THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1968 THE NEWBERRY SUN Garden Club Has Workshop On Arrangements The Newberry Garden Club met on Wednesday morning, March 5 in the Wessels Library conference room at Newberry College for a Flower Arrangement Workshop, with Mrs. H. B. Senn and Mrs. Claude Smith, hostesses. There was a delightful social half-hour before the meeting, dur ing which the hostesses served ^delicious refreshments. Mrs. Richard L. Baker, presi dent, called the meeting to order. She stated that all business would be postponed until a called meet ing later in the month, so that more time could be devoted to the program for the morning. She introduced the program chairman, Mrs. Louis C. Floyd, who in turn introduced the speaker and direc tor of the flower worshop, Mrs. Jackson Burnett of Spartanburg. Mrs. Burnett was assisted by Mrs. R. M. Whitmire, also of Spartan burg. Both are nationally accredit ed flower show judges and Mrs. Whitmire was called “Spartan burg’s perennial sweepstakes award winner” in the arrangement field. Mrs. Burnett made a short talk on the principles and types of flower arrangements, and discuss ed the ones on display. She em phasized the importance of de sign in an arrangement, discussed the various lines that may be used, and stated that the asymet- rical triangle, which comes from the Japanese school, is the most perfect form for an arrangement. For the next hour, club mem bers worked on their own arrange ment, using the materials they had brought. Individual help and constructive criticism were given by Mrs. Burnett and Mrs. Whit mire. The large number of charm ing arrangements proved the suc cess of th6 workshop. Mrs. George Brockenbrough was winner of the door prize, gladioli bulbs. Summer To Head SAR Chapter T.

C. By TOM ANDERSON in Farm and Ranch Magaizne The nation owes a great debt of gratitude to Arkansas’ able, hon est, Senator John McClellan for the fearless and relentless way he has exposed union racketeers. But the Senate Committee can neither enforce the law nor prosecute the j guilty. That’s up to us. Let’s de mand action, now! Union gangsterism, racketeering and monopoly is rife throughout the country. We need to strength en Taft-Hartley by outlawing compulsory unionism and second ary boycotts. And by making un ions subject to anti-trust laws. But, even more than new laws, we Rev. Edgar L. Halfacre, Rt. 2. Mrs. Lillian B. Hendrix, Rt. 4. Mrs Mary K. James, 2096 Riv er St. C. W.

Still is. OP Dave Beck, the retiring head of the Teamsters Union, misused funds left in the will of a friend who left his widow’s funds in the care of Beck. WBich makes him at least part of a horse. Beck, who has been indicted for grand lar ceny, went from union truck driv er to union millionaire. The fed eral government is now trying to find out how. Beck is accused of income tax evasion in addition to stealing large sums of union mon ey. His son, and accomplice, has already been sentenced. If both don’t get long prison sentences the thieves in every jail in the country should demand a new trial. Beck retired with union hon ors at $50,000 a year and unlimit ed expenses, for himself and his wife, for life. A W'ise Child Knows His Own Father Dave Jr., took the Fifth Amend ment when asked by Senate inves tigators to give his father’s name. I don’t blame him. In our toWn, Nashville, most of the top brass in the Teamsters are ex-convicts. And that’s not unusual in Teamsters Unions. In vestigators have reported 173 cases of union violence in Tenn essee and nearby areas in the past four years, causing property dam age of more than $2 million. Only eight of the 173 indictments have been solved. Why? Mainly because m M t rs St Helen Reid, 1806 College ' the *“ w enforcement agencies from ” I ■ A- ■« »~V ■ ’ A. _ _ .A. A A » A » ■ * A- .A.

They’re afraid of their political lives, their contin ued good health, or both. The Republican Administration sent federal troops into Little Rock where law and order had not broken down and refused to send troops to Kohler, Wisconsin which was in a state of seige by hired union hoodlums with local law enforcement agencies refusing to function. The reason in both cases and both places was votes. Criminals have gone unmolested throughout the nation as they op enly waged mob warfare against law-abiding businesses and against “unconvinced” laborers. For in stance, the wife of one Nashville trucking company official was telephoned by anonymous callers at night threatening to dynamite her out of bed some night, or bring her husband home on a slab. unless the company closed down. After his three or four barbers had voted not to join the union, a Nashville barber’s shop was des troyed by dynamite. The barber testified before the Senate Com mittee that he couldn’t get police help in ^topping the continuing threats and violence because the police “did not want to mess with labor trouble.” Numerous other bombings, goon- squad knifings and assorted viol ence have occurred—some with witnesses—and the Nashville sher iff’s office and police have main tained a bored, boys-will-be-boys attitude unaccompanied by arrests or prosecutions. Throughout the land of the free, unions have de liberately destroyed thousands of businesses, backed by politicians in the Presidency, Congress, the Supreme Couht, right down to the policeman’s beat. Let Me Call You Sweetheart It’s hard to get as low as some of the union leaders. But the bus inessmen who conspire with the union thugs to destroy the compe tition gets almost as low. In any racket, somebody has to play ball with the racketeer to make it go. Many businessmen have turned yellow, for greenbacks; have given in to corruption to keep from closing down; have been a party to extortion to keep competition from getting ahead; have made “sweetheart contracts” in self protection. (A sweetheart contract is one in which a crooked, spine less businessman pays off a union leader under the table to double- cross his own union members.) How long, America, O how long will we elect two-bit politicians like Tennessee’s Governor Clem ent who flits across the nation running for Vice President at our expense while lawlessness reigns in the shadow of the Capitol dome? How long will we stomach self--seeking men who’ll send troops to Mount Pleasant, where union goons have the town under seige and helpless local law en forcement officers plead for help? How long are we going to stand for public servants who count the prospective votes before enforcing the law ? Aside from the law, businessmen have no possible “equalizer” avail able to fight gangsters. Few com pany presidents carry their own acid pots, guns, or switchblade knives. And there’s no business men’s Bill of Rights to provide government care and hospitaliza tion even for “service-connected” disabilities resulting from union labor’s gangster-style war. Farmer-Labor Parity “Farmers ought to organize,” say some promoters of “give us parity or we’ll starve you.” If farms were unionized, you could n’t get your crop out of the fields without endangering your life and property unless you were a mem ber in good standing. Even if you did, it would be “hot cargo” which the union trucks would re fused to haul. While labor has a minimum wage, and maximum hours, farmers have maximum hours and minimum wages. But the way for fanners to get equal ity is not through parity of rac keteering hut through ending the socialist-labor monopoly, at the polls.
