Time really does fly; it seems as if only a short time ago -we were enjoying last Christmas. We certainly hope that each of you will have a very pleasant holi day season and that you will be able to enjoy Christmas in the true spirit of the Birth of Jesus. We have so much to be thankful ior: freedom of worship, freedom of business, and just being Ameri cans. We join you this Christmas in a spirit of humbleness before The Maker of All Mankind; celebrat ing Christmas, when our Country is threatened and our very free dom which we cherish so much being threatened, in prayer and thankfulness for the birth of Je sus, giving hope to all mankind. Christmas Trees Are beautiful ornaments to have in the home during Christ mas season. But they can cause your holiday season to be marred by fire. Be careful when selecting trees. Be sure they are green and fresh cut. Place them in a stand that contains water. They won’t dry out so fast. Keep checking the tree along; you may have to dis card it and get another if it’s real dry. Better to be safe than to have a fire. Don’t leave home with tree lights burning. A short in the wires can mean disaster to you. Plan for 1962 When you are figuring out in come taxes and your profits and losses, make mental notes to make plans for the coming year. If you don’t keep records this year, you’re going to have a lot of trouble making out your tax and you wont be able to determine where you lost or earned all your money: This may sound foolish, but it’s true. We don’t worry too much about records until the end of the year. A sound business man keeps records all year through. He knows what’s making money for him and he knows what’s losing money for him. Keep records this year 1962. It’ll pay you. Repair These days that you are not us ing your equipment are good days to check all equipment and repair or get it repaired. Grease and oil protect our ma chinery. Does not take long to do these mighty important jobs and it can sure save you money and aggravation. You’ll be in a hurry next spring; why wait until then to prepare the macninery ?

AAUW Meeting Was Saturday The regular meeting of the New berry branch of the American Association of University Women was held on December 16 at the home of Mrs. James F. Cummings on Caldwell street. Miss Margaret Paysinger, the president, called the meeting to order and gave a short opening prayer. She called for reports of officers and chair men. Membership as well as the fellowship program was discuss ed. The branch is making a list of the four generation families of the county and of qualified wo men whose names will be sub mitted for membership on key committees at the state level. Mrs. F. Scott Elliott was ap pointed to write a Collect to be used in opening the meetings of the branch. After various items of business had been transacted, Mrs. Elliott, the program chairman, presented Miss Paysinger as program lead er. The speaker chose as her top ic “The Gift of Music.” She be gan her remarks by giving a num ber of definitions of the word “music” among which was one from Shakespeare. This reads, “the man that hath no music in himself, nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.” Miss Paysinger gave the history of some of the great Christmas songs and sang several of these as solos. The group joined her in singing several of them. COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS I gw ■ trr. Mh 2 •a Heartfelt good cheer we wish you • • • our loyal customers. SEARS CATAIjOG SALES STORE Newberry, S.

