LIKED ARTICLE ON FARM CONDITIONS Mr. Armfield: Allow me to commend you on your timely article in your last issue, con cerning the seriousness of the farm situation) in this area. Being in con stant contact with those seeking work in this county, I am amazed at the number of farmers hunting ®*her work and who state they will not make enough to pay their fertilizer bills this year. Our farmers need all the aid and encouragement they can get. A man has to have plenty of “what it takes” to turn around and make plans for another crop after such a failure as some are experiencing this year. Sudie C. Wicker. Threatened Strike At Mollohon Mill Settled A threatened strike was settled here Monday between employes and the management of Mollohon cotton mills. Employes of the mill in a union gathering some two weeks ago voted to present certain demands to the mill management. These includ ed a 25 per cent raise, cessation of Saturday work and a check in the speed of certain machines. The de mands were made by the loom fixers comprising a relatively small major ity of the workers but a stopage in this department would have closed the mill.

Terms of the Monday settlement are not known, but it is said that a majority of the workers did not fav or a strike. ATTEND SHOWING OF NEW OLDSMOBILE W. H. Davis of the W. H.

Langford, basing our recommendation upon the fact that he and his ancestors for two generations have been native- born and resident citizens of our Town and City of Newberry, S. C., that he is honest, trustworthy, sober, dean, economical, and) progressive, and also that he is known to be a capable and successful business man. Advt. Other Friends. THE CAPITAL SCENE BY DAN T. HENDERSON Columbia, Oct. 3.—(PNS)—When Senator Burnet Rhett Maybank walks down the aisle of the United States senate to take his seat as a member of the highest legislative body in this country he will, as has been 1 pointed out, be breaking a fifty year prece dent of a Charleston aristocrat re presenting South Carolina in that body. It will also be a record-breaking performance for the man that will accompany him to the rostrum to in troduce the Charleston aristocrat to that august body. That man will be the dean of the senate. South Caro lina’s “Cotton Ed” Smith, who will be introducing his eighth colleague. (Senator Benjamin Rian Tillman was serving when Smith was elected—bis ninth fellow South Carolinian.) Upon the death of Senator Till man, Governor Richard I. Manning appointed Christie Bemet of Colum bia to the senate. Senator Pollock of Oheraw was then elected for the short term. The third' man to follow Smith t* the desk of the senate was Senator Nat Dial of Laurens. In 1924, Cole Blease, stiH a dangerous mam in South Carolina politics, was elected. James F. Byrnes was the next sena tor. When Justice Byrnes was elevated to the United States supreme court last summer the late Alva Lumpkin took the job. The seventh senator and now serving is Roger C. Peace, Greenville publisher. So when Senator Maybank takes the oath, South Carolina will have two precedent-breaking senators in Washington. GENERAL ASSEMBLY It is a bit early to start talking about the next session of the Gen eral Assembly that convenes in Jan uary but already there is a lot of gossip drifting around the State House on the coming session. From all reports DhS* session will be short but, with its shar e of stormy sessions. To quote one re presentative, “this will go down as the smartest session in the history of our state . . .” Looming as the two toughest bat tles before the members are bills providing for biennial sessions of the assembly and state owned liquor stores. Another matter that will probably reach the floor that will be a thorn to many will be the reap portion men t of the house. When this is complete Barnwell county will come out with one less representa tive. Barnwell has two now, both in influential spots—Sol Blatt as speak er of the house and Winchester Smith as chairman of the Way® and Means committee. MAYBANK It appears certain now that Gov ernor Maybank, who was officially named South Carolina’s junior sena tor last Tuesday, will not leave his Columbia office until after Presktent Rooeeveflt visits the state. He is not expected to announce his Wash ington office force until a few days before he leaves for the nation’s capital. QUIZ A letter from a Newberry reader brings up ap interesting question that many are asking now. “In the event that anything would happen to the Lieutenant-Governor after he has become the state’s chief execu tive who would become governor?” The state constitution provides that in such a case the President Pro Tem of the senate would become governor. That man is now Senator Richard Jefferies of Walterboro. NOT IN DEFENSE We print the following not in de fense of Barnwell county who now has in a poker player’s language, “locks on the state,” but to show that that little county has always been the home of prominent state leaders. In our wanderings around the State House we stopped to read’ a tab let we have been seeing for years and never stopped to read. It was the Ordinance of Secession passed in the sixties at a convention in Char leston. President of that convention that dissolved South Carolina from the Union was D. F. Jamison of Barnwell. We thought it very ap propriate that near by stood a sta tue of Oconee’s famous son that bat tled for states’ rights some thirty years before, John C. Calhoun. BITS Chief G. R. Richardson, newly ap pointed head of the State Constabul ary, has his office next door to an other Chief Richardson—Chief Game Warden A. A. Richardson . . . Sea born Moss, of Oconee, who was ap pointed Lieutenant of the Constabul ary to succeed Richardson was to take over his new duties around Oct ober 1 ... A tired face seen very often around the State House is all smiles now. A hard battle has been won, a well-earned rest has eased’ Ms Letter Carrier Job Open At Whitmire The United States Civil Service Commission has announced an exami nation to fill the position of rural car rier at WMtmire.

