Association of South
Carolina, of which T. M. Marchant, of
Greenville, is president, will use daily '
and weekly newspapers of the state
fvr an extensive advertising campaign,
defending the "extended" system of J
operation in cotton mills.
This system has been responsible
for recent strikes in textile plants of
the state.
The advertising schedule is to
start thi- week. The copy consists i
of carefully worded explanations of
the reasons for adoption of the "extended*
operating system, and seeks
to point out the advantages of such 1
a plan to the operatives. Comment
is made that the new system
dignities skilled cotton mill labor, increases
the earning power of skilled
workers, and at the same time increases
production in the mills. Tflv
conclusion reached by the manufacturers
is that "the fundamental
P'iHV'?Uv? Ctf 6XtGfided labo r are correct
wr.en properly applied."
The cotton manufacturers, according
to officials, hope by advertisements
to present to the operatives,
and to the public generally, the true
nature of the "extended" operating
system as appraised by the cotton
mill men.
Meanwhile, existing strikes in cotton
mills in this section, which have
been in progress for more than three
week.-, continue with no immediate
known prospects for settlement. Four
plants of Brandon corporation, three
in Greenville and One at Woodruff,
are still idle. Operatives are still
anxious to settle their differences
' with the mill management without
interference from labor organizers.
, At Brandon mill, the largest in the
Brandon chain, the following notice
was posted prominently in the mill
village

Press People Enjoy j
" Cuban Hospitality j
Havana, April 20.?-Entertainment,
of a varied nature haa been provided
for members of South Carolina Press
party since their arrival. A visit to
night clubs of Havana and a luncheon
today by Havana reporters club being
features. At this luncheon at Hotel
Plazn. 11. H. Pence responded telling
of the good will which exists be- j
tween Cuba and the United States
and also of the progress which has
been made on the island. That the
Cuban president is soon to be in-1
augurated for another term of six!
years is proof positive he said, that j
the affairs of the island are in good
hands. Harold Booker and'otnei's1
also spoke briefly. I
Cubit has but two sources of income
as the Carolinians have already
learned. They are tourists
and sugar. The sugar crop ia about
five million tons annually and along
with tobacco constitutes Cuba's chief
crop. The entertainment of tourists,
most of them from United States is
also a big source of income. Havana
is said to be the gayest city in the
world and the Cubans are striving I
hard to maintain this reputation. j
Cuba as a nation is now deeply con- i
cerned over the proposed tariff on I
sugar on the part of the United)
States. If this is imposed it will
mean the near financial ruin of Cuba
the press party members are tOld on
every side. Members of the party
intend visiting various churches tomorrow
and otherwise enjoying a
quiet day. Monday, a busy time has
been planned while they sail for
Tampa early Tuesday.
Havana, April 22.? Drinking to
the brim of Cuban hospitality, members
of the Carolines' press party
this afternoon climaxed their stay in
Havana with a trip through the
white house of the republic, meeting
Dr. Ricardo Herrera, personal secretary
to President Machado and
others high in national life. Only an
unexpected delay in returning from
Mariel 36 miles, distant prevented
them from meeting the president as
had been scheduled. President Machado
however, waited until 5:30 o'clock
and then was forced to fill an engagement
elsewhere much to the regret
of members of the party.
The trip through the Cuban white
house however was delightful and
proved the climax of four days of
pleasing living. Today the Carolinians
were guests of honor at a I
luncheon itt Mariel, seeing the largest
cement factory on the island which is
owned by American capital but employing
500 Cubans.
A typical Cuban meal with all the
easily guessed accessories was served
much to the delight of all in the
party.
Pi esident B. H. Peace again responded
on behalf, of the visitors
while Martinez Ybor, assistant secretary
of state, spoke in behalf of
the Cuban government as did H. B.
White of the cement company and
the president of the Reporters Club
of Cuba.
Tonight the Carolinians had nothing.
scheduled, each being left free to
make his or her own plans. Visits
to cabarets, shops and other places
of interest were to be made. The
press members sail for home at 10
o'clock Tuesday morning. Julia
Peterkin, South Carolina's distin-.
guished author, is a member of the
press party and has come in for much
publicity, her fame having extended
to the island long before her arrival
here.
