SPECTATOR
So this is the “Glorious
Fourth’’! This is the land of the
free. Naturally we turn to the
Declaration of Independence.
And it may prove inspiriting.
Verily money makes cowards
of us all. Shakespeare says that
conscience makes cowards of us,
all, but men of today are more
sensitive in purse than in con
science. And we defend the
purse much more vigorously
than we defend our consciences.
That may sound a bit aharp, but
think it over.
One day at the beginning of
the Second World War a man
said to me in Columbia: “Men
will volunteer to fight; they
will risk their lives; they will
let thair sons go to war; they
will even lose their sons—all
without a murmur, but if you
lay on them enough taxes to
wage a war they will squeal
Uke stuck pigs”. That is not
far from the truth, is it? We
are more ready to yield our
lives than our money. This
doesn’t argue for recklessness
either or life or taxes. We have
been wasteful of both, even be-
yomd the limits of permissible
waste, for war is the most waste
ful of all efforts, though some
times redeemed by the motive.
The sacrifices of war are said to
be a great discipline of the spir
it, a sort of National and indi
vidual and family chastening.
Unfortunately the two World
wars have not so far resulted in
spiritual refinement.
The Declaration of Indenpend-
ence was a bold defiance of
Goliath by a little David. The
men who signed the Declaration
were not mere nobodies; they
were men of standing and men
of substance. They deliberately
attracted to themselves the light
ning and thunderbolts of a great
and powerful England. Each
man was in danger of being
hanged by the neck for treason.
They were rebels, challenging
their King.
One ground for the break with
England was high taxation, vex
atious taxation. Today we sub
mit to greater, more vexatious
taxation, and we stand by the
President because we prefer to
maintain Party regularity than
to strike off some of the shackles
from our feet. So great is our
statesmanship today that we
yield ourselves, our business,
our county, to the whim of one
man: And we in meekness
stand ready to vote for some
thing of national welfare, or
against it, as the one man may
ordain. And that is statesman
ship! Save the marie!!
Of course the Congress should
pass the Tax Bill again and the
people should demand drastic
reduction in the number of bu
reaucrats and in the prodigality
of Government spending.
We can’t expect economy in
Washington if we run about
with outstretched hands beseech
ing the Congress for handouts.
Nor can we continue to throw
money around in a fantastic ef
fort to buy so-called democracy.
The Bamberg Herald is the
weekly production of two choice
spirits. I say that I see in im
agination many other cheice
spirits, for I sincerely and warm
ly respect and admire most of
my fellow scribes of the South
Carolina press, including notab
ly the scribes of the news-gath
ering agencies and the special
writers. And I must not for
get—and do not forget—the rad
io commentators.
Pause a moment. Does it
surprise you that one who is so
often critical, even censorious,
should be embarrassed because
of the number of men and wo
men serving the public? It is
true. Whenever I mention ne
by name I think of all the
others. But back to Mister ana
Mrs. Hitt of Bamberg, modest,
genteel, patriotic people: In The
Bamberg Herald that is before
me is a short editorial under
the heading “Where was the
money spent”? What money?
I quote the editoiral:
“The International Teamster,
which comes to our desk, recent
ly stated that the Teamsters’
union alone contributed the
sum of $93,750 toward a fund “to
help defeat or to help influence
the president to veto the labor
bill passed by congress.” The
paper added that the United
Mine Workers had also con
tributed a total of $90,000 for
the same puprose. It appears
that these two unions, not to
mention the dozens of others,
made up a fund of $183,750 to
defeat or influence the president
to veto the labor bill, which be
came law in spite of the unions’
money. We think the people
might inquire into how this
money was spent. We can see
how a reasonable sum might
be legally spent in employing
cousel and propagandists in an
effort to defeat the bill before
it was passed, but we cannot
understand how any sum could
be legally employed to infuence
the president to veto it. And to
spend hundreds of thousands, as
was apparently done, seems to us
as being entirely out of place,
and unless it was used to buy
somebody off we don’t see how
it was spent.”
I attended the hearing before
Judge Bellinger on the Holman
petition to declare invalid the
“Extra Pay”. The newspapers
of the state have rendered a
great service. I include the Radio
brethren also, of course. The
“rest, residue and remainder” of
the State, with about six excep
tions, have sat back and let
Holman fight. But no one need
think that is is a one-man battle;
by no means. The publicity al
