Entered at the post office at Barnwell, S. C., as second-class matter. - SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year $1.50 Six Months .90 Three Months .50 (Strictly in Advanea.) THURSDAY, JUNE 9TH, 1932. General Charles G. (“Hell and Maria”) Dawes, in reigning as presi dent of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, says that the depression is over. Oh, yeah? Straw Balko. Recently, The Literary Digest con ducted a straw vote on the prohibition question. The result indicated that, with the exception cf tw’o States, sen timent for repeal of the 18th Amend ment is very strong throughout the country. Kansas and North Carolina returned slight majorities in favor of a continuance of prohibition. Professional dry? and others yho favor prohibition declared that The Dige«t poll proved nothing, giving various reasons for the "wet" senti ment expressed therein. Last week, a primary election wa« held in North Carolina, one of tty* two “dry” States in The Digest poll. Robert R. Reynold* ran on a wet platform for the Democratic nomina tion for United States Senator against Che incumbent, Cameron Morrison, an ardent pn hibitioniat. The latest figures available Tue-day showed Reyn Ids leading Morrison by (lightly more than 12,000 votes, their totals heing 143,732 and 131,878, respec tively. Three fiber candidate* polled ah ut 65,000 vote* a'l told. learned that the garage door* had to be re-placed—on account cf dry gpd wet rot, decay, rust and worm damage. (Garage doors cost B. T. D.-s-meaning, before the depression, $20.00. But they can be had now for only $20.00.) We did all cf these things to please our city council. They put on a “Paint Up” week, and we did our bit—even if it did bust us. We be lieve everybody ought to vote the democratic ticket next November so that good times and honesty in $[cvern- ment affairs will return—and vt Would be a good idea for everybody to take a bath occasionally, too—if possible.