Seen visiting the governor’s office this week was Dr. Grey Macaulay, Columbia city councilman, who still clings to Wal- halla as his native home . . . Gover nor Harley has named John Cauthen, one-time newspaperman, as his exe cutive secretary ... In Columbia re cently—and old friend and South Car olinian, Bill Bradford, now serving as secretary to Senator Peace ... It appears certain that lawyer Donald Russell of Spartanburg will be ap pointed federal judge if he desires to give up his private practice . . . Maybank will be the ninth man to serve South Carolina in the United States senate with senate dean, Cot ton Ed Smith.

DOWN MEMORY LANE 30 YEARS AGO New York, Sept. 23.—The first United States mail ever transported by aeroplane was carried today from the aviation field, on Nassau Boule vard, Long Island to Garden City, a distance of five miles, by Earl L. Ov- ington, in a Bleriot machine. His flight for this purpose was the lead ing feature of the international av iation meet opening today. Ovington took only one bag of mail, held it between his knees, and when he was Over Garden City he dropped it. The bag contained about seventy-five pounds if letters and poet card®. The Reunion of the Red Shins in Columbia calls to mind the days of 1876 and the convention which met in August of that year and nominat ed Hampton. It ha® not been so very long since 1876, and yet it is a gen eration. Looking over the names of the gentlemen who made up the con vention; one is reminded that a large majority of them have passed from the stage of action. All of the State officers nominated by that convention have passed away. It i® not without tile range of pos sibility that we will at some time have a legislature which will provide for a system of permanent road work. It will cost some money to build permanent roads—and the howl will be long as dismal and' blood-curdling. It is not unlikely that the men who put through such a measure would be snowed under in a succeeding elec tion if the election came soon after fhe enactment of the measure. But when the roads were used, and the advantages, in convenience and in dollars and cent®, were realized, the authors of the measure would be heroes, and some of those who Rick ed loudest against spending some money for permanent work would be peodseming loudly how thuy had told the people all the time that perman ent work was what was needed, and while it would take money to do it, it would be the beet investment which the people could make. We shall be glad to see the effort successful to establish in the old court house a rest room for ladies. It is an endorsement of the position taken by the Herald and News some years ago when it was proposed to tear the building down. We sup pose we were just a little ahead of the procession. ST. PHILIPS NEWS The farmers have been busy gath ering their hay and some of them have extra fine hay this year. On last Friday afternoon we re ceived a very hard rain, which was much needed. It seems quite different this fall not hearing the cotton gins running as the farmers are not making much cotton to be ginned. On Tuesday the 23rd, my brother, H. H. Ruff was carried to a Colum bia hospital. Last heard he was some better and we hope that he wilV be home in a few days. Jeff Sease underwent an operation Monday at the Catholic hospital in Columbia. We trust he will soon be on hi® feet again. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Kinard of the Jolly Street section are moving into our community. We welcome them and wish them success. Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Crumpton of Newberry are moving to the St. Phil ips section this week. A welcome is also extended to them. MRS. McCRACKIN HOSTESS TO ONCE-A-WEEK CLUB Mrs. J. T.
