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

some caterpl^r wheels capable of being

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. I
The Knights of Columbus, Catholic
organization, closed its three-day convention
in New York after defeating a
proposal to permit the use of alcoholic
beverages at K. of C. functions.
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? Island la Important
Wake Island Is an Islet of rock In
Mm Pacific ocean, lying l,8fiQ miles
artheast of Guam and 8,000 miles
oast of Uuson, Philippines. It belongs
* the United States as a Pacific outpost
of the Philippine archipelago. It
la About ouu square mile In area and
Irs Importance Is due to the fuct that
It !h on the cuble route between the
United States and the PhM'pplnes.
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.

American Legion, In session at Macon,
