KERSHAW COUNTY NEGRO CHRI8TMA8 8EAL SALE Dtirlng last year, ' octooer 1, 1936 to October, 1937 four X-ray clinics were held In Kershaw county; twenty-eight negroes were given chest Xrays at these clinics; 106 negro children were given the tuberculin test. Among these children forty-five were found to have the germs of tuberculosis In their bodies. Three of these children had chest X-rays to find out If their lungs were damaged. 116 adults were given the tuberculin test. Among these forty-eight were found to have the germs of tuberculosis in their bodies. The tuberculin test tells whether the germs of tuberculosis are In our bodies. The Crest x-ray tells whether the germs are eating out parts of our lungs. If we put off and let the germs eat too long, they will kill us. Do you remember how sorry aud excited we all were one day ae bout two years ago when a train klll^i ed nine persons at a railway crossing here? That was terrible. You remember how we sympathized with the family aud talked about the accident for days. We are reminding you of this because we are going to tell you that tuberculosis is nioro dangerous?tho less exciting?than wrecks. Tuberculosis killed more than 1,000 persons in South Carolina last year. 737 of those tuberculosis killed last year were negroes. Nine of these, negro citizens of Kershaw county. Suppose tuberculosis had killed all nine of these on the same day! You would have been worked up about it. : You would hav? wanted to do something about it! But, tuberculosis does not work that way. Instead, tuberculosis allowed these nine persons to suffer thru days and months, and perhaps years, while the germs were eating out their lungs?causing them to cough, night sweat, hemorrhage, and die. You want to live! They wanted to ive! But tuberculosis kills! You can help save lives by buying and using Christmas Seals to decorate your Christinas packages, cards and letters. The money you pay for the Christmas Seals will help us to find nnd properly care for persons who have tuberculosis. Thus, you are protected, and'our communities are made safer, because tuberculosis is a catching disease. The germs spread from the sick to the well, possibly causing them to fall sick of the disease, also. Christmas Seals Saves Lives. They protect your family and mine?you and me! What would you take In exchange for your life? Would you not pay any amount to save yourself from death? Why not protect your life by buying and using Christmas Seals? With , the hope that you will make your contribution to this worthy cause, and with best wishes for a healthy, j Happy New Year, we are, Kershaw !

The raids covered the whole of the county, if- k2ir-: * f n *AIL?Y AYl PAYHOUR ILL UNFAIR TO QTATI* The wages and hour* bill would be unfair to the Htates and an Invasion of right* that would harm ajl Indutry. Senator Joaiah W. ^ Halloy, of North Carolina, declared * this week in new blast at the Ulack-Counery pro posnl now pending in the House. Strongly condemning the measure which he fought in the Seuate, the senior' senator said in a statement copyrighted by the Newspaper Alliance, Inc., and published in many of the newspapers today, "I am opposed to the wages and hours bill, not because 1 am opposed to the highest possible wuges in the South or anywhere else, but because 1 am qppoaed to all this sort of legislation. "1 do not think the Federal government has the power to regulate wages and hours in the States. I do think the Stutes have that power. If, when this country was created, the States had suspected that the time would come when the Congress would try to control wages and hours in the States, they would never have ratified the constitution.- > "Congress has the power to control commerce, but not the i?ower to conrfrt>f IhdtlStVy: * "BveYi if Congress had the power, it could not use It practically. It Is Inconceivable that a board of five men, or 10, or any number could set up a wage-and-hour system for the whole American people. We not only have 120,000,000 people In the United States, but we also have a vast territory. Once we undertake to cast theso people and this territory Into a uniform Federal Industrial system, we will find that the very effort will tend to break doAvn the whole republic. President Roosevelt said this when "he was governor of New York in a speech in the year 1930. "As a southern senator, I am not willing to be placed in the position of opposing legislation on the ground that the South can't afford to pay as good wages as any other section. We have some advantages and some disadvantages. We use less fuel, be cause we have a longer summer, but we are at a serious disadvantage in freight rates. Few people realize that cotton is shipped to New England from Texas for less than that for which It is shipped from Texas to North Carolina. And our North (Varolina mills use a great deal of Texas cotton. "The northern States have the -advantage of proximity to consuming population and the advantage of the freight rates.?We have the advantage1 of climate. Our rents are lower, Our | cost of living is somewhat lower whenever we live at home. But I am not objecting to this legislation on the ground that it would give the North i and New England industry an advan-j tage over the southern industry. I [ wish the southern workers to live on as good a plane as any other workers in this country. "My objection is that the Congress .has no power to do what It Is proposed to do. and. if It had that power. no board could make the proper, adjustments. We have little Indus-1 tries and big industries. We havej skillet^ people and unskilled people. | We have young workers and old. workers. We have struggling industries and strong industries. Manifestly, they cannot be set Into a pattern by national action. "I am unwilling to thrust our In-, dustrial life into Federal vortex. At J the present moment we are having great difficulty by reason of aglta-j tlons encouraged by the existence of the National Labor Relations board. These agitations are not good for the workers, and they are not good for j the industries. "We ought always to remember | that the basis of American life is local self-government, not Federal: control. This has accounted for the progress and success of our people. MANY YOUNG MEN ENLI8TING AS UNITED STATES RECRUIT8 < During the month of December, seventy-eight young men from the states of North and 8outh Carolina are to be enlisted In the United States;; Navy as apprentice seamen. Immediately after enlistment these yohng men will be sent to the U. S. Naval Training Station at Norfolk, Va., where they will receive twelve weeks Instruction In Naval Life and routine, before being assigned to one of the shlpa of the U. S. Fleet for duty. W. A. Shrlver, chief electrician's mate. U. S. Navy, recruiter in charge of tho L*. S. Navy Recruiting Statfon, C. S. Court Ruildlng, Columbia, S.

S.-Navy are being accepted every week day between the hours of 9 a. m. and 4:30 p. m., excepting Saturday when the houra are from 9 a. m. to 1 p. m. CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank all our friends for the klndnees shown us when Minnie Reynolds ; died. We appreciated very much the lovely dowers sent to her feneral also. . Thomas Nelson Reynolds ^ ' and Family If we shall abandon It, we shall pay n fearful penalty for the experience. "The experience with the old NRA was utterly unsatisfactory. The American people welcomed it at first as a means of recovery. It was entitled the National Recovery Act. Our people were desperate, and the almost made religion attachment to it; but, after six months of experience, they Baw how futile It was, and I hope it will not be forgotten that, from the time it went into effect until it was thrown out by the Supreme Court, we lost ground rapidly. Instead of toaking the recovery, it made for the loss of all that we gained in the period from March to July, 1933. This is a fair illustration of the futility of Federal control as a means of recovery." i i i53Cu&/111 I AT lowatrcoirl GREYHOUND I f Happy Saving on holiday travail Che/hound found 1 trip (am ara only 1/1 tha coat oI diiving ? >m?u carl You can buy many a ChrUtwas gift with what you aava on faraa that coat laaa than any othar hind of r J traaaportation.
