Greenville Paper Defies Court Order Greenville, March 21,?A fight for the freedom of the press was launched here today by the Greenville News and the Greenville Piedmont. Attorneys for the two newspapers prepared to argue a motion before Judge M. M. Mann in general sessions court for a revocation of the judge's order forbidding publication [in the newspapers of a portion of the grand jury's presentment dealing i with the case of Sheriff Cliff R. Bramlejf, of Greenville c o u n t y, charged with official misconduct. Until and unless Judge Mann revokes his ruling, executives of the! Greenville newspapers declared, both publications will adhere to the original ruling. The motion was to have been heard this morning, but was delayed because of the absence from Greenville of-'ono of Sheriff Bramlett's attorneys. Despite the court's order, The Greenville Observer, a weekly newspaper edited by George R. Koester, I, printed the presentment in full. Judge Mann today had taken no' action against the weekly. An accompanying statement said,| in part J "In obedience to a clear conviction J of its duty in the premises, the Ob-j server is giving to the people of Greenville county the presentment of their grand jury and the record of proceedings by which it was sought^ to keep them from knowing what was in that presentment without go-, ing to the court house to wait in line I for a chance to read it. "Judge Mann violated the terms of: his own Order for 'Suppression of1 publication' of the presentment and. proceedings in reference thereto when^ he ordered its publication as an openj record in the office of the clerk of j, court. Its being put in type and; printed is no more publication than; is the filing of it as an'open re-1 cord. * * * , ? "After full deliberation, in re-, sponse to the public demand and on the assurance of eminent lawyers that it is well within its rights, The Observer gives its readers that to^ which they are entitled." Mrs. Partridge's Hunter Wins Summerville, 'March 19.~Natufe'a I>?rling, chestnut mare, owned and ridden by Miss Emily Ravenel of Charleston, was judged champion of Summerville's annual horse show today. Miller, a sorrel gelding, owned by Mrs. Dwight Partridge of Great Barrington, Mass., and Camden, was awarded the hunter championship. For the first time, the hunter events were run off over difficult outside course and were elevated to feature positions on the program. It was the finest collection of jumpers ever assembled at Summerville. The jumping \yus superb and stirred big crowds at the Slated plantation' grounds. Nature's Darling is by King Edward out of PDare. The mare, which will be five years old in June, qualified for championship class by winning the three-gaited saddle class over a choice field. She was splendidly ridden by Miss Ravenel. Mrs. W. Edwin Russ's Patsy Pruitt, a bay mare, won the five-gaited saddie horse class, with her owner up. I Inspector Killed As Plane Crashes Columbia, March SO.?Garland S. Douglas, of Chesterfield, an inspector , of the State Highway Department; was instantly killed this afternoon j when his airplane plunged to earth short distance from the municipal airport. Witnesses said Douglas apparently was approaching for a landing when the plane plunged from a j height of about 200 feet. He was unaccompanied. Coroner W. A. McCain, who investigated the accident, said an inquest was not necessary. Douglas received his flying license March 11 and had but 17 solo hours to his credit. In his pocket was found a newspaper clipping quoting an English aviator as saying that a flyer had little to fear after completing 20 hours of solo work. * Death of Mr. Strak Lewis C. Strak, aged 47, died at J the home of his mother on south Lyt tleton street Saturday afternoon at 7 o'clock. Mr. Strak had only been sick for a few days. Mr. Strak was a native of Camden but for a nuntber of years had made his home in Colupibia where for 25 years he has served as a conductor on the Charleston division of the Southern railway. He was n Shriher and member of several railway organizations. While his work took him away from Camden for a number of years he was pleasantly remembered by many of our people who regret his: passing away. Mr. Strak is survived by his aged mother, Mrs. Ellen Strak, who is nearing 83 years; also two brothers, Joseph Strak and Steve Strak, both in the employ of the Southern railway. One sister, Mrs. Dick Brasington, of Camden, also survives. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock with Rev. John T. Litilejohn in charge. The interment was in the Camden cemetery.

Cotton Ginnings in County - There were 22,701 bales of cotton ginned in Kershaw county from the crop of 1931 as compared with 21,928 bales from the crop of 1930, according to Robert K. Tompkins, ape"ial agent for Kershaw county. For , the state 1,010,325 in 1931, as compared to 1,015,278 in 1080. Seed Loans In Kershaw County , ,1 Marty of the people of Kershaw county will 'no doubt take the seed loan business and the work of conducting same in Kershaw county as a matter of fact, especially since we have participated in this fund for 4 years. It should be borne in mind, however, that when g citizen of Kershaw county has obtained one of J^ese loahs it is the result of a lot of hard work on tho part of a few people and in this' connection your county agent thought that it would bo appreciated by our people to give duo recognition to those wl\o are rendering so valuable a service for such a needed cause, and at a time when it is imperative that this money be disbursed amoi\g our people. Therefore, let us not forget to thank our local committeemen and county committee especially, artd # number of others who have contributed to tho success of this seed loan program in our county this year. These committeemen have worked tirelessly, not for the little glory or publicity that might be in it but for _ the reason of rendering service to our people at a time when it is most | needed. Many of the men on these 1 committees have had to neglect their business a great deal. They have taken up hour after hour in helping make out applications and in other ways assisting applicants to borrow this mdney which in most cases is the only source of financial aid for them this year. Also wo should hot overlook) the fact that our government and our national representatives from South Carolina have contributed largely in making this a possibility. Practically every day for the last ten or twelve days- some of our committeemen have labored far into the night completing application blanks and sending them to Washington. In all there are thirty-eight com- ' mitteeiuen over the county who have had part in making the seed loan program _.a success this year and while there have been a few misunderstandings due to the limited number of blanks that came in at first I feel that on the whole the administration of this business has been exceptionally successful and satisfactory this year. The committeemen are as follows: ' County or Central Committeemen Jack Whitaker, Jr., L. O. Funderburk, M. M. Johnson, Camden. Liberty Hill?R- C. Jones, L. P.. Thompson, J. G. Richards. , Blaney?J.

Put Over By Newspaper Advertising The Monticello Drug company, of Jacksonville, FTa., writes The Chronicle as follows: "The 000 Salve contest recently conducted owes most of its success to newspaper advertising. No radio or bill boards were used in this campaign. This contest was of national scope and thousands of entries were received from every state in the union." The total paid the winners was $5,000. Mrs' Sarah M. Marsh, residing on route two, Camden, was the only one in this county. She was one of one hundred who received. $5.00. Alton Theodore, of Charleston. won $25.00; Bertram Robinson, of Spartanburg, won $25.00; Mrs. L. L. Morgan, of Aiken, won $1(^?0; Mrs. R. H. Boulware, of Rock Hill, won $10.00. First prize winner of $500.00 was Mrs. Helen E. Savage, o Jancsville, Ohio.
