Holmes Alexander, in a reeert lolumn, mentioned some of these ehanjies. 1 o hriiiK it down to a loeal le vel, a few months ayo there was a oireetive posted on the bulletin hoard at the loeal aimory, wtmli .stated tliat at no time eouM tin name of any country he used in training National tluardsnien—the enemy should he referred to only as "a jiotential enemy’’ or "a po tent.ial a^Ki'essor’’. Two weeks a^o, during a train ing- drill, a film was shown to the men of the 22hth (iroup. It pictur ed advances made by Communism and how these advances were made by infiltration. The film made no bones about calling a spade a spade, about calling Russia by its name, as well as Communist Chin- a, other Communist countries, and the "Sino-Sovict" bloc. Not only was the film allowed to be shown, it was ordered to he shown to all Cuardsmen imme diately. So there may not. have heen glaring headlines, but indications art* that Senator Thurmond’s per sistent attacks on a ‘‘no-win’’ pol icy are having some effect. For that, South Carolina should pro mote him to Senior Senator and send someone (namely, Bill Work man) up there to join in the fight for a return to constitutional gov ernment, not government dictated by the Kennedy boys. \n K I 11 11W ' 11 p I \\ I I ; i i \ I W \ C! k Hi I-. lit 1 ! 1 (III! till \1 .

I thought that was a pretty good crowd, hut the lieutenant stated that at some places they had had three to four thousand visitors during Open House and, inciden tally, Newberry is one of the two larger places at which the Express has been located. Maybe, too, it is one of the few places with a large lake on either side and so many Sunday afternoon boating enthusiasts. The Express is one of three such units and is part of the Strategic Air Command (SAC). Its purpose is to increase and maintain bomber crew efficiency. The planes—B-47 and B-52 jet bombers, capable of carrying all those destructive-type bombs—ar rive over the Express about once every twelve minutes. They don’t drop bombs; they “drop” a signal at an imaginary target, and elec tronic gadgets on the train indi cate how close the “bomb” comes to the target. An operation of this sort is hard to describe to someone with no background in Air Force acti vities and I’m sure most of those in attendance didn’t know much more when they left than they did before.

The constitutional system whii h J emerged from our Declaration of Independence is now the oldest form of government in the world. At (iettysbmg, Lincoln wondered if this Nation or any nation de dicated to liberty under Cod could long endure. Now, almost a hun dred years later. President Ken nedy is haunted by the same dis turbing doubts. In his State of the Union mes sage to Congress in .lamiary, the President said: "Before my term is ended, we shall have to) test anew whether a nation or-j ganized and governed snob as ours ; can endure. The outcome is by no means certain." If the outcome was uncertain then, how much more uncertain it is now, after t h ■ fall of I .nos. t lie colinpsu n) tin' Cuban invasinn, and the situation in West Berlin?! As we celebrate this iSt'tli anni versary ot our national indepeu denee. the proper rxerci-e of that independence is seriously impeded, it not completely paralyzed by j our existing treaty commitments: generally and by our commitments to the United Nations and ether similar international treaties. An even more serious irnpedi merit to forthright American inde pendence now is the international ist mentality of our political lead ership. Our national independence i- not the first, and is probably the last of all the important consideration" that are now being weighed and evaluated by those yvho arc offi cially charged with The responsi bility for preserving iUv The millions of men an>l women who proudly salute the Flag of the United States and the Republic for which it stands on this .Julv Fourth, should not let. this his toric occasion pass without a con scions, popular reactivation of the imperishable truth that made us free and which is set forth with i^ndi ringing clarity in the great document that brought this Nation to life. («et a copy of the American De claration of Independence now and read it ca "fully. Here is the launching pad of principle from which our new, free country soar ed to unprecedented heights of achievement and prosperity. Note that it begins with a fervent and reverent proclamation of the po wer and providence of (iod, the eternal author of human life and human liberty. Then, logically and consequentially, the Declaration chains civil government into per petual servitude as mans’ agent tor the protection of God’s gifts. At this moment, the factual presuppositions of our Declaration of Independence sue categorically denied, deliberately defamed, and systematically outlawed through out more than a third of the world. The tru f h that made us free is assaulted everywhere by a mili tant marching force of fraud and falsehood that flies the red ban ner of Communism and flaunts its determination to bury God-given freedom under an avalanche of activated atheism. We validated this piratical con spiracy against civilization when we recognized the rapidly disin tegrating Communist dictatorship as the government of Russia in 1933. The bloody record reveals that, instead of resisting this evil scourge we have positively inter vened to help it whenever the ag onies of its victims welled up high enough to threaten the monstrous evil with suffocation. Whenever and wherever Communist dictators are about to be drowned in the blood of their victims, we, the trustees of truth about freedom, rush in to bail the bandits out. Do we really want to destroy Communism ? Are we still sold on the self-evident truths of the De claration of Independence? There are two strikes on our resolution to defeat Communism. One of them is the record of the Hungarian anti-Communist revol ution and the other is our notor ious double-cross of the Cuban in vasion. If we miss the impending pitch from China, we are out of this game, and freedom will dis appear for a thousand years. “We hold these truths to he self- evident”—or do we really ? What do you think ? What are you going to do about it? Bishop Conducts Ordination Rites At St. Luke’s Church .. UP Rev. C. Mfrod Cole. Bishop of the Episcopal DiiKase of upper South Carolina, congratulates Rev.

