COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS
" i
The finest magazine published by South Carolina enter
prises, as I see them are “Live Wires” of the South Carolina
Electric & Gas company, the largest South Carolina enter
prise, with an investment of three hundred million dollars,
or more. That magazine enjoys the whole-hearted support
of the President, Mr. S. C. McMeekin, and the excellent edi
torship of Mr. S. E. Wiemer.
. The Joanna Way is the magazine of the Joanna Cotton
Mills and it is inspired and liberally supported by Mr. Walter
Regnery, the very modest but effective head of the great
mills. The manager of the magazine is Mr. James P. Sloan,
and he has a large staff of capable associates.
The latest issue of the Joanna Way has a handsome por
trait of Jefferson Davis on the cover.
While looking over the Joanna Way I observe that, in
spite of the hard struggle of the textile plants the great
Joanna Mills paid as a bonus to employees a hundred and
thirty thousand dollars for “cooperative efforts of manage
ment and employees to keep Joanna competitive”. As I re
call, this mammoth mill has paid a substantial bonus every
year (except one) since the great William H. Regnery as
sumed control.
The Regnerys have graciously and generously invited, en
couraged, and promoted the most cordial and cooperative
spirit throughout the great plant.
Sometimes, even today, we hear demagogues take a crack
at great enterprises; I think I may say that such managers
as S. C. McMeekin and Walter Regnery are held in esteem
and affection by their thousands of co-workers.
I quote an article on the National Income tax:
“Why do we believe income taxes must be abolished?
Well, let’s just take some specific examples from the way
it is applied and you will see why.
Back in 1958 a Gary (Indiana) school teacher bitj^rly
complained because her salary was $3,550.50 instead of $3,-
550. Why didn’t she want to be paid the extra 50c? Because
when she made out her tax on the short form she discovered
that extra 50c cost her an additional $10 in income taxes!
She found she was in a higher tax bracket by just 50c. Now
what is fair about that?”
Do you know that people earning less than $7000 a year
will pay two thirds of the $41,000,000,000 in personal in
come taxes collected in 1960? People earning more than
$7000 will pay the other third despite their higher rate.
Because income taxes have become the most important
Single tax of the Federal government, the average man is
being forced to pay the huge bill Congress saddles on the
American economy.”
There appears a case of two men, each with an income of
$8,300. One pays a tax of $210; the other pays $1,090. Why
the difference? Of course one man claims deductions etc.
Says the author of the article:
“Why should Jones pay five times as much tax as
Smith? Their earnings and living situations are almost
identical. Yet this is typical of the favoritism for special
groups and the punishment for other groups that result
from a progressive income tax.
Such a system is not fair. It is not equal. It is not demo-
Many Attend
| District Club
Meeting Here
The annual meeting of the Gar
den Clubs of East Piedmont Dist
rict was held on Wednesday morn
ing at Central Methodist Church in
Newberry. A coffee hour began
at 9:30 and at 10:30 the meeting
was formally opened with Mrs.
Arnold R. Merchant, district di
rector, presiding.
The invocation was given by
the Rev. T. H. Vickery, pastor of
the host church. Expressions of
greetings were brought by Mayor
Ernest H. Layton and Mrs. T. P.
Crooks, president of the Council
of Newberry Garden Clubs. The
response was made by Mrs. R. C.
Jeter of Union. One-minute re
ports on the activities of the year
were given by the presidents of
the garden clubs in the district.
Mrs. Warren Cousins rendered
a very appropriate solo, *‘The
Mission of the Rose,” accompanied
at the organ by Mrs. J. E. Wise
man. Mrs. S. C. Reid used an ori
ginal poem to introduce Mrs. Rich
ard L. Baker, president of the
South Carolina Garden Club. In
her usual interesting manner Mrs.
Baker told of the recent meeting
of the Southern District in Mobile,
Ala., which she had attended.
At 1:00 p.m. about 150 women
gathered in the beautifully deco
rated Community Hall for a
luncheon. District awards were an
nounced by Mrs. Gary Paschal,
chairman. Following the luncheon,
Mrs. Don Rook presented J. C.
Dowling of Gaffney. He delighted
his audience with interpretative
flower arrangements depicting the
life of Mrs. Baker. The first was
indicative of her college days.
Then followed other arrangements
featuring her garden club work
through the years to the many ac
complishments of her administra
tion as state president.
At the conclusion of the demon
stration gifts were presented to
Mrs. Baker, Mrs. Merchant and
Mr. Dowling.

Mr. and Mrs. Milton Haltiwan-j
ger have moved to 2808 Milne;
Ave. to make their home.
cars are not mere adolescent, but obsolescent. But there isj
a new interest in the ancient vehicles. !
