And in the school lunch program
throughout this country.
In-bis resolutiou Mr. Kennedy pitee
that at present carrots from Californ
ia, potatoes from Maine and sweet
potatoes from North Carolina are be
ing shipped into this state for use
in lunch menu. All these commodi-
ties are being raised • in this state.
The sweet potato, according to Mr.
Kennedy is one of the finest foods
known and a great opportunHy is
now offered to Introdiice Ms um
throughout the country and abroad
thus assuring a future nmrket for one
of our most easily produced farm
crops.
In the resolution ijertalning to pulp-
wood it is cited that the salb of pulp-
wood has reached the proportions of
big business in South Carolina, that
it is one> of the greatest remaining
natural resources, that prices receiv-
ed by land owners for the pulpwootf
on their holdings plays an Imi^ant
part in the economic life of the state,
that quality considered. South Caro
lina pulpwood is as valuable as sim
ilar products in other parts of the
nation, that the office of price ad
ministration has set ceilibg prices
for pulpwood in South Carolina which
reflects gross discrimination as com
pared with the prices in other sec-
tions and that difference in ceiling
prices as of recent date range from
17.(0 per cord for pine and |8.10 per
cord for hardsrood to as high as
113.25 per cord for pine and $14.75
per cord for hardsrood in New Bng-
Und.

Camden high school cagers scored
the biggest upset of the current sea
son when they walloped the much-
touted Bisbopville Dragons on the
local floor before the largest crowd
of the season Tuesday nigbt, 8( to 28.
Several score of Bisbopville fans
who had motored over for the gsrae
were glassy-eyed as they witnessed
the downfall of their home qnlatet.
Bisbopville had previously routed
Camden in the bailiwick of Dpd
Blanchard 45 to 20.
The attack on the Dragons was led
by Huggins who received brilliant
cooperation from Little, who played
a magnificent game at center, Delma
Parker, Jimmy Cox and Ted Melton.
This year’s Camden team ia prac
tically a rookie outfit aa Hnggina la
the only member to have played laat
year. The boys, rated aa a bush-
league outfit, were like the Bulldog
football team of 45, a^ fighting scrap
ping outfit and they finished the
regular- schedule with six wins as
against three defeats. Their setbacks
came from Sumter, tbe Gamecocks
winning two games and from Bishop-
ville. The Dragon win was wiped out
Tuesday by the upset win of the Bnll-
dogs.
Camden entered the state tourna
ment at Sumter this week, meeting
the powerful Greenwood team at
5:30 p. m. Greenwood was a heavy
favorha. due to the presence on the
squad of a ( foot 8 inch center.
Next Monday Pierce wHl have his
football quad out for spring workouts.
Already some 56 boys have reported
for the practice workouts which will
cover a three weeks period.
OUR SERVICE MEN
S-lc Johnny M. Turner of South
Minor street, Kershaw, reutmed to
the states February 23 on board the
U. S. Lewanee, which left Guam Feb.
9 and docked at ’Frisco, Feb. 23.
The cotton market In Camden has
been a topic of criticism in some
circles for several years. One of the
main points streas^ is the lack of
stITficient platform space for weigh
ing and loading. Congestion around
the existing Jilatform is quite a bottle
neck on busy days during the cotton
season.
Tbe proper time for active steps
to be taken to Improve this situation
is now, before the season gets under
way. General opinion is that the Cam
den market is not a county problem
bnt a city one. In other words the
officials, believe that county funds
should not be used to erect a cotton
platfordi in Camden any more than
any other town in the county. ’There
fore, the responsibility for providing
and maintaining an efficient cotton
platform in Camden lies with the city
officials, the Camden merchants and
tbe Camden cotton buyers.
The advantages to be derived from
a large active market of this type are
well recognized by the business In
terests in Camden. However, the lack
of action on the iiart of any individ
ual or group is deplorable. If no ac-
tion is being planned for this year
by individuals then it is high time
that collective action be planned and
executed.
Tour Chamber of Commerce will
be glad to cooperate in the organiza
tion and dev^opment of plans de
signed to improve tbe standing of
our cotton market. It is inexcusable
that cotton grown in the vicinity of
Camden should be carried elsewhere
and sold. That is Just like taking
money out of Camden pockets and
carrying it to other towns.
