Every Week More People Read The Sun VOLUME 4; NO. 46 The Rising Sun—1856-1860 NEWBERRY, S. C. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1941 PUBLISHED WEEKLY $1.00 PER YEAR OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE PLEASE, BOSS The president, that is, FDR, has shown many times his preference for the aristocracy. The president does n’t like the smell of we lowbrows. Johnston exudes the odor of the spin dle, tKe looper and the loom but when Maybanik sweeps into the presidential presence bhrere is a scent of 18th cen tury drawing rooms, old lace and lav ender, and finely-gowned women with piled up hair whirling about the dance floor with gentlemen in tight britches and side bums. When FDR gets a whiff of this he is completely disarm ed and shells out power dams like all thunder. Now, a little thing like a few mil lions to help our poor farmers ought to be arranged between these two ar istocratic gentlemen without the least hitch. The aristocrats look down on us low bromis but they love us— there wouldn’t be aristocrats if there were no low-brows. So, as I say, they love us, bad smelling as we are, and if wo send Burnet up there they will help u®. Someday we ill-smelling folk will come into our own. We will have us a president who smells of the good earth, one who will open the portals of the White House as a bam door and bid us enter, smell and all. We’ll rule the earth, we common people, before time shall have passed, but just now we are on the outside and must pe* our crumbs from the table of the aristocracy. The vote Tuesday shows we common people realize the situation and ac cept it for what it is—we are sen sible if not sweet. Now, Burnet, we are going to do our best to send you to Washington, on the 16th and your chances are good. When you take office, yea, even the day after you are elected, go to Wash ington. and. tell your friend FDR that our farmers are in a most hell of a fix—tell him there are plenty-of them who won’t pick a boll of cotton; that, though they are common people, they have bellies, even as aristocrats, and they like to eat. Tell him, Burnet, that a lot of little South Carolina boys are going to feel, the blast of wintry winds on their j tails thru tattered and worn-out i britches unless he helps us. They | are common little boys of course and | smell perhaps even worse than their elders but their little tails are sensi-1 tive to cold, even as yours and FDR’s. In short, Burnet, go on up there and start pitching. Forget for the nonce power dams and such but re-1 member that people here in the state i we believe you love are going to suf- ! fer if help does not come to them. You have proclaimed your interest in the farmer. We are going to take you at your word and vote for you. But remember Mr. Senator, if you fall down on us we’ll give you the devil next summer. Easterlin Wants More For Aged of The State Easterlin Appears Before Legislative Committee at Columbia A request for an additional million dollar appropriation was laid before a committee to investigate needs for the aged', blind and dependent chil dren Wednesday morning at Colum bia. F. M. Easterlin of Spartanburg, state president of the old-age pension association, asked for the appropria- tion, suggesting as a means of reve nue at 10 per cent cut in the presen c appropriations of all existing depart ments of state government. Excluded from this plan would be hospitaliza tion costs and salaries set by consti tutional limitation. Mr. Easterlin, appearing before the committee at 10 a. m. yesterday, said that if the money was raised, the federal government would match it with another million. Under the plan of the organization, no additional taxes would be imposed on the people but over a million dol lars realized from the cut in other de partments, Mr. Easterlin said. cident this week. Billy, now the ful- fledged devil in The Sun sanctum wanted a quarter Tuesday to, to quote him “get his ears lowered”. “Where the devil is that dollar I gave you Saturday,” quoth I. “Oh, that dollar. Well, you know Dad a dollar don’t last long.” I dont know what he did' with the dollar in two day’s time. I do know that he had money and could have bought candy if he had wanted ft. For that I am, thankful. I don’t want him to be a Socialist! FARMERS OPINION OF FARMERS Talking with a farmer Saturday who doubted if the tenant farmer de served any help. He isn’t worth a cuss anyway, according to this far mer who held that if given more he would be much sorrier. That is without doubt true in many instances, but I cannot help but look beyond the sorry iparent to the child. Nature, in due course, will rid the earth of the lazy and incompetent, but we have a duty to their children if we are ever to raise the standard of citi zenship. We cannot allow poverty to turn his children into thieves and whores. I say we cannot allow it. Better put would be to say that we cannot continue to allow it, as