A new interest in old cars has spawned a variety of re
lated businesses. Besides the restorers, there are several
magazines devoted to the field, a number of books on the
subject have appeared or are in the works (including one
containing 1000 prints of rare old cars that will sell for
$1,000), and quite a few firms have come into being simply
to turn out the car parts and accessories that no longer are
available through regular channels.
What makes an old car valuable? Though authorities dif
fer, there are two main considerations: Age and reputa
tion. Autos built before the 1920s generally are considered
antiques. Newer, expensive models, built for speed, quality
,or luxury often are labeled classics, even though their origin
might be as recent as 1941. To be sure, not every old car
is a collector’s item, but such names as Dusenberg, Cord,
Packard, Moon, Stutz, Pierce-Arrow and Mercer often at-
cratic. It is not even honest!
tract a larger price now than their cost when new.
A tax system that can produce such inequality is c<|i>
trary to every democratic American principle we have come
to believe in. And nowonder. A heavy progressive income
tax is the second plank in the Communist ManifestoV .
Not only does the personal • icome tax impose inequali
ties. So does the corporation income tax. Most American
business pays income taxes on net earnings at rates up to
52 per cent. The people who invest money in these busi
nesses have to pay personal income taxes on the part of
the remaining 48 per cent that is distributed to them in
the form of dividends. Thus people who invest in business
have to pay two taxes on the same income—one corporation,
the otBer personal. What is fair about that ?
Then there are businesses that pay not taxes at all—or
very little. Congressman Noah Mason once wrote, in the
Reader’s Digest, about farmers' Union Grain Terminal. In
1946 it had net earnings of $3,650,000. Thus one would think
it would pay taxes of $1,400,000. But it paid no Federal In
come taxes! Why? Because it is a 'co-operative’.
The Red River Lumber company of Westwood, Cal., paid
almost $1,000,000 in Federal income taxes in 1943. In 1946
it paid none! Why! It was bought by a giant co-operative,
the California FruitGrowers exchange, which does $300,000,-
000 business a year.
Is this fair? Who has to make up the difference ifi taxes
which these big co-operatives do not pay? You do. The
business you work for does. The businesses that compete
with them do! Is there anything equitable about such a
system? We don’t see it.”
Perhaps I’m more fortunate than one might think. I
have several cars, all of which have passed the tender years
of infancy and now are in the period of adolescence. The
man of the future now contemplating the speed, luxury
and style of the projected cars of 1965 would say that my
No one knows for sure what started the craze for old
cars, but it seems to have begun after World War II, gained
momentum slowly, and came on fast in the last three or
four years. Despite bad weather, more than 500 members
showed up in Philadelphia last week for the annual meet
ing of the Antique Auto club. A decade ago, only 200 mem
bers attended.
Some authorities believe the craze began as a reaction
to the similarity of post-World War II U. S. Models. Other
factors frequently cited are the desire to preserve histori
cal vehicles, and, in some cases, a wish to possess something
different.
L. Scott Bailey, editor of Antique Automobile, a magazine
put out by the Antique Auto club, tells how prices have
risen. Tn 1935, I bought a Model T Ford in good running
shape cost about $250. Today, that machine might bring
condition for $22’ he recalls. Tn 1955 the same car in good
$500 or $600.’
Just what a restoration job involves varies widely, but
often a collector will start with nothing more than a rusty
chassis and old motor reclaimed from a wayside barn. The
collector removes and cleans every nut, bolt, wire and other
parts, frequently consulting old manuals and other refer
ence works to determine what parts are missing. To find
missing parts, the old car buffs consult each other, adver
tise, bqy fcpm junk dealers, or in extreme cases have a part
made to order at a foundry or machine shop.
Scores of enterprises, some one-man operations, cater to
the old car collector. For instance a company that first start
ed making wooden auto wheels in 1906, then gave up when
wooden wheels ^ ere discarded, is back at it again.
Tires for antique cars have been made by Firestone since
1946 and iq the last few years by several small firms as well.
Firestone‘ estimates it sold about 5000 such tires last
year.”
From The Valley Farmer, Bay
City, Michigan: Spurred, perhaps
by motorists used to the easy
speed of expressways, highway of
ficials in many areas have turned
their attention to .resurfacing our
often-neglected secondary and ru
ral roads. But, in providing for
faster spepd$, ob> these roads, <hey
have overlooked the one safety
factor do modem highway is with
out—an kdequatesign system.
Along 1 expressways, large green
signs provide advance warning of
curves, turnoffs and other hazards
ahead in sufficient time for a
motorist to take appropriate, safe
action.
