Blaming the unrest in Europe on tiie Versailles Treaty, Dr. Colton made it clear that a German made peace at that time would have been as bitter and would huve left a .similarly disturbed continent. The details of the Versailles Treaty, he said, wore due to Clemenceau, who played on Wilson's passion for a league of nations to trade for what ho considered necessary for France, Security Ho then proceeded to discuss the polyglot racial characteristics of Central European countries, citing that in Prague he hud heard the Creed recited in four languages. As for war, he does not think Europe will break out inside of two years, merely because lie thinks 110 one will be ready before that time. As for war preparation, ho told of an apartment building in Poland which had bomb proof cellars, but no elevators. The builder stated that he did not have enough money for both.. 'Phe Spanish eltuation, ho said, was a perfect example of a condition where social changes were long overdue and neither side would give in. In other words, the will of the Spanish people was not being served, with tho present result, War, he went on, must be started by one of Ave nations: Great Britain, Germany, France, Russia or Italy. Hitler, he says, does not want to fight Great Britain. Italy is ready. The Russians won't start the war. France may split if Spain goes to the Red forces. The French and the British, he says, will stick together, even though they don't get along. Dr. Colton is stopping with Mr and Mrs. Ward C. Belcher. Urges Passage Of Kleberg Bill An appeal to Senators Byrnes and Smith and to Congressman Richards for support of Kleberg Bill No. H. R. 3,90"), has been made by Secretary Frank H. Heath of the Camden Cham: her of Commerce. I In his letter to the legislators Mr. Heath stressed the fact that he believed that the passage of this bill was of vital importance to the farmors of South Carolina,, as-well as of the entire south where the cotton industry is foremost. The Kleberg Bill is a measure destined to exempt retailers from the occupational tax on the gale of margarine and for other purposes. In his letter Mr. Heath calls attention to the fact that many- dairy states have imposed unjust taxes on margarines and that if the practice is continued will eventually outlaw a spread that goes on the tables of millions of people who cannot afford butter. The secretary calls attention to the high tariff levied in Wisconsin, his home state and declares that in his opinion Wisconsin industry is hot in accord with this program, Industry however, is handicapped^ by the fact that the Wisconsin solons are more or less in harmony with the dairy interests. "To my mind," said Mr. Heath "tbere to: no more Justification in imposing a tax against margarine by the dairy states than there would be for the wool states to impose a tax against the use of cotton in clothing. "I believe that the average person who can afford to do so will naturally buy creamery butter for his table, but there are millions oft people who cannot afford butter and who find margarine a splendid substitute. "Therefore, I. firmly believe that it is fundamentally wrong to expect to make the poor people suffer for the want of a very necessary food, for margarine is Just as much a food as many other eatables, as it contains milk and domestic vegetable fats." Coker Glee Club To Give Program The Coker College Glee club, under the direction of Dwight Steere of the Coker music faculty, will give a program of sacred music at tho First Baptist church of Camden on Sunday, March 14, during the morning church service.

Repairs of a permanent nature are now being made to the floodgates, which had begun to leak, and it has been necessary to lower the water to a considerable degree.

The date that has been decided upon Is Tuesday, March 2.1, the Tuesday of Carolina Cup week, the hours from 2 In the afternoon until 10 o'clock at night. Originally It was planned to run the ctrcUB only from 2 until 6, but so much enthusiasm is being manifested and so difficult was it to crowd all the thrilling acts and unusual features into four hours, that the hours of 2 o'clock until 10 p. m. were requisite to stage It. all. One of the headline attractions of the circus will be the gymkhaua. This will be run on a specially prepared field, Immediately in back of MissOlive Whittredgo s place on Kirkwood Laqo, where the affair is to be held.

There are at present thirty children in the copnty who are getting the benefits made possible by the sale of the seals each year and It ! hoped that greater strides in the care and treatment of these poor unfortunate children will be accomplished through the sale of the seals and the benefit polo game on Sunday. The Crippled Children's society has accomplished some fine work in Camden and Kershaw county and it IS to he hoped that public support will make possible even greater results.
