My efforts, accomplishments and activities in
the Congress are all matters of public record and
open to the public for criticism. As I have not
heard of any public criticism of either up to date I
am, therefore, glad to assume that my record is
approved by the general public. I trust that my
official activities may continue to merit the confi
dence heretofore reposed. However, we are ex
pectin, 1 ! to face eater problems in the near future
and they \*tll he of increasing complexity, for we
are in the greatest war of all ages. Our Constitu
tional fYStem of Government and the institutions es
tablished under it are being assailed from without
as weH as from within. They are being attacked on
the battlefronts as well as the home-front. Our
boys are fighting and dying on foreign soil and the
uncharted seas to defend them. We must preserve
our democracy in their absence. Instead of our
trained and experienced men in the armed forces
}>eing sent home they are retained to face the ene
my on the battlefront. I trust I am not egotistic
when I express the hope that the people of this dis
trict will follow the same theory and rely upon my
traiping and experience when they select a Con
gressman to fight the enemy on the home front.

Greenwood’s Largest, Leading And Best Department Store
GREENWOOD, S. C.
Our country does not have e-
nough paper to meet all demands.
Great quantities are used to
protect overseas shipments of
foodstuffs, medical supplies and
military equipment for our Armed
Forces, and as war needs come
first, it is estimated that during
the next few months only about
half as many paper bags and half
as much wrapping paper as we
used during the same period last
year will be available here at
home.
Every household and every re
tail store in the United States
will be affected.
Here is the way customers can
help stretch the available supply;
1. Take with you, and use and
re-use, your own shopping bags,
either paper or textile.
2. Accept without wrapping all
articles in boxes, glass jars, tin
cans or other manufacturer’s
packaging that can safely be car
ried without additional protec
tion.
3. Do not ask for a bag within
a bag, extra stuffing, carry-out
boxes, etc.
4. Save every bit of unusable
waste paper and turn it in to the
salvage collection depot of your
community.
The War Production Board
urges retailers to use wrapping
materials only for protection, not
for appearance, to use the small
est amount possible for each cus
tomer, to see that edch bag car
ries its full load, to re-use wrap
ping materials in making an ex
change, and to carry on intensive
training among his own employ
ees to make this conservation pro
gram effective within his own
store.
ONE NEW BAG OR PIECE OF
WRAPPING PAPER MUST DO
THE WORK WHICH WAS DONE
BY THREE OR FOUR BEFORE
THIS COUNTRY WENT TO WAR.
We can help relieve the paper
shortage if each of us discourages
every unnecessary use of paper in
packaging and wrapping, gets as
much use as he possibly can out
of each piece of paper, and then
saves it for the waste paper col
lection.
