Columbia, S, May 18.?-George Hell 'Timmerman, of Hatesburg, keynote speaker at the Democratic state convention, asserted t<?<lay the American people are now, "and will continue, in revolt against existing conditions." "Twelve years of Republican misrule," ho said, "have convinced them thut they must look elsewhere ior for leadership, if the government and I the people are to be extricated from [the difficulties that threaten the financial stability of the government, i -Uwv economic recovery of the nation and the industrial rehabilitation of every class of business." Timmerman was elected t Mnporary chairman of the convention in a contest with H. W. Crouch, candidate of the farmers and taxpayers league. The voto was 202 1-2 to 144 1-2. His speech, a broadside against Republican rule, touched but briefly on state issues. "Local taxation," he said, "has become burdensome, and the people aro demanding relief. I am glad that our last legislature made a move in the right direction, although not far as some thought it wise to go. * * * "Our present economic difficulties did not come to us .overnight and they will not leave us so quickly." The speaker referred to the two Republican factions in the state. Af-j ter asserting "we are rapidly approaching the time" * * when the dominant political party is depending on the public treasurer to satisfy its political obligations" and citing the number of persons receiving support from the federal government, he said: "We see evidences of this condition in the existence of two Republican factions in this state, both of which are sthndingXby waiting for the distribution of-public patronage. One is the ?blacks and "whites, headed by Tolbert; and the other, the whites and blacks, headed by Hambright." Applause greeted the reference. Timmerman said that in the twelve years of Republican rule since the "brilliant and courageous Woodrow Wilson" surrendered the reigns of government, the people "have suffered more at the hands of the government than ever before during any like period since the birth of the nation." In his concluding remarks he said; "We may boast of our civilization, point with pride to our prowess and proclaim our resources, but of what avail is all this when life and property are menaced by the racketeer, when liberty is destroyed by jaw, when property has lost its value and when the pursuit of happiness is a chase without a hope. "However dark the picture may appear. I do not despair. The people are aroused; and I am convinced that, under consecrated and intelligent leadership, they will return to the faith of their fathers and establish this government on the fundamentals of its creation. * * "To the fulfillment of this great mission the Democratic party is, and ought to be pledged." , The speaker previously had expended his statement about the state government as follows: "1 am sure ij is the will of the j people and I have every confidence j that, with the close of Pur next gen-! eral assembly, South Carolina Will have a balanced budget, a workable plan for early retirement of the state deficit and a reduced ta-x levy on visible property." Mrs. William E. Borah, of Idaho, has invited President Hoover to go to Idaho for a hunt next fall.

Norman Schwarzdopf, superintendent of state police, announced today that John Hughes Curtis, one of the Nor-^ folk negotiators in the Lindbergh kidnap cose, had written "a complete confession" that all the people with whom he has told of negotiating and all the boats on which he said he met them were creations of his own imagination. .*) Col. Schwarzkopf's statement follows: "At four o'clock this morning John H. Curtis sat down to a typewriter and himself wrote a complete confession concerning his activities in the case. "He stated that the boats and all the people to whom he has been referring were creations of his own mind and do not exist in fact. "Shortly after the kidnaping Mr. Curtis told a story about having a contact with the kidnapers. A newspaper representative, according to Mr. Curtis' statement, made a very lucrative offer to him for his story to be given exclusively to that paper. Also, according to Mr. Curtis, a very lucrative offer was made by another newspaper and a film company concerning the activities. This spurred Mr. Curtis on to greater activity. "Mr. Curtis also said that Dean Peacock could have prevented his unfortunate part in this enprmous deception. Admiral* Hurrage merely presented to Col. Lindbergh the story as he had heard it, making no recommendations, but permitting it to stand on its merits. "Reputable citizens and officials frequently vouched to Col. Lindbergh ' for the integrity of Mr. Curtis, stating that his word could be relied on. This made the deception so much easier. The story of Mr. Curtis has resdlted in the very widespread activities of the coast guard and other federal agencies in seeking the fictitious boat he has described. "It has further resulted dn many official airplane trips, auto trips, as Well as keeping Col. Lindbergh away from home and activities during the most important phase of the case in pursuit of fictitious clues. "Four days ago, when Mr. Curtis came to these headquarters, the police authority at this point started questioning him and checking his story. The result of the check on his story and the questioning of Mr. Curtis was culminated at 4:00 o'clock this morning, with his complete confession that all the- information he had given was the result of his imag; ination and deception as well as his desire to make a good newspaper story that would bring lucrative returns, and^t'hat there was no fact or: foundation on which the story was built." After Col. Schwarzkopf issued 'his statement he was asked if any action had been taken against Curtis and replied that Curtis was not under arrest. Sheep Men Must ( Fight Parasite Clemson College, May 10.?Ninety I per cent of the sheep in South Carolina will show infestation of stomach worm, most destructive of all internal parasites affecting sheep, says L. V. Starkey, chief of animal husbandry , here, who advises that the most satisfactory control measure is frequent change of pasture. Stomach worm , damage, he states, is not generally appreciated because sheep may carry t large numbers of the worms and still live. Stressing the need for each sheep ?>wner to find out how heavily his flock may be infested, Pro. Starkey j enumerates the symptoms briefly: uTa Imu luuiiiiioii, wiih paie instead of pink ->ktn, indenting t?ck of I blood; pale membrane just under the .eyelids; a swelling under the jaw | sometimes in heavy investation. To .learn the degree of infestation ! Prof. Starkey suggests that samples '? fresh manure from at least three -deep be >ent to IP. \V. K. I a* wis. ' ~TTto vrtcrinariATi.

Duliant, Florence, i Changing pastures every two weeks jring summer is urged by Prof. Starkey to keep sheep fairly free f'om stomach worms. This means having not less than three pastures I available, and if fresh pasture is ! available for only a short time it I should be made use of in early ; spring while lambs are being fattened for market, for the parasites are more destructive to lambs than to ~iwes. It's hard to make some young men believe it, but it Is better to be square than to be a rounder.?Clinton Chronicle.

Plenty of eggs in the spring, plenty of sulphur in the eggs (if y9\?i silver forks turn black), and there you are, all ready for the summer. *b Rich nourishing eggs are manufactured by hens receiving well-balanced mashes such as the Purina people put up and Rhame Brothers sell. r * * . Those of us old enough to remember our first ice-cream as "frozen I custard" still cherish a warm spot in our hearts (?) waiting to be cooled by it. Custard boiled with plenty of fat eggs, rich milk, sugar, vanilla, skill and tasting; cooled while you get ten cents' worth of icc^extra from the J no. M. Villepigue Ice Company and find a place to put it. Plenty of newspapers spread about, the mildewed salt tub with a broken spoon, a eroker sack and axe, another tub for cracked ice, everything scalded and cooled, the creamy stuff plopplopped into the can, three or four parts of ice to one of salt, a few groans as stiff knees go down, adjustments and the slow and steady creak-creak that spells after-dinner bliss. Years and years of waiting while it is "packed" with more ice and salt, and things are cleared away ?but when it is ripe?like our crown in heaven?all the trouble and muss and tears and sighs and waiting and toil and expectations are forgotten in the joys of fulfillment. (And when it's home made ice cream, that means full fill ment.) ? * * Making it isn't half so bad as history and having bread pudding instead have made it.

Ad To Appear Next Week The Chronicle was scheduled to carry a half page ad in this issue advertising Kelvinators but the cut failed to arrive in time. Readers are asked to be on the lookout for this ad, due J to appear in next week's paper.