But accidents rise when second
ary roads are resurfaced for high
er speeds while old sign systems
remain. The single car accident in
which vehicles run off the road on
curves or into obstructions is be
coming one of the most common
causes of deaths on rural high
ways. Many of these roads, with
their modem and broad, smooth
surfaces, have signs that are de
signed for horse-and-buggy speeds.
They often are small, non-reflec-
tive signs that are almost impos
sible to see at night, when most
accidents occur.
From The Lincoln Times, Lin-
comton, N.C.: Among the debts
we owe, not including those which
we must repay painfully in the
prevailing currency, is a debt J o
our community or home town.
There are those who never con
sider this dfebt, but it is a real
debt, and some repayment is due.
Let us look a minute at our
culture and civilization and see
what we have received in our
home town, at birth. There was
a time when we had to roam the
woods like beasts, without family
-or home, without a church to
allay primitive superstition, with
out a government to keep order,
and without organized society to
broaden our social contacts, and
without profitable trade — which
makes warfare unprofitable.
None of us did much to arrange
this wonderful inheritance of the
family, the church, organization
of the state, society, economics,
etc. We came into a world with
many modem conveniences, bene-
fitting from the lessons and ex
periences of the past, and en
joying all the progress which our
home town, the state, the nation
md the world has made
We certainly don’t advocate that
rural road improvement programs
be discontinued. They are long
overdue.
From the Webster Times. Web
ster, Massachusetts: If we could
offer any single piece pf advice ta
youngsters entering college, cr* Re
turning to college, it would be for
them to develop a Christian philos
ophy and attempt to live by it
We are too rapidly becoming a
"standardized” people in the
United States.
Each young boy and girl should
develop their own Christian philos
ophy, according to their religion
and conscience, attempting to do
good for others, as well as them
selves, and they should resist the
temptation to follow the crowd, or
conform socially, if it does not
blend in with his or her own per
sonal philosophy. In the long run,
the world will reward independent
thinking—Although the cost may
seem to be high, or ostracization,
temporarily.
Life will, even yet, reward the
individual who thinks for himself
and develops his own philosophy
and character, and this is a major
undertaking for every student go
ing to school this Fall.
This is the debt we owe. It is
the obligation of each of us to
contribute what he can to the
continuing progress of the human
race, even if in a small way, so
that we repay this large debt we
owe in our own individual way.
From the Catskill Mountain
Star, Saugertiea, N.Y.: We have
an idea the historians of America
may one day be calling tl.e middle
decades of the twentieth century
the "Footloose Era.” Never be
fore have so many Americans
been away from home—roaming
about their own country and the
world at large—as in the years
since World War II.
Like the bear that went over
the mountain, we want to see
what’s on the other side—whether
just for fun or because we think
it is our business to find out. And
modern living, with practically
global telephone service and jet
flying that will take us across an
ocean while Dobbin was taking
Grandpa to town and back, has
pretty well done away with that 1
business of being “tied dpwn” that
we use to hear so much about. >

BETTSR
WEALTH
By C. A. DEAN, M.D.
MEDITORIAL: If I were to ask
most parents, "What is your con
cept of a healthy child?” I am
sure most would answer, "A
chubby one.” They would be |
wrong. I don’t know where this
mistaken idea started but I do
know where it should end—in the
wastebasket.
In children the trend toward
fatness starts when eatin® habits
arc not kept in check and the
child is permitted to eat every
thing and anything. Parents feel
they must let the child have his
regular meals and anything he
wants in between. And if he won’t
eat at the table they permit all
sorts of "goodies” till the next
battle.
Children should have an ade
quate, well-balanced diet and
shouldn’t starve. But don’t overdo
it. Even in children an excess of
calories will be converted to fat
and fat is as harmful to them as it
is to adults.
Maintenance of proper weight
demands some discipline and this
must start during childhood. It is
the parents’ responsibility to try
to cultivate tastes for all foods,
including vegetables, so that a
well-balanced intake is assured.
I know these rules are simple
to outline but hard to implement.
However, If parents are consis
tent, firm and fair they will have
no trouble. I don’t think there
should be scenes or fights at the
table; these can be avoided by
developing good eating habiti
during infancy.
There is always a fear that
children will grow up unhealthy
if they are thin. However, if an
adequate diet is taken there is no
cause for concern. And remem
ber, the child who is thin, that is
of normal weight, is healthier
than a fat one.
Your Federal
Income Tax
Q. In February of 1960, I re
ceived $30,000 as a condemna
tion award for my house and lot.
