Senator Byrnes and Attoiney General Jackson both are men of em- ijnenoe, convection and integrity. They will become this highest court. They lack, as all of the president’s appointees have lacked, any vestige of judicial experience, but they are energetic lawyers and perhaps will make up in diligent application what they have missed in training.

WHERE THE RACES UNDER STOOD (From a Letter of Spectator) A colored man of Sumter writes The State about the good spirit prevailing in that good town between the white and colored people. Sum ter is a fine city and it is k fine city because it is full of good people. Whenever white and colored people live in peaceful and cordial relations, as is true in Sumter, it augurs well for both races. AH of us who were reared in old Carolina have known colored people all our days. A white man used to have a protective atti tude toward his “darkies”; he would stand hy them in trouble and would do whatever he could to prevent trouble. Sometime ago a colored man was put in jail in my county because of a car wreck. I did not hear of the trouble until a couple of days had passed. I called the jailor and asked about this man and said, “This Is one of my darkies and a good fellow.” The jailc - responded with a question, “How many of you claim this man? You are the second white man who has telephoned me about him?” It is true, what the colored cor respondent wrote, tViat the negroes are courteously treated in the stores. Courtesy begets courtesy. The court eous colored person usually fiinds a responsive attitude of cordiality among white people. Here in the South the negro knows the white people and their habits; the whites know the negroes. Usually there is no friction. The ne groes have their own schools and churches, their own community life, and are happy. Outsiders don’t under stand all this and though usually ■well-intentioned, they blunder. At a luncheon of twenty-five out standing businessmen of Newberry, held last Tuesday, Mr. C. Norwood Hastie impressed upon the group the fact that South Carolina is faced with a problem which, if not solved in the near future, will deprive her of her greatest opportunities for progress and advancement in the na tion. Mr. Hastie offered figures to prove that the lack of business, com merce, and industry in the Palmetto State is resulting in a virtual exodus of young men who represent the life blood of any state or community. He cited the case, so true in innumerable actual instances in this vicinity, of the family which educates its children only to find that local business has not sufficient room for them here— finally sending these young men to other states and distant cities to make their way in the world. He said that this compares favorably with the process of “culling” out chick ens or live stock, keeping the culls and disposing of the better speci mens. The result is that the strain becomes constantly poorer and poorer. Mr. Hastie and Mr. D. A. Skinner, General Manager of Organized Busi ness, Inc., offered facts and figures to show that many improvements must be made in taxation, legislation, and business methods in Sodth Caro lina, if commerce is to progress and new industries are to be attracted. The newly organized body known as Organized Business, Inc., now has a large following throughout the state, and its many worthy accom plishments for business and industry during the last year predict that its membership will grow to surprising propotions in the coming months. In addition to the Newbery Chamber of Commerce which arranged the lunch eon meeting Tuesday, other local members of Organized Business, Inc., are as follows: W. Sloan Chapman; Dr. S. J. Derrick, President Emeri tus, Newberry College; W. E. Long & Co.; Mollohon Mfg. Co., Wilton Todd, Mgr.; Newberry Cotton Mills, Z. F. Wright, Pres. & Treas.; New berry Hotel, F. M. Scurry, Mgr.; Newberry Steam Ldry. & Dry Clean ing Co., C. I. Youmans; Oakland Cotton Mills, D. O.' Capenter, Mgr.; Odorless Cleaners, E. Moody Atch ison; S. C. National Bank, (Newber ry Branch), C. C. Hutto, Mgr.; T. & C. Cleaners, Ernest CfurY; Newber ry Coca-Cola Bottling Co., L. F. Fischer, Mgr.; Vance & Dwiggins Co., Inc., James P. Fulp; Hotel Wise man, J. E. Wiseman. Performance Check Is Now Half Done The first check of performance, un der the 1941 Farm program in New berry County, has passed the half way mark, according to information released today by W. H. Covington, in charge of county performance work. As