COMMENT8 ON MEN AND THINGS
(By Spectator)
A abort sesglou? Yea, comparatively
abort, but lasting until the latter
part of April. Why? JJecauae wo aroj
geared to alow action. The whole(
session could be over in fonr weeks
ao fur ua necessary action la concern- J
ed. So why not? The fault la not
entirely the Legislature's; we outsid-j
era pluy a part. Hero's how it works, |
I taking the legislators and the outsld-i
era together; The Ways and Means |
I Committee of the House is meeting,
u week before the regnlar session, ip
order to prepare the Appropriation
Bill. Remember that all the State
services, colleges?and what not?
hav^ilready submitted their requests
for the next fiscal year, sometimes
well-padded, probably, so as to Jockey
around and finally Biibmlt to a cut,
getting too much any how. The report
of the Budget Commission Is at
hand, but all this Jockeying goes on
again, the services trying to get larger
figures, or to hold those already
too large. Then, after all sorts of
special clatniB are presented for variuos
services by members of the General
Assembly3 (who are more Interested
In those services than a legislator
should be) the Committee brings
out u bill and presents It to the
House.
If the Committee has done a good
Job, tho friends of all sorts of services
rush In to increase the items,
or add new Items (or both), one
group making a deal with another so
us to force something. Right there
| begins the delay. In course of time
somo one rises to si>oak for the taxpayers
and makes a fight on these
new things Ordinarily the taxpayers
back home sit back and take it 1>itig
down", knocked out in the first
round Not always. however, and
sigus point to greater vigilance and
aggressiveness on the part of the taxpayers.
As the session* drags along?oftentimes
because the committee * won t
meet, or the members won't attendsome
one comes forward with a bright
scheme like a persion for the teachers.
That, they think, will command
a big following because of the very
active lobbying done by and for the
teachers, together with the ambition
of a few members-to pose as champions
of light and liberty. Then, again,
the aroused taxpayers take a hand.
After a couple of weeks the House
sends the bill to the Senate. What
happens? Does the Senate discuss
it and act on it? No! The Senate
sends the bill to its Finance Committee.
which proceeds with notable deliberation,
after letting the bill soak
in its own juice for several weeks.
And that deliberation is based on another
hearing (the third, mark you)
of all the spenders. Again the old
game is on: to raise the figures or
hold the figures which are already
too lngh Again the same maneuvers:
friends, more friends, a little wirepulling
here, a wee bit o? persuasion
.*u..e_anj on. Then the Senate,
on*- fully persuaded, what the last
dollar is thai can be aqueez.
< fro:u tar taxpayers, not the instiions.

FORT MILL THEATER
DE8TROYED BY FIRE
Thy now Majestic theater In Kurt
Mill, which had boon in uso only
since ia?t March, waa burned between
2 and 3 o'clock Saturday morning
The blaze which doatruyod tho theater
apparently spread from the boiler.
Following what waa described by
several as an explosion in the building,
the ilaines spread rapidly. The
tiro department responded promptly
to the alarm, but was unable to subdue
the llames.
* I). C. Patterson And J. II. Patterson,
brothers, were operators of the
theater. The building was owned by
Sinclair Stewart of Charlotte. J. H.
Patterson stated that the equipment
of the theatre, all Pradically new,
was valued at about $10,000 and was
Insured. Whether there waa insurance
on the building The Times could not
ascertain.
Tuesday adjusters of fire insurance
companies with which the insurance
on the equipment was carried came
to Fort Mill to confer with the Messrs.
Patterson relative to their loss.
Following the conference. J. K. Patterson
said he hoped the construction
of a building to replace th? burned
one would be under way within a few
days.
Except for the front and a small
section of a side wall, the walls of
the burned building appear not to be
greatly damaged. Whether these
walls will be used in reconstruction
thfe. theatre will be determined after
tests of their strength have been
made.?Fort Mill Times.
The best place to regain the road
when your right front wheel runs off
the edge into a soft shoulder is at a
point where the road and shoulder are
at approximately the same level.
An Oriental spy found all his films
blank after a tour through an airplane
factory because technicians had
sulj^ected his camera to an X-ray

that ?
The correction of the i>ostage and
other subterfuges would amount to
a few thousand dollars?not a big
sum in this day of splendiferous outpouring
of the taxpayers' money, but
it would have a wholesome effect,
^yhat we need most urgently is?a
calm, thorough-going study of all our
public services .including our colleges
and schools. Let's do what we can
do well, within our means, and cut
off the rest. There is no sense in operating
a lot of services on a starvation
basis, l-et's do a few things and
do tlaem well.
What should be the scope of our
State institutions of learning, including
our schools? Are we overlapping?
Are we ambitiously carrying
on some Ill-conceived- courses? Are
we worshipping the fetish of some
mode without an appropriate evaluation
of those things to us?
Vigorous, resourceful, but informed !
and understanding, leadership is pur
most votal need. Instead of trying
to understand what the Institutions
want our leaders should concentrate
on the means of the people.
