Colonel Glenn whh born and reared In AnderHon county. He la the son of Kllxabottf Iiurrlss Glenn and the late W H ulenn Hl? father way an extensive farmer He was for some years a director of the atato penitentiary and for a time waa chairman of( the board of directors of iliut Institution | In 192:t Colonel Glenn came to the DeSauaaure farm across In Sumter county as Its manager and served In that capacity until six years ago when he was given chargo also of the Held farm In Kershaw county. That promotion came to him because of the fine record ho had made at the DeSaussuro farm both as a farmer and j a disciplinarian. His successful administration of those two farms, his capable manner of handling the prisoners Intrusted to him, and the excellent crops ho was able to produce under all conditions focused the attention of the penal authorities upon him with the result that he has been elevated to one of the most Important positions In the state government. Colonel Glenn, following the Instructions of the board, took charge Immediately upon his election In addition to his official duties at Columbia, It Is understood that he will continue to manage both the Held and the DoSaussure farms. The many friends of Colonel Glenn and his fine family in Kershaw and Sumter counties will be, delighted to know that they will continue their residence at Boykln. The promotion of Colonel Glenn was well earned and the stale is fortunate to have the benefit of Ills services in this Important position. paging king solomon We read in Holy Writ thai two women came to King Solomon, ouch claiming to he the mother of a child and each wanting the possession of It Solomon. In his wisdom, said that he would divide the child into two pat ts and give to each one half. Of course, ll was Immediately disclosed to h.m who the real mother was. Recently. some of Camden's prominent business men became Involved over the question us to who should have possession of a certain vacant lot. Not wishing to run the risk of involving their friendship by resorting to legal proceedings, they left the matter to arbitration. The arbitrators, having In mind no doubt lite action of King Solomon, divided the lot in half and gave half to one and half to the other please sign your name The Chronicle Is in receipt of a letter announcing the death of an infant, the parents are Kershaw cornty natives The death of the Infant occurred in a hospital located in a state far from South Carolina It was written on the hospital stationery and hore the customary date mark on the envelope but no signature was on the letter ami no return address on tlm envelope While we sympathize with (he bereaved parents we cannot run, notices sept in to that hear no, signature We made the rule mnti> ^ years ago after getting into considerable trouble by using an announce j inent that bore no signature We are glad to receive news items j about Kershaw county people nt any, time and will gladly run them when they carry the proper signature There, are strict libel laws In South Carolina which should he corrected, but .is, they now ^taml the press cannot tnak" a positive statement, hut has to satis-, fv the public with the well worn phrase. "It Is said." Negro On Gaston Grand Jury Gastonia.?Gaston county s grand jury Wednesday had a negro member for the first time In history. A A Wellman. Gastonia negro, became thei first of his race to do grand Jury dutyj in this county when he was sworn tn ; vesterday for grand Jury service for ( the next six fflotfrtis. Negroes have been summoned for Jury service here before, but have alway* been excused.. Foreman of the grand Jury is P. A. | Summey, of Dallas. A new suggestion for settlement of the Mexican oil dispute has been plac-j ed before the Mexican government byj Donald R. Rlchburg, attorney ropro-j sontlng companies whose properties j were expropriated March 18 of last: jeaf. Details were not given. I COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS ,j (*#/ opociatorj Colonel Wyndham Manning, U? a 1 speech In McConnellHville, came cut squarely against a third term far Mr. Koosevelt or uny qlher President. Seine lime age Senator Smith dec-lured against a third term and Congressman Thomas S McMillan has declared against It So far as 1 know, those three gentlemen aro the only outstanding political figures to speak out against the third term. No man Is so Important or so great as to be Indispensable. This nation of a hundred and twenty million people is the greatest failure in the history of mankind if it has only ouo ! man equipped for the Presidency. All our universities and colleges, all outpublic schools, ull our years of political freedom and experience have I been