fast as farms are mapped and crop acreages determined, individual farm notices are being mailed opera tors. Farm operators, therefore, should refrain from making special trips to the County Office to learn of their measurements. All operators receiving notices of overplanting should, however, follow the instruc tions of their notices and call at the County Office immediately. In an effort to speed up work in the field and to hold field and general performance costs to a minimum it is extremely important that farm op erators cooperate fully with their lo cal performance reporters. All per sonnel selected by The Newberry County Agricultural Conservation Committee to serve as performance reporters and supervisors, under the 1941 Farm Program, are now at work. The men selected, their title, add resses, and the communities to which they have been assigned are: Richard C. Neel, Jr., Rt. 1, Silver- street, County at large, Sr. County Performance Supervisor. David L. Ruff, Rt. 2, Newberry, County at large, County Performance Supervisor. James C. Abrams, Prosperity, Township No. 9, Performance Report er. Roy H. Amick, Prosperity, Town ship No. 9, Performance Reporter. John C. Boozer, Prosperity, Town ship No. 10, Performance Reporter. James D. Brown, Rt. 1, Newberry, Township No. 4, Performance Re porter. James M. Buford, Rt. 3, Newberry, Township No. 1, Performance Report er. William M. Buford, Jr., Rt. 1, Ki- nards, Township No. G, Performance Reporter. (Continued on page six) There is need for many more work ers at the Red Cross rooms. Much cutting out, sewing and knitting must be done in order to finish up our allotment. If the number of workers continues to fall off as it is now doing, this allotment cannot possibly be completed according to schedule. Any worker is welcome at any time, but in order that workers be assured each day, the churches and various other organizations of the city agreed to furnish workers one day out of each week. These as signments were printed in both county papers some time ago. Due to the fact that some ■ churches and other organizations were not repre sented at all last week, however, the committee feels that there is some misunderstanding as to the day as signed them, or as to the urgent need for workers. To correct these impres sions we again print the list of as signments with the plea that you leaders impress upon the members of your organizations the fact the Red Cross is depending on them for that day. List of Assignments Monday—Any volunteers. Tuesday—Baptists and A. P P.’s. Wednesday—Calvin Crozier's and Presbyterians. Thursday—American Legion Aux iliary and Lutherans. Friday—Methodists and Drayton Rutherford Chapter. If each member of these organiza tions would do a small share of the work it would not be hard on any body, but the few faithful ones who have been carrying the greater part of the burden, are becoming discour aged at the failure of these groups to live up to their promises. The committee, therefore, makes an ur gent appeal to you leaders of the var ious churches especially, as practi cally everyone belongs to a church, that you check up on your day and see that as many as four, at least, show up at the Red Cross room for work that day. HAS APPENDECTOMY L. E. Werts of Chappells entered the Greenwood Hospital Monday where he underwent an operation for appendicitis. The friends of D. J. Williams*will be glad to know that he has return ed to his home on Mayer avenue from the State Park hospital in Columbia, fully recovered. ORANGEBURG AND BAMBERG WATERS ARE REOPENED Columbia, June 24.—Orangeburg and Bamberg county streams were reopened for fishing this week and Sumter county streams will be re opened tomorrow, the state game de partment announced today. Low wa ter caused by the drought forced the closed seasons. “THERE’S MAGIC IN MUSIC” AT RITZ THEATRE The story of the taming of a young burlesque queen with a glorious voice, and her reformation from red-headed, hard-boiled spitfire to a well-manner ed young lady with a future in opera will be on view when Paramount’s new comedy, “There’s Magic in Mu sic,” featuring Allan Jones, Susan na Foster, Margaret Lindsay, and Lynne Overman shows Thursday' and Friday, June 26 and 27 at the Ritz Theatre.

While several operatic numbers are presented in the film, they are mod ernized and streamlined versions of the originals. In addition, the pure- swing enthusiasts haven’t been over looked, for there’s music for them also. IMPORTANT!

