page six THE NEWBERRY SUN THURSDAY, APRIL 5, 1956 ROUND-UP OF MAJOR ACTIVITIES This is my final report on my activities in Washington, as my resignation from the United States Senate takes effect April 4. NATIONAL SECURITY During my brief period of service in the Senate, our people have been concerned with many matters of major importance, chief among these being the threat of Communist aggression. In the Senate, I have voted to support a strong, firm policy in dealing with the Com munists. In addition, I have advocated and supported the mainte nance of a strong military establishment with a large, combat-ready reserve in order to keep our country in a high state of preparedness. FARM PROBLEMS At home, our people have been faced with problems which pose grave threats to their economic welfare. While most of the other segments of our economy have been enjoying a mild economic boom, prosperity has been by-passing our farm population. Our farmers find themselves caught in a tight economic bind between rising pro duction costs and lower prices for their products. This is pushing thousands of our small farmers and their families off the farms. In the Senate, I have voted for various provisions of the Senate farm bill which I believe will solve many of our farm problems and help to preserve the farm family, one of the finest family units in the world. The Senate bill is now in a free conference committee, which, I am glad to report has voted to restore 90 per cent of parity for the 1957 crap year. My hope now is that this bill will be rap idly approved and signed into law so our farmers can begin receiving its benefits a»s soon as possible. TEXTILE THREAT Our textile workers have also faced a grave threat to their eco nomic welfare. This danger is the influx of cheap, foreign-manu- factured textiles onto our domestic markets. While in the Senate, I have devoted a great deal of my time and efforts toward stemming this threat to our State’s largest industry. Last year I succeeded in getting the free trade bill amended to prevent letting down fur ther the bars to foreign imports. I have also requested that im port quotas be applied by the Administration, and have introduced legislation for the purpose of effecting quotas. These efforts have resulted in causing the Japanese to place quotas on their exports to the United States, in an effort to avert quotas by the Administration or the Congress. Self-imposed quotas, however, have not satisfied me. I have continued to press for adequate pro tection for our textile industry and its more than a million employees. SEGREGATION FIGHT Perhaps the problem that has caused our people the most concern has been the Supreme Court’s anti-segregation decision. I have mov ed to aid our cause in this fight in many directions. The most effec tive action has been the publication of what has come to be called the “Southern Manifesto”. This great document has brought about the South’s first demonotration of unity in our determined fight to win a reversal of this decision, which is contrary to the Constitution of the United States. It has also caused many press media and leaders from other sections of the country to modify their extreme stands against segregation. # ELECTORAL REFORM I have also devoted considerable time toward effecting a reform in our system of electing our President and Vice President. The present undemocratic system fosters bloc voting and machine con trol in the large Northern cities. This has led both major political parties to pick their candidates, write their platforms, and conduct their campaign in an effort to satisfy the whims and fancies of these minority elements. During the past week the Senate voted 48-37 to accept the Daniel- Mundt-Thurmond compromise electoral reform amendment as a sub stitute for the original Daniel plan. Recognizing, however, that we could not obtain the two-thirds majority required for passage of a constitutional amendment, we moved to have the plan recommitted to committee for further study. FORT JACKSON Since coming to Washington, I have held many conference with top Defense Department officials in an effort to have Fort Jackson des ignated as a permanent installation. Recently, the Army agreed to make this great installation a permanent training center. It has been a great privilege and pleasure to serve you since my write-in election in 1954. The trust reposed in me by the people has been deeply appreciate^!. I have tried at all times to reward this trust by exerting my best efforts on behalf of South Carolina and the Nation.

Not so long ago, a dealer in Aachen, Germany, who had acquired it for $200, sold it back for the same amount to its famous owner. The instnunent is worth from 25 to 100 thousand dollars. * * * More than a million cattle and three million sheep get their Rummer forage on public lands.

Harper Potter for s World Mission. Lesson for April 8: Acts 1: 6-8; 2: 22-33. Golden Text: l Cormtbums 15: 57. Nothing is more certain about the second coining of Christ than our ignorance as to when it will be. While some seem quite certain about the time and engage in controversy about it, Jesus told the disciples that only the Father knows the time. The important thing for the disciples was to pre pare for the task he would commit unto them. And he promised that they would receive power when the Holy Spirit should come upon them. And they would be wit nesses unto him. In Jerusalem and Samaria and the uttermost parts of the earth. In his sermon on the day of pen- tecost, Peter gave a brief survey of the gospel story, spoke particu larly of the resurrection, the apos tles bearing witness to it, and called upon his hearers to become witnesses of the great truths that would change the world. It is recorded that three thousand people were added that day to the church, and that God added to it daily such as should be saved. So let us dedicate ourselves more fully to a gospel that is as wide as the dispersion of men and as gra cious as the Lord Jesus who, though he was rich, became poor that we through his poverty might be rich. And for the power that is needed for this task, let us. like the disci ples on the day of pentecost, tarry before the throne of grace.

I REMEMBER” BY THE OLD TIMERS From Mrs. Kathy Kuntz, Car rier, Oklahoma: I was raised in beautiful Tennessee and though I am not so old I remember help ing Dad and Mom shear sheep and helping Mother pick geese to make feather beds and pillows. I have swept floors with brooms made of corn shucks and earded rolls and spun knitting thread to knit wool stockings and gloves which would keep my hands ten der and white despite hoeing in the fields. Also made my own split bonnets to work in. Daddy had eight girls and three boys, but he “banked” on his gals, as he called us, when he wanted things done in a hurry. We gathered walnuts, hickory nuts, and chestnuts in the Fall and thus always had plenty of nuts for Christmas. • • • From Lena Carter, Galena, Kan sas: I have a son, Harmon John Newberry, a retired RR conduc tor, now 68, who was named for his grandfather, Harmon New berry, a gun maker and -a leader in the California Gold Rush in *49. Grandpa Harmon and 75 of his neighbors broke the old “Santa Fe Trail”. Part of them guarded the camp till midnight, the others took over until dawn. The Indians never harmed them as they were really well fixed with guns, wagons, teams, and supplies. The first gun Grandpa Hafmon made somewhere in Oklahoma, near McAllister. “Uncle” Harmon, as he was called in Texas, moved there in 1862. He made one gur there that killed 75 buffalo on one trip on the West Texas plains. (Send contributions to this column to The Old Timer Community Press Serv let, Box 39, Frankfort, Kentucky.)
