SEXTON. — Columbia, May 24.—The political thunder that will^ shake fhe nation this summer and fall will have its reverberations\ in South Carolina. Already the’gage of battl^ has been thrown down in "the Stat e on two counts—prohibition and the effort of the F armers and Taxpayers league to take a direct part in State politics and government. Entry of Ashton H. Williams, of Florence, wet candidate fcr governor in 1930, into the race for the United States senate brought the prchibfi- tion question sharply to the fore. Williams, in announcing his candi dacy, . adopted the statement of the “principles and aims” of the South Carolina Association for Prohibition Reform as hi s own. His candidacy for. ‘.he seat cf Senator Ellison D. Smith, a dry had been heralded by the a nti-prohibition association in a state ment which said: “The fight will be vigorously push ed at the pol! s this summer. That will give us a referendum the poli ticians can understand.” / Leauge Promises Fight. This pronouncement, made after a resolution for a prohibition referen dum had been defeated at the State Democratic convention, was the second threat made by an organized group to take an “issue” to “the people.” The Farmers and Taxpayers league, thwarted in an attempt to organize the Democratic convention, attributed its reverse to what it termed “organ ized office holders who are entrencrK-d in county and State positions.” The leaguej its leaders asserted, “will carry it- appeal to every citizen of the State, and the August primaries will shew exactly what the mas-es cf the people think.” The issue between the league and the party organizations, as staged by the league, is that of economy. League sp ke-men charge the party organization with adopting economy re-o!utibns and failing to cartv them out. What steps the league will take to place it s program before the voters has not been specifically stated, al though it is presumed the organiza tion wil throw its support to candi dates favoiable to its policies in the primaries. Reply io Reepubficans. Asserting it* members were “true Democrats,” league spokesmen ridicul ed the suggestion that it join with the Hambright Republicans of the State as “something to hurt us.” This suggestion was made by Dallas A. Gardener, of Orangeburg, State chairman of the Haiflbnght faction. Although the race for the United States senate premises the most fire works, there will be numerous oppor tunities to '“tsst issues” in th e pri maries. « In addition to the United States senate, six members of the national house, eight circuit solicitors, about half the members of the State senate and all the members cf the house of representative? are to. be nominated. Six candidates already are in the line-up for the senatorial race. They are Senator Smith, who is. expected to stand for reelection; former Senator Cole L. Blease, the stormy petrel of South Carolina politics; Williams, cf Florence; Solicitor Leon W. Harris, cf Anderson; State Senator R. M. Jef- fvies, of Colleton, who has said he probably will run, and L. G. Southard, Spartanburg attorney. The first person formally to file for any state-wide or district office, w’as Solicitor T. C. Callison, of Lex ington, who yesterday deposited hig $200 entrance fee with J. Wilson Gibbes, secretary of the State com mittee. Now that the ground has been broken, the others are expected to fallow within the next few weeks. Home Coming Day at Coker. .By WALTER ’ NEW YORK TRUMBULL " . V. A man who never had visited New York before told me that his first im pression of the city was its size and quantity. “Our town,” he said, “has wider streets than some of yours, and sometimes they are just as crowded. But go 25 blocks and the crowd has melted away. You begin to get out in the rural section. Here, you can go for miles and still keep on finding throngs of people. It is the same way with everything else — skyscrapers, stores, taxicabs. We have them all, but yours^are multiplied.” * » » Hartsvilh May 24.—Mcnday, June 6, will be Home Ccm:ng Day at College for all former Coker College and Welsh Neck students. The Coker Cclleg e Alumnae Asscciati n will hoM a business meeting in the drawing room at 12:00 o’clock, and at the fame-hour in the gymnasium (which is the old Welch Neck Auditorium) there wil be an important' get-to gether meeting for ail of the old Welch Neck students. At 2:00 o’clock in the College din ing-room a joint luncheon - wilf-be held, at which time Dr. E. W. Sikes will be the speaker cf .the occasion? •A cordial welcome is extended td every former Coker and Welch Neck student to be present. The classes Of 1912, 1916, 1920, 1924, 1928 and 1930 are having their reunions this year. I always have thought it would be interesting if part of the residential portion of New York could be divided into 48 sections, governed in relative size by the population of the various states, and then to gather all the for mer residents of each state