Excitement Is Raging
Selection of Maybank
Deplored By Kennedy
Regret that the State Democratic party picked United
States Senator Burnet R. Maybank as the national com
mitteeman was expressed by Senator R. M. Kennedy, Jr.,

“1 frankly would rather see a
man more positive in his views on
States Rights represent us,” said
Senator Kennedy. *Tm sorry to
say it but Senator Maybank’s se
lection is going to be interpreted
as a compromising of our States
Rights’ beliefs to get us back into
the National party..
“I would not have tried to seat
anybody on the national com
mittee. I don’t believe we belong
Senator Maybank refused to
take his seat on the national
Democratic executive committee
after the committee had declined
to seet Mrs. Anne Agnew. The
Senator said that he had been in
structed by the state executive
committee which elected him not
to take his seat unless Mrs. Agnew
was also seated and that be had
no alternative in the matter. Max-
ie Collins and Mrs. J. R. Allison
who were contesting the seats of
Maybank and Mrs. Agnew were
not offered the places by the na
tional committee.
in that crowd. Why take part in
the election of William Boyle as
national chairman when we know
he’s one of the men most bitter
against the South.”
Senator Kennedy said that May-
bank is his close personal friend.
“I have supported him,” he said,
“but he took no part in our States
apart Besides that, he is con
sidered to be a dose friend of
Truman’s.”
The Senator added that "we
are going to cany on the States'
Rights fight and if it is necessary
we will nominate* States Rights
candidates next time. We are not
going to let the executive com
mittee action compromise us in
our position on States Rights.
There are a lot of us. \
Senator Kennedy said he did
not believe the State Democratic
executive committee meant to ap
pear fo be crawling back to the
national party when it picked
Maybank, but Maybank’s election
to fill the spot vacated by Gov.
Thurmond will make it appear
that way. . ....
The Senator said that if May-
bank is called upon to pledge any
sort of loyalty to the national
party he will not have the au
thority to do it, because the state
convention last year pledged op
position to Mr. Truman and the
national party’s stand in civil
rights.

financed by the bond issue but
the demands of growth would not
permit the expenditures to await
the bond issue. If the bond issue
is not authorized we will have to
get the money to pay the'banks
from some additional taxes or
revenues. There is no other an
swer, for if we take the money
from our regular sources of in
come we would be far short of
having enough money with which
to carry on our essential services.
"If the electrical or water por
tions of the bond issue are not
authorized we could do as has
been done in the past—issue with
out the voters’ authority, more
revenue bonds at a higher interest
rate than general obligation
bonds. But to market more reve
nue bonds than are now outstand
ing certainly the rates now
charged would have to be in
creased.
“If the sewer portion of the
bond issue is not approved we
could adopt the system now in ef
fect in many of our neighboring
cities juid impose a sewer use tax
per toilet and use that tax as a
basis for the issuance of compara
tively high interest rate revenue
bonds to do the essential s^ver
work.
“If the issues for storm sewers
and streets are not authorized we
will have to put up with the ex-
E enaive outmoded facilities we
ave. There is nothing we could
do about them.
- "It is the unanimous studied
opinion of the city adminisy-ation
that these alternatives are not the
wise and financially sound solu
tion to the problems. With no
motive save the best interest of
our city at heart we are convinced
that the proposed bond issue is
the only sensible answer. In pro
posing it we are suggesting a
method by which our city may
get the necessary done and at the
same time keep taxes at a mini
mum. I think it not inappropriate,
in this connection, to point out
that individually the members of
your City Council are all substan
tial taxpayers.”

Postage, at the local rate, must
be paid, if any attempts are made
after the second attempt at de
livery. . ^ *
When first delivery attempts
fail, notices of arrival of parcels
will be placed in boxes. Patrons
can bring these notices to the
postoffice and obtain their par

expense to have the carrier de
liver them. -

the rural carrier on his first trip
after the receipt of such mail, and

ron resides more than one-half
mile from the route, the mail after
being properly recorded, shall be
delivered by the carrier into the
patron’s box the same as ordinary
mail.

a rural delivery patron who re
sides more than one mile from the
