The following: account of the raid
appears in The Mullins Enterprise of
last week:
Last Thursday was a busy day for
State Prohibition Officer Eichelberger.
He got a tip a few days previously
that a large liquor still was in operation
below Sandy Bluff, in Horry
county, and left Darlington to 'come
over here to make the search. Between
Darlington and Florence he received
another clue of a still, and following
it, located a quantity of beer
just ready to be run. It was estimated
that there was 300 gallons of the
beer, but the still was not located.
After destroying the beer, Eichelberger
came on to Mullins and struck
trail for the Sandy Bluff affair. It
seems that his informant over-estimated
the distance from the bridge,
and the still was working for two
miles nearer than he supposed. A
short distance from the river bridge,
a road turns to the right, going up
toward Schoolfield's camp. Following
this road a short distance, Mr.
Eichelberger saw a Ford car in the
woods. Things looked suspicious, as
no one was with the car, and looking
around he saw tracks of three persons
leading across a branch, which he followed
and finally noticed a little
smoke curling up through the bushes.
On drawincr nearer, he saw three men,
all negroes, sitting around the still,!
while the liquor was running through
the worm. Being alone, he went back
to his car and got his shot gun and
returned and slipped up as close as
he could and commanded them to
throw up their hands. They all broke
and ran and he fired a load of buckshot.
One of the party fell down, but
the other two made their escape.
Streeter Owens, the boy captured, was
not hit, but no doubt fell to keep from
being shot.
Mr. Eichelberger made the boy take
an axe and cut up the still. It was
a sixty-gallon affair of copper worm,
with doublers, etc., and was said to be
a first class still, capable of turning
out a high grade liquor. Among the
material destroyed was 100 gallons of
mash, three fermenters, flake stand,
60-gallon copper still. It gave evidence
of having been in operation for
some time. About five gallons of corn
liquor was secured as evidence.. The
car was also seized. Owens was
brought to Mullins and locked up in
the city guard house and Friday
morninc Sheriff T^wis. nf Pnnwav
came over and carried the prisoner
back to the county seat. The car was
confiscated and left in Mullins.
On questioning the boy, Street
Owens, he implicated Dick Williams
and Buster Levinson, as those who
were with him at the still. Later it
was found Buster LevinsOn was hit by
the load of buckshot from Ikey's gun.
Though the officer did not intentionally
shoot the bey, it proved a seri

ous wound. Six buckshot penetrated
the flesh?one just above the heart,
two through the hand, one in the finger,
almost severing it, and two in
the forearm, showing that the negro
was facing the officer when he was
shot. He may lose his arm as a result
of the wounds, as the member
was badly mangled. Levinson was
carried to the Mullins hospital fortyeight
hours later, where Dr. McMillan
dressed the wounds and is 3till
attending him. Dr. Conliffe was first
called to the boy the day after the
shooting, but at that time it was not
thought to be as serious as what it
later proved. It was through the
kindness of Deputy Sheriff Furman
Edwards and J. Lee Piatt that the
boy was carried to the hospital for
treatment, as his life was in danger
irom Diooa poisoning.
From what could be gathered, it
seems that Levinson and Dick Williams
were not really implicated in
the distilling, but were there as spectators,
having accepted an invitation
to take a ride, not knowing where
they were going.
ALLIES SHOULD
PAY DEBTS
By Mr9. W. H. Felton
A speech recently made by
Senator Borah, gives the reliable figures
to show the amount of territory
taken from Germany by France and
England, as a result of the World
War. Senator Borah is one of the
great outstanding figures in this nation.
He is worthy of confidence and
what he says is worthy of profound
attention.
England has acquired 2,000,000
square miles, of territory?not including
Persia, which she controls?without
resistance.
France has acquired 480,495 square
miles of territory. Together, you will
see the gain is 2,480,495 square miles
they have collectively acquired as a
result of the war. It was a war of
conquest. <
Germany holds these United States
responsible for the success attained
by England and France.
What did the United States get?
Listen. Just nothing at all, and if
England and France do not pay their
notes?given in return for money advanced
and turned over to those countries
to carry on this war of conquest
we never will get anything. Senator
Borah says this territory exceeds the
square miles contained in the following
States: Washington, Oregon, California,
Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Utah,
Montana, Wyoming, and Kansas.
Friends?readers of the Country
Home Column?let your school children
bring you the map of these great
States and see the amount 01 land
taken from Germany and Austria as
the result of this World War. Germany
being helpless at this time, all
the revenues of this conquered section
are draining into the coffers of France
and England right now.
England has paid a little interest
money on her notes, but France pays
nothing, is not inclined to pay anything.
If France ever pays anything
she must be made to understand that
she will be compelled to pay. Nothing
is plainer.
Senator Borah says: "No one can
estimate the wealth of this conquered
* ' ? - -L L
territory, it couici not oe esimmieu
at the time of its taking over.
Subsequent developments have disclosed
that in oil and other mineral
deposits it is rich beyond camparison
with its previously estimated values.
The United States came home without
claiming any part or parcel of this
territory. Instead of getting anything
the United States is represented
as the Shylock, clamoring for what is
owed to us."?(and abused as a disagreeable
creditor in both countries,
I will here add?Mrs. Felton.)
It is proven by clear figures that
our debtor has accumulated vast as:vil

