THURSDAY, JULY 8TH, 1937. Still Old Fashioned. We are still old fashioned enough to believe in the apparently out-moded American principle that every man has a right to work and should be protected in that right by the govern- roent. And— We are still old fashioned enough to believe that no man nor group of men has any right to seize and hold the property of an individual or a cor poration without due process of law. To voice such old fashioned beliefs in principles upon which this Ameri can nation was founded may be trea son, but “if it be treason, then make the most of it.” Criminal Negligence. In a recent automobile accident in which several persons were seriously hurt, the driver of the car that was responsible for the collision is said to have admitted that his vehicle had faolty brakes but that he “wasn’t dkrving over 35 or 40 miles an hour** when he attempted to pass two or three other machines and crashed head-on into an automobile going in the opposite direction. If a railroad company operated its trams with faulty brakes and an ecei- d*eit resulted, the com plaints in suita for damages would allege -criminal and juries would return verdicts aga nst the de- fewdant However, owners of cars that are a mesva/e to all other users of the highways are permitted to ea- Itfa and property M& days a South Carulma Aosae Stales iee laws requiring the etsmmat ' mO care far meehantral dofbrta al ratlin trap ma that are found u hs samefe Nt aa ere reiegated to the Cat the the re> read • users ef rsttJu trap H part fsr the aut r<d tort this Governor Olin D Johaatoa, in hi* address to the State Federation of Labor, in (harleaton, urged that force and violence be avoided in dis putes between capitfcl and labor.

The newspapers carried statements from several men prominent in pub lic life who are expected to be candi dates next summer. Governor John ston and Senator Smith are quoted extensively in Sunday’s papers, both being candidates for the United States Senate, Mr. Adams, Mr. Manning and Mr. Maybank came before us in advo cacy of various things. These gen tlemen are expected to be in the race for Governor. Mr. Manning appeal ed to the authorities in Washington to give consideration to the farmers in Suir|ter County who suffered from hail, Mr. Adams challenged the High way Department on its pay scale and Mr. Maybank addressed (the State Convention of Labor. By the way, Measra. Adams, Manning and May- bank seem to be speaking somewhere every week.

( The State constabulary, says the constable, uses seized corn liquor as an anti-freeze in radiators of automo biles used by members of the force. Thus he accounted for the liquor smell in and around an automobile belonging to the State, a car which he was driving the night after last Christ mas when it was in collision with an other car. ThfH and a pint of corn liquor which he had purchased as evidtence to be used in the Lexington court against a liquor law violator, he said. And upon that purchase hangs another piece of news. There is a small fund which State constables may use to employ per sons to purchase liquor from boot leggers in order to establish cases against these illegal venders, he point ed out. And, he said, it is easier for women to make purchases, frequently, than for men to buy. Thus he accounted for two women who were in the car with him at the time of the collision. He had taken them along, he said, to buy liquor to catch the bootleggers. He himself, however, he testified, had made this particular purchase Asked by C. T. Gray don, attorney bringing the suit for damages against the State car. If it wasn't the law ia South Carolina that all home-amde seisad liquor must be destroyed, the constable said that as mg It as aati- wilt sew point with added pride to their Ita alcoholic content la established by official awem evidence.
