"Bishop Sam" Of
Early Branch Dies
Manila, June 4?"DiBhop" Sam
Brown, gun-totlng Negro evangelist
among the head-hunting tribesmen of
the Phllllpplnes, is dead.
Belated dispatches from the mountain
wilds 200 miles north of Manila
said Bishop Sam died last week but
did not give the cause. He was a
strapping, coal-black Early Branch,
South Carolina, Negro, 61 years old
and had a FU\p\no -wife and six children.
Sam Brown came to the Phllllpplnes
uh a United States soldier In
the Spanslh-Amerlcan war. After the
hostlltles he was mustered out at
San Francisco. But he returned to
the Islands to preach the gospel
among the 6,000,000 non-Chrlstlans of
the archipelago.
He created what he called the NonChrlstlan
Tribes Church of the
Phllliplnes, elected himself bishop
and went forth alone to preach the
doctrine of brotherly love among the
sutuge and semi-clvlllzed tribes
which lbng have nursed grievances
against the white Christians.
Bishop Sam used a combination of
slang and Scripture on hiH prospective
converts. He referred to women
as "skirts", was adept at cussing
when the occasion seemed to require
it and took a nip of liquor now and
then.
"The non-Christian tribes believe
they have been gypped by the lowland
Christians." Bishop Sam used to
tell the whites.
"They say the Christians drove
them back to the mountains from
their old hunting and fishing grounds.
Maybe this causes them to go headhunting.
"Give the tribesmen land that
won't he taken from them. Cllve
them Brotherly love and not bullets.
Give them understanding, and
schools. When this is done the tribesmen
will ho peace-loving, good citizens."
Bishop Sam spoke Spanish, English
and four of the principal Philippine
dialects.
A year ago he told how he had
talked to a girl of the Ilongot tribe
about the Iniquity of sending their
men out to collect babies' heads or
arms as gifts for their brides.
"Well." said Bishop Sam, "thl?
skirt said to her, she wouldn't send
her man out for a head. I told her
to spread the word around among
the other gals and I'm sure the one?
she talked with won't want any head?
for wedding gifts."

OLD AGE PENNON SEEKERS
TOLD TO HALT PAVWENT
Tflere Is h bit of news coming out
of York county as the Yorkville Ku
qulrer reports of advices being given
the old of tl'o Htute to stop contributing
to the F. M. Easterlin
"dream money" fund from which he
uHHiiroH the old folk that they will
get a pension. Thia ia significant
since this nowapuper bluntly told the
otd folk of the county that, the
Knsterltn plan is a fake and thAt'they
were contributing their money to a
horn-swagger. Although, we were
criticise^ ut the time from some quarters
we ure Htlll of the same opniou
now as wo were thep.
The Yorkville Euquirer, a newspaper
whose statements of fact is always
considered reliable, has this to
say about Easterlin and his plan,
"The chairman of a legislative committee
investigating the activities of
the Old Age Pension Association of
Kouth Carolina called upon the old
people of the state to refrain from
contributing any more money to the
organization until completion of the
investigation.
"Representative Harold King of
Oconee said the committee, of which
he is chairman, felt Justified in making
the request. He added that the
committee through its Investigators
had received considerable information
regarding the collection and disposal
of large sums of money.
"Members of the committee are
King, Representative McDow of York,
Representative Hubert Yarbopough or
Florence, Representative Troy Davis
of Anderson and Representative C. H.
Gresham of Greenwood.
"Officers of the Ola Age Pension
Association are F. M. Easterlin of
Spartanburg and S. S. Tlner of Spartanburg
and M. A. Moseley of Cowpens."
There is in existence in this county
a chapter of the Old Age Pension
Association. Many of the members
have contributed to the Easterlin Association
In a hope to buy pensions
or have their pension fight prosecuted.
The News warned against the
folly of the plan when Easterlin made
his first attempt to ballyhoo the old
folk of the county out of their money
several months ago. -?Lancaster

Ex-German Kaiser
Dies In Holland
Berlin, June 4?Former Kaiser Wilhelm
II of Imperial Germany died today
at.his exile eBtate of Doorn In tlie
quiet backwash of a new German conquest
almost 23 years after he fled
from the crumbling failure of his own
European war plan.
DNB, German official news agency,
reported from Amsterdam that the 82year-old,
white-beared former emperor
died at 11:30 A. M. in a sudden
relapse of an illness which brought
members of his family to his bedside
last week.
An intestinal disorder, complicated
at the last by a lung emboly, caused
his death.
Even in death, the "old man of
Doorn. is not to return to the land he
once ruled.
He is to be burled at Doorn next
Monday but. on orders of Adolf Hitler,
a military funeral with full honors
is to be accorded Imperial Germany's
last emperor.
The German high command has
taken full charge of the military
phase of the funeral, a token, perhaps
that reconciliation between the fuehrer
and the former emperor had been
complete.

Springs Says Put
Strikers in Detention
Rock Hill. June 9? Brigadier General
Holmes B. Springs, state selective
service director, told- the Junior
chamber of commerce today that
"we'd better wake up and keep America
for Americans before some other
nation steps in and takes control."
"If I had my way about it," Springs
said, "every man who tor any reason
strikes in a defense either
would go to a detention camp, go back
to work or get into the army.
He criticized the literacy eligibility
rule for service men and said, '"It s
unfair discrimination to tajie the best
for the army and leave out of it those
who haven't been to school. It's unfair
to those who do have to go. '
One out of every three who take
the army tests are rejected, he said,
because of their eyes, teeth or social
diseases.
Springs praised the churches for
what he called the high moral, spiritual
tone found in selectees.
He predicted that "80,000,000 would
be spent during the two months of
the army's fall maneuvers in 18 Carolina
counties and urged farmers to
grow extra supplies of vegetables and
live produce for sale and private consumption.

KUDZU PAY8 CHERAW MAN I
IT MERIT8 GOOD CARg I
Clemson, June 9. "Kudzu is just I
twice us good an anyone ever told as 9
it was", J. C. Terrell of Cheraw told I
B. C. Turner, extension soil conserve .9
tlon specialist. "From three acres of I
eight-year-old kudzu I cut last
three tons of choice legume hsv. j!
Then from 2 1-2 acres of the uai 4
land, I harvested and sold 44,000 kud- I
zu crowns for a cash return of $Mt. .1
From the culls I planted nine acroi 9
of additional kudzu on my own Jam- 9
If I had bought crowns to plant tkk9
nine acres, they would have coat mi 9
$25 at the ijrice I received for
crowns." j
From the remaining one-half acre 9
Mr. Terrell plana to tncreaae
planting to 50 acres, Turner says. *1
"The three-acre planting was grown ij
on Norfolk sand, and now he plans to 9
plant all the sandy soil on his farm f
to kudzu. The 2 1-2 . acres from I
which he harvested the 44,000 crowns I
is in good condition and will twzWk - 9
another hay crop this fall."
Turner reports that farmers co- .9
operating with soil conservation dli- M
trlcts planted 12,000 acres of kudiu 9
in the spring of 1941, and he advises
that it is necessary that the flrst^H
year's growth be kept clean, if it ls^|
to make its best development, for^H
young kudzu cannot Btand comyeU- 9
A special merit of kudzu il'llkfl
ability to stand drought conditions
like the present, Turner points out *
"If you look around you will find
nowhere is old kudzu suffering ftoo a
drought" he says. "So take c&re J
