Myrtle Beach, May 16—Carl Chung
Lim, Korean gift shop operator, tele
graphed President Roosevelt that his
business was suffering because Ihe is
being mistaken for a Japanese.
Lim received a letter from Edward
J. Ennis, director, alien enemy con
trol unit, department of justice,
Washington, expressing the depart
ment’s regret that Lim is “being
persecuted and inconvenienced in any
way because of such an error.’
“This department recognizes the
fact that Koreans should not be con
fused with Japanese as is evidenced
by a press release issued by this de
partment on February 9, 1942. This
press release contains an announce
ment by the attorney general that
certain classes of aliens from Axis-
dominated countries, among them
Koreans, are exempted from the re
strictions placed upon alien enemies.
As the attorney general said: “This
exemption is designed to exempt the
many thousands of loyal aliens of
Korean nationality who have never
been sympathetic to the government
imposed upon their homelands by mil
itary conquest’.”
Director Ennis suggests that Lim
“call these facts to the attention of
the people in your city so that you
may clarify your status in the eyes
of the residents of your commun
ity.”

CAN’T STAND CRITICISM
Santa Fe, N. M.—A man who had
been living with his common law
wife 15 years, and had seven chil
dren, appeared before the draft
board.
New Mexico law does not recog
nize such a union, and the board
chairman tactfully suggested a wed
ding might be in order.
“I’ve been* thinking about that,”
admitted the registrant, “but I didn’t
want anyone to think T got married
just to avoid the draft.”
Miss Louise Harmon, who taught in
Easley schools for the past session
will arrive home this weekend to
spend the summer with her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Harmon.

SCHOOLS DISPOSE OF SCRAP
The high school and Boundary
Street school sold scrap metal and
tires out of their bins this week. It
is quite interesting to note the
amount of the checks each school re
ceived from the salvage collected in
the bins on the square.
Speer street school received $7.92
for the scrap in their bin, the high
school $7.99 and Boundary Street
received $7.97.
There are a few more bins which
have not sold their scrap. The fact
that the schools are selling the scrap
out of these bins does not mean that
they have quit collecting scrap iron.
They are only cleaning out to make
room for more. The school^ will— 1
continue to gather metal for these
bins and the public is asked to
gather up any scrap iron Which they
may have around the house and put
it in one of these bins.
Scrap iron is urgently needed as z
vital necessity for war production.
Let’s see how soon these bins will
be filled again. The chamber of
commerce & the Salvage committee
wishes to express thanks and appre
ciation and congratulations to these
schools for collecting this amount of
scrap iron.—Chamber of Commerce.
