$30 Monthly Pension For Old
People Supported By Taylor
State Of South Carolina Alone Re
sponsible For Size Of Pay ments In
This State—Help For Blind, De
pendent Children, In Act.
Payment of $30 a month old age
pensions, with federal funds avail
able for half of this amount, is pro
vided under the provisions of the So
cial Security Act passed by Congress,
for which Congressman John C. Tay
lor worked and voted.
What has been done in the matter
of regulating the amount ot these
payments in South Carolina is a re
sponsibility that rests solely with the
state government at Columbia. These
benefits are administered by a state
organization, manned entirely by state
appointees, and no member of con
gress has any voice in the South Ca
rolina plan, its official set-up, amount
of payments, or eligibility of persons.
Congressman Taylor and the feder
al government have done their part
in enacting the Social Security Act
and providing th e fundamental appro
priations.
The doors of Mr. Taylor’s office
are always open to those who feel
that they have not received th e con
sideration to which they are entitled,
and he does everything in his power
to see that justice is done, but it
should be remembered that the final
determination of these matters rest
in the hands of a STATE organiza
tion.
The Social Security program, which
Mr. Taylor actively supported, pro
vides broad benefits, including gene
rous payments to the blind, persons
crippled and vocationally handicapped,
unfortunate, dependent children and
assistance to mothers who cannot take
car e of themselves. There are num
erous benefits provided under the fed
eral law, all of which are available
to all of the people, of all states, in
their full proportion, when federal
funds are properly matched.
Derrick Calls Upon People
To Consider Means Of
Saving*Farm Lands
Following up my short article of several weeks ago referring
to Farm Terracing, I want to say I am sure we will all agree
that first of all the farm is th e basis of our existence. Its wel
fare affects our standards of living, oUr businesses, our work of
all kinds, professional as well as governmental, our homes and
employment, our churches, schools, orphanges, hospitals, and
many other worthwhile organizations and institutions. In fact,
our economic fabric and freedom are at stake.
Terracing properly done and followed up would increase the
yield of our crops many thousands of dollars each year, probably
more than 50 per cent over a period of five years. Think what
this would mean toward putting folks back on their feet again.
Mortgages could be cancelled, back taxes paid, homes repaired,
doctor and hospital bills paid, and other obligations met. The
business man, the professional man, the laboring folks and all
others could begin to smile again.
Our base, which is the farm, has been weakening for many
years until now we have an alarming amount of wasteland,
ditches, galled places, and very thin soil on which to try to make
a living. Probably more than 70 per cent of all the farmers are
small farmers, who have been fighting for existence until they
are weak and can hardly continue operation and are surely un
able to terrace the land which would save the soil and fertilizer
and enable them to produc e at much less cost. This will also
strengthen the base, to a higher standard which will make the
farm profitable again. Then farm land will again be in demand
at a fair and rising price. Can this be done? I say yes.
I am pleading with the people of Newberry county to think
seriously on this/ matter, and in my next article I will attempt to
show you some ways in which this can be don e with little or no
cost to the small farmer who is not able to pay the cost of it.

WRIGHT FIELD, WEST END
.onnie Looks'Em Over
(By Clarence Metis)
Plans arc shaping up nicely for
the all-star game between start of
the Dutch Fork and Saluda Valley
Leagues, to be played at Wright
field, West End, here on Wednesday,
August 10th, at 4 p. m.
An overflow crowd is expected to
be on hand when the game begins.
Twenty-one players have been select
ed to represent each league and from
this array of stars will be presented
some of th e best semi-pro players in
South Carolina. The complete list
of players selected by each league
and the club with which they play is
as follows: B. Eleazer, H. Eleazer,
Rister, H. Bostain, A. Bostaln,
Gates, Wessinger, Cumalander, and
Koon, of Chapin; Gaffney, of Whit
mire; N. Stuck, S. Stuck, “Mick”
Eargle, Keith, and Yarborough, of
Peak; Ringer, of O’Neal!; C. Long,
H. Wise, and Summer, of Hartford;
R. Lester and E. Boozer of Stoney
Hill. These will represent Dutch
Fork and have combined batting av
erages of 343.
Players representing the Saluda
Valley league are as follows: Koon,
“Lefty” Boozer, Hlbbie Ayoub,
Sease, Buck Bouknight, Bowers and
Halfacre, of Jolly Street; D. Boozer,
I. Rodgers, Johnson, and Crouch, of
Saluda; F. Shealy, Merchant, and
Livingston, of Newberry; Harmon
and J. Martin, of Mollohon, Kirby,
and Boyd, of Matthews. Utility men
are Whitman, Pauling and Rankin of
Batesburg. These have a combined
batting average of 317.
“Fox” Boozer, a graduate of New
berry college and a star will manage
the Saluda Valley team. Bill Hatton,
well known sport fan will direct
the game for the Dutch Porkers,
Of interest will be the fact that
one player, Koon, who has played in
both leagues has been been selected
by both leagues.
The probable batteries for the op
ening of the game will be “Mick”
Eargle and Keith for Dutch Fork
and “Lefty” Boozer and Koon for
Saluda Valley. Both batteries work
together regularly in league compe
tition. Both pitchers have a good
record. In the four games, Boozer
has worked he won three and lost
one, and has a record of 53 strike
outs. “Mick” Eargle won 10 and lost
on e in Dutch Fork.
A reasonable admission will be
charged, and the public is invited to
come out and enjoy the game. Plenty
of baseball is promised all who at
tend.

