P , WWTWtEKLV WtLKTIM saau-. ~ T{_ i my A. A Richardson, State Game ' WHIUuii) This pant week baa seen/the coinMi, n. iu>*. of opeo'feasons on all game f jn South Carolina. The state's law! declare* game may be taken legally j with curtain bag limits and by certain method* from now until various clos-! In* day* early In the new year. The 1 federal law which regulated the ml-1 gratory game, including our mourn-1 ing^doves and the water fowl, limits the season to about one month, closl i?g the day after Christmas. The open aeason on our two beat known game birds, the bobwhite quail vla the wild turfcqy, lasts slightly more than three months, however, with many0 exceptions. o, . The state law declared Thanksgiving day the beginning of the season and March 1st the'tclosing date, both' days inclusive, aud when the closing day of a season falls on a Sunday the' period is extended, one more day. While all counties open the bobwhite* season at Thanksgiving, Ches- i ter, Fairfield, Greenville, Horry, Lancaster, Newberry, Oconee, Pickens, i Spartanburg and York have declared t the season over on February 1, a': r whole month sooner than the state law. Chesterfield, Edgefield, Lexing- : ton, and Union, compromise on the i short season by selecting February 15 t as the closing date. . 1 The dally bag limit on quail la Aged by the state law at flfteeni how- i ever, certain counties again reduce the state limits: Clarendon, Florence, < i Saluda a^4 ..Horry, believe .twelve Is < all their supply will stand. Williams- i burg county changed its bag limit < this year from the former twelve < j back to fifteen. I The male - wild turkey (gobblers) may be., taken from the day before l Thanksgiving day until March first, < at the rate of two per day, but not t more than twenty per hunter for the aeason, except as further regulated 1 by certain counties. In Greenville i the season is1 one day, January 1. i Chesterfield, Edgefield, Lexington and < ; Writes Open Letter >; To Mr. Richards; t' Honorable J. P. Richards, M. C. < r ^Washington D C. < i My Dear Mr. Richards: l c. I think I have had the pleasure ot i seeing you only once, but 1 was at* l ! traded to you, and whether we sure < in agreement or disagreement will i not affect my appreciation of you. < 1 am'somewhat confused about your 1 attitude on the Wages .and Hours bill 1 - because It seems to me that you are " proceeding against the interest of the < South'Vand South Carolina and'.on a < t mistaken basis of. economics. v V J c I am sure you will not jresept my j ; presenting an argument. You are i quoted in today's Lancaster News? ... your weekly letter?as saying that I you and other southern congressmen < favor the bill because it will stabilize ] wages and reduce unemployment. I I believe you are man enough to admit an error, If convinced, and I should i " be glad to rest the whole case on the i correctness or incorrectness of that- 1 one position. As to unemployment: obviously all i industries which cannot meet the terms of this bill will shut down". That does not seem to help unemployment, i . Industries which survive will natur- < ally bciy/ more and more machinery, which, in turn, will further reduce employment. There are mqn who think that the surviving industries will be able to absorb those who are let out < by the industries which shut down. , This cannot be, but if it were so, why ; do not the employees go to those inp dustrles nowT - - j ??*& Aa a matter of fact, far from stabilizing employment, the tendency . of ~ this bill will be to Increase unemploy\ tnen.t. ' ' ' .. . .r-.J You know, as I do, that all wages depend on the earnings of Industries. How ooa an Industry pay wages be[ yond earnings T All that I have said ataju} increased unemployment of course appllee '. with equal force to refute the idea of stabilised wages. Wages can't be stabilized; they .increase, or diminish ' *s bustaass prospers ^pr recedes. Sta^ Wilting ts as unfair to labor as it is to capital; for labor hopes to receive 1 fair share of the profits. Therefore when business ts good it will receive | 'Aore; and when business is. be$ ft jr will receive loss; there cannot bo any ?uch thing as stabilising of wages unyou can stabilise sales and earnings and taxes and profits; The American Federation of Labor r.18 opposed to the bill as It stands, and The NstlHii^rtiffajuTu liss gone on record against it aqd vigorously, too. If labor concedes that the government may fix high wages it also concades to the government a principle ; L ' . ! Union close the reason on February 16, while Nowberry and Spartanburg boliuve February 1 to be lute enough to take the turkey. The northern countieu shoot doves la a up!it season; for a month from Soptenibor 15 and again from December 20 to January 31. The southern counties don't begin until November 20 (except Florence on Noyembor 25) .nd close the last day of January. The limits are -Afteeu doves. Those