Having a libraiian tven part
time at eavh school is a help, but
if the Newberry Elementary
sc hools are to become accredited,
uvcer the minimum requirements
set forth by the State Department
ci Education. Boundary and
Speers each must have a full time
linrarian ana Junior High at
least a part time librarian. The
elementary schools have a lonp;
road to travel to be eligible for
accreditation at the end of the
DA,6 school year. The program is
set ur> to tK'gin this year and end
in DAb with full requirements for
accreditation being met by that
time. 1 am told that to meet the
minimum — not the recommended,
but just the minimum require
ments, would require an additional
ob mills for school purposes each
year from now on.
But to get back to the library
situation. As 1 said, having a li
brarian is a step forward but it is
a crying sham* to look at the col
lection of lx>oks contained in the
libraries—at least at Boundary
and Speers. There are perhaps less
than 200 books in each library—
and the remainder of the libraries
consist of row after row of vacant
space. And 1 am told that the
amount alloted for purchase of li
brary books for the three schools
this year is $000! Anyone who has
ever purchased one book will know
just how far- you can spread $000
among three schools!
The requirements for accredita
tion call for three hooks per pu
pil to be purchased this year.
There are roughly 1200 students
in the elementary grades—which
means .‘AGO books should be in the
libraries this year. That would
mean at least 2000 books (assum
ing there are some at Junior
High) should be purchased this
year—can you imagine getting
2,000 books for $600?
I believe some of the PTAs plan
to put their efforts behind the
goal of purchasing library books
this year, but much more is need
ed if we are ever to get our ele
mentary schools accredited.

WHY THE WASTE?
On the subject of schools, the
smaller schools of the county
have been alloted a certain amount
of money from the last bond issue
for repairs, renovations, etc. And
yet those “in the know” are say
ing that in just a few years time,
these schools will be closed. I
have in mind particularly Silver-
street and Bush River, where the
enrollment has dropped so low
that it is not feasible to continue
operating the schools. This may
also be true of smaller schools in
the lower part of the county. I
don’t know whether these good
people realize it or not, but their
schools are doomed. Whether there
will be an effort to consolidate
Bush River and Silverstreet, or
whether both will be closed and
conservative, between pro-Ken
nedy and anti-Kennedy candi
dates.
Make no mistake what is the
central issue of tne general elec
tion. Is is the Kennedy admini
stration.
For the first time since the
presidential election, South Caro
linians will have the opportuni
ty to register a protest against
the New Frontier.
A vote for Johnston will be a
vote for the New Frontier—fo”
Bobby Kennedy, Arthur Schles-
inger Jr.. Walt Bestow, Soapy
Williams. Dean Busk, McCeorge
Bundy, Averill Harriman — the
entire crew that's wrecking the
country.
If anyone imagines that there
isn’t a whopping vote waiting
for a conservative who vows to
fight the Kennedy New Frontier,
then he hasn’t spent much time
recently in South Carolina.
The real political miracle will
be if Olin D. Johnston can over
come the opposition of South
Carolinians who hold that the
Kennedy administration is bad
news for America.
Thousands of conservatives
are ready to work night and day
to defeat Olin Johnston, symbol
and spokesman of the Kennedy
administration in this state.

Em Just A
Steering Wheel
A leaflet containing the follow
ing message has been given by
S. C. Highway Patrolmen to many
drivers during the past week. It
is reprinted here for the benefit of
those who may not have received
a copy:
Pm Just A Steering Wheel
I’m just a Wheel. A steering-
wheel. And you’re my captain.
Behind me you’re the lord and
master of a miracle. You can
make me take the kids to school.
You can turn me down the sunny
road toward town. With me you
can guide your goods to the mar
ket . . . you can rush the sick to
be healed . . . you can go in min
utes to places hours away. You
can do magic.
Yet in the blink of an eye, in
the tick of your watch, I can
turn deadly killer. I can snuff out
the life of a kid still full of life—
maybe YOUR KID! I can twist a
I smile into tears. I can wreck and
cripple and destroy. I can deal
out death like the plague. And I’m
no respecter of persons. A child, a
grandmother, even YOU, my
friend . . . it’s all the same to
me.
I’m sensitive, I respond instant
ly to the hands you give me. Give
me calm hands, steady hands,
careful hands . . . and I’m your
friend. But give me unsteady
hands, fuzzy-minded hands, reck
less hands . . . then I’m your
enemy, a menace to the life, hap
piness, the future of every person,,
every youngster riding, -walking,
playing.
I was made for pleasure and
usefulness. Keep me that way.
I’m in your hands. I’m just a steer
ing wheel. And you’re my captain.
Behind me you’re the lord and
master of a miracle ... or a
tragedy. It’s up to you.
