SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1920
The success attending the canvass
for subscriptions to the Business Woman'
Club shows again today a marked
progress. This morning the sum
reported was $3,525. This afternoon
the sum had swelled to $3,975.
If the committees will but work an
hour or two each day the ten thousand
will be quickly secured.
A BIG FORWARD STEP
For some time we have been moving
to make a very great and needed improvement
in The Times, and at last
have accomplished our aim. We have
secured a full Associated Press day
service, with a leased wire, an operator
in our office and an eight hour
service from 8 a. m. to 4 p. m, six
days in the week. So far as the telegraphic
news is concerned, The Times
will have exactly what the large afternoon
papers have. We have already
arranged for this service, and will put
it in the very earliest day that the
Associated Press can send us a man
and the work of installing the wire
onJ : - ? f?. ? t ' - -
uuu mow uiiicuu can oe uone. it is the
fulfillment of a cherished dream and
results from many years of hard work
on our part. We have put into the
paper all it has ever made; that is
why we are now able to get a full Associated
Press service. This is the one
great advance we have had in mind in
the promises we have been making
our subscribers that we contemplated
making The Times worthy of Union
County. There are other minor improvements;
but this is the one big
thing that feel sure is worth more
than any other improvement we can
make. Just as soon as the Press Association
can arrange the matter we
will put the service into operation.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA
DEVELOPMENT
BOARDS DRIVE
Monday marks the beginning of the
big drive for members which has been
planned by the South Carolina Development
Board, and, we believe it
is the beginning of a new era of prosperity
and wellbeing for South Carolina.
It is the coming of a state-wide,
South-wide unity of effort for the upbuilding
of the material, mental and
humiii interests of the South through
the combnied effort of the men of
vision in the South. It is the outfolding
of inward progress and latent
dreams. It is the beginning of the
crystalization of latent strength into
f active power. It heralds the coming
of a new day, one in which men are
attempting to set forth in concrete
form the long-possessed scripture
truth htat "no man liveth unto himself."
It is the beginning of a statewide,
South-wide program of information
as to the resources of each individual
state, both for the people of ,
that particular state and for the world '
at large. It is the first great effort 1
made by the state and the South to .
correlate, classify and piyperly relate ,
every agency already operating for <
the material, mental and moral better- 1
\
r
i
ment of the state, and to create ne\
agencies where the need appears. Th
South Carolina Development Boar
will seek to put South Carolina 'on th
map," and keep it there, pointing ou
the defects and presenting the al
tractions that South Carolina has t
offer. Every agency that seeks th
promotion of the progress of the stat
will find a friend in the South Care
lina Development Board. Every enem
to the state's progress "will find a
enemy in the Development Board <
South Carolina. Industry, agricultur
marketing, production, distributioi
education, health promotion, ar
honest exploitation will find a friend i
the South Carolina Developmei
Board. Ignorance, poverty, unfa
competition, worn out methods of ai
riculture, disease, mosquitos, flies, ar
pests will find a foe in the South Car
lina Development Board. The mov
ment is a commendable attempt
linito tlm mon rvf V* nU I'f in n ??AO
v.iv ???v u VM lit"* w iii a I;IVU
big unselfish service, a service stat
wide and South-wide. The drive whi<
begins Monday is for members at
money. The purpose is to raise in tl
entire state the sum of $250,000?
quarter of a million dollars to proje
the movement. Union County is as]
ed for $6,300. As shown in today
Times, the committees to canva:
Union County will be appointe
and the drive begins Monday, June 2
and continues one week. This mov
ment commends itself to us becau:
it is not a charity, seeking to send
quarter of a million dollars out <
South Carolina, but to spend that su
in promoting the interests of Soul
Carolina. We have, heretofore, give
and that liberally, to help the wor
outside South Carolina. This givir
is to help South Carolina to mobili;
her forces and resources. There
something very appealing in the movi
ment, and when one* begins to see
for the reason of the appeal it
found to lie in the age old attractionservice.
Service creates happine:
and crowns contentment. It is 1
natVi mnrlrurl htr rirvrl Viumnr, -foot i
tread. We believe that Union Count;
a county that has always shown
readiness to serve, will not be four
wanting1 this time. Be ready to joi
the movement when the eommitt<
calls upon-you.

GOMPERS RE-ELECTED
BY ORGAN 1ED LABOR
Montreal, June 18.?The American
Federation of Labor agahi expressed
its confidence in the leadership
of Samuel Gompers, its veteran
president, when it re-elected him today
for the thirty-ninth time at its
fortieth annual convention here and
returned "to office his entire administrative
cabinet. His election was
virtually unanimous. The only delegate
who voted against him was
James A. Duncan, of the Seattle
Central Labor Council, leader of the
progressive wing of the federation.
The delegates gave the elderly
leader a tremendous ovation when he
declared:
Affected by Demonstration.
"I accept the call to duty and I
will obey." He was much affected
by the demonstration.
Representatives of the railroad
workers' organizations seconded
Mr. Gompers' nomination .which was
made by George W. Perkins, of the
Cigarmakers' Union. They pledged
their hearty sqpport to his leadership,
declaring that the convention's
action of yesterday in endorsing
government ownership of the railroads
should not be construed as a
va?v.I/1:aHAM LL. ..J 1.1
it'i'uuint/HMi ui ma Muimmsbraiion.
Mr. Gompers explained that the
federation had not changed its views
in connection with the use of light
wines and beer, manufactured and
sale of which was advocated by the
convention last year.

The regular services will be held at
Bethel Methodist church Sunday

One of the problems connected with
the settlement of the Jews in Palestine
is that of keeping the land out of
speculation. It is proposed to apply
the land laws of Moses for that purpose.
A house in England has been
awarded damages for what counsel in
the case termed 'the gravest offence
of modern time?the larceny of a
cook."
Frequent advertisements in London
"personal" columns show a telephone
scarcity in the British metropolis.
