MAYBANK STRATEGY
Senator Mayfcank made a pood
move in inducing Henry Hare to be
come his chief appeaser, with title
of secretary. Henry is around 50
years old. He knows Washington
and South Carolina and will be of
great value to Senator Mayfcank.
Not only has the senator secured a
good secretary, but the appointment
seems to remove the possibility that
Butler Hare will be a candidate for
Senate, and it gives Mr. Maybank a
good tie-up in the up country.
It is entirely possible that the sug
gestion came from Justice Byrnes,
whom Mr. Hare served so long both
in the Senate and the House.
Henry Hare is an affable sort of
fellow and his friends will no doubt
be seeing more of him as he visits
the State in behalf of the Senator.
EATING WITH POST 24
I broke bread with th.- Legionnaires
Tuesday, after yearly invitations for
10 years from Jake Wise. I hardly
ever go to things where there is a
lot to eat. My digestive apparatus
is attuned to the more simple grub
and it rebels at fine food.
It was a fine occasion. The food
was good and well prepared; the fel
lowship ^as spontaneous and hearty,
and the bantering and wise cracks of
Johnnie Kinard was up to par. There
couldn’t very well be a legion ban
quet without the inimitable Johnnie.
Bald heads were prominent among
the boys who fought Wo.id war No. 1
and many have passed from the scene
since the local post was formed. Fur
rowed faces there were too, but this
was an event of joyousr.ess and that
spirit prevailed.
Doctor Zach Wright rid himself of
a speech which seemed to take with
the boys.
The lone lady member of the post,
Miss Thesera Leighbsey, was there
and got a round of applause. Miss
Grace Summer, president of the le
gion’s auxiliary, thanked the legion
for past cooperation with their unit

work. The Board of Stewards under
the efficient leadership of Mr. E. M.

the success that had attended the
work of the church during the year.
In spite of the number of deaths and

gain in membership. The Board of

bank today appointed H. B. Hare of
Saluda, S. C., a brother of Represen
tative Butler Hare, his secretary.
Hare, who has been connected with
the legal division of the agriculture
department since 1933, was secretary
to Associate Justice James F. Byrnes
when he was member of the house
from 1911 to 1925 and one year when
Byrnes came to the senate in 1931.
Maybank said he was “particularly
fortunate” in obtaining Hare wiiose
experience on Capitol Hill and other
activities with the government, he
said, would enable him and his office
to be of greater service to South
Carolina.
The new senator also announced

Miss Moretta Connor of Spartanburg
would be members of the secretarial
staff. Miss Connor was employed in
Senator Byrnes’ office for several

RESPONSE TO ROLL CALL GOOD
Memberships in the Red Cross are
coming in most wonderfully to date.
Many large gifts have been received
and so much appreciated. We believe
the people of Newberry and Newberry
county really have the spirit and in
terest. Everyone wants to help. The
canvassers are most heroic; mrny of
them asking for more territory. Must
announce that all the territory has
been taken and all of us must “dig In”
to concentrated and urgent work in
our given area. All are responding
in such a splendid way. We hope to
publish a list of all contributors who
take memberships of more than one
dollar. There will be quite a list of
these if it proceeds as started al
ready. There is a fine group of loyal
large-givers in Newberry which can
always be counted on in times of ur
gency. To date the majority of all
organizations have either shown an
intention of making a contribution or
have already made one.