my in formation is that some Newberry county girls are being picked up by a strumpet and hauled to Fort Jackson weekly. TUESDAY’S VOTE Those who like to analyze election returns can find some interesting figures in Tuesday’s election. For in stance, why should Chesterfield coun ty vote for Johnston almost two to one when he didn’t anything like ap proach that figure elsewhere in the state, not even in his native county nor in his adopted county? Chester field is rural almost entirely, but there are a number of rural counties in the state. Whry did he not carry Lee, for instance, by the same ma jority, if we assume the rural vote to be partial to Johnston? Again, why did he carry mill boxes in Newberry and Laurens, and Lan caster and Chester, by large mapori- tdes, and lose by equally large maj orities mill boxes nearer his home? Further noodle-scratching might be employed in doping out why Lit tle Mountain voted so lustily for Bry son when no other precinct in the county did'. And those 16 or 18 votes he got in traditionally wet Peak. Has Peak climbed on the wagon ? Votes in the counties noted in the dlaily and weekly press present some strange contrasts in many precincts. Certainly the voters followed no pattern in this election. Maybe it’s the weather, or the war, or even the New Deal! ANTIDOTE FOR SOCIALISM I am a socialist at heart. I was reared as poor as any kid ever was and I’m still mad about it, and I al ways will be. I have a couple of dol lars now, but that don't compensate for the saliva that trickled down my throat as a kid when I watched other kids in the town drug store eating ice cream and store candy while I sucked pensively at a dirty thumb. Nothing I have now, or will ever have, will repay me for having to wear Jeans britches while other boys wore Knickerbockers with room in them to put their hands while mine hardly covered all that should be covered. Fame, nor riches, nor any other crea ture will ever erase from my mind the times I crammed my feet under the chair when I went out for a lit tle sparking to keep my girl from glaring at my brass-tipped shoes. So much as a prelude to an in- BANK CASE SETTLED A compromise has been reached between Eugene S. Blease, repre senting the stockholders of the de funct Exchange bank and the coun ty legislative delegation, affecting the office building known as the Ex change bank building. Details of the compromise could not be readily learned but the building now belongs, lock, stock and barrel to Newberry county. Some 20-odd thousands of dollars had accumulated from rents since the matter has been in litiga tion. This large amount accumulated on account of not being able to make much needed repairs on the building, the rents being held in escrow. The case arose when the county bought the building in for secured deposits in the Exchange bank. Stockholders retained Judge Blease to contest the sale on grounds that officers of the bank acted illegally when they pledg ed the structure for county deposits without first obtaining the consent of the bank directorate. Rents hereto fore collected by the treasurer's of fice will in the future be collected by Frank Sanders, clerk of the county board of commissioners. If you have about $55,000 ini loose change around and need a good building, you can get up a deal with the county delegation. The building fully rented would yield about $8,000 per annum. Taxes should not be over $1,500, conse quently it is a nice investment for some plutocrat like Jimmie Johnson. Boys Are Well Fed In Uncle Sam’s Army Much has been made in these stren uous times of the new weapons of de fense and offense. There has been little written about one of the hard est, most important, and most fascin ating jobs in this defense effort of ours. Few words of praise have been said of the task of clothing and feeding the men, furnishing transportation, gaso line and routings for the army—the “house-keeping” of our all-out effort. This job is that of the Quartermaa. ter Corps of the Army. In the current maneuvers in Louis iana between the Second and Third Armies, the Quartermaster of the Fourth Corps Area has the gigantic duty of supplying the 303,000 men of the Third Army with subsitenee, clothing, and the gasoline needed for the mechanized Army. The amounts of food that will be consumed in these maneuvers is stu pendous. Enough coffee will be drunk to float at 20,000 ton ship. A freight train two and one-half miles long would be necessary to carry the 6,- 696,300 pounds of beef the boys will eat. If all the frankfurters to be con sumed were laid end to end, they would reach from Norfolk, Va., to New Orleans and have enough left over to encircle both cities. One hundred and six.,/ three thous- i and hogs will lay down their lives for I Uncle Sam to keep the men of the | Third Army supplied with hog for the coming maneuvers. The rest of | the animal will be utilized, in sausage, hot-dogs, salt pork, and the