Y\M U NO U NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, 1951 + $1.50 PER YEAR Serious Outbreak Of Fall Grass Worm Threatening Damage To Growing Forage (Opinions expressed in this col umn are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the views of the publishers, “We” being the Editorial we. And hav ing no reference to the publish ers) THIS SCHOOL BUSINESS Next Tuesday you will be ask ed to vote on a levy to provide funds to operate our schools for the coming year. Readers of this newspaper will recall the fight we made on the School Unit plan some months ago, and that that plan was roundly defeated. We do not like the Byrnes plan any better than we did the Unit plan. Both smack of regi mentation and Jim being a bureaucrat in the house of left wingers for so long completely dumb to the idea that anyone except the rulers have the right to a voice in what hap pens to them. This bureau crat Byrnes with the help of an adoring legislature has saddled this monstrosity upon us. We are bound and gagged and though this thin voice of pro test be in vain we must put our protest on record. The planners has set out to strip our rural communities of their schools. They couldn’t do it working a county at a time with their “Unit” plan so they hatched up this sales tax busi ness and put it over with the help of school people on the plea that it would vastly increase the salaries of teachers. But, alas, the teachers are learning that this feature too is a sham and a delusion; that they will pay as much in sales taxes as their in crease amounts to. The planners are not only going to strip our rural areas of their white schools but they are going to plant negro schools in buildings made vacant by con solidation. In short you will have negro schools smack in the middle of white communities Where white people have toiled in instances a lifetime to build a community in which they could enjoy a measure of social lift. * We do not disfavor better schools for negroes and the absence of any transportation for them has long been a shame but we would not plant a negro school in the center of a white community any more than we would plant a white school in a negro community. Segregation is an accepted fact here in the South, left-wing Jimmie and all his foul brood to the contrary. A serious outbreak of fall grass worm lias occurred in Newberry County during the last few days. These worms have caused a great deal of damage to vigorously growing forage plants. Watchful ness and use of insecticides where needed are advised by County Agent 1*. B. Ezell. He advises the use of toxaphene (10 pounds 2u percent dust or l-il gallon of a 6-pound-per-gallon emulsion per acre), or Methozy chlor (.‘1 pounds “Marlate 50” In 100 gallons water, or 15 pounds 10 percent Methoxychlor per acre) for controlling grassworm outbreaks on pastures ami on hay crops with the precaution that lactating dairy cattle be mov ed off for at least three days after application. Crops like grain sorghum to be utilized for grain not for grazing 15 pounds of 10 percent DDT dust may also be used. One application of any of these materials will usually bo sufficient to check an out break on any given area.

Circle II Monday afternoon at four o’clock with Mrs. Sam Sin clair. Circle III Monday night at eight o’clock with Mrs. Jack Chappell. Circle IV Monday night at 8 o’clock with Mrs. W. W. Bennett. The planners have arbitrarily lifted many of you from one dis trict and placed you in another without your consent, yea, even without your knowledge. Many of you who have been paying four or six mills or less will pay 15 if the election carries, also with out your consent. The planners have long ago agreed that the people are not capable of think ing for themselves. It must be done for them on what the bureaucrats like to call a “higher level.” Rev. Hamrick Holds Revival At Bush River HOWEVER, and this is a hell of a however! You are hooked, bound and completely without recourse. A duly elect ed legislature has spoken; has kow-towed to the will the Byrnes regimenters and passed a school law which will have to be obeyed, at least for the present. Unless you vote for this levy you will have no schools next year and certainly none of us want that. None of the sales tax money goes for •rdlnary school expenses, but rather for transportation, new buildings and teachers’ salaries. Many feel so deeply about this thing that they would not vote for the levy erven if the schools do have to close but we advise against such action. We simply cannot afford to close our schools for even a short time. So, go to the polls Tuesday and vote this levy. Remember, it can be voted off and this whole school knocked out and remem ber too that this column can al ways be depended upon to fight for the life of our rural schools. —O.F.A. Rev. John A. Hamrick, pastor of the First Baptist church of Charleston, is returning to Bush River Baptist church for the third successive year as guest speak er in revival services, which will begin Monday evening, August 13.

Dr. Kinard Addresses Summer Graduates; Advises Generation Retrace Steps To Sanity Nine men and women received their degrees from Newberry Col lege in exercises held here last Friday night. President James C. Kinard, who addressed the class, spoke on “What is Your Diploma Worth?” Speaking directly to the class, he said: “Presumably it would be in order for me to congratulate you but it would be fairer to offer you my sincere sympathy. You are going to have to test the worth of your diploma in a soci ety which is distressingly weak in standards of morality; an at titude of life that accepts the propositions that economic secur ity can be purchased at the ex pense of individual freedom; that bribery, chicanery and fraud con stitute the sure sesame to suc cessful careers; that the worship of gold must supplant the worship of God; that all hope of nations ever living together in peace must forever be abandoned.” Dr. Kinard added: “Unless you men and women of this younger generation take firm hold and help us retrace our steps to sanity and start all over again, the historian will set the 1930’s as the approximate beginning of the end of American democracy based on faith in God and the dignity of the individual and the rise of the dangerous doctrine that the state is supreme.” The speaker told the graduates that they could hold their heads high as graduates of a small liberal arts church college. He pointed out statistics in Who’s Who in America to show that the alumni of colleges like Newberry outnumber the graduates of larg er and other types of schools by three to one. He quoted the editors of this publication as say ing: “A very large proportion of graduates devote themselves to occupations that lead to better ment of society rather than to in dividual distinction or financial remuneration.” President Kinard, a prominent sophomore class. layman in the United Lutheran Church in America, concluded his remarks to the class with this: “Your diploma will be of incal culable value to you if it con tinues to remind you to apply the teachings of Jesus Christ to the practical problem^ of life day by day.” Dr. R. A. Goodman, secretary of the faculty, gave the invoca tion and benediction and, assisted by James C. Abrams, registrar, presented the candidates for graduation.