sets instead of being: impoverished
and suffering by the war.
France obtained from Germany, as
a result of this war, says Senator
Borah, 40 per cent of her blast furnaces,
30 per cent of her steel works
and 28 per cent of her rolling mills.
These mills are in active operation
now and in 1921 France exported
100,000 tons, whert in 1913, before the
war began, France only exported 48,000
tons from her own mills and furnaces.
France has a good thing here
to work! France is getting enough
money out of Germany today to easily
pay the interest on her notes, owned
by the United States. France has an
army in Germany today, taking over
enough real money?by force?to pay
the interest on her debt to the United
States. Yet France declines to pay a
dollar of it, with all this captured
oroperty she is paying the cash into
her own strong boxes.
England last year paid a little of
her interest account. She is building
battleships?and also controls the
commerce of the world. Money is
pouring through the great sluice gates
lliwr 1IV1 OV1 VII^ UUAC3.
Here in the United States the taxpayers
are ground down by enormous
taxation to pay the interest on the
Liberty bonds?issued to help Great
Britain and France carry on the war.
Our people get nothing, and will get
nothing hereafter, if the propagandists
among us can be kept in the pay
of English and French Financery. We
have thousands of wounded soldiers
in veteran hospitals. We are spending
twelve millions a day to care for
these sick, maimed, gassed and blinded
soldiers in hospitals. They average
$143 per month to each man?and
these English and French people get
abundant money out of Germany in
the taken-over territory to pay all
i.1 i. i i ? ? ? - *
uwt is neeaea to taice care or tne
American wounded in hospitals. We
sent billions of money during- the war
?through Red Cross, Salvation Army
and relief societies?to care for soldiers
in American, British and in
French camps and hospitals. The expense
we incurred was monumental to
aid them against Germany.
Not a dollar of such donations will
ever be returned to the taxpayers and
benevolent people of the United
States. They were donations.
'England had plenty of ships afloat
during the continuance of the war?
yet British ship owners charged us
full price for the transportation of
American soldiers, who went over
there to prevent Germany from overrunning
England, and while Americans
saved the throne to King George,
a full cousin to the kaiser, who lost
his throne thereby.
I have never yet interviewed a returned
American soldier, of sane
habits and calm mind, who ever desired
to go back over there to fight for
nothing and for such ungrateful folks.
Germany would have taken over
much territory if Germany had been
*he victor. For a century to cofcne.
Germany will hate America, because
we helped Great Britain and France
overcome Germany. We conscripted
our youno* soldiers by the million?to
war service. We combed the United
States as with a fine toothed comb,
to get them all who were liable to
the call. We established army camps
all over the United States. That war
cost this country more than twentyfive
billions of dollars, ten billions of
which we loaned to the allies. We,
the taxpayers, will never see nor
hear of relief during our time. For
flftv vears we will be obliged to pay
interest on this bonded indebtedness.

