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?

AN OPEN LETTER
John L. 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.