a sad waste if they have produced only one man. In congress alone there must bo a doien men fully as capable as Mr. Roosevelt; among the Democratic governors there are certainly five or six who are figures of respectable ability; and outside tho held of officialdom our nation has thousands of men of transcendent at, taluments. ' Stalin may be the one and only man In Russia; Hitler may be tho one man In Germany; Mussolini may the great and Indispensable Italian; hut no such one-man condition obtains in this land of liberty and ftoe institutions. We are not dependent on any one man, nor must we choose some ono who wears his mantle. In i the exercise of sovereign political lights let us choose as may be best for tho nation. Larger counties, a consolidation of counties?la that what we need? Apparently we have two many counties, twelve counties instead for forty-six, and seven or eight judges instead of fourteen, and so on. As so often Is true, appearances are misleading. It may be true that we don't need any counties at all. For convenience we might have judicial regions corresponding to counties; and we might have such regions for returning property and for road supervision, and for recording papers, deeds anil so on. Well there we have tho counties, eh? What real benefit would come from a consolidation of counties? Change merely for the sake or change isn't worth much except In ladies' clothing The advocates of consolidation argue that paved roads make it easier to go longer distances to court houses. True, but that argument Is Just as persuasive for doing_ away with all counties and concentrating in Columbia. or in Columbia, Charleston and Greenville. But there are certain services which are performed better in small units. It is Interesting to observe that the small counties seem to be the most competently administered I jet us take time to admire little Bamberg Apparently there are neither ordinary county bonds nor school bonds outstanding. There are no certificates of Indebtedness, although the revenue produced by property taxes has fallen from $179,410 In 1929, to $90,180 in 1938. Only $94,880 was due for back taxes. Hxiw would you add this to Us great big neighbor, Orangeburg? Not unless every Bamberger were slain at the ballot box. Orangeburg, in 1929. owed $955,000 for county purposes and $289,000 for school; but In 1938. H owed $1.7S3.0oO for county purposes and $.?2ti,?G< for schools Verily those sturdy burghers have fallen under the spell of the New Deal. True it is that Orangelung's revenue from property taxes fell from $718.39" in 1929. to $381,041 in 193s. hut delinquent taxes stiil totalh-d $7:; 1.078. A singular development i* that Orangeburg had t wen:> tour industries in 1929, with 1.220 employees, but she had twenty-eight industries in 1938. with only 917 employee's I'his reverses the experience of most eounties So, then, would you tie Bainberg to Orangeburg? Nay. my brother Tbeu there is another baby county which touches on Orangeburg?wee Calhoun, which owes next to nothing and had only $11,903 in delinquent taxes Most of this must be doubleentries, for In a land of so many Smoaks and Wannatnakers the auditor may bo excused for a bit of confusion. Orangeburg is great county and Its people are the very salt of tho earth, but would It be good for Bamberg and Calhoun to be taken into Orangeburg? Suppose a law were enacted establishing a minimum wage of two dollars a day for cotton pickers and I'mitlng the day to eight hours?what would be the result" The farmers would "go broke." of course; but thinking of farm labor?what would happen" Three-fourths of the pickers would lose the opportunity to work. Why? Because $2 00 a day for eight hours would mean perhaps a fourhundred pound picking. Such picking la Impossible, perhaps, but very rare; mo9t pickers would be disqualified at once. No farmer can pay $20.00 a bale for ' picking, $6.00 for fertilizer, $4.00 for rent, $15.00 for labor, $8.00 for stock, feed, implements, and the like?a total of $49.00?not counting anything at all for the farmer, sell his cotton for $41 00 and thrive. All the labor which remains idle becomes a charge on the community. In time some men might become expert pickers; and machinery might be used; but society cannot be built on expert labor; it must find a place for the Inexpert, the ordinary and the inefficient. Every man must be allowed to "earn his keep." to pull his i own weight; and every enterprise must be encouraged to use all the kinds of labor we have. So when you pass laws fixing minimum pay and maximum hours you rule out all those who cannot produce that much, plus .some more for general expenses. Instead of helping the "poor man," artificial regulations work against him. Ho might earn a dollar and sustain himself; but if he must receive two dollars, while producing only one dollar, e'en that which he hath shall be taken away. A dictator may be a man of gentle manner, benevolent, charitable, liberal. generous, eloquent and persuasive. In fact, a dictator may be the most likable man, even the most lovable man. to those on the inside, his friends, his supporters and his puppets. Moreover, a dictator may be earnestly desirous to build his country. to deserve the plaudits of the people because of his public services. 