A man who gives to the poor some of the dollars that he took from the poor is sometimes termed a “philan thropist.” Human nature: Buying a new auto mobile when the old one would have done awh le longer and then blaming the government for one’s maoility to make sufficient money to meet the installments.

The acorn has grown into a mighty oak. To Destroy or Be Destroyed. To destroy co't n or be destroyed by cotton is the quest on that w con fronting the Smithern farmer* today and The People-Sentinel cannot urge too strongly the farmers of Barnwell County to join whole-heartedly in President Roosevelt’s plan for the re- habilitatun of agriculture. Faced with a carry-over equal to a normal mp, together with acreage and prospect* sufficient to produce an sulditional 14,000,000 bales thi* year, the South is courting disaster unless rthe desperate situation ia met with sleeperste measures. It has been pointed out that the President's plan to reduce the yield by destroying a part of the growing crop is analogous to the back-fire set by plainsmen to hand off and check aa great prairie fire, - or the dynamHing uf rv wa of houses" in a city in an effort to check the spread of a confingation. That the plan will bring the desired result of boosting prices to a profit able plane w«s dearly shown by the action of the market Monday, when price* soared over $4 a bale on reports that farmers throughout the cotton bolt are really behind the movement. The auccess of the plan moans that the staple will probably sell for 12 to 15 cents a pound. Its defeat means thn penury of 5 or 6 cents cotton. And what’s more, the farmer cannot lose. The government actually pa^s him to do that which ordinary com- sens* and prudence tells him U , Two plans are offered for his tee and they are clearly out- lined elsewhere in this is»ue of The People-Sentinel. In addition, he ragpi the benefit of higher prices for tfee remainder of his 19S3 crop, v It Ji gratify inf to note that County Agent Harry 0.
