J. WILDER, Chm. f E. S. C. BAKER, Clerk, THE HORRY HEKAI.D. CONV7 / DEMOGRATteDEBATE ON Wrbpriations By Hugh W. Roberts Washington. ?The government o the United States is a--bureaucracy, according to Senator Thomas, oi Cvjiorado. It is more UnrQiiuj ratio than lTussia < vor Wasjfl to Senator King, f)emoew? or?W?Th. Declarations to such <?il?ct wei\ made in couise of the d^ cation of the bill in the senate to protest maternity and infancy in the Unite:. States. The bill provides an immediate appropriation of SI0,000 foi each state of the union, and an even tual appropriation of $40, ,000 pe. annum to be* distributed anunof the states in proportion to population provided the states appropriate a like sum. Senator Sheppard of Texa?, it speaking in favor of the bill, made public letters from 30 governors, including-^ those of South Car:lina Florida, Alabama, Tenncrsee a.u Arkansas in the South. -In rcp.> Senator Thomas declared: "State officials in these days a. apt, whatever their politics might be, to support any bill to get money out of the treasury of the United States for local expenditure. Win;, is a poor governor going to do when the representatives of wonu n't> organizations come to his office, ga ther around him with pleas a tears, with flattery and with tinea s, rind with suggestion:; regarding hi iibility and the necessity of releci ing him? He will not only w.ite ri loft or 1 !io ?->v ,r?onr>v?t rtf f 1 ?r I measure, but as broadly as possible will publish the facts of his adlic sion. , "1 can guarantee that I can tak tiny measure promising an app/cprla Lion for local expenditure an-' ?v Iho. support of practically all the men and all the women in the states where the money is to be spent. Such support counts?s;> much that we legislate here not according to conviction, but to the <lc j mands of our constituents. We artno longer senators; we arc delegate--. Wo are rubber stamps. "We used to keep one car to the ground. Now we keep both. A soon as wo know the prevailing sentiments at home, we make up ou minds. As a result, leadership, statesmanship, originality of legisia tion. the standards of congress an legislatures have been transforms \ and when the -whip cracks outside, we get into line. With the forces against us united we could easily pass a resolution dissolving the union, declaring war against Great Britain, or opening trade with the Bolsheviki, or take any other action having behind it sufficient pressure, of a potential political character/' The support of Governor Cooper, of South Carolina- is expressed in these words: "I hereby approve of measure Tor protection of maternity/ and infancy. 1 think it important for bill to retain feature providing tha* this fund shall be handled by state health machinery already existing. Otherwise there might arise annoying duplication." NOTICE. Taken up at mv place, one mile west of Daisy, S. C., one mare mule, weight about eleven or twelve hundred pounds, black with white nose.

Conscription of labor to increase production in Germany, a law for which is "being; drafted, would apply to girls and women as well as men and boys, aR of whom would be j compelled to render a year of servico i in mines, factories, on farms, in hospitals or wherever the state directed. The proposal, credited to Mathias Erzberger, former minister of financc has become a storm center of a discussion which has run the scale from invective and threat to ridicule, and now, with the law Hearing completion, its proponents have made it apparent they will se-ek with deadly earnestness to force its passage through the reichstag. On the other hand the opponents of the measure, including the powerful Socialist faction, have declared they will oppose the passage with every means at hand, and should lh#?v f;?n will later seek to violate the legislation. Herr Erzberger's plan is to supplement the tax laws he has already succeeded m passing with a measure that compel increased production, result in a consequent increase in collectable taxes und so tend toward helping Germany pay her debts. The ^Socialists say the measure is a "capitalistic scheme" aimed at the working classes, who could derive no benefit at all from compulsory labor. They further point out that it probably could not be generally enforced and back up this statement with the argument that many of Erzberger's present laws have never been enforced, and no attempt has been made to enforce them. While the law was intended primarily to affect the wage earners, it has, it is understood, during the drafting process, been extended until it would apply to virtually every person in , Germany, in one form or another, as an effort to bring industrial as well as agricultural production to its highest efficiency. However, the form in which it eventually may be submitted may be radically modified owing to the intense opposition. In proposing and supporting the law, Erzberger is said to have had principally in view the effect of conscripted labor in the coal and timber lands. The fact that there is now nearly 1,000,000 unemployed persons in Germany and that many factories have been closed is pointed out by labor leaders and some legislators as proof that such a law is a "chimercial proposal" and could have no appreciable effect. They also assert it would be expensive and would mean the establishment of a collosal government machinery to direct its enforcement. Among prominent parliamentary leaders who have come out in opposition to the law are Phillip Scheide-1 inann, leader of tho Majority Socialists; George Gothein, economic expert and leader of the Democratic party; and Bernhard Dernburg, former finance minister.

It is possible for all but five of our schools ! to come within this class. The district and county funds in nearly all the schools have been exhausted. A> was explained to you at the Trustees' meeting in October, the Equalizing money was not enough last year to supply all that was needed in the different counties. The County Board financed the schools last year, but owing to the change in the personnel of the Board at the end of this school year, it behooves us to be careful not to leave any unfinished business on our successors. Therefore it will be necessary for the trustees to finance their own school districts, at least until we know what the Legislature appropriates for Equalizing Schools. In this way, if there should be a deficit at the end of the term, it would be. on the district and no district would have to be responsible for money expended in other districts. Since I sign**! my first pay war; rants over three years ago, no teacher has ever had to wait a day t'oi her money through any fault of mine. But now, as has been explained above, it will be impossible to approve any more pay warrants where this money is expected to come from this Equalizing Fund, until we know how much the Legislature appropriates for this purpose.

There is an advertisement in this issue of the Herald concerning the work at the Horry industrial School during the coming year. Our readers will find the additional teachers mentioned in the advertisement, and they are very competent people and well prepared for teaching a business course. The addition cf this work to the school will he a distinct ad vantage to all the boys and girls.who , may attend as ^students. It is with I the thought of giving an opportunity to the boys and girls to get a busif ness education without having to go i off after it. At Aynor it will be less expensive and almost at home. o !
