HAIR AND SCALP AUTHORITY
HERE TO TELL TRUTH
ABOUT BALDNESS
A personal demonstration will be held from 12 noon until 9:00 p.m. on
Sunday ONLY, July 17, 1955, in the Newberry Hotel in Newberry.
South Carolina by the Merrill Hair and Scalp Consultants of Wichita
Falls, Texas.
The Merrill Consultant is being
aent here for the express purpose
of explaining to the people of our
city, the facts and the truth about
hair and scalp disorders. He will
explain the 18 common- scalp dis
orders that cause most men and
■women to lose their hair. He will
demonstrate the proper method of
hair and scalp hygiene that have
been proven successful for thous
ands of Americans from coast to
coast. The Merrill Hair and Scalp
Consultants will give you, FREE,
New Hair Is Permanent
“If every man and woman will fol
low our directions faithfully dur
ing treatment and after finishing
treatment there is no reason why
they will not have hair all the
rest of their lives,” ' says this
authority. “We know our treat
ments will work from our thous
ands of testimonials. It all de
pends on the individual person’s
faithful observance of a few sim
ple rules.”

Merrill Hair and Scalp Consult-
natlon and tell you why you are
losing your hair, or why you are
having trouble with your scalp.
Hopeless Cases Are Few
First, the Merrill Consultant is
quick to tell the hopeless cases
that they cannot be helped. Once
a man is completely, shiny bald,
mnthing can be done. But the
hopeless cases are few. Because,
if the hair roots are still alive,
(evidenced by the presence of
light, colorless fuzz,) the Merrill
Consultant can perform what
sometimes seem to be wonders.
In the private examination, these
facts will come to light.
No Charge For Examination
The examination is Very thorough
and highly technical. It requires a
full 20 to 30 minutes. And, there
Is no charge for this examination.
After the examination, you will be
told the required length of treat
ment and how much it will cost
After starting the treatment, you
-will make regular reports to the
Merrill Laboratory in Wichita
Falls, Texas. An expert will check
your progress • regularly, and
keep in touch with you through
out your course of treatment. As
you will be shown at your inter
view, Merrill offers you a written
guarantee of satisfaction.
a complete hair and scalp exami-1 ants GUARANTEE, in a written
certificate given to each new
client, that if you are not respond
ing satisfactorily to treatment at
the end of 30 days, that all money
paid on treatments will be grac
iously refunded. “We do this to
overcome skepticism,” says the
Merrill Consultant. “Most of our
clients are happy, satisfied men
and women, confident that they
will regain their hair and remove
all traces of imbedded dandruff
and other malicious hair and scalp
ailments that . prevent natural
growth. This guarantee is for
those who want to be assured
that they will get their money’s
worth, and that is exactly what
we intend to give them!”
A Truthful Note
Thousands of men and women
have been helped by the Merrill
methods. Because of their tremen
dous success in this field, it
should be said here that there are
some who cannot benefit from
these treatments. Any person
who is slick, shiny bald, is destin
ed to remain so. If there is any
sign of fuzz, no matter how short
or colorless ,there is a definite
chance that hair may be re-
grown in time. “We have no cure-
all,” says our expert. “But if you
take care of your hair, we can
help you have healthy, normal,
lasting hair that you will be proud
of all your life.”
: V'-''
The Merrill Consultant will occupy a suite of rooms in the Newberry
Hotel in Newberry, S. C. on Sunday, July 17 from 12 noon until 9^:00
p.m. Ask at the desk for the Merrill Consultant and see what can
be done for your troublesome hair and scalp condition.
NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY
You need not have an appoint
ment to take advantage of this
clinic. All examinations are pri
vate and yon will not be embar
rassed or obligated in any way.
Both men and women are wel
come.