England and France are getting- back
what they spent and the United States
is n^t getting even a dollar of interest
from France and but little from
England. Not a single effort has
shown itself to do anything over there
to pay the money that was extorted
from American taxpayers and loaned
to those who have secured their enormous
claims out of Germany.
There is an old adage about "greasing
a fat sow." Great Britain and
France are what might be called fat
sows. They are greasing themselves,
and I ask again:
Why shouldn't they be made to pay
their honest debts to us?

State Superintendent of Education
Endorses and Encourages
"Garden Week."
Clemson College.?Supt. J. H. Hope
of the State Department of Education,
has put his shoulder to the wheel
of the garden ploy, so to speak, and
is aiding very materially in promoting
"Garden Week," March 5 to iu inclusive,
by urging all county superintendents
and school principals to lend
their "support in making this movement
a success."
Following is his letter to county
superintendents regarding "Garden
Week."
Dear Sir:
Spring gardening time is here,
March 5th to 10th is being set aside
as "Garden Week" in support of this
great movement. This week should
be observed in every county school
district and community.
Under the leadership of the Extension
Horticultural Project of Clem-j
son College, a drive for better vege
table gardens is being staged throughout
South Carolina.
The grocery bill may be reduced onethird,
.and an income of $1.64 per
hour may be received for garden
work, besides the family may have
a more healthful diet.
The bankers, merchants, and business
men other wise connected are
lending their moral support and cooneration.

WHY THAT LAME BECK7
That morning lameness?those
sharp pains when bending or lifting,
make work a burden and rest impossible.
Don't be handicapped by a bad
back?look to your kidneys. You will
make no mistake by following this
Conway resident's example.
Mrs. W. H. Oliver, 61 Fourth Ave.,
Conway, says: "Every cold settled in
my kidneys and I had a lot of trouble
with my back hurting. I was
subject to terrible backaches and it
seemed as though my back would
break. I had nerve racking headaches
which made me sick and I had
to lie down until they passed away.
My kidneys didn't act right at all and
I was nervous and irritable as a result.
I used Doan's Kidney Pills from
the Conway Drug Co., and in no time
at all was much better. One box of
Doan's relieved me in fine shape."

HENRY HARDEE
WINS A CASE
In the case last week against W.
Henry Hardee, the defendant was callad
up on a charge of obtaining property
by false pretenses.
The substance of the charge was
that he had represented to Jenkins &
Richardson, of Conway, that a certain
bay mule was clear of mortgage when
n fact it had been under a mortgage
before then by Hardee to Stanley
Allien.
In 1921, Jenkins? & Richardson had
wrought claim and delivery for the
mule against Stanley Allen and Duffy
Hardee. The plaintiffs lost his
case in the magistrate court because
it was shown that Stanley Allen had
the oldest mortgage.
The State put in proof that the
mortgage which had bee.i given Jenkins
& Richardson had been lost since
the trial took place in the magistrate
:ourt.
J. O. Norton, deputy clerk, was
sworn and showed the record of the
chattel mortgage as made to Jenkins
& Richardson. The solicitor then read
the record of the mortgage, the record
stating that there was no prior
claim on the property.
W. L. Richardson testified that Hardee
represented that there were no
other claims on the mule and by that
obtained another mule worth $250.
Hardee was asked if there were other
claims and he said there were none.
Hardee owed $250 and gave this
mortgage to secure the debt
W. H. Chestnut, magistrate, testified
as to what Hardee said in the
claim and delivery suit; that he had
aamiuea ne naci maae the older mortgage
and said that he had said in that
case that he had not told Jenkins he
had given another mortgage ahead of
his.
The defendant, Henry Hardee, testified
that he had not given any mortgage
over this mule to Jenkins &
Richardson. He said that he could
not read or write; that the paper was
not read over to him. He claimed he
did not mean to give any mortgage
on the little mule, rained Jack.
The defendant was found not
guilty.