FINAL SERVICES FOR
MRS. MINNIE HUNTER
By LONNIE FRANKLIN
Down the Home Stretch
Back in March we gav e you our
dope on how the Big Leagues would
finish in October. New we are down
the home stretch and what do we find.
St. Louis had Dizzy Dean, now he is
with Chicago; the Cubs have a new
manager and more than their share of
injuries so far.
New York has played the season
minus Whitehead, one of the best
second basemen in the National
League. Pittsburg has a shot in the
arm that they think is pennant fever,
and St. Louis is down under since
there is no Dean to work every other
day and Mize and Medwick can’t get
going together. Well, New York Is
still the horse to play to win. They
have been in a slump for a month or
more and getting somebody who can
do more than tote a glove at second
in Cissell will find them under the
wire at the finish.
Chicago is likely to finish in sec
ond as the Pirates won’t stay hot
verv long and Cincinatti will finish
in the first division due to the Cards’
worst season in years.
In the American the Yanks today
have a 2 1-2 game lead but they and
those Indians ar P playing far better
percentage ball the last few weeks
than either can hope to do on out.
But th e Yank* are ahead and have
won 20 out of 22 games, yet they are
a far cry from the Yanks of even
last season in hitting power.
Cleveland has been hot all season,
but why not? Allen and Feller went
months without losing; now Harder is
going to town and the Indiana can
count half their wins by one run so
if they lag as well as the Yanks in
a row of double headers don’t be sur
prised.
Chicago traded Bonura, the one
hitter they had and a first division
berth went with it while Detroit has
had everything bad a team could have
except Greenburg—except for his hit
ting they may b e in the Sally League
standings. Washington is playing
about as expected due to .Detroit’s
flop.
Yes, I still say five cents will pay
a New Yorker’s way to the Series
and take a look at the standings;
you will find St. Louis and Pittsburg
out of position in the National while
Detroia and Chicago are out in the
American with two months to go.
The standings in the National:
Mrs. Minnie McLaren Hunter, 65,
died at the home of her sister, Mrs.
Jennie Howie in Anniston, Ala.,
Monday. She is survived by one
brother, Jim McLaren of Chester and
on e sister, Mrs. Howie.
Her body arrived at Clinton Wed
nesday and funeral services were
held Thursday morning from the Mc-
Swaln funeral home with Dr. Charles
Shealy in charge. Burial was in
Rosemont cemetery.
FIREMEN PLANNING BIG DAY

The Textile Teams
P'aying the best ball in years the
textile boys are in torrid races on
the last lap. The Mid State shows
Winnsboro, Lockhart, and Monarch so
close a postage stamp could cover
the space while Newberry and Jo
anna are in a dead heat for the play
off place.
The Central Carolina finds Enoree
and Matthews almost a tie for first
place with Greenwood and Ware
Shoals as play off teams. The Saluda
Valley will see Saluda, Jolly Street,
Matthews, and Newberry in a play
off and this class B league has done
well in its first year, so Bill Eargle
and Clarence Metts, take a bow. ,
Yeah! An all-star game between
the Saluda Valley and Dutch Fork
will be played August 10th at Wright
Field.
