A ! similar provision was In the hist WPA I appropriation but It contained a clause permitting the President to declare an emergency to permit WPA to follow a program thut Is scheduled to empty Its treasury by February 7, instead of February 37, as sought by Congress. Although the action was taken by the Sub-Committee on Deficiency bills and subject to confirmation by the full Appropriations committee, a broad Intimation of the position of the Full committee was given when its Chairman Representative Tayior, DemoI crat, of Colorado, took the unusual Htep of introducing the bill In the House Tuesday before It had been formally approved. It la anticipated that the majot fight in the House will be on three fronts, vfz: The committees recommendation of $725,000,000; the President's recommendation of $875,000,000, a proposal to Increase the amount to $1,000,000,000. Members are now faced with the disturbing thought that there Is still much suffering In our country and that money to relieve it has never yet been made to grow on trees. .

All of which goes to prove that what we need In this wonderful state of ours are more small efficient manufacturing enterprise and more income for the worker. Ixx)ka as if the greater part of our column this week is going to be a sort of series of sermons. We hope you like 'em. From the paraphrasing of the question of "what's wrong with South Carolina," we want to hop over to another topic and this time it involves the destruction of what we characterize as "Immoral literature! And, so here we go right oh the springboard and into the deep end of the pool. ? ? When the mayor of Milwaukee and the governor of a great state like Wisconsign join with a Catholic archbishop in a battle against something, you can bet that there is some reason for it. And we want to take ofT our hats to Mayor I>an Hoan. of Milwaukee, and Governor Julius Hell, of Wisconsin. for backing up Archbishop Samuel Striteh's recently begun drive against immoral literature. Tbev realize, as does Archbishop Stritch, that if the minds of those who will be the adults of tomorrow, are to be kept untainted what they read must also be kept clean. No mind is so plastic as that of a youth i t- r ^- i.-A yporQ And whut 1T1 Ilia lei mntMv >*-*- ? - j be reads forms his thinking habits and bis thinking habits influence his| actions. The recent and growing flood of ob-j scene and suggestive "literature, which has inundated hook and magazine stands, is as great a menace to the bodies as well as the minds of high school and college students as any germinal disease. Cartoon, humor and pii ture magazines are the bigpest offenders in this regard. * + * Now to get away from the serious vein and think over some alleged humorous ideas. k or instance we arc reminded of the worst Joke of the Christmas period, when Pamela, asked if mistletoe would grow in Ca,iforma replied. "No. but Hollywood" ? And then there is the man who j > banned his will so often, that he was ' known as the fresh-heir fiend. And this from Don's wife.

