The prediction that the
Southeast will some day be
the greatest livestock sec
tion of the United States was
made by Governor Strom
Thurmond Wednesday in his
speech to thfc joint meeting
of the Kiwanis and Rotary
clubs at which awards were
made to the winners of the
com contest in this county.
The Governor said that the
need for diversification had never
been more strongly illustrated
than this year when the boll wee
vil cost the fanners of this state
an estimated $60,000,000 loss in
their cotton crop.
The Governor asked his audi
ence if they knew that four out

“What a wonderful market we
have in the state for these
things,” he exclaimed. No place,
he said, could produce more milk
and butter than South Carolina.
Grass can be grown here in pas
tures the year around whereas
it cannot m the western states
which produce so much of the
butter sold in the South. Our
climates are mild and we don’t
have to build the bams they have
to build in the West to protect

ards, recently returned from

sentative of the House For
eign Affairs Committee, told
40 members of the Lyttleton
Street Methodist Men’s Bible
Class Tuesday night, “If our •
foreign policy had any rea
son in it, we Would send an
ambassador to Spain and
stop hurting the feelings of
a proud people.”
Speaking at the Bible class’ first •
annual Christmas banquet, the
representative from the fifth
South Carolina district expressed
approval of the U. S.’s foreign
policy, outlined the present for
eign situation, and declared him-
i in favor of recognizing the
Franco government of Spain.
Defining foreign policy as
“what is best for the selfish in
terests of a country,” Congress
man Richards told the group that
“the United States is In Europe
because it is to the best interest
of, the United States to be there.
Regardless of America’s economic
condition, the'money has so far ,
been well spent that we have put
into the European recovery pro
gram.”
“After having studied the
Europtan situation, I have come
to the conclusion the two main
trouble spots In the world today
are Germany and China.” The
Congressman expressed admira
tion for the Chineee people, but
pointed out that more than two
million dollars had been spent in
