Track Project.
Despite repeated report# that the
new SeaSoard Air Line bridge
across the»Wateree river would be
a double-track affair, the Chronicle
is able to state definitely that the
;:tructure will carry but one track.
And relative to the beautifica
tion program at the Camden pas
senger station, this is a Joint proj
ect of the railroad and the Camden
(Jarden club. As stated last week,
it is predicated upon blue prints
prepared in 1939.
The Seaboard has enlarged the
parking area at the station about
15 per cent, so that there i# now
a total space of 720 square yards.
Resurfacing of 240 square yards
‘of the parking lot has been com'
I pleted and a ten by ten foot picKet
fence has been built south of the
(station. The Garden club has
planted vines at the base of this
I fence.
Ornamental fences have been
built around 23 live oak trees be
tween the station and the No. 1
highway while rough pine barriers
have been construct^ from the
entrance of the drive to the sta
tlon grounds proper. On these pine
•larrlers the Garden club will grow
Cherokee roses "dV wisteria.
These are but a few of the high
lights of the cleaning and improve
ments which the Garden club has
in prospect

LOW in Charleston and who holds
^tbe'office of assistant U. S. Secre-
ury of the Allied Secretary of the
Allied Control Council for Ger
many, in an Interview published in
a Charleston paper said that the
United States government officlsla
are doing their utmost to make the
American occupation of Germany
self sufficient, so as to reduce the
burden on United States taxpayers.
Mr.' Ancrum. who with his wife
and mother, are visiting in Charlea-
ton while on a month’s leave, said
In his interview;
“General Lucius D. Clay has led
a brilliant effort to achieve political
and economic unity in G^many
and to promote Allied cooperation
in the reconstruction and rebabili-
lation of Germany. ’
He said the' most striking thing
abont the attitude of General Clay,
a Georgian, was ‘‘his earnest desire
to avoid being a carpet baggei” in
Germany.
Despite the efforts of the Ameri
cans, Germany is in for another
vMnter with too little fuel and iood,
Mr.'Ancrum said.
“The United Sfktes government
has entered into a bi-zonal agree
ment with the British to baster the
economic recovery of the Amelrcan
and British zones in order to make
the economy of that area seK-eus-
mining and to end the drain on the
money of American and British tax
payers,” he said.
’The United States and Britain
have failed to win the participation
of the Soviets and French in the
Amerlcan-BrtUsh plan for establish
ing immediate economic unity. The
United States government always
has been careful to make clear that
French and Russian participation
is welcomed.
Mr. Ancrtim is an alumnhr of
porter Military academy and Dnka
university. He studied Germanic
philology at the University of
Munich from 1936-39, was employed
in Germany by the state depart
ment the following year and then
returned to the United States and
went to work for the Office of War
Information.
He was the OWI regional control
editor for Scandinavia and later
the associate central' editor for
European radio transmission. He
joined the army during the war
and was sent overseas. After Ger
many’s surrender, hi^was retained
in Munich where he served with
the American military government
for one year. In 1946 he became a
civilian again and assumed his
present duties in Berlin, serving
Grst under General Joseph T. Mc-
Narney, General Clay’s predecessor.