Washington, Jw>e 24.—President Roosevelt tonight? opened wide the door to American^youth to enlist or become officers iff British fighting forces and endorsed Great Britain’s appeal for 15,000> to 30,000 Ameri can volunteer as Civilian technicians. Any American fey, who wants to go to Canada an« enlist in British forces can do so l&ally, provided he does not take the/oath of allegiance to the king of England, President Roosevelt said. I He asserted it would not be in violation of the neu trality act. At the same time, when asked if an American who 1 enlisted in the British forces would be exempted from the selective service act in this country, Mr. Roojievelt said he did not know. Mr. Roosevelt said he was very much in favor of encouraging the drive for technicians and mechanics to go to England to serve along side American doctors and nurses al ready there. Britain needs this type of add, he saidl, as well as doctors and nurses who have responded in fine num bers. Questioned whether it would not be a violation of the neutrality law for American civilians to go into the war zone, the chief executive replied in the negative. He cited that the British appeal provided that mech anics and technicians needecr to handle new airplane detecting de vices in England would be returned to the United States if they are needed here. Mr. Roosevelt was also unabfe to say whether American technicians and mechanics, who volunteered for British service, would be exempted from the draft here. This question apparently is to be answered later. He observed, how ever, that anyone"'^not convmitteed otherwise, could go. The president said that Ameri cans also could enlist for service with Chinese forces as long as they were not yecruited in this country and did not swear oath of allegiance to the Chinese government. Mr. Roosevelt stressed that the British are recruiting soldiers with out recruiting them to take the oath of allegiance to the king and that Americans would not lose their Am erican citizenship by enlisting in Canada. Cotton Is Gainer In Apparel Marts Moves Ahead of Rayon In Men’s Hose, Jumps 46 Per Cent in Fabric Gloves New York City.—Cotton use in two major clothing fields, men’s socks and fabric knit gloves, has shown steady and subsbar. : e T gains during the past five years, whereas use of rayon has steadily declined, Dean Hill, president of the Durene Asso ciation of America, told the National Cotton Council today. Mr. Hill said that the sharpest Uptrend in cotton use in men’s hos iery and gloves has taken place in the last two years. A correspond ing sharp decrease in rayon use was reflected during the same period. In 1935 cotton was used in the manufacture of 14,325 thousand doz en pairs of men’s socks and rayon in 16,807 thousand dozen pairs. In 1940 this trend was reversed to the point where cotton was used in 16,299 thousand dozen pairs and rayon in only 12,792 thousand dozen pairs. During the five year period cotton use increased by 14 per cent and rayon use in men’s hosiery decreas ed by 24 per cent. Manufacturers of cotton fabric knit gloves showed ,^n output of EflK),321 dozen pairs in 1940 against 411,221 dozen pairs in 1939. During the same period the output of rayon gloves decreased from 2,042,802 to 1,964,515 dozen pairs. Cotton’s gain was 46 per cent with rayon’s loss amounting to five per cent. During the first three months of 1941 this trend continued unabated, with cot ton showing a gain of 87 per cent over the corresponding loss of 13 per cent. These figures do not include work gloves, another substantial outlet for cotton in the glove field. Miss Cornelia Mayer is visiting Mrs. W. H. Parham in Latta, where she will attend this evening the wed ding of Caroline Mayes Parham to Osborne Hardwick Rhodes. Among the auto dealers attending the State Auto Association meeting held in Myrtle Beach the first of the week was Bill Smith. The USO Drive for funds to oper ate army recreation clubs through out the nation has now actually be gun in Newberry, and all patriotic citizens are readly to cooperate in this effort to make life more pleasant for our young men in army service. A “hopping off” meeting was held Tuesday afternoon in the Chamber of Commerce offices, at which time prospect cards and quotas were given to the various teams handling the ac tual soliciting. The teams were in structed to begin work immediately, and all funds are expected to be in some time this week. Newberry’s three mill viUages are expected to take an active part in the drive and separate committees have been set up in each. For the Newberry Mill village, Ernest Layton and Frank Jones are in charge. A. J. Beckham is handling the organization for the Mollohon Mill Village, and Roy Elam represents the Oakland Mill Village. The ladies of the American Legion Auxiliary have volunteered to work Newberry’s residence section, while various busi ness men are covering the business section. Team workers in the business section are as follows: E. B. Purcell, L. C. Graham, Don Rook, Jim John son, Jake Wise, Hal Kohi^ P. B. Ez ell, Ellisor Adams, Elmer Srealy, W. T. Daniel, E. L. Scott, Roland Felk- er, Dick Baker, J. N. Beard, Joe Vi- godsky, Joe Williams, T. Roy Sum mer, Sr„ Dick Mims, O. M. Cobb, Eldon Jones, I. Schissell, James Hutchinson, C. I. Youmans, Derrill Smith, Dudley French, Gordon Black, well, Pete Coleman, Bob Bruner, Ralph Boker, Felix