Over at Myrtle Beach last week, the opinion was voiced by Mr, John T. Woodside and Col. Holmes B. Springs, official s of the Myrtle Beach Invest ment Company and both of whom nre recognized as “big” men, that the farmers of South Carolina should not permit a single crate of vegetables and other farm produce to leave the State without bearing the so-called 44 iodine” label. In this discovery of a heavy iodine content in South Caroli na farm products the Palmetto State has an invaluable asset and one that should be capitalized to the utmost, is the opinion of these men. . The labels may be had from the Natural Resources Commission in Colurribia at a cost of only one cent each. They are beautifully litho graphed in four colors and tell the world about South Carolina’s iodine products. Messrs. Woodside and Springs fear that if the discovery is not properly exploited NOW other States will take from us that which means the rehabilitation of agricul ture in South Carolina. Business and professional men are buying stationery with the label litho graphed thereon with no other motive than that of helping the farmers ad vertise their products. They are do ing this from a patriotic standpoint. Surely, the farmers cannot refuse to use the label at a nominal cost when they have the added incentive of pos sible personal gain in a financial way. Where producers are also shippers they should gladly use the label and where the farmers sell to commis sion 1 brokers they should insist that these shippers use the label. Let’s all cooperate and “cash in” on this wonderful opportunity. “The Solution DorcheMer." thy with this attitude. They pay sheriffs and constables to enforce the laws but when a violator is haled be fore a court of alleged justice there ie a maudlin sentiment for the crimi nal.) Now, another stage in the evolu tion of the bootlegger has apparently been reached. We are told that things have come to such a pass in Barnwell County that warnings have been sent to certain law officers not to inter fere with the operations of the boot- leggers. History repeats itself. Lawless conditions of any kind must sooner or later become so bad that they are a stench in the nostrils of the law-abid ing citizens and there is an organized, concerted effort to reform. All signs point to the fact that such an effort lies in the not distant future. The defiant attitude of the bootleg gers can but hasten the day. Bloody Richland. r 'fjOW WRE W m MV WIID flOWEM NATUf?' W. N. U.) Time was when many newspapers and individuals throughout South Car olina referred to Barnwell County as “BlocWy /Bamwcfll.” They held up their hands in holy horror and were aghast at the apparent cheapness of human life in the county. Of late years there has been a decided im provement in the county’s homicide record, although there is still an un wholesome and unwelcome disregard of other laws, chief among which is the prohibition law. Only a few weeks ago, we recorded the killing at a Columbia hospital by a policeman of a man said to have been armed only with a pocket knife. The testimony at the coroner’s inquest was to the effect that the homicide could | Friday, May 31st, will be “Family have been avoided if the officer had Night” at the Vamp Theatre.

Among other things it says: “In Dorrhester are half a dozen or a dozer men and w'omen representing both parties whom everyone trusts. They are people of poise, people who keep their heads. They are persons of sub stance ard character. They can meet and command that factionalism cease in Dorchester. They can tell the hot heads, the swift talkers, that the moment has arrived for them to take back «eata. No matter what hap pens, Dorchester should be saved as a civilized community.” During the hot campaign of last summer, Dorchester County's two newspapers, The Record and The Eagle, each the mouthpiece of a fac tion, engaged in heated and wordy controversies. Nor have these editor ial broadsides ceased with the battle of the ballots. Scarcely an issue has gome to press that did not carry ma terial that served to add fuel to the fire of factional strife and keep alive the bitterness engendered by the cam paign. These newspapers migh join hands with thoee “people of poise, people who keep their heads,” that The News and Courier has in mind. Instead of their weekly bickerings, they migh endeavor vo throw oil mxm the political waters instead of the flames. Nothing good can be gained by keeping factionalism alive. It benefits nobody but the demagogic politician!. There is a more worth while job ahead of Messrs. Koester and Tarkington than that of being used as cat’s paws to pull political chestnuts out of the fire. The advice of The News and Courier is sound. The People-Sentinel hopes that it will be followed by the leaders of both factions.