He had been in ill health for the past several months. Mr. Davis was horn and reared in Newberry and was the son of the late Colin Campbell and Sar ah Greneker Davis. He received' his education in the Newberry 1 City schools and at The Citadel. ' Mr. Davis was a retired automo bile dealer, having served New- l>crry as Dhevrolet and Buick dealer for 31 years. Upon retir ing from that business, he oper ated his cattle farm near New berry. Mr. Davis was a member 'f St. Lukek; Episcopal Church; a sen ior Warden of the church; a mem ber of the vestry; a member of the standing committee of the upper Episcopal Diocese of South Caro lina; a member of the Church Foundation of the upper Diocese; and was active in all church work.

Long was presented for Civic League Invites Public To Use Park "The public is invited to make greater use of Margaret Hunter Park for picnics and other out ings,” Hal Kohn, president of the Civic League said today. “There are tables with seats and movable benches, and an abundance of cool, restful shade,” he continued. "No application to use the park is re quired; just a request that you leave it as clean as you found it. Just now the crape myrtle is in all its glory, beginning its hund red days of bloom from which its name, lagerstroemia, is derived. And the creek continues to peace fully meander through the Park.’ At a recent meeting, the Civic i.eague directors, after serious consideration, recommended to the League that the Manger Scene be moved from its present loca tion, the thought being that it is used for but two w r eeks out of 52 and that the space it occupies is needed for year round use. Any organization wishing to take over the annual presentation of the manger scene is asked to apply for same. The offer includes the build ing, to be moved, and all of the Dairen, Conn. One son, Lt.

Dawkins re ports that 156 cases came before his jurisdiction during the month of June and fines collected amounted to $2500.02. Fifity-five of the arrests were for driving too fast for conditions. A new violation was added to the June list—that of chicken fighting. Twenty-five persons were arrested on this charge.

The League is about to embark on a long-range plan, with fine cooperation from city officials, to have a survey made of the recrea tional and beautification oppor tunities now available here. This plan will include roadside plant ings and improving the main ap proaches to the city. It will em brace every phase of making New berry a better place in which to live. The League wishes to em phasize that this will not be a Civic League or city government 1 project, but one in which all civic organizations and the entire popu lace will be asked to cooperate be cause, without such cooperation, the cost of the survey will be wast ed Call to Prayer O, God, be present with us al ways, dwell within our hearts. With Thy Light and Thy Spirit guide our souls, our thoughts and all of our actions, that we may both teach Thy Word and live it, that Thy healing power may bless our land and may lead men and nations from darkness to light, from war to peace, for Christ’s sake. Amen. Upper South Carolim. Among those taking part in t e service was Rev. George Maxwell. Vicar of St. Christopher’s church in Spartanburg, who was a seminary classmate of Mr. Long. Rev. James R. Rowland, Vicar of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Batesburg, preached an imp essive ordination sermon. Others taking part in the service included Rev. Edwin B. Clippard and Rev. Wil liam A. Thompson, both of whom have served St. Luke’s in the past; and Rev. R. Houseal Norris, who entered the ministry as a member of St. Luke’s. Rev. Rowland pointed out the long years of education and prep aration which lead to the ordina tion of a priest in the Episcopal Church. He told of the exhaustive oral examinations which a deacon must pass successfully before he is accepted for the Priesthood, and stated that in the Episcopal Church, not only are candidates for the sacred order of Priests ex amined and re-examined, they are also psychoanalyzed. The impressive ceremony in his toric St. Luke’s was concluded with the celebration of the Holy Com munion by the Bishop .assisted by the new priest. Immediately after wards, members of the congrega tion wore served a luncheon in the Parish House. BIRTHDAY GREETINGS July 8: Mrs. Constance Arm- field McHargue, E. L.
