It's not easy to take. But It Is for your best Interest and for the welfare of your children. - State Derives Large Beer Tax [ Columbia, Jan. 20.?-Imposition of an additional three-mill tax on all property In 8outh Carolina wonld be necessary If the state lost the Income that it is now receiving from the legalized sale of beer alone, official figures disclosed here today. Records of the state Lax commission show that for the last fiscal year the exclae and license taxes on beer produced $1,248,365.35 while the threemill property tax, also levied for the support pf schools, brought In $1,117,315'according to the budget commission report, which has Just been made public. For the 1941 calendar year, the state tax commission reports that beer tax Income to South Carolina was $1,668,000." In addition to the direct taxation, the beer Industry, through the wholesalers and retailers in the state, contributed heavily in the state's support through the payment of other taxes? ordinary property taxes, income taxes and corporation license fees. It is estimated that the industry gives direct employment to more than 3,000 j parsons, j Of the revenue that beer brought to South Carolina, its cities and counties in the last fiscal year, more than $920,000 went into the state treasury for the Bupport of the state school system and the payment of teachers' salaries. The remainder was apportioned. accordng to law, among the counties and the incorporated cities and towns. Mustard King Dies Ixindon.

Purpose of the victory book campaign la to collect glfta of booka lor old lera. sailors and marlnea. ft la sponsored nationally by the Anwic*?

Tiro Thieves Aro Working at Speed (Continued mom first pegs) cars be kept tightly locked when left unoccupied. It is not sufficient to Just lock the Ignition, but the doors should also be locked. Mrs. Zemp's car was left In front of her home on Fair street Monday night and while the ignition was locked. the car was made away with because it was possible for some one to get into the macine and steer it while others in the gang pushed it. The most effective method to combat tire thieves is to keep the car in a garage behind locked doors. Even then, it Is *ise to have car doors and ignition locked. Sheriff J. H. McLeod. who is investigating the tire thefts in Camden and vicinity, declared that the suggestion of the Chamber of Commerce that motorists record the serial numbers and the make of the tires on their cars is excellent one. He stated that in the thefts so far reported, the owners of the stolen tires had not made any record of the aerial numbers and in some instances did not even recall the make of tire. Sheriff McLeod stated that the mea sure now before the legislative body at Columbia providing for a prison sentence of not less than two years or more than ten years for persons convicted of tire theft was a splendid law and It is also his earnest hope that the measure receives an early passage. "I believe that when this- law becomes effective It will be a great deterrent to the activities of the tire | thieves. Unless sonle measure like this Is taken, the tire theft racket is going to become almost as widespread as did the liquor traffic during the prohibition period." 1 BUY Your Fertilizers NOW Let us figure with you on your fertilizer requirements for the cqming season.

January JO?Coleman L. Bleaae. 73. who aa governor laaued ! nearly 3.000 pardons and aa U.- 8. senator wdfr finalterably opposed to the League^b^ Nations, died last night. Prom 1830 to 1938 Blease was a perennial candidate for public office. He often said that he was'elected to sore posts than any other man of his time, but his political enemies said he was defeated more than any titber man. <, -'V Governor for two two-year terms until 1918. his free use of pardon power brought him nation-wide notice. One i of the last sets of his administration j was a blanket pardon for many bun-i dreds of persqfns free foil parole. As senator he told his colleagues with reference to the pardons, particularly those givep negroes, that "they were p6or and helpless, with no one to speak for them, no money to hire lawyers, no money to circulate petitions. no money to have friends come! Into the governor's office and make appeals for them. Some of. them serv-! ed for years and years for the very smallest offenses." He served in that office from 1928 to 1931. Blease bitterly opposed America's entry into the first World War and was a constant challenger of President I Wilson's policies; Including the 'League. President Wilson In 1917 ap| pealed directly to South Carolina voters, asking Blease's defeat in his race j for the senate, the senate seat was vacated by the death of Benjamin R. Tillman. Blease carried his disregard of party regularity into the senate, where, early in 1926, he prevented a senate vote on a resolution of adherence to the world court by conducting a oneman filibuster. A year later, discussing party organization! Blease told South Carolina newspapermen that he did not belong to the Democratic party, "If by the party Is meant the caucus In Washington that tries to dictate how I should vote." In January; 1915. he startled the state by resigning a week before the expiration of his second term as gov-T ernor. The notice, written In red ink* *88 cheered by the legislature. An earlier skirmish with' the war department over the disposition of militia led to an executive order immediately before his resignation, disbanding the entire slate national guard. The order was rescinded by Gov. Richard 1. Manning, his successor. In 1890 he was elected to the state house of representatives and served until 1898. He was speaker pro-tem two years. Later he was state senate. twice served as presidential elector. He became mayor of Newberry in 1910 and resigned to accept the governorship. In private life he was a skillful criminal lawyer. His last race was for governor in 1938. Blease was born near Newberry, October 8, 1868. the son of Henry j Horatio and Mary A. Livingston I Blease. He attended Newberry Col lege, the University of South Carol-na and Georgetown University in Washington, graduating in law In 1898. He was twice married. ( An unemployment compensation commissioner, Blease underwent an intestinal operation Sunday. He was admitted Saturday to Providence hospital. Surviving include a half-brother, Eugene S.
