f PAGE TWO THE NEWBERRY SUN FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1940 ELECTRICAL NOTICE The municipal department of the City of Newberry, S. Q, has been duly notified that the electrb city will be switched off here tor about forty five minutes on Sunday morning, December 1st, from 9 to around 9:45. Very respectfully, HOMER W. SCHUMPERT Superintendent BLIGHTS ON COUNTY FAIRS Residents of Charlotte are protest ing to the authorities of the annual fair held in that city against the character of midway entertainment Among the protests was one from members of a book club which said: “The following members of the Co- lonia Book Club have had occasion to discuss the last Southern States Fair •held in Mecklenburg county. It was remarked what a fine thing it is for the people Of this vicinity to have opportunity to see the various exhi bits and have clean, wholesome en tertainment. The blot on it all, and one that will cause disrepute and de terioration if allowed to continue, is the character of the exterior exhi bitions and ‘come on’ talk in front of various concessions, and the sen sual and bawdy advertising used along the midway.” Kidneys Must | Seek Money Here Clean Out Acids Excess acids, poisons and wastes in your blood are removed chiefly by your kidneys.

These organiza tions have already been set up in many South Carolina cities and are reporting liberal contributions. New berry will in all probability be very generous in its contributions to this brave little nation which is fighting for its very existence. It is seldom that the Greeks have sought funds in this country for any purpose but they have always contributed liberally to other causes. The Busj Bee cafe is donating all the money received in its place from 11 to 4 o'clock Sunday, December 1 to the above cause. By dining there Sunday you will contribute to the Greeks cause. If however, you had rather make a direct contribution get in touch with Dennis Athanos, or any of the Greeks at the Busy Bee and leave your donation. Greece is a poor country under the best of conditions and now that war has come to her outside help is ab solutely essential if she is to survive and fight a successful war against the invading foe. The Charlotte fair must have had a midway similar to that at the last Spartanburg county fair. This news paper called attention to the dirt and filth on the midway, but it was not successful in getting a response from any of the clubs or other civic orzanizations of Spartanburg. We do not know what midway ar rangements have been made for the fair in 1941, but we do know that any effort to introduce filthy and ob scene shows like those seen here in October will be opposed by these newspapers. Many midway attrac tions at the last fair were insults to the people who attended the fair. There should be no place at the fair for such dirt. There will not be next year if the good people of this coun ty will support the press in its ef forts to prevent.—Spartanburg Her ald. CIVIC LEAGUE TO MEET WITH MRS.

Miss Fleming kept an accurate ac count record of all expenses and re ceipts on her poultry enterprise last year, and following recommenda tions of the poultry specialists and her home demonstration agent. Her receipts come from selling eggs, fry ers and culitd hens. She started at the beginning of the season with a flock of 141 barred rocks- and at the end of the season had culled them to eighty five, which gave her about an average of 100 layers. These hens laid an average of 130 eggs which is far above the per hen production in the county. The in come from sale of eggs was $286.85 and the income from sale of fryers and culled hens was $291.95. Out of this came feed costs and cost of new equipment, which left a net income of $280.75. Miss Fleming raises her pullets each year and sells the cockerals for fryers. She believes in having good stock so got her baby chicks from a high egg production flock. She follows the feeding recommendations of the extension service, and carries out the rules of sanitation which help in control of insect pests and keeps down disease and parasites in flocks. HILL CORN RIVALS IOWA’S IN HEIGHT COX PROPOSES TO OUTLAW STRIKES WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.—Repre sentative Cox (D.-Ga.) asserting that “strikes against the government” were the “most shameful thing that has happened in this country in a long time,” proposed today that Con gress outlaw all such strikes during the “emergency period.” He told the house membership, as sembled outside the Capitol for the first time since 1857, that “labor •-ack- eteers” were responsible for the strikes. “I am wondering”, he said, “if Congress does not have the vitality or the real courage to take notice of what is happening to this country and do something in an effort to remedy it." The House had no business before it, and the session was devoted to speeches on various subjects. The meeting was held in the ways and means committee room of one of the two house office buildings because of repairs being made to the Capitol roof. MRS.

