V V PAGE FOUR THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA Looking A. head \ ... by Dr. George S. Benson PRESIDENT—NATIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM Searqr, Arkansas ALL-OUT OFFENSIVE NEEDED It cannot be disputed now that the leaders of Soviet Communism have fooled most of the leaders, the diplomats, the journalists and | the people of the United States,] time and time again, with disas-j trous results. We keep going j back to the conference table with them although we have never won a “negotiated” victory; we have always lost something. Most of our people have been apathetic, unafraid of the continuing ad vances of world Communism. A few outstanding statesmen in the free world are beginning to courageously speak out. They are motivated by a genuine fear that, within the lifetime of every leader of this column Com munism may triumph over the world. General Carlos Romulo, Phil ippine ambassador to the United States, warns of this possibility in a vitally important article in the November issue of Reader’s Digest. Out of his vast experience in war, diplomacy, politics, gov ernment, he sets forth some sound steps which he urges the Presi dent of the United States and all free-world leaders to take.: Must Defeat Reds “To settle for a world half- slave, half-free is the surest road to surrender,” he says. “The new barbarians cannot be bought off or contained. They must be defeated. This can still be done without a nuclear showdown—by an all-out offensive in the fields of propaganda, economic aid, pub lic education, and, in general, fighting fire with fire in every part of the globe. “We can yet drive the Reds in their turn onto the defensive. There are plenty of weaknesses and vulnerable spots in the Com munist camp—and we can exploit every one of them. We can turn the Communists’ own weapons, including infiltration and subver sion ,against them. We can create crisis’ in their home territory, instead of waiting passively for crisis in ours. We can train spec ialists in every branch of cold warfare instead of relying on ama teurs. We can keep alive the hope of release from servitude among our enslaved brothers under the Communist yoke. . . A Global Program “A global campaign of public education should be mounted on a scale to outmatch the Communists. It must be resourceful, aggres sive, unafraid and prepared to turn their own weapons of subver sion and infiltration against them. But this will never be done until the necessity of defeating Com munism—defeating, mind you, not resisting — is recognized. Only then can you begin to tell the truth as uninhibitedly and effec tively as the enemy tells lies.” General Romulo, in his article, reviews the disastrous defeats suffered in our diplomatic actions. “Western leaders keep paying blackmail in concessions and small surrenders,” he says . . . “The United States (for instance) roll ed out the red carpet for Anastas Mikoyan: a kind of preview of the later Khruschev visit. Not long before, an American plane had been electronically lured into Soviet Armenia (Mikoyan’s na tive area) and 17 American fliers were lost. The American govern ment had documentary proofs of Soviet guilt, but withheld them until Mikoyan left, in order not to spoil hos goodwill tour. How much good did it do?” Still Losing “Incorrigibly hopeful despite everything,” he notes, “The Un ited States twice renev/ed the moratorium on nuclear testing, thus giving the Kremlin exactly what it wanted—a test ban /with out inspection. Even now there is hesitation about ending the mora torium, though the protracted ne gotiations have yielded only frus trations for the United States and propaganda victories for the Sov iet Union.” It is going to require the com bined efforts of the citizens of the United States to change the course of our government. Our leaders in decision-making posi tions are being influenced by pow erful forces, to continue the pro gram of “peaceful coexistence’ and ‘containment” which has been so disastrous for us, so suc cessful for the Communists. It is the midnight hour for citizens action! Get the facts. Read the Romulo article. Then write the President-elect and the leaders of both political parties demanding an offensive for victory and an end to appeasement and retreat. The freedom and progress of all mankind are at stake. If we are going to win in the end \ye must win the cold war. HOSPITAL PATIENTS NEWBERRY COUNTY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL Pierce L.

