(Continued from first page)
written statAnent, no provision has
been made yet In any^ of the reports
for river improvement for Camden
other than such as might follow the
construction of Buckingham Landing
dam, and It seems to me the needs of
the communities Involved are so great
that consideration should be given to
a dredging and diking project. #
“As 1 understand Document No. 189
of the Sedond Session of the 78th
Congress dealing with the Santee
river, the Buckingham Landing dam
would not be constructed for many
years and for that reason navigation
benefits by dams upstream on the
Broad river and dredging In the^on-
garee river would afford navigation
of 8 fret depth to Columbia. It would
see that the same thing can be ac
compllshed on the Wateree river and
regardless of the final report of the
Buckingham Landing dam, river tm
provement benefits could be extended
along the Wateree river as well as
the Congaree.
“If I understand the sltnatton cor-
rertly you would have authority under
the law and latest instructions to
study the Buckinghm Landing dam to
Include river improvements on the
Wateree in the same report and I
most respectfully request your con
sideration for this Important matter,”
Copies of Mr, Jeffries letter have

Savage, Jr., Senator W, T, Redfeam

RADAR

I, . •
The BwiI System—
The largest source of Radar
for our fighting forces
HIS is not surprising for Radar development
and production stems from the same roots that pro
duced and continue to nourish this country’s telephone
system.
Radar, the instrument which enabled our land, sea
and air forces to spot enemy targets through darkness,
smoke or iogt was one of the outstanding new fighting
instruments of the war.
Two years'* before Pearl Harbor’ the Government
asked Bell Telephone LAhoratories to put its wide
«xperience and knowledge of electronics to work to
help perfect Radar as a military instrument. From then
on the Laboratories co-operated closely in the Radar
program with the National Defense Research Commit
tee, with Army and Navy specialists, and with scientists
of Great Britain.
The Western Electric Company, manufacturing
branch of the Bell System, became the Nation’s largest
supplier of Radar systems. One type it made was uni-
verMlly used by B-^’s in the Pacific for navigation,
target location and high altitude bombing. Another
played an important part in aiming the gnns on onr
wrarahipe. /
11 you’re waiting for a home telephone, it helps n
little to know that Radar is one of the reasons. For
years telephone inanufaclaring planu were devoted
to vmr needs.

Conservation ot natural resources
—that phrase has a modem touch to
it, and yet we would do well to turn
back to the story of Joseph in Egypt
and learn anew the importance of
not wasting what .we have.^if we are
to be fed in the days of shortage.
Certain it is that we should face
at once the shameful record of
waste in the manufacture and sale
of intoxicants. This is temperance
Sunday. Let us not fail to stress this
truth.
Joseph recognized the provision of
God and made use of it for His glory
and the good of the people.
I. Food—God’s Provision (w. 46-
49).
As men work with God in the cul
tivation of the land they are apt
to begin to think of themselves as
producers, when they are actually
only the servants of the Lord in the
orderly care of that which He pro
vides.
We need to renew our sense of
complete dependence up>on God lest
we become proud of our own sup
posed attainments and forget Him.
Then He will have to withhold His
bountiful hand imd we -shall stand
with empty measures. ....
Rememt^r, too, that what God
has given to feed the nations cannot
with impunity be used for the man»-
facturc of intoxicating beveragea
which are designed and used for no
good purpose—only for ’ destruction.
Let’s not forget that God oould tend
us a famine, too!
The manner in which Joseph cared
for the gathering of the grain is
worth noting. He did not sit in hla
royal office and send out an edict.
He went throughout the land build
ing storehouses, seeing fiiat tha
grain was properly conserved.
We need more of that personal
touch in government. Too much of
life is controlled by “directives” and
“rules” with too little of the touch
of human kindness and a personal
knowledge of the needs of the peo
ple. ^
Observe also the vRldom of stor
ing the food in the place where it
was raised and where it would
eventually be needed. No shipping
and re-shipping, no undue centraliza
tion, and no temptation to form a
special “grain bureaucracy.”
n. Family-God’s Gift (w. 50-92).
From among the Gentiles, Josej;:^
took himself a bride. While it is
not indicated, we have ^reason to as
sume that she was a believer in the
true Ood. One cannot Imagine a
man of Joeej^’s chara^r and spir
itual integrity marrying an uid>e>
liaver.
The sons which came into the
home were recognized as God’s gift.
Note how God was counted into the
lift of these boys and ci fire home.
We. spoke above about the naed
of conserving -grain. Think now of
tha infinitely more important con
servation of boys and girls.
I^e liquor interests have used thil
war to Create a taste for beer on
the part of millions of yoimg man
and women, both in the armed serv
ices and in our war plants. They
have broken down the objections and
the religious principles of many and
we are almost at the point where
one vdio objects is regarded as a
foolish fanatic.

use her grain to mfJee booz^ do

m. Famine — God’s Opportunity
(w. 63-57).
Now the time had come when
God’s word to Joseph was proved to
be true. When His loyal servant
stood before the world as the one
who was in touch with the infinite
One, he had the food to give out
because he had obeyed God’s com
mand.
It is in the crises of life that the
things of God prove themselves.
When, man’s hand drops in weak
ness and despair, God stepa in and
does the abundant thing; that is, if
we are willing to recognize ffim.
Thera it another’’senss in
the oomiag of famine was God’s op

On page 1 of ibis issue of the

department against the U turns s4
downtown intersetions, agsinst double
parking on the streeu and against
parking in the bus stop zones.
“A lot of autoists are going to get
mad when we start enforcing these
regulations,” said Chief Rush, “but
with the bus service now in operation,
we have got to keep the streets clear
of parked cars, also have^the bus stops
clear and put a stop to the practice of
making U turns in the downtown
area.”
The chief sUted that there have
been many complaints of double park
ing, especially on Saturdays when
traffic is the heaviest. He pointed
out that all police officers will be
instructed to arrest violators of any
of the regulations above mentioned.