The property was located on the
right-of-way of a highway
which is to be constructed. I
paid $15,000 for the house and
lot in 1956. Must I report a
gain on my tax return?
A. Yes, unless you have already
spent an amount equal to or great
er than $30,000 to replace the'
property by purchasing other si
milar property or intend to do so
during the period beginning in
February I960 and ending Decenw
her 31, 1961. You have until the
end of the year following the
year in which you received the
proceeds to replace the property;
otherwise you must report the
gain. If you anticipate purchasing
■similar property within the re
placement period, also attach a
statement that you elect to replace
the property condemned.
Q. Last year I spent $600 for
medical expense of my uncle,
age 68. Since he is my depend
ent and is over 65, can I deduct
the $600 paid for him?
A. No. The medical expense for
your uncle must be included with
your other medical expenses and
the total reduced by 3 percent
of your adjusted gross income.
Medical expenses may be deduct
ed in full only if incurred for you
or your spouse, one of whom is
65 or older; or for a dependent
parent over 65. Medical expenses
for other dependents must be re
duced by 3 percent of your ad
justed gross income regardless of
the age of you or your wife, or
of the dependent.
Q. Several years ago I pur
chased a home for $12,000 and
used it as a residence until
1960. During this time I made
improvements costing $3,000,
giving me a total cost of $15,-
000. In 1960 I moved to another
house and began renting my old
residence. Its value on this
date was $14,000. What figure
should I use for depreciation or
gain or loss in case I sell it?
A. The cost of the property for
determining depreciation or loss
in the event you sell is $14,000, the
fair market value at the time it
was converted to rental property.
The basis for determining gain in
the event of a sale is $15,000, the
$12,000 plus $3,000.
Q. I own 500 shares of mining
company stock. To carry on the
operation of the mine, an assess
ment of $1 a share was levied.
My assessment amounted to
$500. May I deduct that amount
as a loss?
A. No. Such payment is an addi
tional price for the shares and
should be added to the original
cost to determine the cost basis
for gain or loss when the stock is
sold.

For some time, very much
aware of the damages that have
been, and are being done, to
the American economy by the
flood of cheap imports from
low wage nations, the nation’s
independent businessmen,
through the Ns'ional Federa
tion of Independent Business,
has request-
ed govern
ment to tight
en up on the
tariff 'sched
ules.
a * •
For many
years now the
whole struc
ture Of Amer
ican business
has been C. W. Harder
helpless while fnzxy - headed
"do-gooders” in the State Dept,
have been delivering the Amer
ican market piece by piece to
foreigners. It has been request
ed that Congress once again
resume full control of its tariff
making powers.
a * *
Now comes another factor
into the critical situation. The
Chicago local of the national
electrical workers union has
served notice that after May J,
their members will refuse to
work with electronic compo
nent parts imported from Ja
pan. The union local charges
that in eight months, 9,000 jobs
were lost due to these low cost
Japanese imports.
* e *
National headquarters of the
union are said to be studying
this matter, with a view to
making such an edict nation
wide. One union official claims
that around 700,000 U. S. elec
tronic workers have lost their
jobs.
* * *
This presents a most grave
situation. Obviously, American
workers have a right to their
© National Federation of Independant BmlM—
jobs, and also to protest the de
struction of those jobs.
* * *
A strike over this situation
would be bad. First of all, there
would be a foolish dislocation
of the economy at the present
time doe to lost sales, lost
wages. And in this age of mis
siles, such a strike could even
set back the defense effort,
which leans so heavily on elec
tronic devices. But the greatest
damage of all would come about
if the union won the strike.
* * *
For once organized labor won
a strike where the issue was
the direction of national policy,
there would probably be no
limits to which power mad la
bor dictators would not aspire.
* * *
And unfortunately, if there
were a major strike over the
electronics issue, the majority
of public sympathy would prob
ably be with-the strikers. There
seems little donbt that the pub
lic would sympathize with
w orkers striking to protect their
jobs from the Japs, losing sight
of the larger issue that would
be Involved. That Issne is
whether or not governmental
policies shall ever be dictated
by the use of the economic
weapon of the strike.
• « •
On the other hand, the ma
jority of Congress must of ne
cessity soon face up to a major
problem of the times.
* • *
From the lumber workers of
the Northwrest, to the shoe
makers of New England, to the
steel workers of Pittsburgh, to
the oil workers of Texas, to the
electronic workers of Chicago,
there has hardly been a seg
ment of American industry that
has escaped ihe growing can
cer of cheap imports from
cheap labor nations. It seems
unlikely that the people’s elect
ed representatives can desert
the people.
