Senate For Peak USED CAR VAUIES Issues Formal Statement Relative To Entering: The Race. Washington, July IT.—In making formal announcement of his can didacy for the U. S. Senate to suc ceed Senator Byrnes, Congressman Butler B. Hare said today there are three reasons for his action. First, he would like to represent the State in the United States Senate; Second, there is an “un limited emergency” in this country and our government is in im mediate need of trained and ex perienced men to assist in analyz ing, interpreting and solving many pressing problems; and third, he feels that he has had this neces sary training and experience. His formal statement follows: I shall rely upon my training, experience and constructive legis lative record for support. During ten years service in Congress I have represented every interest of the people in two congressional districts extending from the mountains to the sea, a constitu ency which represents every voca tion, trade, business, industry and profession within the State, and I am willing to let them say how faithfully and efficiently I have served. I know the shoes of Sen ator Byrnes will be hard to fill be cause I undertook the job when I succeeded him following his re tirement from the House in 1925. The people throughout the State have a good idea as to how well I succeeded. I am a democrat who believes in political parties, party platforms, and party regularity and, if elected, I will be able to cooperate fully with our party leaders, particularly those in the Senate where there are many former members of the House with whom I have served, al though my first obligations will be to the people and State of South Carolina. Among the outstanding accom plishments of Mr. Hare in congress was securing the passage of the Produce Agency Act several years ago making it unlawful for a con signee receiving perishable farm crops on consignment to make any false report as to condition, sale, or price received for such crops. He was the author of the bill and its passage has eliminated many unscrupulous commission mer chants and has saved fruit and vegetable growers many millions of dollars. He won for himself a national’ reputation when he became . the author and steered through congress over President Hoover’s veto the first Philippine Independence Act which, if it had not been amended, would have provided independence to the Philippine Islands last July 4th and our country would now be relieved of a great military lia bility in the Orient. But Mr. Hare thinks his greatest contribution to the welfare of the people was when he introduced his bill to insure bank deposits, the first bill of its kind introduced in Congress. This was in 1931, but the bill was not reached before his retirement from the House the following year. However, it was one of the first pieces of legislation enacted under our present democratic adminis tration, and he believes it is the greatest piece of legislation en acted within the last century. In discussing the matter of a successor to Senator Byrnes the Pee Dee Advocate in an editorial March 20 stated: ‘ The Honorable Butler B. Hare of Saluda, would fit immediately into the picture and capably carry on the work of Senator Byrnes with least interruption. He is al ready in Congress and in harness. It would be merely a mechanical operation for him to lay aside his congressional mantle and transfer to the other end of the Capitol and don the senatorial toga.

His committee as signments have familiarized him with our foreign situation, he being particularly familiar with our problem in the Orient where it is said our greatest foreign danger lies at present. His speeches last year on the protec tive tariff system and our recipro cal trade policy mark him as an authority on the.subject of foreign trade—a very valuable asset to South Carolina and her neighbor ing states when the emergency is over and Congress begins to re construct a new foreign trade policy.” How To Use Your Cotton Stamps opular and well known in both # Now is the time for all farm families to plan how they may get the greatest satisfaction from the use of their cotton stamps, says Miss Matilda Bell, County Home Demonstration Agent. Cotton stamps will be issued early in August to the farmers who have already signed the in tention sheets to take part in the Supplementary Cotton Program. What will cotton stamps buy? Why any new cotton goods made of cotton which is produced and manufactured in the United States. The stamps are in twenty- five cents denomination put up in books of five dollars. The whole amount can be spent at once or you can use only one or two at a time. Before spending any stamps each family should have a “get- together conference” on planning to get the most value from cotton stamps. The housekeeper will want to check over her supply of sheets, mattress covers and pads, bed spreads, pillowcases, towels, scarfs, table cloths and mats. Then she will also probably want “to dress- up” some of the upholstered fur niture in colorful, washable cotton slip covers; or hang cotton cur tains and draperies at the windows all over the house. Cotton clothing for men, women, and children can’t be beat for its durability, its washability, and now its “style-ability” is just as attractive as any other material. Cotton fabrics can be suitable for all different types of clothing— from the sturdy denim for overalls to the softest voile for a dress-up dress. The stamps will go much farther in clothing the family if some yard goods are purchased and certain garments made by the homemaker. Include provision for piece goods in your family plan. Even if you don’t have cotton stamps, you will probably want to take advantage of the excellent stock of cotton goods our local merchants are putting in for August. “Call for cotton when you buy”. Some hints on new processes for cotton fabrics ar£ given elsewhere in this paper. -xx- Plenty Of Peaches Crop reporters are predicting the biggest crop of peaches this year since the record-breaker of 1931. By even the most conservative estimates, they say, there’ll be plenty of peaches for all uses this summer. “Peaches come in white and yellow—with cling and free stones,” points out Miss Matilda Bell, County Home Demonstration ^gent. “Usually it’s personal preference and the way you Intend to use the peaches that decides the kind to buy. “There’s little difference in food value among peaches except in vitamin A value. But yellow- fleshed peaches outrank the white varieties on this score. The yel low-fleshed ones are rated as a good source of vitamin A. Accord ing to home economists in the United States Department of Ag riculture, a medium-sized dish of yellow peaches will supply about one-third of the vitamin A an adult needs for a day. This vita min, of course, is needed by both grown-ups and children for good nutrition. “Except for the very early ones, clingstone peaches usually are not eaten fresh. They are, however, especially suitable for cooking for pickling, and for commercial can ning. “Most home canners prefer mid season or late yellow-fleshed peaches. Some of the well-known varieties of this class are Elberta, Salwey, J. H. Hale, Late Crawford, and Smock. For those who pre fer to can white-fleshed peaches, Belle, Hiley, and Champion are three varieties that fill the bill. “Peaches are one of the easiest fruits of all to can at home,” says Miss Bell. “In canning fruits it is advisable to prepare in advance the sirup which will be needed. The degree of concentration of the sirup recommended for dif ferent fruits varies and is desig- 1 nated as thin, medium, and thick. For thin sirup use 1 cup of sugar and 3 cups of water. For medium sirup use 1 cup of sugar and 2 cups of water. For thick sirup use 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water. In each case the sugar and water are heated together and stirred carefully until the sugar is dissolved; then the sirup brought to a boil. Fruit juice may be substituted for the water in the sirup with marked improvement in flavor. Scald, dip into cold water, and peel. Lye-peel or hand-peel firm clingstones. Cut into size desired, removing pits. Precook. Fill con tainers, then add sirup of desired consistency, in which one cracked peach pit for every quart of sirup has been boiled. For pint and quart glass jars, boil twenty min utes; for tin cans, boil fifteen minutes. DR. HENRY J. GODIN Sight Specialist Eyes Examined Spectacles And Eye Glasses Professionally Fitted.