1 served ten years under a dictator. He loved his country and he strove with all his means and all his ability to promote every good interest of his people I admired him; and I had a warm affection for hint. He was good to me; he wished to he good to everybody. What is a dictator? Not necessarily a bluff, harsh, cruel man of violeuce. Not a man of fierce mien and pirate's moustache, with sword and buckler, guns and pistols. More likely a dic tator is one who regards himself as tiie fount of Justice, the supreme apostle of righteous endeavor, and all that. And such a man may be Just and righteous. Hut is a nation to be gxiverned by the will of one man? The dictator believes in himself so supremely that he thinks his will, his ideas should prevail; he thinks himself and his ideas the standard by which all others must bo Judged. Those who disagree with him are wrong, unpatriotic, schemers, and the like. Even the courts and the lawmaking body must yield to the one, supreme benevolence which can brook J no rival. I served under such a dictator. All of us who served him were enthusiastic adherents of both the man and his administration; but what of those on the outside? Well, now, the world wasn't so reseate for them. They felt able to think for themselves; they felt a patriotic impulse to serve their country; they denied that their country or any other country was, or should be. dependent on the will of t ode man. even though he were Moses and the Prophets. Socrates, Solon and Demosthenee, all compounded then distilled into one eaaenoe. WHEAT INSURANCE COVER* CHOP L088, NOT PHICE LOSS 1/lko all illHUIUUCO companies, tbo Federal Crop Insurance Corporation ? In charge of the Government's program of "all-risk" wheat crop Insurance? Invests thy pryuiluin it receive* In a reserve. However, this reserve, unlike that of moat insurance Arms, 1* not carried in the form of bond* and mortgages. It 1* made up of actual wheat. The "all-wheat" feature of the wheat crop insurance program la regarded by aponnora of crop insurance aa one of the foundation atones In a simple and workable plan for Insuring growing wheat against all unavoidable hazards. In early uttempts to Insure crops, policies Insured the farmer's crop at a given value. Thus price changes, which may occur rapidly, frequently upset the "odds" or the actuarial data on which the Insurance rates were established. Insurers found themselves paying for price losses as well as crop losses. I'nder the Foderal crop Insurance program the price doesn't enter the picture. The grower Insures a given number of bushels, he pays his premium In terms of hushelH, and the premiums are Invested in the reserve of wheat In storage. Changes In price of wheat do not affect the amount of insurance the farmer carries, nor the liability of the Insurance reserve. If I an insured farmer suffers a crop loss, ho may draw from the corporation enough wheat to bring his production up to the insured amount. If he prefers cash rather than actual wheat, the corporation may sell the grain at tin; current market aud give him the proceeds. The insurance reserve is In storage at warehouses located conveniently to tho regions in which crops are insured. Says South Now Gets Too Much Wash lug ton.?Administration spending policies "are draining off the wealth of tho more productive states of the north and west In favor of the j south," Representative llatesl H.