The Constitution of the United States was a compact to be strict ly construed and rigorously ad hered to. Mr. Chief Justice Mar shall opened the flood gates of misgovernment by his doctrine of “Implied Powers”. Probably half of all the bureaucratic sway of to day grew out of that. Further more, the so-called 14th Amend ment was never validly adopted and should be declared invalid by the Courts. Before leaving the question of the 14th Amendment I have re peatedly urged that the General Assembly of South Carolina should appoint a Commission of three who would be empowered to appoint three (3) pre-eminent historians of National reputation to study the historical and Cons titutional background of the eo- called 14th Amendment and if such a body of pre-eminent histor ians should declare that the 14th Amendment had never been valid ly adopted or legally proclaimed the commission should issue an appropriate declaration— or the Governor might—circulating the findings of the historians to all newspapers, magazines, news agencies, Congressmen, Governors Judges and Justices of all courts. I ventured to suggest Raymond Moley as one of the three because of his background in history and government. I did not mean to have any part in this, nor do I seek any public ity; I wish to attack evil at the root. At an earlier period I would have written to a hundred men (including myself) for the money. Money is not the main consid eration: what would count most would be the action of our Sover eign State in a matter peculiarly within the scope of the concern of one of the 13 original and sover eign States. Now, as to “Implied Powers”. Any student of our law and insti tutions; any man of woman with a sense of historical acumen and perspective, will know that the States really intended to act on Constitutional questions by spec ial act of the Sovereign States. No one contemplated a court de cision invalidating an Act of Con gress. All the multiplicity of agencies with their quasi-sovereign powers, running wild all over the nation, are a violent negation of all that our ancestors fought for or con templated. One agency interposed mischievously with Charles E. Daniel, but he had the courage to fight and to arouse and inform the people. I wish we had a few men of 4 large means who would organ ize to strike at the root of our Bureaucratic arrogance. The government today presumes to strike at you if you move and it has so far sapped our freedom and manhood that we must curry favor with the government. I may seem to harp on this but you and I won’t harp on it long; we are passing on; we are bowing and scraping, yielding, complying and obsequiously pleading for the right to stand up like men. We are betraying the next gen eration 2 If even 50 men in Congress had the spirit of Patrick Henry or William E. Borah we could halt the trend to Socialism and dicta torship and arouse the nation. of government officials, whether it’s the laws—they all combine to create the favorable, or the un favorable, climate and structure ! within which the free citizens must act. I’d like to give you just a brief look at the bright side of the re sults. I should like to say that within the past three years, we’ve added $100 million a year to state aid to education. It’s now up $300 mil lion a year; which is more than the entire total increase in taxes in 1959. That helps the real estate taxes, which many of you pay for your share of the educational cost of our growing community. Briefly, these are the results. In the past two and a half years, over $5 billion has been invested by private enterprise in this State. • In the past 6 months, 198 new plants have been announced in this state. The next state to us had - 102. We’re running almost two to one to our next competitor. There qre .450,000 more jobs to day than, there were in 1958. We lop]; forward to the best conditions this fall and winter and spring that ihis state has ever known or ever enjoyed. I can as sure you, gentlemen, that this is not something that the state is trying to do alone. It’s somethin? the state is doing with your busi ness organizations, with the labor organizations and with the local communities. I think, for the first time, there is a real feeling of the mutuality of interest in the common pur pose—real enthusiasm.” I am not endorsing Mr. Rocke feller for President, but a few facts in his address to the New York Chamber of Commerce shed a great light on his service as Governor of New York. “When I took office almost 3 years ago, there were 600,000 un employed in this State. We were going further into the red as far as state expenditures were con cerned. Over 144 industries had left New York in the previous four years and had gone to New Jer sey. One hundred twenty-three bus companies had failed. I was presented with a budget calling for expenditures of $2,300,- 000 based on an income of $1,600,- 000. Inother words, a $700 million deficit. One of the major industrial con cerns of the state, through one of their senior officers, had made the statement that not another dol lar would be spent in New York and that they rated New York State 46th in the list of states, where, in their opinion, it was most desirable to do business. Therefore, as a responsible head of government responsible for the well-being of the people, my responsibility was to create a framework within which private initiative and private enterprise could flourish, and do business on an expanding basis with profits, which could be reinvested into new research, into new plants, into new products, employing more peo ple and, therefore, insuring the opportunity of the future of our system and our citizens.” “The problem is—and this is basic in my mind—how do we as free citizens control government so that it serves our purposes and doesn’t overwhelm us and stifle our system. That has been our objective in this state.

Tree Planting Is Urged An extensive forest tree plant ing program is needed in New berry county if forest land is to of Dallas, Texaas, as having be fully productive, according to Newberry District Forester John E. Graham. Based on the Forest Resources Survey of 1968, an estimated 91,- 031 acres of Newberry county lands are not producing to ibjeir capacity because they are under stocked to a profitable tree spe cies. Most of this land is upland where pines should,, be planted to (1) stock the latod, (2) restock cut-over woodland, or (3) replace poor quality trees and brush. Only 1,447,150 seedlings were planted in this county last year. At this rate 63 years would be re quired to complete present plant ing needs. Landowners have re quested only 644,500 seedlings so far this year. Seedlings are still available at any of the four S. C. State Commission of Forestry nurseries. Dorn Has Best ■ : Congressmen W. J.
