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.

Although the British are well
known beefeaters, the average
American can’t be far behind in
total consumption of that food.
Each American consumed an av
erage of 155 pounds of meat
last year. He ate 79 pounds of
beef, 10.2 pounds of veal, 4.6
pounds of lamb and mutton, and
62 pounds of pork.

Gregor Piatigorsky, noted cellist,
lost his 1712 Stradivarius cello to
the Nazis in Paris at the beginning
of World War II. 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.

Rev. Robert H. 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.

diamond, cloverleaf or heart.

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.
