Clybum Smith To
Return To Pofitics
After War Is Over
Former Otjr Official Returns
To Vote In Electum.
Clybum Smith, alderman of the
third ward for the past two years, but
who has been engaged in defense work
at the United States Navy yard at
Charleston, is definitely not out of
politics just because he did not offer
for re-election this year.
Smith, who returned to Camden
last week-end to spend several days
with his family and remain to cast his
ballot In the city election Tuesday,
requested that he be quoted as say
ing that the reason he did not offer
for re-election was due to a desire on
his part to have his ward represented
in the conncil by some one who is
living in Camden. **I am In this de-
duratlon of the war and that I may
not come out for a year or so,” be
said. ‘‘Hence, I feel that it was bet
ter to keep oat of local politics this
year. I certainly ^'intend to offer for
office when the war is over.”
THANKS TO THE VOTERS
To the Voters of Ward Two:
1 wish -to express - in this -way- my.
appreciatlon for the splendid support
given me in the first prlnrary, and I
vote in the second primary on Tues
day, March 21.
Yours very tivly,
Roy Mathis.

In Brush With the OPA
(Continued from first page)
milk subsidy for North and South
Carolina has been raised from 40 to
80 cents per hundred pounds, or per
hundred weight, which is equivalent
to three and a half cents per gallon.
The change in subsidity is retro-
activo from March 1, Md wiU in
clude April. Seaso^nal reduction for
May. June, July md August is ex
pected. but It is yet Uncertain as to
Just what this wiH be. In September
the shme sudsidy of 80 cents will again
be enforced and will probably remain
BO for the rest of 1844.
In analysing the action, that In
reality went into effect Saturday
nighL the fact that the paymenta per
hundred-weight had been doubled, ap
peared on the surface to be a decided
victory. It was yet uncertain as to just
what the ultimate effect would be.
What the new order means is that
every dairyman who produces and
delivers 100 pounds of fluids mUk will
be paid 80 cents by the Food admin
istration thereon, which can be used
to buy feed and other production
articles.
