in winter as in summer. It completely
eliminates dust, dirt, smoke and
greatly reduces noise. It changes the
air in the cars every few minutes,
bringing into them a flow of pure air
and taking out impuro air. No matter
what the temperature may be on
the outside, whether hot or cold, inside
the air conditioned Orange Blossom
Special will always be fresh,
pure, without humidity and of the
correct temperature for health and
comfort.
Passengers to.and from Florida by,
using the Orange Blossom Special will
experience the June-like weather
which prevails there during the winter
season. They will travel on one
of - the finest and most completely
equipped trains in the world. Frpsh

Venice, West Lake Wales (Mountain
Lake), Sebring and other principal
Florida resorts on both coasts and in
central Florida, passengers arriving
at their destinations will not experience
the fatigue generally occasioned
by a journey of such length "but will
I be thoroughly rested, fresh and clean.
Never before has the tourist visiting
Florida been able to have the
benefit of such modern service provided
at such a low cost. There will
be no extra fare, no surcharge and
[great reductions in one-way and
| round trip rates. Season tickets,
thirty-day tickets and fifteen-day
tickets will be sold this winter season
from all points to all of the resorts
in the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida
at very low rates. Passengers will

Indications pomt to the largest

and accessibility from the north make
a vacation in Florida or other Southern
resorts far less expensive than a
trip to California. Revolutions in
Cuba and deflation of the dollar make
a trip to foreign resorts so costly
that people seeking a vacation will
undoubtedly go South this winter.

A1 Smith Breaks
With Roosevelt
; New York, Nov. 21.-, Alfred K.
,; nvith broke openly today with President
kooseveh's monetary program,
dec Earing he was for sound money
and a return to the gold standard.
, 1 am for gold dollars as against
'oloney dollars/' said the former governor
in an editorial to be published
l\X the December issue of the New
t hit look,.
1 am lor experience as against experiment.
If 1 must choose between
private management of business and
management ol' a government bureaucracy,
I am for .private management.
l! 1 must choose between the
leaders of t he past, with'till the errors
they have made and with all the selfishness
they have been guilty of, and
the inexperienced young college professors
who hold no responsible public
office but are perfectly ready to
turn 130,000,000 Americans into
guinea pigs for experimentation, 1
rtjjt going to be for the people who
have made the country what it is,
"And 1 say this with full knowledge
of the fact that there are many
things in tho old order of society
which I should like to have changed
and which I dp not applaud or even
condone."
Portions of Smith's editorial were
made public at the office of the New
Ontl'dok. The former govornor, who
recently was a guest at tea at tho
White House, was not present.
The appearance of the statement
created a sensation in New York,
with afternoon papers displaying it
under large headlines. Smith was
not in his office, and attendants
there declined to say. where ho Cbuld
be located.
The statement expressed Smith's
personal disbelief that "tho Democratic
party Is fated to he always the
party of groonbackers, paper tynoney
printers, free silverites, currency
managers, rubber dollar manufacturers
and crackpots."
"If so, the issue is more than {i
partisan one," Smith continue^, "because
we are dealing today with the
party which actually holds responsible
government office, which is not
merely advocating sure-alls in a campaign
but which has in its hands the
present.welfare of 130,000,000 people
and the future of pur most cherished
American institutions.
"I am too old now to be regular
just for the sake of regularity.
"What we need in this country is
absolute dependability in our money
standards. It is the only thing which
will restore confidence. The latest
fiscal moves of the administration
have undermined public confidence.
They have created uncertainty.
"Uncertainty paralyzes business,
discourages private imitative, drives
money into hiding and places the entire
burden of sustaining the population
on the central government.
"We are told that there is a new
theory of government abroad. It is
the theory that the executives are
quarter backs on a football team who
do not know a minute in advance
what signal they will call next. They
determine the plays on' the basis of
'hunches.'
"Of course, this is just another
name for opportunism. There is
nothing new in it. It never pulled a
great modern industrial nation out
of a depression."
Child Seriously Burned
While engaged in making doll
clothes Saturday with little friends

NVville Bennett, of the state
budget commission, says requests fo
appropriations made to it amount ti
$2,000,000 more than the appropria
tions at the last session of the legis
lature, being- over $9,000,000 against
$7,000,000 appropriated for this fiscal
year and over $9,000,000 expended in
1932. The requests include a ?$10 a
month raise for teachers whose salaries
were fixed at $00 a manth from
the state at the last session. The
abolition of the four-mill tax levy
last spring accounts for most of the
raise this year in money needed.

