NICE WORK MR. LANGSTON
fJ?
Perry R. Langston, councilman from the fifth ward, and
who drew the assignment as chairman of the police commit
tee, is doing a fine job by stream lining his police force and
forcing motoristB to comply with the traffic regulations. Al
ready over one hundred drivers who have disregarded traffic
lights, parked in no-parking areas, driven recklessly or at a
higher speed than what is allowable, or in some <^her fanner
violated the regulations, have paid their fines into the city
treasury.
The law enforcement officers are now walking beats, the
mounted traffic officers are hot on the tail of traffic violators,
and the motoring public is awakening to the fact that the good
old days when they could roll over the pavements at a mile
a minute, tear through red lights, park dn forbidden zones,
•etc., are gone fbreVer—we hope.
Naturally, there have been squawks, which was to be ex
pected, but all in all, the intelligent nootorists are extending
felicitations to the Police Commissioner for a fine job being
done and exprei^ng the fervent 'hope that the good work will
continue.

LEGITIMATE DISTRIBUTORS HANDICAPPED
While Congress discusses the future of OPA, black mar
kets spread. If they continue to spread, the legitimate retail
distribution industry cannot be expected to operate success
fully. -The threat k serious ehough to have a bearing on re
newing the Emergency Price Control Act. No law should be
allowed to work against retail distribution.
The Neiw York Times cites an instance of the black mar
ket problem—^beef. Says the Times: “With about 76 percent
of the nation’s beef at retail levels having passed to the con
trol of black marketers, the time is at hand when definite
steps should be taken to restore that essential product to legit
imate channels of trade if one of the world’s finest food dis
tributing S3rstems is not to be damaged irreparably.’’
If k is to be a choke between saving the OPA and saving
the distribution system, there is no alternative. The county
can live without the OPA; it cannot hve without orderly dis
tribution.
PULPWOOD GOES TO COLLEGE
THE CIRCUS IS NOW ON
V
The South Carolina Democratk circus opened its tour of
the state last week, playing engagements in Winnsboro and
Camden. The show is, if possible, even duller than usual and
attendance is expected to hit a new low. '
As every election year approaches we hear much talk of
abolishing the time-honored county-to-county tour of the Dem
ocratic candidates. Practkally everybody agrees that the tour
has long ago outlived its usefulness. In most places there are
Jmoce candidates than^bhere^are memberajof the audience. And
yet, when the state convention meets, it always decides to
have the usual tour. Why, no one knows.
A tremendous amount of expense and nerve strain would
be eliminated if this antdquated tour were abolished. The
candidates could carry their pleas to the voters in a much
more effective and more economkal way via Ihe radio and
the newspapers. Nbw, they are forced to make the burden
some tour in the heat of midsummer at heavy expense, and al
so spend a great deal of money in radio time and newspaper
advertising, if they expect to have a fair chance of nomination
This year, w|th eleven candidates for Governor, and the
usual quota of other office seekers, each meeting will requ^
around three and a half hours. It is aafu to predkt that at
most of these meetings there will be tSd one ^present to hear
the last few candidates. Human flesh can staWl just so much
and there are few persons strong enough to stand up under
three and a half hours of the type of hot air we are certain
to get from this group of politicians. ,
It is, of course, too late to do anything about it this year,
but the sensible Democrats should begin to ^ve the matter
some serious .thought and plan to end for all ^e this ridicul
ous political circus.—Sumter Item.

Many American farmers set aside a number of acres of
their woodland to send their children through college. ’These
acres of pulpwood, properly harvested over the years, pro
vide the ^ds for a college education for the farmer’s son or
daughter, or both.
This is not an unusual role for pulpwood. Known as the
one crop that can always be depended upon, it fits well into
the farmer’s plans to provide hk children with the finer ad
vantages of life. Such plans cannot be built on uncertainty,
and no one knows this better than the farmmr who can never
(^uite be certain about such things as the weather, soil condi
tions and the maiicet.
Thus, it is quite natural for the fanner to insure a college
fund 'for his children by turning to the one crop that never
fails. For he knows that pulpwood will help guarantee his
children’s future.