America’s most famous natural wonderlands— Okefenokee Swamp—“Land of the Trembling Earth.' Waycross, center city of South Georgia is also the point of entry for the playgrounds and recrea tion centers of Florida. In its own right, it is a city of diversified tor terests and attractions. Its name signifies its strategic position— where “Ways Cross.” In Colonial days it was the hub of stage coach roads and pioneer trails. Later the Old Plant System and the Brunswick and Western crossed here, giving birth to a modem railroad network. A city of nearly 20,000 popula tion Waycross manufactures such products as shoes, cigars, boxes, machinery, beekeeper supplies and plaster novelties. Processed products include meat, pecans, honey, hides and furs, pickles, forestry products and naval stores. Okefenokee Swamp Park em braces an area known to the aboriginal Seminole Indians as “land of the Trembling Earth,” because of the quaking nature of its soil. It is the largest preserved fresh-water swampland in the United States. Its 700-square mile expanse of wilderness gives rise to the romantic Suwannee River immortalized by Stephen Foster’s folksong “Old Folks at Home” and the beautiful St Mary’s river. Rising in the depths of the swamp, the Suwannee flows to the Gulf of Mexico; the St Mary’s winds its way to the At lantic Ocean. An inviolate wildlife sanctuary, Okefenokee Swamp Park is the home of bear, deer, bob-cats, alligators, otters, aquatic birds and myriad creatures protected from guns, traps and the relent less advance of civilization. Okefenokee Swamp Park is being preserved in its natural state for posterity, the policies of the Park adhering to stri con servation practices. Hunting and trapping are forbidden, to keeping with the wise policy of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Fishing is approved only with approved guides. WASHINGTON AND '-SMALL BUSINESS By C. WILSON HARDER The United States Post Office is quietly studying possible action on the anti-monopoly front which if it takes action, could go a long way into alle viating one vicious situation. * * * It would be quite humorous, too, if thej Post Office, not charged with enforc ing anti trust laws, did take action in an area in which the Federal Trade Com mission, spe- c i f i c a 11 y c. W. Harder chargei'l with this responsibil ity, has failed to act. * * * In the constant drive of a few big packers and manufacturers to eliminate regional competi tion, bigger competitions for prizes are being launched. * * * The big prizes are often big, such as a new home, a trip abroad f ir two, new cars, et al. * * * In fact, postal authorities are quietly questioning those who judge the entries in these con tests to determine how much skill, and how muen luck, en ters into deciding the winners. If the winners are- determined largely by chance, then it is against postal regulations for magazine-', other publications entering 1!ie mails to carry the details on a game of chance. * * * This element of chance fac tor injected by the Post Office Is interes ing. Let it be sup posed that a mythical product named Crunchies decides io on a contest. put Now if the makers of Crunchies decide they have fooled around with local com petitors long enough and now is the time to drive them off the retail shelves, they might very well dream n p a contest, with huge prizes gi en to those who send in to them, with a box top, in 25 words or less, stating “I like Crunchies be cause . . . .” * * * This kind of a contest, adver tised heavily enough in all magazines, et al, can easily bring in a million entries. * * * Now first of all, it is hard to imagine any manufacturer paying for the manhours neces sary to carefully evaluate a million entries. But this factor is even more important. * * * It is safe to assume that out of a million entries, at least 5 or 10 thousand will be “I like Crunchies because they’re really crunchy,” or some other slogan that will win. * * * After all, there is a limit to the variety of things that can be said about most products, and it is certain that whatever is picked as the winner bit of language, thousands of the con testants sent in the same thing. * * * Thus, in any given contest of this type, there must assuredly be some element of chance em ployed in deciding which one of the writers of the line “I like Crunchies because they are really crunchy” gets the all expense world tour for two. Obviously the company is not going to give 10,000 free trips away. Thus, it would appear, the Post Office is on the trail of ~ . cry hot issue. r.al Federation cf Independent Nov. 30: J.

Horace L. Tilghman Jr., of Sel lers said the transformation of these lands into productive tim- berland acres would invigorate the entire South Carolina economy. “Forest industries, along with government forestry agencies, have realized this problem for many years,” said Tilghman. “Much has been done in giving aid to landowners, advising them to get idle and lazy lands into pro duction. The response has been very rewarding, and it showed the need for easily understood in formation available to every land- owner. With this in mind, the South Carolina Forest Industries Com mittee, with cooperation of federal and state forestry agencies, pre pared a new booklet entitled, “Busy Acres in South Carolina.” The booklet is a simple how-to-do it publication, listing basic tree farming practices that will help the landowner to get his timber- land into full production. Some 40,000 copies of the book let will be distributed to landown ers in South Carolina. In other states where the project has been launched, the response has been tremendous, Tilghman said, which proves landowners are interested in their woodlots, and, if given the opportunity, will practice better forest management. Busy Acres is a. program of American Forest Products Indus tries, which also sponsors the Tree Farm System and the Keep Am erica Green program.
