Norembet t If4J COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS (By Spectator) Recently two great religious bodies met In the Piedmont. Over in Anderson the Baptist of South Carolina hold their annual convention, while in Greenville the Upper South Carolina Conference of the Methodist Church met. Just a few days before the meetings in Greenville and Anderson the South Carolina Conference met in Bennettsville. These religious bodies of our State are a large and important part of our people devoted to the things which abide through storm and tempest, inflation or deflation, war or peace. The superficial trends of life, our petty ambitions, vanities and aspirations, look insignificant in comparison with the enduring qualities of the spirit. Nowhere is our liberty more cherished or more surely safeguarded than by our religious organisations which recognize no master save the Eternal, teach us to live in love and charity with all men; to accord to constituted authority its due need of^respect and deference; but not to cringe before j worldly power; nor bow the knee in suppliance save to the Lord of Hosts. The pulpits of our churches are a bulwark, of liberty, just as are a free press and an untrammelled radio. The church is the refuge of all. To it come the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the high and the low, the strong and the weak. Here all meet upon a common level of sonship; and with the ministrations of the church all look forward to the call which takes no account of class or rank, but which summons all to join the army of the redeemed as it marches before the Throne. These great groups meet for no program of immediate interest. They J netiher advocate nor oppose many matters commonly occupying our thought; they seek firs{ to promote the Kingdom of God and His right-, eousness, knowing that all these other things will be added. r ? There are so many choice spirits in . public life, so many gonial, companionable rrton; ami so many highminded, socially sensitive folk among| those who recommend and press for] larger appropriations, that an attitude of unfavorable criticism is both dlffl | cut and unpleasant. I should like to share in the general apathy, or join the chorus of pvaise; so when 1 find myself in tune with the majority I experience a thrill of satisfaction As a sort of Jeremiah, greatly against my inclination, 1 am with the majority, but it is the great mass whose dissatisfaction is not so vocal as is the eloquence of those who seek something. I rejoice with those who commend the attitude of our leaders of State. Governor Harley sounded a note of wise caution In urging that we keep in mind the temporary character of our industrial boom. His suggestion that we keep something in store for the rainy day is eminently wise. It is the homely philosphy which guided our people In the days of hard work and small earnings. Our people who have something did not spend their| way Into prosperity. We know that only through spending, or sowing, does one reap, but the difference belt* f tween spending productively and spending consumptively seems almost forgotten. We can accumulate capital only by spending less than we earn. This is not as popular as it once was; we are inclined to think that if one can pay as he goes he has done so well he need not concern himself about sickness or loss of employment. The public will be quick to applaud the joint statement of Jefferies, Blatt and Smith. Mr. Jefferies is the presiding officer of the senato nnd chairman of the finance committee of that body. He is also a member of the Budget Commission. Mr. Blatt is Speaker of the House, a very active | and resourceful leader of that numerous body. Mr. Smith is chairman of the ways and means committee of the house, the committee which holds the purse strings. He is also a member of the budget commission. These . gentlemen have announced that they! endorse the inaugural address and will support the Governor in his advocacy of a short session, of biennial sessions, of a policy of careful spending, having in mind the inevitable letdown, following this boom. All this talk of a boom sounds fantastic to my friends in the agricultural community where I live. Where is the boom? They see it in part: what they buy has mounted as on the wings of eagles, but they themselves have had short crops of salable commodities. Cotton and tobacco commanded good prcies but the crop was short. A farm associate came to see me Saturday. He has corn and hay to sell. Everything is booming, he has heard. Well, he is offered sixty Ave cents a bushel for his corn and has no offers for his hay. That Is what operates against diversification. Spe'ct&tor hasn't said much about the war recently because he didn't know what to say. In a broad, general survey we see the desirability of helping Russia; we see the good which might result from an Invasion of France by England so as to divide Hitler's forces. Most of us ^rmchair strategists see that. What we don't know is the mass of detail necessary to do al lthat we think ought to be done. Drawing on my impressions from thi' First World War 1 doubt it the. Hrltish could hold their own against i the Germans, even it they succeededIn landing in France In full force and! with all necessary equipment. In the; first world war the Hermans repeat-J edly won over the lirltlsh, French,. Italians and Russians, with the Japanese on the side of the Allies, and at the end of three and a half years had virtually won every mapor engagement, except Verdum and tho Marne. And even then the Germans were always able to attack at will at any point on the entire front. Those who want the Hrltish to rush over with an army don't remember the other war. Tho first world war began In August 1914, but In March, 1918, the Germans cut the British Fifth army to pieces and were almost at the English Channel. But for the American help thereafter, together with unity of command, the war might possibly have been lost. Perhaps I am falling to give credit to tho revolution in Germany Itself. That, more than( defat on the field, brought about the German surrender. Unless the German people back home break under the strain I can't see how the German military machine | 1 can be overcome decisively unless five million men are prepared to attack from the West, with tanks, planes, guns an dnmmultllon in quantities almost incredibly great. We are superior to the Germans and can overcome them, but it will take all the men and means we have, if we mean business. "When the frost Is on the punkln and tho fodder's In tho shock" has been ringing in my ears these mornings. Riley, whom we used to read, knew nil about the pepetratnig colli of a a big frost. One morning recently I started out at five o'clock in morning. I didn't think much about "punkins"; I was plenit fully occupied with how the frost was nipping me. And along the way the dairymen were hauling off their milk. Say, farming is bad enough, but suppose you were a dairyman?

Lewis: The present looks like h mighty bad time for you to call a strike. We realize that you have the power to wrap labor around your little finger and flip it about as you please. This country of ours is also your country and it is likewise tho country of labor. If we destroy America.... we will destroy labor and capital and oursolves insofar as being a free people is concerned. We know labor has to do what you tell it to do. We believe in organized labor. It would not be fair to labor not to be organized. But if capital were to say to labor: "Well, boys, we don't like tho work you are doing. We are not making any money, so we are going to strike, close up, shut down and quit. We'll see you later." Reckon what you and labor would think of such a move? You seem to want all of the profits and take nono of the losses. That doesn't seem quite fair. When a man Joins a labor union he is longer his own master. He comes and goes as you tell him, that is?if he is a C. I. O. He can't make a living unless he Joins tho union and ho doesn't make a living while he is striking. Wo have often wondered that if over 10 percent of labor really wanted to walk out at their leaders beck and call. Many of them might want to work on even if they are not making but $7. or $8. per 8 or 7 'dr 6 hours. Wonder if the mothers aDd wives and children of the strikers enjoy strikes. It is possible that many strikes are Justified. If no sensible agreement can be entered into between labor and capital, it might take a strike to bring the question to head. But now, of all times, is not the time to fuss and fume over a few hours or a few dollars, no matter which side has the cofhplaint. It looks like grown men, business ir.en and labor leaders, could settle their differences without giving Hitler thQ- __ long end of the rope. We imaging that when you call a big strike?that ties up defense work..Hitler and his satalites have a big party and enjoy our American troubles. BUjt ; there's nothing the public can do abopt your Btrikes. You're the boss. WofTt you try to hold them off until this war Is won? You can't serve two mas. ters: you must choose between America and Hitler, that Is?if you bars not already chosen the latter.
