Far-Reaching.
It hardly seems reasonable that the
effects of a strike in an automobile
plant in Toledo, Ohio, would be felt
directly in Barnwell, but it happens
that such is the case and shows how
closely knit is the usiness life of
America.
Last week, The People-Sentinel re
ceived a Chevrolet advertising schedule
for May and a day or two later the
mail brought a cancellation order, this
action being necessary “because of the
disturbed labor conditions at the
Toledo plant.” It is presumed that
all newspapers that have contracts for
this advertising were similarly affect
ed.
It will be seen, therefore, that the
labor troubles in Toledo are the direct
cause of a huge' monetary loss to the
newspapers of the nation, as well as
to thousands of people in other lines
of endeavor. Unsettled labor condi
tions throughout the country are re
tarding recovery and making Presi
dent Roosevelt’s 'hard task even more
difficult. It’s a pity that the labor
leaders cannot recognize this fact.
and misfits, America could —and
would—do the job at one stride.
Many^faults have been ascribed to us
by foreign and friendly critics, but
the lack of humane objectives has
never been one of them. The transla
tion of that ideal today is hopelessly
complicated by combining two sepa
rate problems, one economic, the
other social. Any r standard adopted
for the chronifl loKfer ist too low for
the honest worker; any standard
adbptedvfor the honest worker is too
high for the chronic loafer.”

More About Cotton.
For a number of years, the power
ful cotton firm of Anderson, Ciayton
and Company has been a controlling
factor in the price of American cot
ton. It hag been credited with the
manipulation of prices, quite often to
the detriment of the Southern pro
ducer.
Of late, there has been a huge
amount of propaganda broadcasted
against the government’s cotton con
trol plan and the processing tax.
There are some people who believe
that much of this criticispi was in
spired by Anderson, Clayton and
Company. We do not know whether
that is true or not.
Much of the propaganda contained
warnings of the threat that Brazilian
cotton holds for the staple grown in
North America. Heretofore, that
crop has been negligent and, for the
most -part, of poor quality. This year
production is estimate^ at 1,581,000
bales—an increase of 63 .per cent,
over last year’s crop of 968,000 bales.
We learn that Anderson, Clayton
andl Company is now engaged in pro-

‘Scrambling Two Problems.”
Under the above caption, “Nation’s
Business,” a monthly magazine pub
lished at Washington, points out that
“much of the confusion an d dloubt con
cerning recovery and security meas
ures is due to the failure to discrimi
nate between “the unemployable’ and
•Hie unemployed,’ ” and draws the con
clusion that government cannot adopt
the same standard for the chronic
loafer and the honest worker, as has
been attempted in adlministering re
lief funds.
Continuing, “Nation’s Business”
says:
“In every country, in every period,
there is a group of hopelessly moronic
«nd genuinely dependent men and
women. They constitute a social
problem. In times of depression there
•re those able and willing lo work
whose services society cannot use.-
They constitute an economic problem.
“By lumping the two classes in one
catagory comes most of our disorder-

that there is included 1 the man who
would not or could not work in those
years when ‘Help Wanted’ signs were
everywhere in evidence.