Dominick died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. D. L. Beden- baugh, Sunday night. She had been an invalid for two years and seriously ill one week prior to her death. Funeral services were conducted at the grave side in the Prosperity ce metery Monday afternoon by the Rev. J. V. Long. Mrs. Dominick was the daughter of the late William Lester of Confed erate war fame and Hannah Young Lester. She possessed a friendly dis- lowa. The height of the corn is attribut able to the fertility of these valleys, the availability of moisture and to the excellent farming practices of the hard working and frugal folks who live in this section of South Carofina. “However, it is partly due to the fact that these farmers are cogniz- ent of and put into practice some thing which their ancestors also knew. That is the fact that hardwood leaves add fertility to agricultural lands. Extension service specialists at Clemson, county agents through out the state, and state department of agriculture forces, vocational ag riculture teachers and many others have also been continuously advising farmers throughout the state to husband the organic matter in their soils,” said State forester H. A. Smith. CARNIVAL POSTPONED The Speers Street School Carnival has been postponed from Friday night, November 29th, until some time after Christmas. acter.

DEATHS ON ROAD THIS YEAR U. S. NEGRO PRESS COULD AID NAZIS Columbia, Nov. 24.—Four hundred and 12 persons died in traffic acci dents in South Carolina during the first nine months of this year, com pared with 359 for the same period in 1939, the highway department re ported today. September fatalities totaled 57, compared with 52 in September, 1939. More deaths resulted this year from non-collision accidents than any other type of accident. This type in cluding running off the road, over turning and other instances involv ing no collision, was responsible for 124 deaths. Traffic accidents of all types in creased 11 per cent in number and deaths increased 15 per cent. VOTE IN SENATE GIVES NEW DEAL SECOND SETBACK 2 MEN HURT IN ACCIDENTS Arvid Lominick was probably ser iously injured Sunday afternoon in an automobile accident near New Hope Methodist church. He is said to have suffered severe head injuries and is a patient at the local hospital, where little hope is held for his re covery. Grover Lanford was admitted to the local hospital following injuries sustained when a truck in which he was an occupant struck a telephone pole near Kinards Monday morning. He suffered chest injuries. Washington, Nov. 25.—Disregard ing the vigorous objections of the majority leadership, the senate vot ed today to take up the much-disput ed Logan-Waltei* bill, designed to give the courts increased authority to review and set aside the decisions of such government agencies as the labor board and securities commis sion. With scarcely more than a quorum present, the vote was 34 to 21. Rep ublican members voted solidly to give the measure a healring, and were joined by 15 Democrats. All the 21 opposing ballots were cast by Demo crats. It was the second successive defeat dealt out to congressional leaders since the presidential election. Last week the house rejected a proposal for adjournment. The senate’s decision gave the champions of the Logan-Walter meas ure their first success in a 19-month to get the measure before the sen ate . It had passed by the house, and predictions have been made that if it is enacted it will be vetoed by President Roosevelt. Editor of Kansas City Call Says Sub sidization Would Be Logical Procedure Hampton, Va., Nov. 25.—Chester A. Franklin, editor of the Kansas City Call, suggested to the national conference on negro participation in national defense today that as “a perfectly logical proposition” the Nazis might attempt to undermine the morale of this country by. subsi dizing the negro press. Addressing the press section of the two-day meeting being held in connection with the inauguration of Dr. Malcolm S. MacLean as sixth president of Hampton institute, Franklin said: “If I were a Nazi wanting tu get control of this country, I know just what I’d do. I’d approach a negro publisher who was living from hand to mouth and either buy his paper or subsidize him. Then I’d see that his columns would be filled with my kind of propaganda. ... It could easily happen.” To forestall such a development, he suggested that the United States encourage its large industries to aid the negro press in advertising so that it would become so strong there eould be no question of it being taken over.
