Veterans'Camps I Stir Criticism (From The Literary Digust) The combination of psychopathic War veterans, bootleg whisky, temp tations incident to pay day, and neighborhood complaints over the rowdiness of some of the men have made auch a problem of the F\ K. R a camps established in the South to avert another "Hoover Bonus March" that KeltoJ Administrator Harry L. Hopkins has decided to abandon the camps l^y. November 1, The ablebodied men are to be transferred to CCC camps and work-relief Jobs. In spite of the complaints, Mr. Hop kins said, according to the New York limes, that he was perfeotly satisfied with the manner in which the veterans camps had been operated, and that it Is "the flrkt time anybody has undertaken to do anything for this crowd of people, which has moved around the country trying to get Jobs, filled breadlines and caused panhandling." . Hut it was a strange story of men building a golf-course in a golfless town, and of others building a swimming-hole for themselves that Charles McLean, special correspondent of the New York Times, sent back from South Carolina. His series of articles aroused the New York Post to bitter irony. "The 'tragedy' stressed," says The Post, "is not the tragedy of homes broken up and decent men wrecked by depression added to shell-shock. The 'tragedy' stressed is the 'tragedy' of wasting $30 to $45 a month on these veterans in the construction of an unnecessary golf-course. "This is, indeed, Mr. Roosevelt's folly. These veterans went to Washington on a hunger march. Mr. Roosevelt arranged for FERA to house them, and give them jobs in the South Carolina camp, building a golf-course nobody wanted. Mr. Roosevelt can plead guilty. ^ ou'd never catch Mr. Hoover in such folly. You'd never get him to waste funds on good-for-nothing veterans. His method was different. "Mr. Hoover preferred to spend the money on teur-gus?at Anacostla." At Kingstree, South Carolina, Mr. -can found from 200 to 250 veterans engaged in building a golfcourse in a community of about 3,000 persons, half of them Negroes. "Hell," said a disgruntled veteran, "I'll bet there ain't a whole bag of them golf-clubs in forty miles of this tank town." Three distinct types of veterans are represented in this camp, writes Mr. Mcl^ean?shell-shocked, whiskyBhocked and depression-shocked. The philosophy of the commander of the camp, Capt. W. G. Plyler, is: "Rehabilitate them if we can, send them away if they fail to respond to the little discipline and disgrace themselves. We are with the veteran and for the veteran, so long as he is reasonable, and does not disgrace the camp." But Mr. McLean learned that the township is continually disturbed by the boisterous conduct of the men, and he heard outspoken criticism directed against Federal officials for sending the men to Kingstree. Another camp, near the Charleston (South Carolina) Navy Yard, Is described as "a War veterans' heaven." Here the veterans are quartered on a 300-acre site amid pine-forests in buildings said to be more comfortable than those occupied by the majority of Army troops. Police call the men "hell-raisers," according to Mr. McLean; but he heard, too, defense of them as "shell-shocked veterans who saw real service." How cheap human life is in South .Carolina was borne out bv a homicide at McColl a few days ago, though demonstrations of this fact are by no means infrequent. A district life insurance official accompanied the local agent of the insurance company lie represented to a home to check over an individual's payments, and at first decided to sit in the car while the .agent went into the house, and did the checking, but in a few minutes, due possibly to the delay, changed his mind, and went toward the house. Suddenly the man of the household emerged with a weapon and shot him down. What was behind it all we don't know unless it was that the slayer regarded the eft strict superintendent as responsible for impugning his veracity by ordering the checking of the records. At any rate there was no ground in the world for taking human life as was done. Out unfortunately cases of this kind are not rare in South Carolina, and hardly a week goes by?sometimes hardly a day?that does not witness some altogether inexcusable murder.?Chester Reporter.

A NEW AQC For a good many ycara WilaoDH North Western Railroad, nfffwrtlug from somewhere below Suuimertou through Sumter, Lee and Kershaw counties, is uow abandoned. Paved rouda uud gas are the order of the new day. Some of theae little burgs along the route are atlll gay with electric lights, tilling atatlona, and touriata camps. At night when you reach the croaa rouda below l'arler's tiie glare of blazing electric lighta, alorea, filling atatlona and automobilea, remind oue of a huatling town, ami it ia without u railroad. Further up are 1'arlcu and Elloree, with an iron horae, but somber and alill in the quiet ahudea of nigiit. That little Snyder railway line will soon go on the acrap heap. Should the gaa hold out for 20 odd yeara, who knowa but that Orangeburg and St. Matthewa, like Bowman, etc., may me acrambling for the tilling atation trade, touriat routea and hotela, with no railroad nearer than Columbia or Charleaton and not many there. It may seem a allly prophecy but the handwriting ia on the wall.? Calhoun Times.

Two men were tarred and feathered and three others were thrashed by night riders at Santa llosa, Calif., because they were alleged to be "Communistic agitators." Why Button Are or Coal Tails The use of buttons on the back ot men's coats goes hack to the time when uii'u rode horseback and also wore swords. The coat whs slit ut the back so that the tall could fall conveniently on ouch side of the hors?? after the rider had mounted- The buttons were tired to keep tbo skirts of .the coat togother when the rider was Mt riding. The two topmost buttons nee believed to be a survival of the side sill. Why W?k?

Why Traa Bleed* Moat in Morning The bureau of plunt Industry says .hat rubber trees bleed more freely In the morning than at other times because the hurk pressure Is higher. This Is due to the fact that transpiration Is cut down during the night. The tree will bleed to some extent at a?y time. Why Pockatknifa la Called Penknife Before steel pcn-nlbs wero Invontod, people wrote with pointed quills. These had to he trimmed every so often. For tills purposo they always carried a knife In their pockets. Hence, they wero "penknives" or "pocketknlves." Vice President Garner has plans visiting In Japan while on a visit to the Philippines this fall. Why Cock Crow* at Midnight Why the cock crows at midnight Is a problem the French Academy of Science has been called upon to solve by M. Higourdan, honorary director of the famous Paris observatory. M. Blgourdan has reported that often, while making astronomical observations, be has heard the cock crow exactly at midnight. Now he wants to know why l{ does so, and how tho cock determines the time of the night. French farmers say that when the cock crows at midnight It meuns bad weather the following dny. It thus nppears that, In addition to telling time, the cock can forecast the weather.