We hope Governor and . Mrs. Maybank, General and Mrs. Bryi den and other notables will be on i hand for the event. They'll be calling Carl Llghtfoot Mister Corrlgau from now on. Carl plays with Country and when he tried to drive the ball away from his own goal, he struck it at such an angle that the ball popped between the goal posts. Sort of like Ray Rieg&l'f gridiron gallop a few years back when he sought to score for the opposing team In a Rose Bowl tilt. t The Town foursome certainly was elated to win the Devine cup, for it was the first time in the competition that Town has carried away the bacon. Have you noticed the new signs at Broad and DeKalb and on Broad opposite the' No. 1 polo field entrance. They were designed by the Camden News Service and painted by a chap named Graves who is employed at the Hobklrk hotel. Expense of signs was met by Mr. Klrkover and the polo club. The Columbia State declares the j Camden News Service has a sudden, death pencil for such ajectlves as "lovely," "pretty" and the word "very." You said It brother. We do^ have. By the way, listen to the broadcast Friday afternoon at 5 o'clock over WIS. Dick Floyd and the Skipper'-; are due to be Interviewed by Caskle Norvell on the polo situation in Cam- ] den. If we have anything to say, it will be Dick who will warble over the air waves. , Have you noticed what has been left of the wire fence enclosing the tennis court at Broad and I^aurens streets. Looks like a herd of elephants had wandered loose and crashed through the wire mesh on all sides of the court. We are a great believer i in ourdoor exercises for we also believe the, young people who use the concrete tennis court for a skating rink should have some respect for the property. It costs money to replace the wire netting, which has been in place but a few months. JOHNSTON BECOMES 8EVENT14 LIVING FORMER GOVERNOR Columbia, Jan. 17.?Retiring from office today, Governor Oliu D. Johnston will become the seventh living former governor of the state. Former governors who are still living in order of their terms are: John Gary Evans, 75, of Spartanburg (189497); Duncan Clinch Hey ward, 74, of Columbia, (1903-07); Martin F. Ansel, 88, of Greenville, (1907-11); Coleman Livingston Blease, 70, of Columbia, (1911-15); Robert A. Cooper, 64, now federal Judge at San Juan, Puerto Rico, (1919-22); John G. Richards, 74, of Liberty Hill, (1927-31); and Olin D. Johnston, 43, of Spartanburg, (19351939.) | Former governor Evans was the youngest man ever to hold the ofTice of governor. He succeeded Governor Tillman when only 31. The present state constitution was adopted during his term. | Blease, who also served as United States senator, was a candidate for governor In the primary last summer. Out of every dollar received during 1937 by American oil companies, 18 cents was required for federal, state and local taxes. Refuses Fortune For Man O'War New York, Jan. 13.?In 1939, at the age of 22, nineteen years after he quit the turf with the most notable record in American history, Man O'War continues to make news, l^aat week his owner, Samuel D. Riddle, turned down au offer of $1,000,000 cash for him. It was by far the largest offer made for a race horse. t The offer came, appropriately enough for bo huge a bid, from Louis B. Mayer, Hollywood film producer, Riddle revealed yesterday. It was flatly refused, for Riddle had vowed never to part with his famous runner and sire and had Just completed arrangements setting up a trust fund for the son of Fair Play-Mahubah. The trust fund will continue Man O'War in his pleasant regal state If Riddle and Mrs Riddle die before he dies, and makes provision for his burial in the same plot with his sire and dam. Mayer's offer was a surprising one ?at 22 Man O'War values as sire has declined?but there seems little doubt it was sincere. Since entering the racing game, Mayer has bought heavily, purchasing among others: William Woodward's Perifox, Ogden Phipps' Magic Hour (for $25,000), and Thomas Hitchcock's Ossabaw. He has entered them in the big CallTtrr?4a stakes this winter and is training the $79,000 worth of yearlings purchased at the Saratoga sales last summer. It was at those same sales that Riddle bought Man O'War in 1918 from the late Augustufe Belmont for $5,000. "Big Red" won twenty of twenty-one races before being retired at the end of his three-year-old season, losing only to Upset, and won $249,465 in purses. Competent judges believe his winnings would have been doubled had he run five or six years later* when purses were uniformly higher.

YOU'D BE SAFER WITH HUDSON'S EXCLUSIVE AUTO-POISE CONTROL WHY? Because this revolutionary mechanical invention (patent applied for) automatically helps to keep wheels on their course ?on rough roads, in heavy side winds, even when a tire blows. The operation of AUTO-POISE CONTROL does not require special tires, tubes or extra equipment of any kind. It is standard at no extra cost on all 1939 Hudson passenger cars; NO OTHER CAR HAS ANYTHING LIKE IT. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO YOU IF HYDRAULICS SUDDENLY FAILED? YOU'D BE SAFER WITH HUDSON'S EXCLUSIVE DOUBLE-SAFE BRAKES WHY? Because, even if hydraulics should sud> denly fail through accident or service neglect, the driver of a Hudson just pushes farther on the same foot pedal and STOPS.Thanks to Hudson's exclusive Double-Safe Brakes ? two braking systems (finest Bendix Hydraulics and a separate reserve mechanical system) working automatically from the same foot pedal. Many letters in our hies tell of accidents prevented by DoubleSafe Brakes, standard in all 1939 Hudsons.
