(TAB) WERTZ FARMS AND FOLKS E y Continued from preceeding page ture of cotton. For listen to what he says: “Ninety-five per cent or better of the farmers of Edgefield county have planted seed of known origin and most of them only one year from the breeder.” BOYS ARE THAT WAY We had a pet pig, were crazy about it, and fed it regularly in the back yard. We did not pen it up with the other hogs. He knew when it was meal time and was usually squealing at the back steps before we finish ed. We wolud gather up the scraps and feed him. Soon a much larger shote from a neighbor’s yard learned of our feeding time. Unless we stayed there and minded it a- way, it would root our pig out of the trough and clean it out in one sweep with his snout from end to end. This day he was not there and I went back in the house after feeding ours. I heard ours squeal soon after I went in. as the neighbor’s shote pitched him from the trough. I peeped out and saw him standing with all feet in the trough sucking it dry. I slipped out the other way and sneaked up behind the cellar shed, and there he was, just around the comer. A heavy homemade baseball bat is all that was handy in the comer. I grabbed that and eased around the comer. With his head in the trough, he did not see me. With all my strength, I let him have it, right across the back. He let up a powerful squeal as he fell right in the trough. He wiggled and roiled out, still squaling, and could not stand. That scared me, and I ran up stairs to watch from the win dow. I was sure the neighbor would hear that squealing and get me. Soon the shote got up on his forefeet and tried to drag himlself along, and his squeal ing echoed through hill and vale. He dragged himself a- long a little and to my delight, he soon regained all four feet, stopped squealing, and beat it for . home. And, was I relieved. And that shote never came across the road to bother us again.

Most observers thought it was just another South American political upheaval. Yet. when the smoke of pillaging, the looting, and the dynamiting had ceased, it was evident that this rebellion had something different. The new ingredient was the amazing pre cision of timing and the speed with which the events moved. When American newspaper men who were in Bogota had time to think about it. they discovered that this “revolution’ was pulled off with the same practiced tech niques that European Cnmmu- nist.s have been known to use It was also discovered, after the haze cleared, that our own State Department, including our Bogo ta foreign office, had received warnings out of Chile that some thing was afoot. Yet nothing pre vented the uprising. “Mass" FIRST a liberal party Action leader was shot down on the street under cir cumstances that indicate the Communists may have killed one of their own. just to get things started. The assassin was stomp ed to death and mutilated so tha' identification was impossible. Af ter that, just like clock.trork. mobs in widely scattered areas got busy They grabbed radio stations and asked the “masses’’ to go forward to the attack. The Communists then really took to their soap-boxes. They openly identified th?mselves as Communists and called for com rades to raid any place that might have weapons. Other mobs at tacked public buildings, including the famed Capitol where the in WAR DEAD ESCORT Harry R. Harris, chief ma chinists mate, U. S. Navy, hus- band of Mrs. Almena D. Harris of 314 Hiller street, is escort ing Navy War dead being brought home from overseas. Harris is one of the eight Chief petty officers assigned to the task of accompanying bluejack ets heroes to their families. Harris, like mtost Navy es corts, is a combat veteran him self. He was with Doolittle’s fiitst raid on Tokyo. ing held. Yet another mob drag>- g ed the assassin’s corpse to the olombian president’s mansion, where it was flung across the doorstep for the rest of the af ternoon. Lawless WHAT HAPPENED Fanaticism to the police? They had disappeared. Nor did the army show up. The mob, therefore, went about freely burning automobiles and wreck ing buildings. Though the army was said to he critically short of gasoline, yet plenty was available for the gangs Plenty of dyna mite also While these things were happening in Bogota, key centers elsewhere were being burned and pillaged in the same manner. Why am 1 recounting all thisf I want to demonstrate that Com munism is not a law-abiding po litical party It is a lawless fa naticism. We have had a demon stration right here in this hemis phere which shows the type of terrorism and force made use of by Communists to gain political power. What Communists have done in Russia and in European riots and uprisings, they will do again wherever they can, in whatever countries they And sleeping on the job. America must not be lulled to sleep by the sweet words of mis guided idealists, who are being used by revolutionists the worla over. There are few real Com munists in America. There ara not many Americans that desire to join lawless mobs. But Com munists will stop at nothing which will cause strife and divi sion among our people We must know the methods of Commu nists, for It we do not anticipate the harm that even a few at theca car do *a stand te Wia* what la 4 —- That Bogota Affair jjL ' By GEORGE S. BENSON ^ is Me Praiidant of Harding Collaga Searcy. Arkansas Jul&dw ps T '■ — I his newspaper grew la a forest Until it was discovered that paper could be made from wood, there were no great daily papers as we know them today. Today, trees flow in a continuous stream from forest to pulp and paper mill, to roaring presses, to you. And because trees grow—our forests are one great natural resource that can be replaced—Americans can always enjoy their favorite newspapers. Today, America’s woodland owners are learning about "good forest management”. On areas called "tree farms”, we are growing —like other crops—trees for tomorrow. Everyone has a share in our forest future, and a share of responsi bility, too. It takes all of us to keep our forests safe from fire. Talk —think—act to KEEP AMERICA GREEN.
