Wade Suckhouse) A governor should be a leader of man. lie nhould be a young man utrong enough and brave enough to bie*k away from precedent, when the hgh-t of a better day is visible. He tirwj.?4 oe progressive. He should be able to do for the sovereign Mate of S uth * aroBna something comparable to what Kranklir.% Hvostve.t has done fo* mi.' nation.

At times the South Carolina egislature seemingly rambles without a, purpose binder Roosevelt'* meswiages and purpoy-. congress is *u-erir.g to definite ends. Our present constitution has been irner.ueU and patched so much that it reads Iiko tne ads of the general assembly. Neither oyr citizens nor our judges seem to respect our constitution. When we ha\e a governor strong enough and big enough to direct the policy of a new constitutional convention it should be tailed. The governor should call the su; preme court and all circuit judges together and advise simpler and more speedy methods of trying all case a. The procrastination nr.d delays of South Carolina courts is one of the burning shkmes of our^ State. At present it looks as .f cou*ts of law arc designed to care for the criminals and not for. the protection of the .aw abiding. Have'we made law loving or law breaking Citizen- by the law enforcement of our laws?

"And the hutreds of sisters are not less tragic. An enemy's sword muy be deadly or not, hut a sister's pin prick Will spoil a life.

Clemaon College, Aug. ?#.? hear a great .deal about 'subsistence' farmers, but those who are struggling on badly eroded farms are not "subsistence' farmers?ehey are more "existence' farmers. By reason of their meagre income they cannot get above the level of mere existence. Because of tneir inability to create wealth as do farmers on productive land, they j frequently become community liabil- j tiled, necessitatidig support by the | rest of the community." So stated Dr. T. S. Buie, director j ! of the soil erosion work of the South > Tyger Kiver area in Spartanburg and j Greenville counties, to a Farmers'' Week audience here August 16. Dr. Buie likened soil erosion to an j annual tax levied against the capital j value of the property, which eventually i.V absorbed by the tax. "Just so lonfc as we htive conditions like these, so long will the general development of our culture and civilization be 'retarded," he said. Approximately three-fourths of the cultivated land of the Piedmont section of South Carolina is planted .o yotlon and corn?the real producers of erosion, and a recent survey of a I typical area in Spartanburg countyshows that only 10 pelf cent of the cultivated area has not buffered seriously from erosion. To meet conditions, the soil erosion workers are seeking to return to trees steep hillsides and other submarginal j land and are planning the proper use j of each acre of cultivated land. Dr. | Buie pointed out emphatically that it j is not a plan to reclaim land and j thus increase cotton, corn and other . surplus crops, but to retire from cul- j tivation eroded areas which should : never have gone under cultivation. K. A. Winston, of the Soil Erosion j Service in Washington, discussed national aspects of soil erosion; and E-nest Carnes and M. W. Lowry of Dr. Buie's staff discussed matters connected with the South Tyger pro- I gram. ; j Hour Changed The candidates for county offices *.\; 1 i close their campaign Saturday afternoon, at the mill \i!!age ami hide the.: time until the ar.xiou- moment - of e\t Ttie-.iav night when ; ? u 1 *. - begin * <>? ?)'?* in.
