SEES JOHNSON
(Continued from Front Page)
spokesman for labor, asked
“where does” Thurmond stand
on capital and labor.
“If the people are permitted
to vote (this year), Olin John
ston will be swept into office,”
he declared.
“Thurmond can speak in Ne
gro churches, shake hands with
the Negro servants at weddings
xxx but Johnston still is go
ing to be elected.
“Labor will vote for John
ston, the teachers will vote for
Johnston, the poor people will
vote for Johnston.”
He predicted that Johnston
will beat Thurmond by “de
cisive” margins in Anderson,
Spartanburg, Greenville and
Lancaster Counties.”
Besides these counties, he
said Richland, Kershaw, Lau
rens, Union, Florence, Calhoun,
Cherokee, Colleton, York, Beau
fort, Lee, Marlboro, Aiken,
Chesterfield, Chester, Marion
and Horry also would go for
Johnston.
Sumter is “doubtful,” he
conceded, and may go for
Thurmond. Dillon and Saluda
also were named as doubtful
and Bamberg was called a
“toss-up.”
Edgefield, Thurmond’s home
county, will be for Thurmond
“just as a matter of local
pride,” Culbertson said. ^
Mentioning Georgetown, he
said “I wouldn’t be surprised
if we lost it.”
Culbertson charged that The
Greenville News and Piedmont,
against which he has talked
before, “have a very selfish in
terest in Thurmond,” although,
he said, they opposed hijn
“subtly” in the 1946 governor’s
race.
The two papers, Culbertson
continued, are interested in “re
taining the federal judgeship of
C. C. Wyche,” a brother of
Granville Wyche, attorney for
The Greenville News-Piedmont
Company. He said is case of a
vacancy Johnston would have
the right of nominating a new
judge.
“You’ll never see anything
in the papers about this,” Cul
bertson added.

His descendants now just say,
“Gimme.”

GETTING ON WITH -
THE BUSINESS
Judge B. B. Hare, over to ad
dress the Kiwanis a while back,
told of an old gentleman who
craved grandchildren above all
gifts of this earth. He had sev
eral married but childless sons
and daughters and once seated
around the dining table at a
family gathering the old fellow
unburdened his heart. So
earnestly did his heart pant for
a grandchild that he had the
day before deposited $100,000
in a bank to go to the first of
his sons or daughters who pre
sented him with one. Finished
with his lament he asked that
they bow their heads while he
asked grace. When he raised
his head again no one was in
sight!
