Benson PRESIDENT—NATIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM Searcy, Arkansas WHAT MAKES AMERICA TICK? When Nikita Khrushev walked into a super-market in Los Ange les on his first sight-seeing trip to America he tria^t to hide his am azement, but he couldn’t. He had never seen such a massive display of foodstuff in hii life. He was astounded—'and probably shock ed. He was similarly amazed as he •went about America seeing on all sides the massive productive might of our nation. He doesn’t under stand really why our system pro duces in such great volume. He doesn’t know—and he doesn’t want to know—what makes the Ameri can system tick. But Americans should know, and all the people of the world should know. Then our system would be. safer from the on slaughts of international Com munism and less likely to be de stroyed by our own people through errors of judgment and short sighted actions in governmert. There are give freedoms which provide the dynamics in our Am erican system—freedom to work at the occupation of one’s choice, freedom to dream, freedom to compete, freedom to advance, freedom to invest. Let’s examine each freedom: The Five Freedoms FREEDOM TO WORK. Ameri cans have this free choice of oc cupations. People living in total Socialism or Communism do not have it. It gives us the opportun ity to do what we want to do, and thus we can be happy and more productive in our work. We don’t want a bureaucrat or a commisar telling us to be a lumberjack—if we happen to like the profession of teaching, or if we like the city life and an office job. A great in centive of production, is the sat isfaction and pride that an indi vidual worker gets from doing the things he wants to do. > FREEDOM TO DREAM. Only in an atmosphere of freedom can the total brain capacity of an en tire population be harnessed for progress. Some of the most val uable contributions to our prog ress have come from average Am ericans who put their brains to work in a country where every body is free to try out any idea of contraption. Millions of prod ucts have come to the American market—and behind every new product there has been a free mind dreaming, inquiring, prob ing, and creating. Spur of Competition FREEDOM TO COMPETE. Un der the American system the dreamer doesn’t have a monopoly on producing things. Anybody can go into business and compete with the dreamer. Since the first automobile was produced in Am erica, more than 1,500 companies have produced cars. Most of them failed. The best competitors, the best producers succeeded. Compe tition has kept each auto manu facturer busy trying to outdo the other—and attract more car buy ers. Millions of dollars have gone into research and new manufactur ing techniques. This is true in most industries. Competition has spurred production in all prod ucts. FREEDOM TO ADVANCE. This is the freedom of each pei-- 1 son to improve his position—not on the basis of political maneuv ering, but on the basis of worth in America’s great productive sy stem. Many of the present day in dustrial leaders came up through the ranks of employees. They were ambitious, industrious, en terprising, and free—free to work for advancement. This screening upward of the best has developed the finest industrial and business management in the world. Our technical knowhow is sought af ter in every nation on eartlf. Better Tools FREEDOM TO INVEST. Not only does every American have the privilege of investing his sav ings as he sees fit, the incentive to do so is very strong. This is indicated by the fact that millions of Americans own corporation stocks. The money they invest in industry goes for working capi tal, for building and expanding plants, and for the constantly ex panding development of indus trial tools. The average job in Am erican industry requires an in vestment of more than $12,000— before the job can be created. Better tools are being produced constantly, resulting in higher productivity per worker, better wages and improving products for the consuming public. These are facts every American, young and old, should under stand. The Socialist International and the Communist International are expecting the American peo ple themselves to aid in the de struction of our great, productive system. If we understand how it works, and its great advantages, we can resist the undermining work of these two destructive forces. Tribute Paid To Hunter H. Brown The following tribute to the late Hunter H. Brown was pub lished in the October 23, 1960 is sue of the Guernsey Breeders’ Journal: “South Carolina lost one of her most progressive