like. It would take a champion, egg-a- day hen 100,000 years to lay enough eggs to supply the boys with break fasts. Quantities of some of the items of food to be consumed by the Third Army on maneuvers are astronomical: Potatoes, 8,756,700 pounds. Oranges, 13,680. Evaporated milk, 2,478,540 14 1-2 oz. cans. Fresh eggs, 2,498,991 dozen. Coffee, 2,060,400 pounds. Butter, 1,624,080 pounds. Bread, 11,271,600 pounds. Apples, 10,852,550. Sugar, 2,402,790 pounds. In fact, half the people in United States could sit down make a meal of what the Third Army will consume in the sixty days of the maneuvers. The job done by the Quartermaster is the closest and at the same time the least conspicuous to the average sol dier. As one old-timer aptly put it: “Withini three hours after a recruit is sworn in, the Quartermaster pro vides his first meal; within ten hours, his first army bed; within twenty-four hours, his first transportation, and within three days, his first uniform. Thereafter, whenever he serves, from the fogs of Newfoundland to Zam boanga’s vales, the Quartermaster meets his every demand. When his left sleeve is like a barber pole with ten enlistment stripes won under sun and winter blasts and he turns from his last parade to retirement, the Quartermaster moves him family home. After the gray-headed citi zen soldier has answered his last roll call, the Quartermaster provides a military funeral with burial in a na tional cemetery, a soldier’s head- stone.and keeps his grave green for ever after." With the enormity of the task the Quartermaster will do in the coming maneuvers let’s not forget, when the story of the maneuvers is being told, that the backbone of the Army is the Quartermaster Corps. Without food a soldier can’t fight and without gaso line a tank can’t run. The man who does these jobs is the Quartermaster. MAYBANK LEADS IN THIS COUNTY About the only spirit shown in the primary here Tuesday, If indeed that could be called a display of spirit, oc- cured when the Blast Riverside box cast all its 10 votes for Maybank. In terest was at a low ebb. In at least one instance the manager of a town box hailed a few passing voters and asked them to come in and vote but they declined the invitation. Newberry county mills remained loyal to Johnston, giving him 460 against 296 for both his opponents Mollohon went overwhelmingly for the former governor, giving him 218 votes against 53 for Maybank and 1 for Bryson. Maybank ran well in the rural part of the county, and easily carried the up-town boxes. A second primary will be necessary to nominate and it will be held Tues day, September 16th. The same man. agers will act in so far as possible. NATION-WIDE UNASSEMBLED EXAMINATION TO BE HELD the and Circulars have been received in the State announcing nation-wide unas sembled examinations tio secure per sons for higher social Work positions in the Indiana State Department of Public Welfare. The announcement also states that Indiana residence re quirements a re waived, but that pref erence will be given to residents of the state. “Unassembled” examinations take into account only the applicant’s edu cation, experience, and references, without written or oral teats, an<f are usually given when the need for ad ditional employees is immediate. Salaries offered in the Indiana De partment of Public Welfare for the positions advertised range from $150 to $200 per month, as against $100 to $120 for the same positions in South Carolina. Rev. J.

SECOND PRIMARY SEPTEMBER 16TH Columbia, Sept. 2.—Governor Bur net R. Maybank stepped out in front of his two opponents with a big lead in today’s special Democratic sena torial primary, but lacked a few thousand votes in the latest returns of having the majority necessary to give him the nomination. •With 1,352 of the state’s 1,523 pre cincts tabulated, the 42-year-old Charleston business man had 56,795 votes. He was more than 18,000 votes ahead of former Governor OUn D. Johnston, Spartanburg lawyer, who had 38,392. Representative Joseph R. Bryson, Greenville lawyer, was far back of the leaders with 29,826. Boxes Widely Scattered The 171 unreported precincts were widely scattered throughout the state, and it was, therefore, impos sible to speculate upon their probable bearing upon the final standing. The second primary, which ap parently is necessary, will be held two weeks from today, and the election, purely perfunctory in this almost solidly democratic state, Sptember 30. The winner, who will be the fourth man to occupy the jaat this year, will, take office about October 15. He will I replace Senator Roger C. Peace, Greenville publisher, now serving by i appointment of Governor Maybank, I and serve until January, 1943. Peace was named to succeed Sen ator Alva M. Lumpkin, who died shortly after Maybank had appointed him to the office vacated by Associate Justice Jaimes F- Byrnes upon his appointment to the U. S. supreme court two months ago.

