Spending Consequences
Fiscal problems are plaguing
<mr governments in this country
all levels—federal, * state, and
local. Government spending at all
three levels, especially on the part
of the federal government, has
aaored to astronomical heights.
Taxes are already unbearable to
many, and they tend to stifle pri
vate initiative. We are plunging
further and further into debt. At
the same time, the evil of infla
tion, which is no respecter of pock-
ctbooks, is robbing our purchas
ing power day by day. The root
of these fiscal problems stems di
rectly from the popular political
gimmick of trying to “give che
people something for nothing.”
What too many have not realized
folly in the past is that the gov
ernment—whether it be federal,
state, or local—can give nothing
but that which it first takes from
the people. Thank goodness, how
ever, the vast majority of the peo
ple are no longer being deluded
by this political trick, which many
prefer to call “liberalism” but in
actuality is no less than social-
jsm. I have prepared the follow
ing figures which tell a very
shocking story which should be of
concern to every American.

Matter
of Patriotism
Sensible government spending
may be considered old fashioned
by some, just as it now appears
that patriotism is about to be
thrown by the wayside. We spent
two days in the Senate last week
debating a proposal which did not
even merit consideration by the
Senate. Under the National De
fense Education Act passed last
year, persons who accept grants or
loans under the program must
first execute an oath of allegiance
to the United States and swear
that they do not belong to a com
munist organization. The Senate
Labor Committee reported to the
Senate floor a bill to repeal the
allegiance and affidavit require
ments.
Federal $ 7.2 $ 84.0 1066
State 3.9 22.0 464
Local 5.3 25.0 372
I can see no reason why anyone
should object to pledging his loy
alty to his country if he wishes to
share in special benefits offered
by the government or to serve in
a position of trust or responsibili
ty in the government. In fact,
every person employed by the
government must now execute a
similar oath of office. Every
member of my office staff has
done so. I am glad to report that
the Senate, after several close
votes, finally voted 49-42 to re
commit the bill to the Labor Com
mittee for—I hope—posterity.
Soviets Applaud Strauss Defeat
A news dispatch from Moscow
last week quoted Soviet Deputy
Premier Mikoyan as being very
joyful over the Senate’s recent re
jection of Commerce Secretary
Lewis Strauss. He said the Secre
tary had prevented 12,000 tons of
steel pipe from being exported to
Russia, adding: “Pm not usually
in agreement with the (U. S.) Se
nate, but we were pleased when
the Senate disapproved his nomi
nation.” Mr. Mikoyan’s comments
confirm my opinion that the Sen
ate did a great injustice to a com
petent and loyal American.

BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
As a kid I took an excursion
to Charleston to see the ocean.
I left Columbia Saturday night
late and got back about mid
night Sunday for $1.50, including
the ferry and trolly ride to Isle
of Palms.
That was a pretty big expendi
ture then. But my folks let me go
when I was about 12. I was sorry
all of the travel was at night, be
cause I couldn’t see anything
much along the way. I wanted to
be hanging out of the window,
watching those drivers roll, and
waving at the folks we passed.
Having nothing to do, I fell a-
sleep. I awoke as we were rumb
ling over some crossings, as we
were entering Charleston. I start
ed eating the breakfast I had tak
en and finished on the ferry after
a hack ride through town.
Most of their married life has been
spent in Newberry.
They have nine children. They
are Mrs. Mattie B. Dorsett, Ma
con, Georgia; Mrs. Hilliard J.
Mitchell, Joanna; Mrs. Katherine
J. Bannister, Columbia; Mrs.
Claudia J. Miller, Greenville;
Miss Mozelle Jackson of Colum
bia; Jimmie and Porter Jackson,
Newberry; Edgar Jackson, Eas
ley, and Melvin Jackson of Miami,
Florida and Newberry.
Mrs. Claude F. Lathan return
ed to her home on Main St. last
week after several weeks visit
with her daughter, Mrs. T. L.
Bridges in Rock Hill. She was re
cuperating from an eye operation
she underwent in Charlotte, N. C.
on June 19. She is reported to be
getting along nicely.

The ferry ride was a thrill, as I
was that something" like 10 milk |
trolly car ride to the Island. When
we got there, and walked through
the old pavilion, I first beheld
the ocean! That was the most
overpowering thing I’ve ever
seen. The ocean! The first wonder
of the world!
I was scared a bit at first and
wouldn’t go very near that rest
less thing. But, seeing others lunge
right in, I ventured up closer and
let the breakers smoothe out there
on the sand and run over my feet.
It. felt good and soon I felt at
ease. Then I got a bathing suit
and joined the others. What a
day I had! Although my complex
ion is dark and I don’t sunburn
easily, I did burn a bit on the
shoulders and they felt strangely
hot on the way back that night.
We stayed until the last car and
ferry left to catch our train. It
was full moon and the sun set be
hind some low clouds in the west.
The moon came up, laying its
glittering road of fire across the
sea. That was the mosti, beautiful
sight I had ever seen. And I re
member sitting on that side of
the street car, as we were leaving
that enchanted spot, so I could get
one final longing, look at that
spectacle of a clear full moon
coming up out of the sea. And to
this day, I don’t know of a scene
on earth to beat that.
