Seek To Stop Local Trains
COLUMBIA—Soathem Railway
Tuesday asked the South Carolina
Public Service Commission for
authority to end the more than
SdOfOGO-a-year out-of-pocket loss
involved in running two passenger
trains that few people want to
ride. The train for which dis
continuance i s sought runs
through Newberry about nine in
the morning en route to Columbia
and at about 10 p.m. en route to
Greenville.
In a hearing on the railway’s
petition for discontinuance of
Traint 17 and 18 between Colum
bia and Greenville, A. B. Gleason,
the railway’s supervisory statisti
cian, sketched for the Commis
sion a discouraging statistical pic
ture of the results of . continuing
to operate a service that has out-
erlin, H. K. Southerlin, and H. 0.

lived the demand for it.
During the 12-month period
ended October 31, 1960, the total
income of the tw o trains from pas
sengers, mail and express am
ounted to $121,759. But since the
railway spent $214,713 for train
crew wages, fuel, maintenance of
equipment and other direct costs
of operation, the net result was a
loss of $92,954.
Manned by a rail crew of six
and a number of postal, express
and Pullman employees, each
train carried an average of seven
passengers per trip. Why so few
passengers rode Trains 17 and 18
was graphically explained by G.
V. Bayliss, a Southern special in
vestigator.
He called attention to the state’s
network of excellent highways, the
number of passenger automobiles
(one to every three persons) re
gistered in the counties served by
these trains, and the frequent bus
schedules by various routes be
tween Greenville and Columbia.
Leason L. Waters, manager -of
transportation services, assured
the Commission that the mail and
express handled on Trains 17 and
18 (which do not produce enough
revenue to offset the decline in
the numbt* of passengers) could
go as com uiently not only by
other trains but by highway if
necessary.
In testimony supported by on-
the-spot photographs, he describ
ed the equipment of the two trains
as “well above average” for local
passenger service, clean and well
maintained, with air conditioning
and reclining seats.
But the statistics were inescap
able. During the decade of the
1950’s while the number of pas
sengers carried by Southern Rail
way generally decreased from 3
million a year in 1951 to little
more than a million a year in
1959, the number of passengers
using these two trains dwindled
even more alarmingly.
In 1951 there were 27,980 pas
sengers on Trains 17 and 18 and
the passenger revenue was $118,-
544. By 1959 the number of pas
sengers carried during the year
was down to 4,080 and the pas
senger revenue had shrunk to
$14,554.
Southern can take a hint. Now
it wants to take off these two
trains.

American Might,
N Soviet Myth
Jameson G. Campaigne, distin
guished editor of the Indianapolis
Star, has written a book worthy
of the attention of every Ameri
can. It is entitled American Might
And Soviet Myth (Regnery, 3.95).
It is a powerful contribution to
the enlightenment of the Ameri
can people on the facts of the
war for survival in which our na
tion is engaged. Mr. Campaigne
is convinced we. are losing the
war and the Communists are win
ning it. He documents a powerful
indictment of our U.S. foreign
policy — its lack of traditional
American character, its continu
ing aid to the enemy.
“In the earliest years of our
existence," writes Mr. Campaigne,
“we established certain principles
in dealing with other govern
ments. While history has made
the application of these principles
different in technique, it has not
outmoded the principles them
selves, nor can it permanently
alienate them from our national
character, without damaging that
character beyond recovery or re
pair. . .”
George Washington’s Code
He cites the character of for
eign policy enunciated by Presi
dent George Washington: Ob
serve good faith and justice to
ward all nations. Cultivate peace
and harmony with all. Religion
and morality enjoin this conduct. .
It will be worthy of a free, en-f
lightered and, at no distant per
iod, a great nation to give to
mankind the magnanimous and
£oo novel example of a people al
ways guided by an exalted jus-
Chappells Community Center tice and benevolence. Who can
Smyrna Community, Mrs. Frank doubt that in the course of time
to it. . .”
Mr. Campaigne says, “Until'the
United States begins again to op
erate its own foreign policy in the
interests of its own people, and to
follow its own historic principles
and to re-establish its authentic
national character it will continue
to fail. The Soviet Union will con
tinue to win the cold war. Until
our policy becomes a United States
policy, no United States govern
ment can hope to succeed in
matching the determination and
ruthlessness of the Soviet Mas-

U. S. Is Mighty
Mr. Campaigne’s book, as the
title suggests, assesses the
“myth” of Soviet might which
has seemingly caused the United
States to retreat, to give ground,
to complain but finally accept the
continuing advances of Commun
ism in nation after nation—at a
time, he contends, when a deter
mination on our part and a show
of our unmatched power would
have halted the Reds.
“Too many people in the United
States,” he says, “have surrender
ed weakly to the Soviet psycho
logical offensive. Only twice in
recent years have we actually
called a Soviet bluff — once in
Quemoy and once in Lebanon. On
both occasions the enemy backed
down. He will back down every
time—in Berlin, the middle east,
the Far East, anywhere. We have
only to knock the chip off his
shoulder, and he is suddenly quiet.
Reds Run From Fight
Khrushchev and the other Com
munist leaders, Mr. Campaigne
says, “know who has the stronger
force; economic, political, ethi
cal, military, and every other. It
is we who are not sure. With
great cunning (Khrushchev) has
exploited our growing weakness
■){ character to create in us this
dangerous uncertainty. It is time
we saw ourselves as the enemy
sees us, formidable and in'fact
unbeatable.”
He says in the conclusion of
his provocative book: “As long
and liberty, we will remain on the
defensive, and the Communists
will keep on winning. If we want
ed that sort of peace at Quemoy,
we could have had it at the price
of surrender. We can have peace
in Berlin at the price of surren
der. We can end the whole cold
war at the price of surrender.
There is only one reason for carry
ing on the cold war. That is to
preserve our liberty and extend
all human. liberty. If liberty is
important, nothing .should deter
us. Our foreign policy must' bd
based on this concept. Until it is,
we will not even begin to suc
ceed.” -

In South Carolina today, beer
is linked more and more to the
state’s economy and way of life.
Revenue from this beverage of

part in helping the state provide

use their share of this revenue for
many worthwhile causes. And the
