THE “SPECTATOR’S” COLUMN I quote an illuminating exposi tion of our cotton textile enter prise. As you know, the cotton tex tile operations are our paramount industrial interest in South Caro lina. Mr. Walter Regnery, Vice President and General Manager of the Great Joanna Cotton Mills, is recognized not only as a technical genius in. the top rank of the South’s industrial leaders, but he is a man of extraordinary under standing of our fellow men and a gracious gentleman whose gentil ity endears him to all the great family of men and women com posing the Joanna company. Along with the genius proved in the management of Joanna Mr. Regnery has built a happy com munity which always emphasizes the happy fellowship of all who have the good fortune to live and work there. I quote Mr. Regnery: “The future of cotton textiles in this country is in the hands of the government. A startling state ment to make about a nation which has thrived under the free enter prise system? True. Contrary to our heritage, the fact fits the pattern of a socialistic govern ment or a dictatorship. For that very reason I believe that we must face facts, find a remedy, and fight for it. Let’s analyze the problem. Our entire industry is depend ent on producing an end product of greater usefulness and lower cost than a product made by any other means. At the present time we have the most efficient overall operation at every step, that can be found in the world. At the same time we afford labor a higher standard of living than exists anywhere else in the world. Building up this ach ievement, unsurpassed by any na tion since the world began, has taken generations. Yet the plan ners are bent on destroying it, on giving the advantage to some oth er country—if we are not alerted for the fight. Let us consider the first step, growing and ginning the raw cot ton fibre. The cotton producer has accomplished wonders. We lead the world in development of vani ties of cotton for particular end uses, in higher yield per acre, in adaptation to weather or soil con ditions. We have developed farm ing techniques 'hat are astounding both in the increased yield and in the reduction in labor per pound. Improvements in harvesting and ginning are also outstanding. In short, true American ingenuity has made fantastic strides in every field so that we can produce the best and cheapest cotton in the world and still support the worker at higher living standards. However, the government does not let this segment of our indus- try take advantage of these won derful strides. Basically, the bu reaucrats will not allow cotton growers to operate under the free competitive system. Government controls both price and areas where cotton is grown. To make matters worse, the government sells to the world this same cot ton 8 1-2 cents per pound cheaper than to the industry in this coun try. These controls and checks by the government destroy all the ad vantages of the wonderful tech nological improvements made by the cotton-growing industry, which play a most important part in keeping cotton’s competitive posi tion in the U. S. raw material market. Our giant textile manu facturing industry is being pre vented from maintaining its large export trade, and foreign manu facturers are being given a raw material cost advantage over our industry. Our textile manufacturing in dustry, including mills, finishers, and cutters, surpasses any other such industry in the world in ef ficiency and quality of product. We lead the world here today. In addition to this, we have built up through research a backlog of ideas that will keep us this way. This condition exists today solely because this part of our overall industry has operated under the free enterprise system. We had to keep modern to exist. We had to move forward or slow down. In conclusion, I believe that we as an overall industry can accept the challenge of foreign competi tion in cotton goods only if we allow the cotton-growing industry to produce a fibre on a truly com petitive basis; second, our govern ment will have to be willing at all times to keep every country op erating under the same rules. It will be a hard fight on everyone’s part but, with our American in genuity, we can succeed.” “In line with the claim that this is a frugal budget, the President says he has felt obligated to “lim it severely” his spending proposals for programs other than defense and space. That approach bespeaks a reas onable sense of national priorities. If defense and space spending must be boosted by billions, which itself is open to some question, then it is mandatory to cut back on less important or pointless do mestic-civilian projects. Unfortu nately, the specifics reflect any thing but a severe limitation in that area. On top of everything the Gov ernment is already doing, Mr. Ken nedy proposes new or expanded programs for education, health, re training workers, depressed areas, urban redevelopment, housing help for moderate-income families and that is only a partial list. So we find not a few spending increases outside of defense and space in the fiscal 1964 budget. Natural resources up over $100 million! housing and community development up some $350 million; commerce and transportation up over $440 million; health, labor and welfare (including trust-fund payments) up $1.6 billion. The fact is that this kind of domestic spending has been grow ing in recent years at a rate even more remarkable than military spending. Consider this little item from a special anaylsis in the bud get: Tn 10 years, total Federal | aid to state and local governments will have quadrupled, rising from $2.7 million in 1954 to an estim ated $10.4 billion in 1964.’ That’s the way our money goes. And such is the Federal definition of frugality.” RECOGNIZE THIS? OF YOUR SAVINGS INSURED UP TO 5iaooo ^0^ Where you see this emblem, your savings are safe.

WILLINGHAM BRANCH OFFICE — Bafesburg, S. C. E. B. PURCELL W. C. HUFFMAN Why do we pay taxes ? Our Edisto Coop Electric brethren tell us in a full page advertisement that 6200 non-profit (non-taxing concerns) Coops operate in South Carolina. That amazed me; I checked with the Secretary of State and the Commissioner of Agriculture and no one denies that statement, 6200 non-tax pay ing enterprises! Somebody has to support the schools, the State Governments, the Municipal governments. Our legislature is preparing a tax bill for State services (includ ing help for schools) of $211,000,- 000—and then some; your delega tion in the Legislature is prepar ing a County Supply bill (includ ing school taxes); Town govern ments are preparing budgets for all town services—police, fire de partment, street cleaning, etc. All these—and more—are en tirely dependent on tax-money. Power companies pay 2 3/4 bil lions to the nation; probably mil lions to our State, our Counties, our Towns, to our schools. Why? Why? Don’t the Coops receive full protection? And pay nothing! Why? “Here’s a tax fact with many implications: The Investor Owned electric utility companies pay more taxes in support of local, state and federal governments than any other American indus try. This is the equivalent of about 24 cents on every dollar of electric revenue received by the companies . . . and is about 230 million dol lars greater than their 1961 tax bill. Another point of interest—it’s the Federal government that gets the largest chunk of the tax dol lars. That total again—almost 2 and three-quarter billion . . . the largest amount paid in taxes by any American industry! Yet there are those who purpose clearly shows they are determined to so cialize or federalize the electric industry and lose these billions in taxes annually. Who will make up the difference? You and I will, of course!” If the Government operated all the power business of the nation it would have a great number of dead-heads on the payroll, along with less efficient service and with much higher rates for power un less the Congress had to make up deficits of some billions. We must remember this: Every department of public service is absolutely dependent on tax money for its support. What about the schools? Who will put up the mon ey for our schools?

Whitener, Jr., dated No vember 30, 1962, recorded in the office of Clerk of Court for New berry County in Deed Book 83 at page 65. Think over this: “When you read the Declaration of Independ ence (and every one of us should) read it all. Too many Americans think it guarantees them Life, Liberty and Happiness. Not at all —only the pursuit of happiness. No one but a selfish child thinks he has the right to happiness. Adults know it has to be deserved, earned—and the only way to earn it is to contribute more to the world than you take. If you are a worker, you pro duce enough to pay your wage, plus enough to pay for the ma chine, without which you would have no job. If you’re a business man, you produce enough to pay your work men a fair wage, enough for an incentive return to your stockhold ers whose savings built the com pany, and enough for your share of necessary taxes to protect your country.

If you’re a politician you work first for the good of your coun try, not your party or yourself. That is the honest way to happi ness as every intelligent adult knows.
