THE CAMDEN CHRONICLE fl, D. NILBH, Bditor and l?ubit?h*r Published ?v?ry Friday at Number 1109 Ilrwad Btreet. and entered at the Camden, South Carolina poatofftoa aa econd claee malt matter. Prtoe per annum ft 00, payable In advance. Friday, October 30, 1930 ANOTHER REASONED CHOlCRf A ini?l<l le-aged farmer dioppod Into the officii the other day to pay his subscript Ion to The Knquirer (as many are doing these days,? adv.) in the course of our conversation wo learned that he was a native of Stanley county, and, that heli?K " tW(>' party county, w.; asked )iIm about his politics. ' I never have voted," he said, to our surprise, "hut I'm going to vote this year, and I'll cast my ballot for Roosevelt." Naturally we wanted to know why after all these years he < had decided to exercise his franchise, as the hoys say, so we asked him. " I localise three years ago i was , flat broke. | didn't have much to lose > but' I lost that Now I have a 10- ' acre farm, two mules, and a '31 Ford, ' ail paid lor. 1 don't owe hut' two ' dollars to anyone in the world and j I'm on my way to pay that now." I This man, like many more of us > doesn't know exactly how the Iloose- ' veil admiulstration has helped him ^ but he does know that he is much H better off than he has been In several e 3 ears.. And he Is in no mood to have ' ( the picture changed, even if lie lias to cast his Mist vote to keep the f, status quo.? Monroe ICnqulrer. |j ' s_ I TRYING TO 8AY A KIND WORD o There are those who say that The 2 News and Courier never lias a kind 11 word for the Roosevelt admlnistra- J( tlon, and that is a great mistake. It lias praised many of Mr. Roosevelt's J policies, among them his opposition to the bonus payment, his insistence j upon neutrality in foreign disputes, t and the Hull reciprocal treaties as t far us they go. Now we wish to say h another kind word. It is that the ^ Roosevelt distribution of the federal offices In South Carolina bus been an obstacle in the wny of the erection ' of an effective political machino by 1 (Inventor Johnston. Our observation r is that tlie great majority of the po- < litical appointments have been out- ? side the Johnston camp. The News 1 and Courier greatly prefers the fed- ( cral machine in South Carolina that , we now have to one our good govcr- t nor might control. Wo have known ' tlie politics of South Carolina to bo in much worse hands than they nro ( at this time. The president is to be j congratulated upon the skill with I which he has retained the affection of the governor and at the same time ' cut his claws. If this Is not an expression of gratitude and a kind word for Mr. Roosevelt, what could bo?? The Nn?.'K and Courier, MAKE HASTE 8LOWLY Ttvo line young men of l^uke City ju-?t on tlie threshold of life were sacrificed early yesterday morning to the tf??d of haste Kvery like tragedy i-- a warning to make haste slowly but even sire death fails to warn as the list of automobile wreck victims i out inues to mount. It-- hard to li\ the blame for theso wrecks as both parties In every one of thein would not Intentionally risk their lives and limbs It chii better lie charged to < arelesstiess or recklessness and the fact that whereas a railroad engineer with his train set on a track has to be train (Hi for years, anyone with down payment can drive an automobile on any side of the road he chooses to. Kxpensive signal systems acquaint the engineer if another train is in certain blocks of tracks, but the motorist never knows when another car will come dash'ng across his path from side roads or from behind another car. Itefore there will be much let-up in the tragedies of the highways a separate lane will have to be built for trucks and extra lanes for fast and slow turning traffic and "stop, look a tii'. listen" signs across every tvp . ptoaoh tit the main arteries of travel. " his will oiih lessen the hazard, i- no cure for human carelessi: s Florence Morning News. BARF I ELD?BARN HILL < h: Monday afternoon. October 2?i. a* 1 o'clock. '/. V.