Jolly Street lost a heart-breaking game to Prosperity Saturday, 5-4, while Batesburg trimmed Chapin to the tune of 12 - 0. Saturday’s game with Batesburg, to be played on the Jolly Street diamond will begin at 3:00 p. m. (DST). Batesburg needs only one victory to cop the second half of the league. In the Jolly Street lineup you will see plenty of power in Sam Kinard, T. Shealy, Fox Boozer, Jim' Boozer, Cor ley, Auyoub and others, in little Mel George, Jolly Street short stop, one of the prettiest infields that wore a uniform in the Dutch Fork League in the last five games. George handed 53 charuches perfect. Some were very difficult ones. Batesburg will bring a hustling ball club. The officials at Jolly Street are asking a small admission price of 5c, 10c and 15c. though he piled up big votes in many u*-* of the more populous upstate coun- KENDALL MILLS LUTHERAN *'«« and in some of them. Johnston, 45-year -old native of Artdenson, but for many years a resi dent of Spartanburg, was strongest in the Piedmont and upper counties, j Bryson, 48, who like Johnston', is a former textile worker, found bis, chief support in his congressianal I district, tihe Fourth. The vote was light as had been gen- j orally predicted. For instance, Char- ( leston cast a total of less than 8,500 votes as compared with around 24,-' 000 in gubernatorial primary in which Maybank defeated Wyndbam M. Man. ning of .Sumter. Prediction bad been made that the vote might reach 150,000. More than 350,000 persons were eligible to vote. One Box Not Called For In at least one instance interest was so low, that the ballot box was not sent our from the county seat. That was reported in Fairfield. The primary climaxed a speaking campaign in which the three candi dates spoke once in each of the state’s 14 judicial circuits instead of in each of the 46 county seats, a custom Ben Tillman’s time. The campaign itinerary was cut short because of limited amount of thne allowed by law from Byrnes’ resignation to governor’s calling of general election. The statute said the general election must be called within 90 days after vacancy occurs. When the primary election was decid ed upon, there was only a short time in which to hold it before the general election, which was set for Septem ber 30. This was almost the last date it can be held within law.

He was a son. of the late Pear, son M. Hawkins and Mrs. Lucinda Schumpert Hawkins of Newberry. Mr. Hawkins has been a lifelong resident of Newberry county. He was connected with Sdhumpert Roller mill for many years and at the thne of hie death held a position with the Far mers OH mill. He was a member of the Ebenezer Methodist church having joined when he was a boy. He was a steward in the church and had been for many years Funeral services were held Thurs day at 12 o’clock from Ebenezer church with the Rev. C. W. Brock- well in charge assisted by the Rev. J. B.

This road, if built as he is now building it all the way to Prosperity, will be a beautiful boulevard connecting the two towns, and it is of vital import ance that arrangements should be made to relocate the road from the Boyd crossing to Mr. J. B. Fellers’ place, about a mile this side of Pros perity. It can be relocated so as to avoid all railroad crossings except that of the Southern in the city limits of Prosperity, and, as we see it, it would almost be criminal to build such a road without avoiding these grade crossings. We have called attention to this several times, and make this last appeal to the people along the road as well as the people of New berry and Prosperity before the road is built. Mr. B. B. Leitzsey came home from Charleston on Saturday morning to spend Sunday at his home in this county. Mr. Leitzsey’s many friends here have been very much interested in his graphic descriptions of the ter rific hurricane which swept Charles ton on Sunday night, August 27, an Mr. Leitzsey did not tire in satisfying their initerest. Messrs. Tom, Marion, and Will Wicker, of Newberry, who were in Charleston the night of the storm, came home and told that Mr Leitzsey sang hymns while the wind was at its height. Mr. Leitzsey says that not only is this true, but that he led in the singing, and all the others in the house joined' in heartily, and then each for himself offered as fer vent and sincere prayers as they ever offered in their lives. There were about 100 bales of cot ton sold on the market at Newberry on Saturday. Owing to the weather, picking and ginning have not been as rapid as it would be. The prevailing price on Monday, though there was very little cotton on the market, was 11 3-4. Our Pomaria correspondent says the merchants at Pomaria are paying 12 cents for cotton, and that they have decided that the Pomaria market shall be as high as any other market, if not higher. That is the spirit that will keep that market up, and if it is kept up, the cotton will go to it. Leading the day’s selling of Jersey eiuo'i uieajg Abq Aepuojy ojoq 3[V}bo consigned to the sale by Wheeler Brothers of Saluda, brought $350. The second best animal brought $340 and was consigned by Oallie Boyd Parr of Newberry. Both were bought by W. M. Swindler of Columbia. Dr. A. H. Meredith of Augusta, Ga. was the largest buyer, having purch ased 13 head for a total of $2,600. Wheeler Brothers of Saluda sold the highest number, 12, for a total of $2,650. Callie Boyd Parr sold the second largest number, 9, bringing him $2,030. Total sales of the day were 49 animals for $8,917.50. Representatives of the American Jersey Cattle club said the sale yes terday brought a higher average price than any in the past ten years.
