NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, MARCH 17, Garden Club Hears Report Of South Atlantic Meet leagues because of the basic respect which many Senator* have for the principle of free debate, a Senate tradition which haa served our country well on numerous occasions. The mere existence of this tradition—- cloture has only been invoked 4 time*—ha* accomplished two great things for the country: First, by discouraging extreme legislation in r.ny direction, and preventing violent swings from left to right, it promotes sta bility in government. Second, by giving minoritiea a defensive shield against tyranny, it dis courages the arising of tensions and situations which could, and probably would, lead to various and frequent form* of civil strife, perhaps actual civil war, Thla tradition la further proot of the infinite wladom which our Founding Fat hern denumat rated In netting up our structure of government. They had only re cently freed themselvea from tyranny and oppression, and they realised that tyranny In any form—whether It be by one man or an unrestrained mn- jority—la ruthless and harsh. Thst Is why they wrote Into the Constitution In numerous place* the requirement for a two-thirda —or thiee-fourtha In some case* —rather than a simple majority vote before some types of pro poned actions could become binding on all the people. IN RETTING UP its rules of procedure, the Senate followed Thoms* Jefferson's advice to protect the minority against the tyranny of the unrestrained ma jority. For many year* there was no limitation at all on de bate, In 1917. however, Presi dent Wilson, once an advocate of free debate, bad his will thwarted on hi* armed neutral ity ship bill by a vocal minority. Following thla debate, Rule 33 was approved. 81 NCR A determined effort is being made to apply the politi cal whiplash against the South and our numbers are few in the Senate, we must use every means at our command to pro tect the interest of our people— and ultimately the interest of the Nation. Thla ia why we elected to talk rather than to surrender to tyranny. Our de cision is beginning to pay divi dends, and 1 hope we will ulti mately prevail. Sincerely, First street.

The March Sheeting of the New berry Garden Club wee held at the home of Mrs. E. G. Able. Mre. J. A. Burton Jr. was associate host ess. Lovely arrangements of daf fodils, pussywillow, pink perfec tion camellias and purple hya cinths lent a bright note through out the YOoma, in contrast to the wintry soone <0010140 where traces of the recent sleet and freeae were still invyevidence. A coffee hour wae enjoyed prior to the business session. Mrs. C. I. Youmane, vice-proii- dent presided. The members were happy over the improvement of both Mrs. H. B. Senn and Mrs. Claude Smith, and though still hospitalised they hope to return to their homes soon. Officers and committee chairmen gave reports and Mrs. Youmans thanked each one for their yearly reports which were used in compiling the annual president's report. She thanked Mrs. James Coggins in particular for her publicity of club activities thru means of radio. Mrs. Coggins reported that "Litterbug" infor mation is broadcast three times daily over the local station. It was of great interest to the club that Miss Donna Rook re celved the first place award in the Conservation exhibit at the Newberry High School Science Fair. Donna has attended the con servation camp under sponsorship of the Garden Club of South Caro lina. The following announcements were made. The East Piedmont District meeting will be held In Spartanburg March 16. The State Convention will be in Anderson April 8 and 9. Mrs. L, C. Floyd and Mrs. T. J. Eskridge were el ected delegates. The Union Gard en Club prill sponsor a Garden Pilgrimage Tour in Union, March .11. This is the-jinly tour in the state this year.** The program formally arrang ed for the morning waa a Tour of several of the members gardens. Due to the Inclement weather it was necessary to cancel this and the program consisted of hi-lighta of the 87th Annual Convention of the South Atlantic Region held in Boca Raton, Florida, Feb. 38- March l.