and capa ble business men in the death of Hunter H. Brown, Newberry, S. C., who passed away on Septem ber 14 in Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Md., at the age of 57. Mr. Brown had been in bad health for some time, and on the advice of his physicians had gone to the hospital several days pre vious to undergo surgery on his heart and lung. Mr. Brown is survived by his widow, Mrs. Trox- elle Wright Brown, one sister, Mrs. Sterne Camp, Memphis, Tenn., and one niece, Mrs. James C. Graves, Spartanburg, S. C. “Mr. Brown was the owner of the Hunter H. Brown Lumber Co. of Strother, S. C, In the late 20s he purchased his first registered Guernseys and started a small dairy farm known as Glen Echo Farm. He has kept a registered Guernsey herd since making his original purchases. Mr. Brown had a great influence on dairying in his area, and was a leader in the formation of a milk process ing plant to sell dairy production. He also developed a market for milk and surplus cattle, as well as helping to build one for his fellow dairymen. For the past eight years he had been a produc er of Golden Guernsey milk for Edisto Farms Dairy, Columbia. “Mr. Brown’s many, friends throughout the nation " will be saddened to learn of his pass ing.” Local Board Clerk Honored Mrs. Ruby D. Trice, clerk of the local board for Newberry County, who completed 10 years of service on August 14, 1960, was presented a length'of service award by Col onel Donald H. Collins, State Di rector of Selective Service. The State Director lauded Mrs. Trice for her faithfulness and loyalty to the local board and State Headquarters during a per iod which has not always been marked with the most ideal con ditions. Colonel Collins said, “All too often the general public is slow to recognize the outstanding service received from its public servants, and I believe this is par ticularly true insofar as local board clerks are concerned. While these clerks are compensated fed eral employees, they devote many hours of their own time to helping solve the problems of our young men who may be preparing to en ter the armed forces. For this their country is grateful.” Party Be For Pre-Schoolers There will be a party for all pre-school children of Newberry County on Saturday afternoon, 3:30 p.m. at the Youth Center, sponsored by the Pre-School Mothers Clubs. All children are asked to come in costumes. The party will end at about 5 p.m. Robert T. Vickery, a sophomote son of the Rev. and Mrs. T. H. Vickery of Newberry, was elect ed Newberry College representa tive of the Methodist Student Movement of ^outh Carolina. The election was held at the Confer ence of all Methodist Students of South Carolina at Camp Harmony in Manning. \ Ok* yS/ NOT READY FOR COLLEGE t JUST YET! County Teachers At Meeting The teachers of Newberry Coun ty attended a district meeting of the South Carolina Education As sociation in Greenwood on Thurs day, Oct. 20. The theme of the program was “Education—South Carolina’s In vestment in the Future.” E. M. Culpepper, executive secretary of the South (Carolina Administra tion’s Association; Roy C. McCall, Jr. of Easley, director of the S. C. Association of School Boards; and Dr. William Kiauber, Greenwood County Chairman of the Govern or’s Conference, were the speak ers. Mr. Culpepper said only one ma jor change in the S. S. legislaUve program of last year had been approved for this year. That change called for reducing the classroom loads in’ the first through the sixth grades from 36 pupils to 30 pupils instead of to 34. The number one goal of the association*, he continued, is a second consecutive raise in state aid for teachers’ salaries. To help the state education pro gram, Dr. Kiauber suggested a change in the tax structure, a re assessment of all property in the state, more equality in “kick- backs,” increased county tax lev ies for education, upgrading of teachers and administrators, and educating the public to the need for school funds. Mr. McCall, speaking on re sults of the Governor’s Confer ence, pointed out that the confer ence had, among other things, en dorsed Governor Hollings’ pro gram of consolidation of four state school commissions and other im provements. In closing, Dr. Kiauber said dup lication of efforts in state institu tions and getting the state depart ment out of the realm of politics are two of the state’s problems which most need solving. fm Broom Dies; Had Sister Here CLINTON. — Clyde Edward Broom, 42, resident of the Clinton Hotel, and an employe of Bald win Motor Co., died early Monday morning in the Veteran’s Hospital.