4-H Club Work Is
To Be Increased
In making out the annual plan of
work for the extension Service program
in Kershaw county for H)84,
-the county agent has given a big
place in the program to 4-11 boys'
club work. The importance placed
on club work for the coming year
was influenced ' largely by the out
standing results obtained for Kershaw
county's development in the past four
years by these progressive young
farmers and also by the continued
interest on the part of the farm boys
ami their parents who have made
many calls on the county ugenC for
not only continuance of this work but
its further development,
Due to the many increased demands
on tho county agent" in new fields of
service for the farm people of the
county it is felt wise to put 4-11
activities for the coming year on a
slightly different basis than heretofore
with tho exception that greater
service may bo rendered and greater
success accomplished for the club
members and tho county's development
in general.
Threo of the most outstanding accomplishments
which have been ^'edited
by the public of the county to
a large extent to 4-H club boys during
the past four years are4 Filling the
ctAinty with a good quality of hogs
which has now reached the point of
practically supplying the county's
pork needs and also enabling a number
of club boys and farmers to sell
some of their surplus hogs to advantage
and at a profit; 4-11 club
boys of Kershaw county have played
a very important part in cattsiqg
Kershaw county to rise to the point
in forestry of now being the premier
forestry counjty 6f tho Southeastern
states. Itv> should not be forgotten
that 2 years ago 4-H "club boys
planted 204,000 trees in their demonstration
plots. This was the greatest
number of trees planted by club
boys of any county in tho entire
United States. 4-H. club boys deserve
a very large share of the credit for
the great forestry accomplishments of
Kershaw county to date. 4-H club
boys have contributed more probably
to the countj^s farming development
by bringing in their development of
better farm seeds, especially with respect
to corn. They have also beeff
among the leaders in planting legume
cover4 crops such as Austrian peas,
vetch, crotalaria and soybeans,
c'' While of course it is not claimed
that 4-H club boys have done all of
the good work with respect to ihe
above development, but when it is
remembered that it was through 4-H
club boys that over 200 extra fine
registered pure bred gilt pigs were
brought into' the county with 53 of
these placed in the hands of progressive
club boys in a single day,
it is easy to see how they have contributed
very largely to this one
phase of the county's development.
Four years ago there was a great
shortage of. hogs and meat in the
county. It was hard for a persoq to
evenljuy a pair of pigs. Today, how.
ever, the county is pretty well suf>
plied with hogs and meat and it is
through such accomplishments as
/ these that we believe the people of
( the county at large have come to re.
cognize the true value of 4-H club
work.
Under the new arrangement which
is made necessary by directly increased
demands for the county
I agent's time, it becomes necessary
( that 4-H club work be organized on
( a somewhat, different basis than heretofore.
Six new community 4-H
olubs are now contemplated and all
' other farm boys in the county who
are interested in becoming 4-H club
members are requested to notify the
' county agent at once and they will
k be placed on the county-wide club roll.
) As many meetings and personal visits
will be held as possible, but a great
deal of the work will be dono by
" correspondence, the county agent
j furnishing necessary envelopes. Also
r bulletins and up-to-date information
' I will be furnished each club member
j on each project as the need arises.
^ | Those who are interested in becomI
ing members are requested to notify
the county agent at once. Complete
information w|J1 then be furnished a
new member, advises Henry I). Green
e the county agent.

Bandits Rob Truck
With Machine Guns
The combined forces of the federal
government, stato, county and
city joined hands last night in attempting
to solve the daring mail
truck robbery yesterday morning near
the intersection of Third and Graham
streets in Charlotte by bandits
armed with sub-machine guns.
Postal officials were making every
effort to check the contents of several
sacks of registered mail and a
registered pouch taken by two of the
robbers while two others trained machine
guns~?on Tink Honeycutt, driver
of a truck of the local post office,
and G. F. Koontz, of Lexington, railway
mail clerk, in charge of the mail.
C? ' t
The robbery was staged with perfect
precision after an automobile
was driven from an alley into the
street and blocked the truck!a path.
After taking the sacks, the bandits
escaped in another automobile. The
car left at the scene was s to left from
Rock Hill, S. C., November S. Police
believed the robbers escaped in a
stolen automobile.
0
Last night department of justice
agents, secret service agents, postal
officials, state, county and city police
were following every clue in the almost
clueless case.
J. B. Earle, fingerprint expert with
the city police department, obtained
eight fingerprints from the abandoned
automobile. They were enlarged
to bo compared with the
prints of any persons suspected.
News of the robbery was relayed to
cities in Georgia, South Carolina and
Tennessee by Detective Chief Frank
N. Littlejohn, with the request that
all roads be guarded. The four robbers
escaped in a black Plymouth
sedan or coa^h, he said. .
The robllery was executed so
quickly and quietly that eye witnesses
did not realize what was taking place
until the robbers were speeding away.
While two of the bandits covered
the truck with the sub-machine guns,
two others tore the lock from the'
back door of the truck, seized sacks
of mail, jumped into the automobile
and sped away.'
Immediately after the departure of
the robbers, police itrived. Roads
leading from the city were immediately
watched, while calls were made
to neighboring cities to assist in the
search.
Judge W. ?H. Townsend took sick