Mrs. Coggins reported on the business meetings, various luncheons, tsas and banqueta. She stated that Mra. Baker, State President, represented her state ably and gave her report in a very concise manner. She gave the in vocation at one of the sessions and was accorded many other cour tesies during ths'Convantion. Mrs. Youmans, a National Ufa Mem ber, was also recognised and at tended a luncheon-honoring this group. Mre. Rook told of the beautiful flowers, foliage and spectacular arrangements. One of the most outstanding ones being displayed at the breakfast she attended on “Cons#; ration.” Another \ very unique and enjoyable panel was a flower show, M A Garden Club Matting Portrayed In Flower Ar rangement.” This wae arranged and discussed by a committee of members of National and Regional Flower Show Schools. Mra. Rook aleo told of the newest in flower aranging—the Parabolic Design, which ia very striking. Also, the abstract design, depleting "ex tract!ng the most Important ele menta, your moat Important con tribution to the sum of things is yourself.” The horticulture Sec tion of the show displayed rare and beautiful spectmanU, the theme being “Put gardening back into garden clubs.” A few colored slide* were shown of tha fabulous hotel, grounds and Bay which is often spoken of as “the most beautiful resort esUU In all ths world.” Mrs. Griffith, horticulture chair man, gave very timely ntnU, stressing the importance of being careful about pruning tinea the recent freest, examining the roots of planU raised by freestng which drying winds can injure, particularly aaaltas. They dry out quickly so should be watched and if neceaaary watered. Do not walk on froien grass. The blades split and break. Do not spada fcbil until pliable. The meeting was then turned over to the incoming president, Mrs, L. 0. Floyd. She very grac iously thanked the members for electing her to the presidency and asked for continued coopera tion, She then read her committees for ths year. Mrs. Rook was the lucky win* nor of a prise. TU^«5 CHANNEL.... AUGUSTA • GBOItGIA SUNDAY.

The first, of course, was the re sounding defeat handed the lib erals in their attempt to out off Southern Senators from further debate on the issue. The second was the Senate's defeat of attempts to restore the old “Part 8’' of the 1957 Civil Rights Act which we de feated three years ago. IT IS MY opinion that ths South is in s much better position today aa a rseult of these two victories than it waa at the outset of ths de bate. • • • THE SOUTHERN SENA TORS are prepared to carry farwusd ths debate as we have dcnWr for the past several weeks. Attempts to cut off de bate by invoking cloture are not'fair and certainly are not democratic. In the first in stance, there are 50 civil rights and Federal voting controls amendments pending in the Senate, many of which have been filed within the last few day«t and upon which titers has been held no debate. ’ THERE ARE 99 Senators immediately concerned with all these proposals. If each Senator speaks only 10 min utes on each proposal, it would take approximately 825 hours of debate w rough ly 35 days of round-the-clock sessions. If the Senate were to convene for normal 12- hour sessions, it would take approximately 70 days for the Senate to hear each Sen ator. LOOKING BEYOND the amendments and bills on the floor of the Senate, we find there are 66 bills dealing with civil rights matters in several Senate Committees. In Addi tion, there are 110 bills on civil rights matters in tha various Committees and Subcommittees of the House. In all, there are over 200 civil rights proposals under consideration somewhere in the Congress in one form, shape or another. IT WAS WITH these sta tistics that I argued against cloture and said to tho Sen ate: “WE WOULD BE forced by thi* cloture petition to take up and consider for voting, meas ures which have not oven been discussed on tho Senate Floor. This, to me, is a moat intoler able position in which to be placed. To apply cloture at this point and cut off debate would set the stage for any minority group in tho Senate henceforth to be dictated to and tiraded against by whatever amalga mated majority may conspire a similar plot in tho future. THE MAN In the street would have more freedom of speech than those in the Sen ate whom he haa elected to enact legislation thst gov erns and controls his life. o T APPEAL to other Sena tors to oppose this cloture mo- ion and prevent entangling the Senate in this snarl which would put a gag in the mouth of Senators and silence the people's only echo in this rhamber.” •eheSule Suhjert to Last Mtaete Chant** an* OovveeUoax. the Newberry Court House Door, within the uiual hours of public sales.
