SELFISH MEN
Let’s see now. When Mr. Roose
velt was in Gainsville, Ga., a few
weeks back he said the prosperity of
the country was being held back by
a few selfish men.
Last week he asked the congress
for 6,000 million dollars to bring
back prosperity.
Think of what the cost would be
if the country had a couple of hund
red of the type of men the presi
dent berated at Gainsville.

We see where the gals in a West
enr university have agreed upon a
pattern for a “super-perfect” man.
Briefly, such a specimen would be
able to “wrinkle his forhead like
Clark Gable, has a mouth like Ro
bert Taylor, the suave sopphistica
tion of William Powell and the viri
lity of Spencer Tracy.”
It seems as though the gals don’t
mind if he is ignorant and trifling,
which would appear to indicate that
they do not place a very high value
on the things they are sent to school
to acquire. They seem to prefer a
glorified louge lizzard.
PROGRESS
An admiral suggests that the U
S. construct three 45,000 ton battle-
•hops. Modern battleships cost $2,
000 a ton, or $90,000,000 each.
Japan is fixing to build some as
large—and mount 18-inch guns on
them.
Civilzation is certainly moving at
a rapid clip—right back to the jun
gle, where the whim of the wolf is
the law of the pack.
It’s things like this that make us
wonder if what we call civilization,
with all its folly, cruelty and sham
is worth saving. It’s a senseless,
barbarous civilization (could there be
such a civilization ?) to say the least.
HE TURNED THIEF
On the front page of the Bir
mingham Age Herald some days ago
we saw a picture that haunts us.
It showed Richard Whitney, former
head of the New York stock exchange
and given from five to ten years in
Sing Sing for larceny of securities
entrusted to him, on ms way to prl-
son shackled to two convicts.
“Whitney,” said the reader under
the picture, “showed no emotion "
No wonder. He was probably too
numbed by this tragedy to register
any emotion.
Whitney for many years was a
top flight business man and social
leader in New York. The position
he filled on the exchange for so
many years was thought to require
a man of innate honesty and great
business acumen. Ordinarily, one
would find in men in such stations
many other qualities that make them
superior to Die average run of men.
But Whitney, it seems, lacked these
qualities. Stress revealed him as a
thief, and so they took him away to
prison manacled to two felons.
The picture disturbs us because
it causes us to question the motives
and integrity of many men whom we
trust implicitly. We wonder if they
too, faced with the dilemma that
faced Whitney would steal something
entrusted to them. We wonder if in
the most virtuous of us there is a
conquering integrity—an unyielding
honesty.
Again that picture flashes into our
mind like a meteor across the
heavens—and again we wonder.