Green, T. L. Hicks, M. O. Summer. Newberry’s quota is only $900, and it is felt by all concerned: that con tributions here will far exceed this figure. Expansion of army posts and camps has been so rapid through out America during the last year that nearby cities and towns have not found it possible to provide amuse ments sufficient to take care of the great increase in population. Your friend, son, or brother may be one of the boys in some distant town who ‘dress up” for an afternoon or even ing from camp—but find that there is nothing to db but hang around a street corner and watch the traffic go by. If these men had a properly supervised club with reading matter games, religious services, and other entertainment, their lives would be made much more pleasant and we will have done a great service to the na tion by assisting in the effort to serve them in this way. BIBLE SCHOOL BEST The Bible school at Aveleigh is de cidedly the best ever held in the church. The attendance has far ex ceeded all expectations from the first day, there being about 22 more than last year when the attendance was 99 per cent of all eligible children of the church. Including the school leaders, 62 were present on Tuesday of this week, which was the rainest day of the school. The teaching staff is made up of Miss Anne Denny (director), Mrs. E. B. Purcell, Mrs. C. A. Calcote, Mrs. Leon Nichols, Mrs. J. D. French, Miss Juanita Swindler, Mrs. S. E. Denton (play ground activities), Miss Mary Lewie, Miss Annie Abrams, Mrs. Carter Ab rams and Rev. C. A. Calcote. Mrs. Hugh Seim, Mrs. W. S. Chap man and Miss Fannie McCaughrin serve refreshments each day. Two and one-half hours each day are consumed in Bible memory work drill, Catechism instruction, Bible teaching, song drill, hand work and playgrond activities. The school will close this week end after 1 1-2 week’s work. Certificates will be awarded to all who have completed the work and have not missed a single day of the school. ST. PHILIPS The farmers in the community are very busy now after the rains, and the women have also been busy plant ing the gardens. There has been plenty of wheat in this section, and there is a fine prospect for com. Tuesday a week will be the first day in July, which, I think, is the finest month in the year. July 15 will be 41 years that I have been writing for the newspapers. It has beer, a pleasure to me, and I am glad that the people enjoy my letters.

WEEVILS EMERGING IN THREATENING NUMBERS Florence, May 24.—Records of federal entomoligists at the Pee Dee Experiment Station here show a very heavy emergence of boll weev ils this spring as compared wiflh similar periods in previous years, E. E. Hall, Superintendent of the sta tion, announced here today. Following the severe winter of 1939-40 only 16 weevils emerged during May and June from a total of 30,000 weevils caged in the fall of 1939, the entomologists report. This year during the first 16 days of May, 1476 weevils have emerged from a total of 27,500 caged in the fall of 1940. The emergence for the first 16 .days of May for the past five years is as follows: Year Number Number Caged Emerged 1941 27,500 1,576 1940 30,000 12 1939 35,000 396 1938 34,500 167 1937 30,000 666 “Farmers should prepared now to make a persistent fight to control the weevil, t s damage will likely be ex tremely heavy if weather conditions in June and July favor weevil acti vity”, Mr. Hall concludes.

The Sun Strives To Serve The Whole People $1.00 PER YEAR DOWN MEMORY LANE 30 YEARS AGO The coming of Col. William Jen nings Bryan bo Newberry was an event, in the- history of the city Which will be long remembered. Col. Bry an is one of the greatest thinkers and one of the leading citizens of the world. His lecture on “The Prince of Peace” is a magnificant presenta tion of the greatest *heme, and Col. Bryan’s power as a public speaker, ripened and grown fuller with the passing years, draw his hearers close to him and lend an irresistable force to the great truths which he utters. Those Newberrians who had met and heard Col. Bryan before ap preciated the opportunity of meeting and hearing him again, and those who met him for the first time on Wednesday enjoyed a great privilege. Col. Bryan is a great man, and he would have made a great president. A destructive hail and wind storm played havoc Sunday afternoon at about five o’clock in No. 2 (Caldwell) township, ruining the crops of sev eral farmers and badly damaging those of others. The farm of Mr. O. H. Lane wps where the greatest ruin was wrought. The cotton was Completely riddled and the corn was literally shredded. Large peaches and other fruits were stripped from the tees. Mr. Lane’s gin house was blown down and a bay window of his residence was broken. The hull stones were as large as guinea eggs. The terraces 1 on Mr. Lane’s planta tion were broken and other damage to the place was done. Dr. W. C. Brown, Mr. W. P. Lominick, and Mr. J. S. Ruff also were treated m a somewhat similar manner An oak tree was uprooted in Mr. Ruff’s ■yard. A strange this is, that one year ago, lacking only about fifteen days, a destructive hail storm visited the exact locality and ruined the crops. At the regular meeting the Bergell Tribe No. 24 I. O. R. M„ held last Thursday the following officers were elected: T. B. Kibler, Phopher< J. H. Baxter, Sachem; J. E. Franklin, Sen ior Sagamore; Ira- M. Sligh, Junior Sagamore.
