MAKING IT PLAIN
A friend has suggested that my
reference here last week to the “In
ternational Jew” might be construed
as a slam at all Jews. I don’t be
lieve that any of my readers are that
dumb, but I will clarify the matter
just in case one crept in while I was
not looking. For the past 25 years
to my knowledge the term “Interna
tional Jew” has been applied to
Jews of the Lenine-Trotski type of
trouble makers, and monied Jews
who have financial interests in other
countries. No one but Hitler would
condemn all Jews. Thousands of
them fought for this country In the
last war and would do it again. I
don’t believe that the average Jew
has any more use for the “Interna
tional Jew” than I do. Many of these
trouble-making Jews head up radical
organizations, and they have been
denounced by patriotic Jews for their
actions.
WHAT ABOUT IT NOW?
I wonder what those who wanted
to push us into this war a few weeks
back are thinking, now that France
has collapsed ? Had the war-makers
•had their way our boys would have
been landing in France just about
the time the French were giving un
and the whole job of whipping Hitler
would have been handed over to
them. We should be thankful that
the campaign is on and that the Re
publicans will hold Dr. Roosevelt’s
toes to the fire.
United States Army
Wants Young Men
First Sargeant C. R. Vaughan was
in the city Saturday in interest of
the army recruiting office at Colum
bia. Sargeant Vaughan said that
boys who wished to enter the army
should get in touch with him at the
Postoffice building at Columbia. By
phoning or writing Sargeant Vaugh
an blanks will be sent and these may
be notarized and the young men in
ducted into service the same day
they arrive in Columbia.
Young men are wanted between the
ages of 18 and 35 who are single and
have no dependants. Those enlisting
now may choose the branch of army
service they desire and may even
choose the post in which they wish to
be located. Those desiring to enlist
in the air service may follow the pro
cedure outlined above as the air ser
vice is a part of the army.
Sargeant Vaughan said enlistment
was moving along at a lively clip at
the Columbia station. The strength
of the army is to be brought up to
400,000 men in a very short time.

POPULATION DOWN 1100
Newberry county’s population is
about 1100 less than 10 years ago, ac
cording to figures just released hy
Henry L. Fulmer, District Supervisor.
Coverage by water of Lake Murray
farms and the buying up of farms in
the Sumter forest area is given as
two of the reasons. While many Lake
Murray farmers moved to other
parts of the county, many of them
bought farms in adjoining counties.
The exodus of negroes to the North
which began in the 20’s has continued
to some extent even to the present
and a good bit of the 1100 shortage
may be charged to this.