into their own section. They would gll feel that they were.at borne again, especially if the floating population was assigned to quarters under the same system. Even now we have miniature coun tries in New York—little Italy, China, Hungary, Africa. There are mighty few races in the world that are not represented somewhere in New York, and there is scarcely any article of trade known to man which you cannot find somewhere in the city, if you know where to Ipok for it. • • • » Peoples, jewels, objects of art, an imals, foods, shrubs, trees, flowers, drugs, chemicals, all sorts of things from every corner of the earth, find their way to New York. You may see lions from Africa, tigers from India, dinosaur skeletons from Mongolia, spicks from Araby, diamonds from Bra zil, emeralds from Columbia, cherry trees from Japan, paintings from Italy, dresses from France, something from every known country, in the course of a day’s wandering. If a student were intelligently to visit New York's mu seums, parks, libraries, theaters, movie houses, stores, foreign quarters, hotels, docks, business districts and restau rants, he would gain more informa tion. learn more than he would if he devoted the same time to a trip around the world. 0 0 0 Having just said that you can find everything in New York, I wish I knew exactly where to lay hands on oysters Rockefeller, and pompano in paper bugs, such as they serve in New Or leans. Or even those thin-skinned grapefruit, half the size of a pumpkin, they have in southern climes. • • • On the other hand. I do not believe you can get any finer meats anywhere than in Manhattan. And there is no better food than roast b«*ef or beef steak to be had on this spinning earth. • • • Dr. Charles H. Mayo, one of the fa mous brothers from Rochester, said re cently that the greatest enemy of the human race is food. He maintains that most persons Other eat too much, or have poorly selected diets. This sounds reasonable. We do not believe in any diet which includes creamed codfish, brains and eggs, or parsnips, and we don’t think any man. unless he has been engaged in hard manual la bor should eat over orfe roast of beef at a sitting. • • •. I^uis Angel Firpo. to be sure, used to eat a large beefsteak garnished with a dozen fried egg*, and lie was cer tainly a healthy looking specimen. But he also was larger than the ordinary man and also had known times when food was not plentiful, so perhaps lie was only striking an average. Dia mond Jim Brady was at ane time a famous eater, but be ended by endow ing some sort • of clinic for stomach troubles at Johns Hopkins. * X©. 193i, Bell Syndicate.)—WXU Service.

Building Sway May Make Stenog Sick Columbus, Ohio. — “Stenogra phers of the future may become ill in lofty offices, he rushed off to a physician and hear him say they are suffering from “syn chronous swaying'“of pendulous 'fixtures.” Prof. Clyde T. Morris, Ohio State university engineer, said here that something like sea sickness may occur in upper stories of tali buildings. Commonly, he said, it has been believed this was caused by the swaying of th<t structure in the fresh wfndg ff the lower skies. But, in fact, it is the swaying of the fixtures. Experiments in the American Insurance Union tower here, the tallest structure west of New York, showed a sway of only one-tenth of an inch in a 30-mile . wind at the' thirty-seventh floor. Britain Lists 540 as ^ Millionaires in 1931 London.—Five hundred and forty millionaires in this country were as sessed for wurtax last year, according to the report of the inland revenue commissioners for the year ended March 31, 1931, which has just been issued here. Statistic indicate that the number of millionaires increased by tw’enty-one, that the yield from income tax rose by £18,000.000. and that 50,000 taxpayers dropped from the lists of Somerset house during the year. Among them they paid £255,- 339,304. The total number of taxpayers was 2,200,000 and among them they paid £255,339.304. There were actually 4.950,000 persons with incomes liable to taxation- hut ? frft OHO n-prp rpi|pypri of payment by the operation of va rious allowances, such as ttiose for wife, children and dependent relations. The total income brought under re view was £3,160,000,000, but through allowances and reductions the actual tax was levied on only £1.300,000,000. British Naval Victory Told in Old Newspaper Memphis, Tenn.—An issue of the London Times one hundred and'twen ty-seven years old. carrying an ac count of the victory of the British fleet at Cape Trafalgar, was discov ered •‘ecently by Mrs. Florence John son while cleaning out an old book- ease. The paper evidently had been placed in the case by her grandfather, a native of England. In the battle Lord Nelson, Britain's naval hero, was killed. Vice Admiral Collingwood, who as sumed command after Ix»rd Nelson had been killed, reported the battle to the newspaper. The issue was dated November 17, 1805.
