Indians Hard Hit Turn To Pottery Rock Hill, Aug. It.?Appeals made at various times to their "Great White Father" having failod Catawba Indians on the reservation near Rock H(ll turned more than ever to prac"Vtk'e of their ancient craft, pottery ' making, a/? a means of support. . Such is the word of T. O. Flowers, agent for the Indians, who reports 185 in the nation living in the 16 or so habitable homes on the reservation. The present population is the J ' greatest since 1017 when influenza thinned tho tribe mightily. Need of outside aid as a means of eps'* ai support is evident from these Hgures ! supplied by the agent. The 11)32 ap-' propriation for the Indians by the South Carolina general assembly whs $8,600 which included the amounts set asido for the school, tho old folk fund, medical attention and funerals. The remainder was divided among the 1 Indians, each receiving $33.05. A few find work in textile plants) and other similar ways of oarnlng j u livelihood. iSomo make patches of corn, but the majority, said the a?ent, are now compelled to depend largely on tho pittance returnod from the ; sale of pottery. Visitors from many sections of the country to tho reservation have observed the Indian women.making pottery in their shacks snd have noted the need, of a .community house where the, work could be done with a proper place for'burning the clay. Present methods have not departed from that of the forefathers of tho Red man. The clay is dug from the banks of! Catawba river near the reservation and fashioned by hands into tho desired shape. Then into the lire placo where meals are also prepared, the vessels go to be burned. Hard times have lessened not only j the opportunities for the Indians to obtain work but have in a large measure wU<? removed a market for tho: pottery. The agent explained that the Ca- j tawha tribe members are wards of j the State of South Carolina by reason! of their surrender to the state. All other tribes in this section of the country, he explained, surrendered to! the federal government and consequently are wards of Uncle Sam. Ho said attempts by the Catawba Indians to receive federal government nid have always failed. j Of the 40 or more huts on the reservation, the agent stated, not more than 15 or perhaps a score can be U*ed, the others having deteriorated almost beyond repair and at any rate the Indians have not the means to make thewrepairs. Seven are known j to oat, sleep and live in a single room. "They have no money to repair their homes, no stock or tools to work a crop, and cannot own a foot of land because they ure wards of tho state," Agent Flowers said. Despite the condition in which they live, the Indians send their children to tho school on the reservation where 1 surprising progress is made. One j man is in charge' of the-school, aj nino-grude system, and one of the. older students, a daughter of Chief S. T. Blue, aids the teacher. Forty' two pupils were enrolled Inst session. Tho schorff operates nine months. The school house and the Mormon j temple, the latter erected for the Indians by tho Mormon church, are tire two most presentable buildings on the reservation which includes 052 acres. Chief HIue, who with two "head men" govern the tribe, officiates at all religious occasions including funerals as well. With the three members of the V governing group,' Agent Flowers set tie* all disputes arising1 among the Indians, 'whom he described as a peaceful tribe. Mr. Flowers reports the health of the Indians the besj in several years which accounts for the increase in the population. Under present arrangements medical attention can be secured for the Indians at short nobice. And the jpnce powerful Catawba tribe is in evidence now only when groups peddle their wares at fairs or in the towns and cities near the reservation. Visitors to tho reservation prove good prospects for the pottery saleswomen. Carl Payne, do, of Maybeury, W. Va., had a pain in his left sid?.

(From The Yorkville Enquirer) This is a stock question fire<l at political gatherings by candidates who are . seeking political office, regarding the incumbent, and it has been fired . at suc h gatherings by young Mr. Richards of Lancaster, who seeks the seat in congress now occupied by Hon. William If. Stevenson. Primarily it is used for no other purpose than U> confuse the electorate, which, and on the ?pur of the moment perhaps thinks of little that the incumbent has accomplished during his holding of the office tor whicn he i> a.-king re-election. But :L is an empty question, a trick question and one that usually means little. f It is not difficult to cite many ot the things that Mr. Stevenson has (lone lor his district during Ins term of service, and also it is easy to c iy some of the things he has stood for for the welfare of the country at large. Here are some of them: He has been a member of congress since IP 17. succeeding Hon. Paul G. McCorklc, who served the unexpired term of the late Hon. D. K. Finley. lie became a member of congress just before the United States declared war on Germany and uring the conduct of that sanguine conflict, in so far as this country was concerned,'he gave his loyal support to the policies of the late President Wilson. And since the close of the \\ orld war he has given of his time and efforts to securing for the World war veterans every benefit that it is possible for thorn to secure. He has helped scores of those veterans to.receive the ho>pitili/ation to whi.cn tin > were .entitled under the laws ot the land, and has helped them to get this setvice after all other apparent avenue - of aid had been closed to them., He has helped many of these .-oldicrs jn securing the compensations that they are entitled to and continues ti? take the same keen interest in these men today that he has taken all along. Mr. Stevenson has consistently advocated payment of the soldier's bonus claims. Mr. Stevenson has been particularly energetic in securing for the- ruial mail routes and carriers of his district every possible aid to which they were and are entitled. Ho has given lus district every possible improvement. in mail facilities, many of them they would not have gotten except for his energy in going after these aids and improvements. He has obtained for the rural mail carriers certain Federal moneys set aside for the improvement of postroads when matched by like funds from the counties through which such post roads pass and form part of the rural mail routes and thus gave others good roads to use. He. with the aid of Hon. A. L. Bulwinkle of North Carolina, succeeded in having a commission appointed for the purpose of making a survey of the Kings Mountain battlefield to the end that this historic battleground in | York county might he made a national 111.111ai.v lie was aided in thi< by Major Hulwinkle just as was the late Mr. Finley aided by the H- n.