How to rule death off the hiways
is a vital problem confronting every
community in the United States.
Realizing this, local clubs and civic
organizations have offered their ser
vices as co-sponsors of the Drive
Safely Crusade being conducted by
the C. D. Coleman Company and its
dealers.
The following organizations have
wholeheartedly offered their support
in the drive to save lives, prevent ac
cidents, and avoid injuries in this
area:
The Civic League
Chamber of Commerce
Mayor of Newberry
The Blue Ridge Council, Boy
Scouts of America
Sheriff’s office
Members of these organizations
are being asked to fully acquaint
themselves with the Drive Safely
Crusade, to sign the Drive Safely
Pledge, and to get his friends to sign
it. In this way every citizen can do
his part to promote th e cause of
safe driving for, in the final analysis,
safety depends upon each individual
driver.
The Drive Safely Pledge sets
down no hard and fast rule but mere
ly pledges motorists to apply the
Golden Rule to driving, to consider
the rights of others, to observe state
and local traffic regulations, and to
apply the common sense rules of safe
driving. This is a pledge which
everyone can easily keep, a pledge
which every good citizen will glad
ly make.
Motorists who sign this pledge will
receive, free of charge and without
any obligation, a handsome metal
emblem for their car, reading “Pledg
ed to Drive Safely.” Thus they will
tell the world that they are going
to do their part to prevent the appall
ing number of accidents on our
streets and highways. In a further
effort to make motorists safety
consious, monthly contests are being
conducted which will award 75 prizes,
totaling $1,000.00, to North and
South Carolina motorists.
The April contest is on drive safe
ly slogans of ten words or less. The
type of slogan desired is one that
will make motorists think—a few
words that will stick in their minds
and influence them to be more care
ful. Slogans are fun to write and
in writing them you have a chance
to do your part in promoting safety
and to try for one of the large cash
awards,
Full detail* ©f th« current monthly
contest, a* well as Drive Safely
Pledge* and plates, are available
without cost or obligation at all
Pure Oil Service Stations- Since
this is a state-wide drive, local offi
cials, civic organizations and clubs,
are anxious that Newberry make an
outstanding record in pledges signed.
SPUD NOT ALWAYS POPULAR
The lowly spud had a hard time
reaching its way to the world's din
ner plate as will be seen from the
following:
“The first mention made of the po
tato in European literature is to be
found in the writings of a German
botanist named Clusins, in 1588,”
the clipping says,
"Two had been sent him from
Flanders and he made a plate of the
‘rare plant’ for his book. It was
a hundred and fifty years after this
that it began to be planted for food
in Switzerland, Everywhere it met
with the greatest opposition, just
as all the benefactions of the world,
either moral or physical always have.
“Philanthropists strove to explain
its advantages to the common peo*
ple, but they were hooted at, if not
stoned. Fields planted with them
had to be carefully watched at
night, or all the plants would be de
stroyed. This antipathy is very
singular, when we remember what
a narrow range of food the poorer
people had at that time.
“The people of Ireland fought
very ham against its introduction
among them, whereas now it is so
much their mainstay that their
country has given it its name. And
yet, when we are told how pota
toes were first prepared for the
table, it is to be wondered that they
ever did become popular.
“One writer speaks of the potato
as ‘a vegetable much like a Jerusa
lem artichoke, but not as good or
wholesome,’ and that they were to
be roasted and sliced and eaten with
a sauce of wine and sugar. And we
can imagine what an unenviable ar
ticle of food it was in its primitive
days, when we reflect that it was
fifty years ago, and contrast that
with now,”
REPORT ACCUSES WPA
ST. PHILIPS ITEMS
I am sure everybody was pleased
with the first sermon by our new
pastor. He spoke on an interesting
subject—Peter Denying Christ. Why
did Peter deny Christ? Because
his time had not yet come and they
would have crucified him.
SPECIAL STAMP ISSUED TO
C0MEM0RATE AIR MAIL WEEK
The beautiful flowers are bloom
ing before May. It is said that the
April showers bring forth the flow
ers and the May stops the way. The
month of May is the most beautiful
time of year. You can see and
smell the beauty of the flowers.
Some of our farmers have a
mighty good stand of cotton but the
cold is against it. It is reported
that there was frost again that
hurt a few things.
We regret to hear of Miss Lot-
tye Halfacre having to go to Green
ville hospital to be treated for her
eyes and her many friends wish her
well. We also regret to learn that
Mr. David Stone is critically ill in
the Newberry hospital with double
pneumonia. His many friends are
looking forward to his recovery.
Mr. W. B. Kinard is doing as well
could be expected. He has not been
out of the house for several weeks.

Greenville, S. C., April 6—A distinc
tive two. color air mail stamp will
be issued by the United States Post
Office Department as a special recog
nition of National Air Mail Week,
May 15 to 21, which will be the
greatest effort in the history of
this service to increase its effective
ness and popular support.
An announcement today at Na
tional Air Mail Week state head
quarters here by State Chairman
Dixon D. Davis said this stamp
will be symbolic of the Air Mail and
s.'iould be highly desirable for the
many thousands of collectors who
will send and receive letters on the
special flights that week.
Chairman Davis said he has been
informed by Postmaster General
Farley that this stamp will be of
six-cent denomination, the same
size as the conunemorative issues.
The border, of’ distinctive Air Mail
design, will be printed in blue and
the central design will be in red.
This design will depict an eagle
with outstretched wings, bearing in
its talons a shield, olive wreath
and a bundle of arrows. Numerous
ornamental details have been includ
ed in the over-all design.
This stamp first will be placed on
sale May 14, at Dayton, Ohio, which
is the home of the Wright Brothers,
who built the first successful air
plane, and at St. Petersburg, Flori
da, where the first passenger flight
was made. On the following days
of Air Mail Week, this stamp will
be on sale at many thousands of
Post Offices throughout the United
States.
“The National Air Mail
Committee regards as particularly
thoughtful the cooperation that the
the State Chairman said, these spe
cial routes for the “pick-up service”
that day will present a great objec
tive for th e further expansion of
the net-work of regular lines. “It
is not unreasonable to expect that
in the course of a relatively few
years regular flight will he made
over many of these pick-up routes,
thus giving to a much greater part
of the Nation’s population the num
erous benefits of the Air Mail,” he
said.

TAX NOTICE
Washington, April 84.—The Works
progress administration was accused
today of spending $186,000 on two
pamphlets, a set of phonograph re
cords and a couple of reels of movie
film to publicize the works program.
A minority report of the senate un
employment committee said Admini
strator Hopkins, during hearing
hod defended the expenditures
maintaining “it was proper for the
infor
government to impart information to
its citizens.”
Asserting the money would have
provided year-round Jobs for 232 un
employed, the report said;
“There seems to be only one word
for this action and that is—waste”.