CUSTOMS BILL REDUCES
TARIFFS
The Senate is expected to 'act
soon on a bill that would further
reduce tariffs on imports from
foreign nations in competition
with our textile and other pro
ducts manufactured in this coun
try. This would be in addition to
the drastic cuts negotiated undei)
the 1951 Trade Law at the recent
GATT conference at Geneva.
The measure, called the . Cus-<
toms Simplification bill, would
reduce tariffs on an average of
two and one-half per cent—as
much as 15 per cent on some items
—by redifining terms previously
used in import duty evaluations.
For this reason, I shall vigorous
ly oppose the bill when it comes
up for Senate floor action. It has
already been passed by the house.
48 JOIN TARIFF FIGHT
Forty-eight Senate colleagues
have joined me in introducing a
resolution that would order an
investigation of the effects of
the textile tariff cuts negotiated
at the GATT conference. The res
olution would direct the Tariff
Commission to begin a study of
the drastic tariff reductions, some
running as high as 27 to 48 per
cent on the basic products of the
textile industry—and to make a
report to the president.
What we are seeking is preven
tive action. I do not believe w;e
should wait until irreparable harm
is done our industry before we
act to provide the necessary re
lief. I have high hopes for pass
age of this resolution since a ma
jority of the Senate has already
joined in support of it as co-spoh-
sore.
PRESIDENT CAN ADJUST
RATES
By starting a study into the
likely effects of these tariff re
ductions as soon as they go into
effect—September 10 — precious
time can be saved. This time sav
ed could well determine how full
a schedule our mills might oper
ate on.
As soon as the investigation is
completed, the commission must
file a report with the president,
who has the power to impose
quotas, raise tariffs, or make ad
justments necessary to provide
adequate protection fori our tex
tile industry and its millions of
employees.
I have notified the president of
my actions, and I have asked that
he also order the Tariff Commiss
ion to make this investigation.
CUTS UNDER OLD LAW
Realizing the vital importance
Carolina and the nation as a whole
of the textile industry to South
I am deeply concerned as to the
likely effects of the Geneva ne
gotiations. These cuts were made
possible under the 1951 extension
of the old trade faw. I am glad
that the new law passed this year
however, does have adequate pro
tection written into it by three
amendments offered on behalf of
16 Senate colleagues and myself.
These amendments make it im
possible to further reduce items
severely cut at Geneva.
RESERVE BILL PASSES
The House has now passed the
Reserve bill without Congressman
Powell’s amendment which would
outlaw segregation in our State
National Guard units. Th6 Pow
ell amendment was defeated by a
vote of 156 to 195.; This amend
ment previously/ threatened to
kill this vital defense need until
President Eisenhower appealed to
Congress and the nation t to put
national defense above personal
interests.'
Powell is now threatening to tie
up the Housing bill with an am
endment that would wipe out
segregation in, not only all pub
lic hou8ing> but all private hous
ing financed by government loans.
Amendments To Law Will
Affect 43,000 In State
In order to conform to Federal
legislation already adopted, the
91st General Assembly of South
Carolina passed several amend
ments to the State) Unemployment
Compensation law which, with the
possible exception of' the State
appropriations bill will probably
affect more people than any g>th-
er piece of legislation dealt with
at the past session. Almost 700Q
employers and about 36,000 em
ployees will be affected for the
first time by the amendments,
some of which are effective on
July 1 this year and others on
January 1, 1956. There are now
approximately 6200 employers and
355,000 workers covered under the
law.
Starting the first of next year
Congress has imposed a payroll
tax of 3' per cent on employers
(except those engaged in exempt
employment, such as agriculture)
having ip their employ four or
more individuals in each of .20
weeks during a calendar year.
From this Federal tax there is no
provision made for unemployment
compensation to workers. The
General Assembly made this pos
sible by amending the State law
to cover such employers in South
Carolina. By paying contributions
under the South Carolina law em
ployers may credit their contribu
tions against the Federal tax up
to 90 per cent of the Federal tax.
Because of the increases in
weekly wages and living costs
during the last few years and to
bring South Carolina more in line
with other states in this area, the
computation of benefits for qual
ified unemployed workers was
also changed this year. Beginning
July 1 of this year, the maximum
weekly benefit will be raise4 from
$20 to $26 and the minimum from
$5 to $8. However, the new pro
visions of' the benefit section ,of
the law will apply only to those
workers who file a new initial
claim for unemployment benefits
effective^ on or after July 1. ,

Sports Afield
(By TED KEATING)
Literally millions of people are
turning to boating for recreation;
many of them are entirely new to
boats and this means an inevita
ble increase in the number of ac
cidents.
There are two approaches to
this matter of boating safety.
There’s the legislative—pass a law
aboutit. There is the educational—
teach the boater what safety rules
he should follow, and convince
him to do it.
Most town boards and cpunty
supervisors considering boating
legislation welcome information.
Water laws are something new
to them. Yau oan give them the
address of the Outboard Boating
Club of America, 307 N. Michigan,
Chicago, 111., so they can get a
copy of the booklet on uniform
boating regulations.
With the help of some of the
wisest boating heads in the coun
try, the OBC has drawn up this
recommended uniform boat regu
lation act. Its excellence is large
ly due to the careful following of
these basic principles: to exclude
everything found unenforcable or
ineffective; to include only what
v can be made to work; and to fol
low as closely as practicable the
laws and regulations the Coast
Guard now enforces in federally
navigable waters.
Willard Crandall, boating edi
tor of Sports Afield magazine,
says there are a hundred ways a
I boating or sportsman’s club can
'help in safety; printing and put
ting up posters at docks, land
ings, resorts and boat shops; club
or boat cruises—how can the par
ticipants help but learn a lot a-
bout boats and water; special Ju
venile membership and activities
present an unlimited field. 7
Even as an individual there is
much you can do to promote local
water safety because, basically,
safety violations are much more
often caused by ignorance than by
carelessness. It can work like
this:
You see a stranger about to
leave a pier with an overloaded
boat. Yon can’t tell him to stop,
that he doesn’t know safety. He
might shove you off the dock. In
stead, you ask if lie likes his
boat Is it a little tippy? You had
one much like it, and it was, and
that’s why you asked. Of course,
you never realized that yours was
tippy until one day you stayed
out longer than all the other
boats „ . . .blame yourself for a
near tragedy with that boat—-you
were a should-know-better fool
to take risks with a big load and
a small boat.
Of course, he’ll go right out
with the whole load; but you’ll
have started him to thinking.