Stesenson -h u' i be giver, 'the credit for securing the money to j build that monument on the Cowpens battlefield. Mr. Stevenson, since becoming a j member of congress has gotten for his district and South Carolina every benefit ftom the Federal government ! that it has been possible for him to I get. He has been instrumental in seI curing ^Federal buildings at Rock Hill. I Lancaster, ami Choraw, and other j Federal buildings thHt are to be erected in the near future should be 1 credited to his?efforts. What has he done? During his nearly sixteen years in congress he has risen from the point of being a : beginner until today he is one of the I leading Democrats of the lower house of congress. He has the respect and confidence 'of every member of the house from this state, and he has the confidence and respect of every member of the house, both Democrats and Republicans, because they recognize in him a man of more than ordinary ability, one who does not stoop to small politics and trickery to secure what he wants done; but who is spec ted because of his superior abillity as a legislator and lawyer con1vorsanl with the legal phases of practically all legal questions involved in ! making laws lor the best welfare of ithe nation. lie i> a member of the powerful 'Hanking and Currency committee, (which has to do with framing the financial laws and policies of congress. He is recognized by his colleagues a> jan outstanding authority 011 legal matters appertaining to financial legI islatiun. He it was who helped ih ; the framing of the laws tounding the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and the Home Hand hank provisions of thhC department of the government, and he it was who saw to it that the benefits of the Home Loan | bank were to be secured to the sm^ll 'and individual home owner through i Building and Loan associations and I kept the big banks, trust companies anil insurance companies restricted so that these big corporations could not gobble up the control of these home banks to their own benefit rather than for the benefit of the small borrowers for home building. He is a member of the Printing I Committee of the house, and the (Joint Committee on Printing of the I two houses, and incidentally us chairman of the house committee has be? n instrumental in reducing the cost- ! government printing several hundred , thousand dollars a vyear with the a.J ami cooperation ol the other members of the committee. Congressman Stevenson is an ou.(standing lighter for real economy n spending the money of the taxpayeis, I in this day, when most of us consider that the most important matter before congress and all legislatures. When some other congressmen were grabbing'all they could get from the public treasury, Mr. Stevenson told a committee that there is no urgent need for certain postofTice buildings and the like, in his district, and the cost of them might well await better times. This is true of the Yorkville postolFice, and all the others, and Congressman Stevenson stood high as a statesman when he subordinated votes for himself in the election to the pocket books of all taxpayers. Though Mr. Stevenson has been a member of congress for nearly sixteen years, he has never had any members of his family on his payroll as clerks, secretaries or otherwise, and neither has there ever been a single breath aimed at him that has been based on the slightest suspicion .of any scandal in his official or pri| vate life. j Mr. Stevenson as a member of the 1 lower* house of congress has conducti <"d himself with such signal ahiktv ; as to gain not only the respect of ithe Republican members of that body, but has the respect and the endor-enu nt of Speaker Carrier, now \. epr? -:d? ni .a 1 eandidate; Mr. Slcgall, airman ! the Banking and r\ : i: in r.'i.

Mr. Stevenson wil". : ,.ve the hacking of the South ( ar ia , lie legation lor the speakership. Not the least .that Mr. Sieve-.-on has done while in congress is that he ; has always stood for the sanctity of (the LSth amendment on the pr<-h.oi' tion question and stands for it today, Sand only a few months ago was a mong the majority voting to prevent - measures looking to the changing of i the amendment and the opening wide of the gates that will allow the !e, gnlized sale of wines, beers and li quors in the United -States. These are only some of the things that Mr. Stevenson has done since he i has been a- member of congress and i are indicative of the things he will i do when he is re-elected for another , term on August 30th by the Demo rratic voters of the Fifth congressionr al district who appreciate ability and 1 faithfulness to his constituency.
