Q"
Reinforcemenft
For America
• The most rapidly growing group of new in
i’ -trial uses for cotton is that in which cotton
loses its original identity to find a new life in
combination with some other raw material.
The classical illustration is the ruhher in
dustry, where cotton finds almost illimitahle
uses in products ranging all the way from auto
mobile tires to lastex varn. But now crowding
this great industrv in its capacity to use cotton
are such new industries as synthetic resins,
which use cotton not only as a reinforcement for
molded and laminated products, hut also in
coatings and enamelings. On the market today
are even such incredible new products as cotton
faced plywood wall panels, and cotton-concrete
roofing shingles.
To those who have known the cotton indus
try long and well, however, this ability of cotton
to reinforce oilier industrial products is not too
strange. For ir» a very real sense the cotton in
dustry has always been the reinforcement, base,
and support of other industries in the Cotton
Belt and in America. Cotton is America’s great
industrial crop, alone of all crops capable of
giving us clothing, food, and shelter in all their
refinements.
When we make good use of cotton we build
our future.

SENATE APPROVES FREEZING
Act Would Prevent Sale of Loan
Staple During the Present
Europea,n War
Washington, July 29.—A patch-
work bill intended to give cotton and
wheat farmers higher prices for their
crops this year won senate approval
late today after more than five hours
of wrangling and voting.
A major provision of the hotly de
bated measure, which now goes to the
house, would prevent the government
from marketing Ks loan stocks of 6,-
000 bales of cotton and nearly 300,-
000,000 bushels of wheat during the
present European war.
The loan stocks were acquired by
the government- as a result of its
price-supporting loans to farmers.
Senators from the cotton and wheat
belts explained that the possibility
that the government might market its
stocks tended to depress market prices
received for new crops. They said
freezing these stocks, or keeping them
from normal market and trade chan
nels, would allow farmers to enjoy
higher prices as a result of expand
ing needs of the defense and British-
aid programs.

GOVERNOR HAD TROUBLE
(Continued from page one)
same phrase if confronted with his
change (considered absolutely certain
here), from Johnston to Maybank. In
1939, of course, it was a matter of
Jonston versus Senator Smith, who
had been feuding with Mr. Roosevelt.
The current situation manifestly is
quite different. It embraces no feud
involving the president.
It is not expected that the presi
dent will openly endorse Maybank,
but unless Columbia is badly fooled,
Mr. Roosevelt in for him.
Whether the president himself
helped the governor come to his
hard-earned decision to run has not
been hinted, but others high in au
thority in Washington are said to
have given some important pushes to
the governor in that direction. |
The clear indication that Washing
ton wants the governor elected has in
no wise, apparently, helped the guess-
ers here who would like right now to
pick the winner.
The situation is unusual and be
clouded.
There are two native sons of the
Piedmont in the contest, both con
sidered formidable in their own area,
which is an area where voters are
more abundant than in any other sec
tion of the state.
There is the unusual situation of
a governor entering the contest with
his tenure as governor having al
most a year and a half to go. |
The campaign will be relatively
short.
Men here believe Johnston and
Joseph R. Bryson are going to divide
between themselves most of the cot
ton mill vote, particularly in Green
ville and Spartanburg. They note
that while the govenor is believed to
have gained friends in that area
since he became governor, this might
be offset by the two-way bid by the
native sons—Johnston and Bryson.
Maybank was elected governor
chiefly on the vote he received in the
lower section of the state, and even
Maybank men concede he may nave
lost ground in that section as a res
ult of this and that battle with lower
state politicians.
But others picture a second race
between Maybank and Johnston <hat
would see even folk who may have
fallen out with Maybank voting for
him rather than for Johnston. Some
here believe that an important point
unless in the first race Representa
tive Butler B. Hare should come in
for a heavy and dangerous share of a
type of vote Maybank might other
wise' receive.
It is a fact that there is consider
able talk about Hare. Although on
the surface he is as much a New
Dealer as the others in the contest,
it seems that Hare is well liked by
conseratives and “liberals” alike. In
the various changes of districts in
the western section of the state, Hare
served the entire western fringe of
the state in the national house of re
presentatives, from the mountains to
the seacoast and has a large follow
ing there.
The Maybank men will count heav
ily on the large vote of federal work
ers, receivers of federal benefits and
officeholders, and that may weigh
heavily in the governor’s favor.
CAMDEN FOLK GRACIOUS
(Continued Jrom page one)
den gave the English, too, was warm
but not of the kind of intensity aff-
forded by Red Coats in 1776. Probably
some of the Englishmen have now
seen Camden’s famous tree which was
planted by General Lafayette when
he was on these shores to aid the
Colonists in their fight for freedom.
And, they say, too, the instructors of
the R. A. F. lads are living now In
Deare Place where George Washing
ton and Lafayette stopped on their
visit to Camden back in Revolutionary
days.
The good people of Camden took the
Britishers to their hearts at once and
showed them some of that good old
Southern hospitality of which they
had heard. Camden has been able to
retain a great deal of the charm of
the Old South .and to train in such a
place has been doubly educational to
the pilots.
In Camden churches and homes, the
boys from across the water found
friends.
“I couldn’t understand everything
they said,” confessed the host to a
couple of the boys, “and when I said
‘huh’ it gave them a big laugh. I no
ticed that they used very little sugar
in their tea—said it was sweet
enough. They’re used to conserving
sugar, you know’.
Woodward Field at Camden where
is located the air training center
started flight training for the Unit
ed States air corps in March and
graduated its first class in May. This
group consisted largely of American
youths from New England. The sec
ond class of American students grad
uated July 14. The third class consists
of sixty British boys and they are be
ing followed every five weeks by
sixty-six more trainees from the Unit
ed Kingdom. There were 556 United
Kingdom students who reported for
training in the southeast air corps
training place for flights, it’s “Mr.
So-And-So, have you soloed. Ok,
you’re off in five minutes”. And a
boyish face takes on a bit of a grin
and another youth is off to a new ad
venture.
