Editor mi Proprtetor. at Um post office at Barnwell, S. C., m second-clasa matter. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year $1.50 Six Month* ... .90 Three Months M (Strictlj In AdTance.) THURSDAY, DECEMBER IS, 1934 Vote for Continuance. The PecpleSentinel urges every farmer hi Barnwell County, white or Mack, iwho votes in tomorrow’s refer- endum on the Bankhead law tt> cast his or her ballot for a continuance of the compulsory control measure for another year. As we see it, this is the only salvation of the Southern farmer. In spite of the fact that the crop has been curtailed for the past two years, there is still a burdensome sur plus to depress the price, due primari ly to the drop in exports to foreign countries. This, it is said, is not due to the advance in price of American cotton but because of economic condi tions existing in other countries which have forced them to curtail their pur chases. A vast majority of the farmers are already under voluntary ^contract with the federal government to reduce their acreage 25 per cent, in 1935 and the Secretary of Agriculture has asked for a 86 per cent, reduction. Rentals and parity payments will be paid to cooperating farmers. The Bankhead law is designed to whip into line those farmers who, from selfish or other reasons, »-efuse to cooperate with their fellows in curtailing production, hoping thereby t</profit by the sacri fices of the more patriotic. There- farc, even though farmers vote against the continuance of the law, those who signed contracts voluntari ly last spring will still be bound to reduce. There are outside interests who are opposed to any sort of crop control and they have been very active in their opposition to the Bankhead law. Don’t be misfed by these people. President Roosevelt has promised to have the law amended to take cave of the “little farmer,” who suffered some injustices under the application of the 1iW this" year. This peerless leader has endorsed the law and asked the fkrmers of iha South to vote for its continuance. Had you rather follow' the selfish interests of those who would exploit the farmer for their own per- •onal gain cr a man who has shown that he has your best interest at heoit? We hope that the South’s answer will be an overwhelming vote in favor of the continuance of the Bankhead law. folks say: “I could have bought that nything on hit mortgage, he will home for $5,000; now it ain’t for sale." work for the goverment beef cannery, M I refused to talk about the Smith but it has only 4 rooms, farm at $10 per acre, now the fellow —" wante $50 for it.” the fedderal land- bank’s 5-room v . 11 house aiu^ small farm on the out- Hard times is a brain affection, skirts is bedng occupied by bert white Good times are here and only about and familey. he will have charge of 6 per cent "of the public knows it. the f. e. r. a. relief which is being Nearly everybody is getting along as highly patronized now as it has turn- well as they ever got along . . . ed cold and everyboddy is hungry and when it comes to making a living, or sneezing, if he gives away enough some money; they have not “checken food and clothes, he will - be well back” to. see how little they made 15 thought of in flat rock, or 10 or * years ago.

We had unemployed by the thous- ands before this last depression. We had millions living on charity during the so-called good! times of 10 years ago. There were still other millions that bought on credit and didn’t pay (forced benevolence), but they now have to pay cash, and that pushes them into Uncle Sam’s hands. We are all a mess of grumblers, growlers, kickers and howlers today; depend ing on the government and the public instead 1 of upon ourselves. What we need is more guts, more personal pride, more confidence, more willing- to-work-for-a-living folks, and fewer . . the government’s got to feed me” voters.

According to Wltham’s “Mod ern Pulp and Paper Making,** the terms Kraft and sulphate pulp are used practically Interchangeably. The Kraft pulp la of a dull brown shade when unbleached and Is used for the manufacture of products Where color Is not a consideration and where strength and ability to resist all kinds of wear and tear la desired, as for instance in wrappings and bag papers. The Kraft process Is especially adaptable to the pulping of long flbered resinous and non-reslnous woods, certain kinds of wood that are useless in the manufacture of sulphite pulp being adaptable to this process. In the sulphate process used for mak ing Kraft paper, sulphate of soda re- plaees soda ash.—Originally the pulp V' Against Hunting, Fishing and Trapping Any perion or persons entering upon the lands hereinafter referred to sit uate in Barnwell, Richland and Red Oak Townships, for the purpose of hunting, fishing or trapping, will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
