The President Is RiThfl President Roosevelt is entirely right when he says that the 7,780 Americans yet in China are stay ing at their own risk, after having been urged repeatedly to come out. There is absolutely no reason in the world for the United States to become embroiled in that Oriental cat-and-dog fight between China and Japan simply because a few artabboro, bull-necked Americana prefer to remain in war-racked China rather than heed aane ad- ▼ice and aeek a aafe haven else- deck was sare te leee to either of the two fight era end that Lei would draw a bigger "gato'*? Then, when Looia did whip Brad dock aa per achedule, Schmel ing again had the call for a title fight, but thia time a Welshman, Tommy Farr, waa aelected aa the negro’a opponent. With not too good a record and a remarkably poor showing while in training Farr turned in a wondterful per formance in New York last week and, while the two judges and the referee declared Louis the winner on points, 35,000 fans who wit nessed the bout and tens of thous ands of others who heard the radio broadcast believe that the chal lenger administered a sound threshing to the so-called “cham- peen” and should have been declar ed the winner. In view of what has happened, we are firmly of the opinion that either the German or the Welsh man—not the negro—is the present heavyweight champion of the world. Thia country has no quarrel with uither China or Japan, and there wHl be no general public clamor Comments.. On Men and News By Spectator.

Most of the newspaper men of thia State from dailies to weeklies, are patriots in a true aenae; not spectacular i n Fourth-of-July spread-eagleism, but every-day worker* in a quiet but eqective manner. Remember Gideon? He had t big army, hut mere numbers wil not win battles. BattlesB are won by planning and all the thoua and and one preliminaries, such as keeping your powder dry; but a- bove all by the diash and nerve of attack, a complete harmony among the attacking forces, every man working together—and so forth Ten thousand men of many minds are not as effective in an army as two thousand disciplined men exe cuting a plan without question or quibble. So Gideon sent most of his men home and pressed on with a small consecrated bats 11 ion, a bout three hundred. Now in our Democratic party, we may need some eliminations. A victorious Democratic Party is worth nothing to ua if it means only that “we have met the enemy and are hia'n”, aa the old man put it. A Democratic Party that is a party of Democrats is one thing; >ut a Democratic Party traded to Socialists, Communists, Theorists. Faddist*. Negroes—and all the hoi poiioi that astute political 1 were closely associated with I should probably toll under the spell of his personality, but by reason of distsncs I have a clearer view, for I Judge programs by their essential merit, uninfluenced by personal appeal. ‘ Mr. Roosevelt is an admirable man, almost heroic. Hia struggle against meningitis, his tremendous zest for work in spite of trying physical handicaps, lift him from the level of the rest of us. Instead of living in seclusion, he goes forth bravely, vigorously, usefully into the thick of human affairs, having turned misfortune into a benefit through long, arduous and media- tive reading of history. v So with great respect and ad miration I still challenge some of his program. He has done much to earn an appreciative place in his tory, but we have our responsi bility as citizens for the country which we inherited from our fath ers. I am not wedded to the Su preme Court; it has turned an in tellectual sumersault in one year that I cannot understand 1 ; after careful reading of theh Court’s de cisions in recent months I don’t know what the powers of Congress are; but the complete independence of the Court from executive and Congressional control ia a principle of our government and I am thor- eughly in favor of that principle. Mr. Roosevelt will be President ust a short time, but changes made n our government will last long after he has left the office. Just pastorfiay, R seems. Mr. Gael- President, then Mr. Hoov- er.

So few bouquets are handed to th* average weekly newspaper pnbUher that when one comes his way it is prized highly. And while we are on this sub vert of bouquets. Editor McSweeney should be hsnded a few orchids (apologies to Walter Winched) for the splendid job that he is doing in Allendale, Hampton and Jasper Counties. He has a wonderful op portunity for service down that way and is carrying on the best traditions of the Fourth Estate. More power to him! Hurting the Fight Game. Much has been done in the past year to hurt the professional fight game, especially in the heavy weight division. A little over a year ago, Max Schrotfling, of Germany, whipped one Joe Louis, so-called “Brown Bomber,” to a queen’s taste (or aboold we say to the taste of the Marquis of Queens-bry ?). By all that was right and proper, he htd the call on Champion James J. for a title fight; in fact, it had been sign- a cwSwese of a tokong in a ta mattors mt w* moat ail Stand an foot ing men. labor leaders, labor or gsmsations, f and everybody els*. Victoy can coat too much; in deed. I wonder if we have had a Pyrrhic victory, a second one of which would be more disastrous than defeat. To win, to triumph at the polls, to be s success, to ride on the band-wagon—that is in the air; that seems to some people as tras- cending all principles. “Let’s win!” Yes, by all means—or any means. Politics may make strange bed fellows, but sometimes bedfellows snore and kick and upset that com posure so necessary to complete rest. That’s the sort of political bed-fellow Mr. Lewis seems to be —he is kicking; he says the Demo cratic Party doesn’t seem to be the vehicle of the measlres he advo cates. I’ve heard it said that those who oppose the President’s plan to control the Supreme Court and to have the Minimum-Wage bill are “Economic Royalists” or in the pay of some such plutocrat or “Royalist” I wonder. I have ob served that most of the Southh Carolina newspapers are opposed to th* President’s court plan and to his Wage and Hour bill. How much of the golden into our State I I should hk* to mm, to to stand far R. R. I stand for an judiciary as our chief bulwark of liberty. I oppose the Wag* and Hours bill (Black-Connery) as a piece of special favoritism for la bor against the farmers and other consumers. I stand as a Democrat seeking nothing and fearing no body. If I’m not a Democrat, let met get a good look at one, even if he be in a zoo. President Roosevelt is a persua sive and charming gentleman.