Extra Pay Goes
Into Library Fund
The following letter from members
of the lower House to the county
treasurer is self-explanatory:
Newberry, S. C.
June 26, 1940
Mr. Ralph Black
Treasurer for Newberry County
Newberry, S. C.
Dear Mr. Black.
Enclosed herewith please find
vouchers in the amount of Thirteen
Hundred Fifty (81350) Dollars as re
presented by our three separate
vouchers for Four Hundred Fifty
($450) Dollars each. We are indors
ing these over to you as County
Treasurer with the request that you
place them in a special fund to be
known as the Newberry County Li
brary Fund. At a later date, the
Newberry County Delegation will
pass an appropriate resolution setting
out in detail how this fund is to be
spent. In general, we may say now
that the money will be used either
as a nucleus for a construction fund
for a County Library Building or as
a fund to purchase books for the New
berry County Library.
We believe that the Town of New
berry, the County of Newberry, and
the various civic organizations of
Newberry County can well afford to
supplement this sum in order that an
adequate library can be furnished
the citizens of Newberry County.
We believe that such a library would
be of immeasurable educational, re
creational, and cultural benefit. It
seems to us that no county can well
afford to be without a modern com
plete public library,
We are turning over this amount to
you because it represents the extra
pay which was voted to the members
of the General Assembly during the
past session. All three of us cam
paigned vigorously against the prac
tice of appropriating extra pay for
members of the General Assembly.
We stated during the campaign that
we would work against any such pro
posal and that we would refuse ex
tra pay in the event it was voted over
our protest. We have fulfilled these
pledges even , though at a personal
sacrifice because of the extraordinary
length of the session and the large
expense necessarily incurred by us
during such period. Now because V’e
hope that some good can come from a
practice which is, to say the least,
Monitions Plant Is
Sought By Hare
WASHINGTON, June 25. — Rep
Butler B. Hare reported today that
he had completed arrangements for a
conferences with the National De
fense Advisory board relative to the
location of a munitions plant in the
third South Carolina district.
The pending conference will take
place in the very near future, Hare
said, at which time the South Caro
linian will present details of possible
sites to the board of consideration.
Should a munitions plant be un
dertaken in South Carolina, it will
form one of a string of new plants
which the board is known to be con
templating.
Representative Hare today, also
was in touch with officials of the
Federal Surplus Crop corporation
with regard to the distributing of
South Carolina apples in the South
Carolina relief program. He urged
that “if the policy of purchasing
apples for distribution in relief pro
gram is to be followed this fall, the
aple growers of Oconee and Pickens
counties should be given the oppor
tunity to supply apples in distribu
tion in South Carolina rather than
bringing them in from out of the
state.”
Corporation officials assured Mr.
Hare that serious consideration
would be given this condition as soon
as the extent of the apple crops be
comes known.

Local Legion Post
For Preparedness
TO THE PRESIDENT AND THE
CONGRESS OF THE UNITED
STATES:
In the present National and Inter
national crises, you, as leaders of our
government have sources of informa
tion which the people of this nation
do not have; therefore you can best
formulate national policies of defense.
However, in formulating such poli
cies, as leaders in this Democracy,
you will necessarily take into consid
eration the public’s attitude, and
Whereas, the freedom of our na
tional and individual liberties are
seriously threatened by the ruthless
aggression of the dictator nations,
which, if unchecked, will destroy our
democratic form of government by
fifth column activities and eventually
actual invasion.
Therefore -be it resolved by The
American Legion, Post No. 24, New
berry, S. C. in regular meeting as
sembled;
First. That we offer our services
to our Nation and to our community
for the promotion of their safety
against aggression from within and
from without.
Second. That we heartily commend
the efforts of our President and Con
gress to prepare this nation for de
fense and entreat you to exercise
fully, with boldness and dispatch, the
leadership which we have vested in
you.
Third. That we recommend the
enactment of such legislation as will
permit our government and its citi
zens to extend to Great Britian and
her allies prompt assistance by furn
ishing war materials, supplies and
necessary credit to the full extent of
our ability WITHOUT JEOPARDIZ
ING OUR HOME DEFENSE.
Fourth. That we deplore the at
titude of those citizens who would
place governmental expenditures for
current peace time needs above our
pressing demand for large appropria
tions to facilitate immediate defense;
these citizens apparently being un
able to understand that their enjoy
ment of peace and personal liberty to
speak, act and worship as they please
may be destroyed unless vigorously
and promptly defended.
Fifth. That we, as members or
The American Legion Post No. 24,
Newberry S. C., will stand with you.
whole*-heartedly in whatever action
you may take, though it will mean
sacrifices, hardships and suffering
for months and perhaps years.
Sixth. That copies of this resolu
tion be furnished to the President, to
Senator Ed. D. Smith, James F.
Byrnes, Congressman Butler B. Hare,
Department Commander The Ameri
can Legion of South Carolina and the
local press.

ST. PHILIPS ITEMS
It is getting very dry in this sec

least we think so. In other sections
they are getting plenty rain and the
grass is about to take their crops. I
heard a man from the upper section
say the grass is almost as high as the
cotton and the gardens are drowned
out.
We have in this section fine pros
pects for a crop. I don’t believe there
is any in Newberry county that can
beat it.