regulations are promulgated Jointly ? by the biological survey and the state game department. The duck hunters may take certain spcjies of wild duck from November 27 to December 26. There is no open season on Boas' duck, ruddy duck, canvas back, red head, hutfle head ducks and g)van. Use of live decoys, sink boxes or batteries and baiting Is Illegal. There la a three shell limit to all repeating guns not more than 10 guage. The legal hunting hours are from 7 a. m. to 4 p. m,, Ehstern standard time. Ten ducks and five geese, in aggregate of all kinds, are the bag limits. Federal stamps may be procured at postoffices. State hunting licenses must be had in every instance, except resident of state hunting on own land. There shall be no hunting at night and It la illegal to fire a gun from ^the highway. The selling or buying of game is Illegal. Even during open seasons a licensed hunter may not pursue his game over posted lands and game sanctuaries. The chief game warden la also empowered to declare an emergency olosed season during abnormal condltiofas. All these regulations are necessary tor the sane taking of game in South , Carolina If our supply is to last for another generation. Many changes could be made, and more uniform laws should prevail throughout the same zones, but strict regulatory measures must be had to Insure a continuance of our wild life. hat may result In low wages. If the government may fix high wages and ihort hours, It may fix low wageB and ong hours. It is certainly not the employees Interest td allow the government to establish any such principle! I think I_may say~5s a practical economist and business man that the looner we stop trying to meddle with everything ,the sooner wjll our busliess revive. Business depends on Inllvidual iniative; and individual inative depends on the faith of a 'man who has a dollar to Invest. Faith in what? Faith in the general Jeveloplnent of the neighborhood or the country; and faith in the opportunity to make a profit on his money and his la!bor. Whenever the business of a country is operated hy law, individual lnl&tlve shrinks; med refuse to take chances because the coniltions may be quickly and arbitrarily changed by law. That Is our trouble today. If you ever see a Lancaster town man trying to make a garden by a seed catalogue you will see what bright brains in Washington are doing In trying to plan this country by the book. It's all nobly intended, 1 know, but you know that hoble intentions are no substitute for hard common sense, based on the practical experience of generations which have worked and built this country. Even though every other feature of the bill were good, the power of control vestgd In a board, whether of five or ten or two, Is fatally bad. No man, no group of njien, can have the Intimate knowledge of our vast nation and Its multifarious" enterprises necessary to oontrol them. Not only have we regional peculiarities, but Sectional and,, state differences. Business must be unhampered in scope, though under such regulation as will punish crime, of course. : . warqxtroytr tol dseelng ness.e mhm However loyal we may wish to be to our party and to our President, we must- not forget that we shall soon have another president , We must not re-shape- our national lffe to any man's pattern, for the nation must survive men and time, conditions and circumstances. We must keep before us the great nation, rathdr than a great man.--' ... I lived ten years In 'a country which was governed absolutely by a great map. I was one of his chief lieutenants.

TplORD offers two new cars for 1938? X? the Standard Ford V-8 and the Do Luxe Ford V-8. They are diffefent in appearance? but built to the same high standard of mechanical excellence ? on tlw ijimw Because people liked our 1937 car so well, they bought more than of any other make. They liked its looks, its smooth , performance, and the way it handled.:, We have improved on that car in the newly styled Standard Ford V-8. * But some folks wanted still jnore sieeand style, with the same Ford advantages. For them, we designed a new De Luxe line. The De Luxe Ford V- 8 Sedans are longer with more room, larger luggage space, ?&d: finer appointments all around. De Luxe cars are equipped with the 85horsepower engine only. The Standard is even lower priced than the De Luxe. It has graceful new lines and well-tailored interiors?with a choice of engine sizes?85 or 60 horsepower. Before Ford made V-type 8-cylinder engines available to every one, they were used only in expensive cars. Since then, four million Ford owners have learned* the genuine enjoyment of driving an eightcylinder car with all-around economy. The thrifty "60" engine, especially, makes possible in Standard models a very low first cost and equally low operating cost. With two distinct designs, two engine sizes and two price ranges, you*ll find a 1938^ord car to fit your needs exactly.
