Fr\d*y, May 20, 1938 COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS ( By Spectator) Rule 32 of tho Democratic Party of Soutii caroling?what shall wo do about it'' Shall wo amend it or do nothing ? What is UUlo 32? It is the rub* of the party which obliga'ps a voter lit our State Primary to sup pi 11 tl.e nominees in the Statu and National electious. The reason for thu rulu was to bring about IHiinocrutlc unity from the county to the presidency. Recently a strong movement wu? started to change tlie rule so that a voter may vote the Democratic ticket for State and County officials without belli# bound to vote for national candidates Many reasons arc given lor tills new attitude. We as Democrats are caller! upon to examine afresh the reasons why we are Democrats in the national politics wo once thought tiie difference between a Democrat and a Republican was this 1 he Democrats advocated low tariffs and White supremacy; the Republicans stood for high tariffs, protective tariffs and negro participation in politics ib-ir in the south that was about the difference between the parties I he ibp.biic.in sin reeded in putting Illicit tariffs ??n us and have tried to put tin- !:' gro on vis. too. In our National Democratic Con\. litem tie -onth has had a sort of wt-? pow?-r 'hrough the rule which i>i,ini. i'l a niali to have a two thirds majority m onb-r b.-cme the nominee t v ainihl.tte i of tlie party for the pre side in y Now the yi-ais have brought many changes, no man can t? 11 us today the different between a Republican ?--fftni m Deinoi rat Is it the tariff ? Is it tie- attitude of the party toward the t.egrn" A i to the tarift We Dcinociuts have had absolute control of the president y and congress for nearly six years In four years of that time tie- president was so powerful that the i oiigres was jilnl a rubber stump for his will Have we a low tariff today" We have not Any signs ot a low tariff? Not a sign! Therefore there i* no longer any difference between Democrats and Republicans on the tariff issue. We sleep together ill one bed What about the two parties on the negro? We Southern white men have learned from infancy that the negroes are Republicans and that Northern Republicans have tried to put the yegro on an e<|uality with us Well, the Northern Democrats worked on a scheme which brought the negroes into th>- I'em x-ratic Party in So eager wie the Northern Democrats to get lo-gro support thai they invited a negro pn ac her to pray and a negro lawyer to speak at the convention. Our Senator Cotton Kd Smith wall,. 1 our of th- i (invention )u disgust. The negroes voted Democratic They- ate today -,o strongly Detnocra'ic that our Senator Jimtnie Byrnes said in the Senate recently that the negro* - today control the Democratic 1 'art y What Is tile outcome" 'I he 1 lentoitalic Congress, the Democrats, mark you. have tried to pay their debt to tho negroes by passing the Antllynching bill ?a bill which would allow tho National Government to punish a sheriff for a lynching in his county, try him and sentence him in a Federal Court. The same bill would allow a suit in a Federal Court against a county in which a lynching takes place I am not advocating or defending lynching; but I am condemning tho effort of a group of Northern Democrats to take charge of even local law i i enforcement as a sop to northern negroes who maintain a lobby In Washington What, thi-n. is the difference today between the National Democrats and Republicans on the nt-gro question? Only this The National Democrats .ire trying to put on us of the South no?r<- repulsive measures than the Republicans have advoi at'-d In view of the changes in n.Vtona! -? politic? we ran keep our South fa; lina Democracy as w - wan' it. as th? great bulwark ??f W bite >uprt-mai y but we have only a fe-hb- voice in >r\ the National Democracy and our hro thor f)? moo a:s real or so called have sold our birthright for a moss of pottage We South Carolina Democrats ar? not greatly regarded in the councils of the party. We are accepted as deep-dyed-in-the-wool and beyond B change. We are given a fVw crumbs to nibble on while the others have a m<|u are meal Thq ndittliolitretlon?j our uw|i Democratic Admlniutrtttlon? 1? advocating, in insisting on a Whk? and Hour bill. At bottom thin ineasure would take away from the south (he special advantage** wo enjoy ; thruuKh our climate. It Is Inspired' in the north to protect their Industries against ua. But the great Democratic Administration recognizes big differences between the north and the south In WI'A wages. It pays fiftynine cents an hour iu the north and twenty eight cents an hour In south. This Is our money, the taxpayers' money and all as citizens should share alike. Yet the men who talk of wages and hours by law don't practice what they preach And what do we get down here by being so completely Democratic that we are counted In Mr. Farley's bug even before we vote? Have we received u share In proportion to New York. I'ennsylvanlu and others? We need to reserve our strength so no party can trifle with us. As the National Democratic Party stands today we of South Carolina are less than a bunch of red-headed step-chll(1 ren j Our National Democratic organization hus betrayed us, snapped Us lingers at the traditions of our fathers, developed thrdugh sacrifices and suffering which today enshrine them In our hearts us men of heroic mold. We are not Republicans, but wo should serve notice that we must have recognition according to our numbers and that no man or group can play j fust and loose with us?and get away I w it h it. Many farmers are dissatisfied with I tl.eir cotton and tobacco allotments [They are proclaiming their dissatisfaction loudly. It would be foolish j ' to blink the facts; some feel deeply . aggrieved. ! 1 think I can understand how they feel. I have some land that has not j r.-reived a proper allotment; but It is my own fault, so far as there Is a fault. The government is trying to deal din < t 1 > with tenants and some of my Hants did not even inaKe worksheets. I h" truth is that this effort to deal with all the farmers Is a stupendous undertaking ami it is remarkably well done, in spite of some individual cusMk It does seem a shame that some Should be given allotments for more than they have hertofore planted and more than they really want; while others have pitifully small allotments; but unless a general rule be adopted we should have to empower local committees to proceed at their own discretion Well imagine how we should j resent that. So any general rule Is Tioulicl to work to the advantage of some and to the disadvantage of oth' its The biggest trouble of all is tho short time in which county committees have in which to do a tremendous Job. Sumter county has no levy tor comity purposes this year Croat is Sumter county. It is indeed a great counts a county of good farmers and wideawake business men It is also a county which has for Senator R. D.

That great county has run two years without a levy for county purposes Standing in the forefront of Chester's representation is that sturdy and dependable .