-j j Mass ) said Federal grants in southern states ' are three, four and seven times fedI era I tax collections from those states, he told the House. "This has result* ' ed in the south offering tax oxoinpj tlons for periods or three to fifteen : years to new industries." "Under the New Deal" Hales added, wo have had a tremendous wave of expenditure of public money in many of the slates at the expense of impoverishing others." Ho declared tho "government's redistribution of Income" was based "on political pressure and not tho national advantage." WOODLANDS OF COUNTY GAMAGED BY PINE BEETLE The woodlands of the county have suffered much damage recently as a result of pine beetle attacks. Beetle | attacks uro qule readily noticeable in the woodlands of the county und are characterized by a yellowing of the. needles, also by the presence of a number of small pitch tubes that appear on the trunks of the infested trees. There are numerous ways in which pine beetle Infestations begin. | Often times Infestations result when' I a single tree is struck by lightning thus weakening its vitality to' the extent that beetles gain an entrance and multiply rapidly by feed-1 ing on the Injured tree. Soon the beetles Increase to such an extent that they are able to spread to adjoining healthy trees which may result In a spread to epidemic proportions. Infestations also often result, where single trees or groups of trees' are cut during the summer months.' It is tho common belief that pine beet-j les are attracted by the fermenting sap of freshly cut or injured pine trees. Pine beetle attacks are more likely to occur on dry ridges where j soil has become thin. Trees growing; in such places are not as a usual thing' very healthy and are unable to throw ' off pine beetle attacks. It is suggested that where a pine beetle Infestation first makes its ap-J pea ranee that all trees showing signs of Infestation be cut and completely-!removed, including the tops, from the; area. It is also advisable to peel the! bark from the stump as the pine beetle actually feeds between the bark and the wood. landowners discovering beetle in-1 Testation in their woodlands should' immediately take steps to remove infested trees. Any infestations of large proportions should be reported to the' district forester In Camden, who, uponj request, will be glad to examine the area and recommend steps necessary to halt the spread. HOW EARTH IS WEIGHED In one sense it Is quite impossible to determine the weight of the earth. That Is because the weight of a body is the force with which the earth attracts It. However, the mass of a body Is the amount of matter which It contains, and this has been determined for the earth. To find the mass of a small object, such as a brick, we may put it on the' scalos and weigh It. For large quan-j titles, such as the ore obtained from j a mine, the volume of the material may be found and the average weight of samples taken from different parts; determined; and the mass Is the vol-J ume times the average weight of a unit quantity of the ore. The earth offers a different problem. Obviously, it cannot be put into a bal-, ance pan; and average samples are not obtainable because man has not penetrated much more than 1-400 of the distance to the earth's center. One' method that may be used for determining the earth's mass Is by means' of a torsion balance. A torsion balance Is an Instrument! by means of which small forces are measured by noting the torion or ( twisting they produce in a fine wire! or a delicate fiber of quartz. By means of a torsion balance, the attractive power of a pair of large; leaden spheres on two 'little balls Is > determined. Then the attractive force of the earth on the same little balls Is found by weighing them In an or-J dlnary balance. Gravitation Is the mutual attraction; between masses of matter and every' mass Is atraeted to every other mass' with a force varying directly with the! product of their masses and inversely} with the squares of their distance! apart. Consequently, after we have; found the attractive force exerted on the little balls by the leaden spheres and by the earth, these atractlons being proportional to the masses, we may use this to calculate the mass of the earth. 9ueh experiments indicate that the earth is 5,527 times as heavy as water, and that it has a mass of approximately 6.000.000.000,000.000 tons. a. Two Marines Held In Death Of Jennings j Norfolk; Va, July SI ?Two youiui ' e nil a tod meu attached to the Marine corps unit aboard the aircraft carrier.

Meanwhile, police sent to the FBI at Washington prints found in the death room. Hartsville Visited By Heavy Rainstorm Hartsville, Aug. 2.?Hartsville reslidents surveyed today the damage caused by a cloudburst yesterday during which an estimated 4 1-2 inches of rain fell within one hour. Water covered the streets and rose in basements and ground floors in some stores, cau sing damage to stocks. Several trees were blown down and two homes were struck by lightning. A large plate glass window In one store was blown In. The two hour rainfall was estimated at 5 inches. It was Hartsville's second storm within a week. Nazi have intensified their efforts to overcome a shortage of raw materials and labor In Germany's rearmament and economic solf sufficiency program with a new drive to collect scrap Iron and by training women to take over men's jobs.