ready given—and to be given—
will make this a live issue. Even
now Judge Holman might attack
the unconstitutionality of both
the regular annual pay, as well
as the $700 extra pay.
One fact stands out: the
courts are but one step in this
case; the whole matter will be
heard a thousand times in ali
the clarity of plain English.
Is anything wrong in the
Highway Department? Let’s get
down to brass tacks: Why do
they want to throw Commission
er Williamson out of office? The
public wants the facts. Mr. Wil
liamson may not be a good
mixer; he may not know how to
distinguish between us ordinary
fellows and the big men whose
word can make Kings—and un
make them. Who are these
big men? What do they want?
We’ve heard much about the:
“Barnwell Ring”, but whai
“Ring” is this that calls for Wil
liamson’s scalp, or his head on a
charger? It may be that we
should love Williamson more be
cause of the enemies he has
made.
I have great respect for both
Mr. Williamson and Mr. Mc
Millan; they are men seriously
devoted to their work. I know no
reason for this dramatic idea ol
giving Mr. Williamson another
job at more salary. Why should
the Commission feel so free
about creating new jobs? No
other Board or Commission can
do that. Nor should this Com
mission be allowed to do it.
Since the Commission has fail
ed to inform the public, we
must draw our own conclusions.
Our first conslusion is that there
is something that wont stand the
light. What is it?
Highway Commissioners can
be impeached; they are not above
the processes of accountability.
On the Fourth I read again
the famous Declaration of Inde-
peodence. The first signer was
a merchant. He signed in a big
bold handwriting. So prominent
is that signature—John Hancock
—that we frequently tell a man
who must sign a paper “Put
your John Hancock there”.
John Hancock wasn’t afraid of
losing trade; he didn’t hesitate
to “put his neck out”. That is
exactly what he did in very
truth—h e might have swung
from the gibbet as a traitor.
And to show that Hancock was
not alone in standing like a man,
we find other merchants who
signed: Samuel Adams, George
Clymer, Elbridge Gerry, Button
Gwinnett, Francis Lewis, Phil
lip Livingston, Robert Morris—
all merchants, but patriots first.
Physicians are frequently out
spoken champions. There were
physicians who signed the Dec
laration:
Josiab Bartlett, Lyman Hall,
Benjamin Rush, George Taylor,
Matthew Thornton, Oliver Wol
cott.
It doesn’t surprise us that a
planter and farmers signed, one
as a planter, others as farmers.
The difference between a plant
er and a farmer is like that of
the vase and the “vauze” or pe
can and “pekon”; the vase can
be bought for ten cents or a dol
lar; but when your wife or
daughter really strains or breaks
the family budget, it is a
“vauze”. I think, the planter
sits his horse and overlooks a
thousand acres, summoning his
men to his horse; he soils the in
side of his shirt: the farmer
walk in his fields, lending a
hand, getting dirty all over and
wet with honest sweat. Strange
ly enough six farmers signed the
Declaration, with one planter.
The lawyers were all over the
place, of course—26; but the
lawyers were not in the major
ity, as there were 56 signers.
Even some of these lawyers liv
ed on the land, or lived off the
land, as one may prefer. It is
one of the charming qualities of
our wonderful English language
that one who lives off the land
may live on it at the same time.
The lawyers of that early per
iod served the cause of freedom,
most of them; they were cham
pions of good government and
interested in principles of gov
ernment.
I take off my hat to Judge A.
W. Holman: he is a lawyer of
the old school. We have others
whef once contributed their abil
ity to the promotion of good gov
ernment, without salary, pay,
emolument, stipend, perquisite,
per diem, or “extra pay”.
The whole state was amazed
and disgusted by this “extra
pay”, camouflaged as “expense
money”, but only A. W. Hol
man challenged it in court. He
is a gallant figure, a modest
gentleman, doing his bit as a
soldier of peace. How many
men (and women) in South Car
olina will join in a crusade to
restore Constitutional govern
ment in South Carolina? How
many know that we have a
Constitution?
When a people lose their fight
ing spirit they sell their liberty
for a mess of pottage.

Cover food to keep flies away,
especially during the polio
danger months in summer, is
another wise precaution to fol
low in combatting spread of the
disease, the National Founda

tions through its local chapter.
The “blue-bottle” fly, partic
ularly, is suspected as a possible
factor in transmitting the virus
as a result of evidence dis
closed by investigations fi
nanced by March of Dimes

The National Foundation also urges that all fresh fruit
and vegetables should be washed before use; left-over foods
covered properly, and garbage or rubbish placed in containers
with lids so that flies cannot get to it.
