PAGE SIX THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 196? From Trannie Key, CrossviUe, Tennessee: “I see the (I Remem ber) column in the “Upper Cum berland Times,” and with all the modern gadgets of today, I feel that I can qualify as an oldtimer, although I was not born a century ago (not quite) . . . and looking back at childhood days, I feel a century has passed. When I was a little girl we lived la a backwoods land. Spring came early and we took off our shoes and went barefoot until frost came the following Fall. We had to cross a river' to get to school and my father would take us to the other chore in a canoe each morning, return for us when school was out. The school term was four months, but I never attended a full four months. We went bare foot to school, carried lunch in a bucket, shared by three brothers and myself. We had never seen a bologna aandwich, or bologna, but bad plenty of country ham, homemade biscuits, etc. Some of the things unknown to us: lunch meat, beans in the can, cars, gasoline engines, electricity, trains. Farming was done with mule- drawn plows and all crops reaped by hand. Dried foods were winter time fare—dry beans, fodder beans, dried pumpkin and dried fruits. We ground our meal from we raised, using a water grist mm owned by an uncle. <C«a4 • Mink to — OM Rev. ROBERT H. HARPER CHALLENGE OF THE RESURRECTION T HE Resurrection brings the greatest challenge, perhaps, known to men. A distinguished man has written that death has brought into human life a ncjv spirit from which all noble and heroic things come. The horizon that limits human life defines it and makes it great. But a greater challenge than death does the apostle find, as he meets the glorified Jesus as He appeared to him in splendor as the Messiah and he later wrote to his followers, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek the things which are above.” Much depends upon a man’s at titude in determining what he sees. He may look downward and his eyes are darkened by the shadows of earth. But if he looks up, he will have stars in his eyes. You will remember reading in Pil grims' Progress that the man with the muck rake was so intent upon the little and sordid things of earth that he did not see the crown of gold held just above his head. A friend told me of two ladies who were driving through a beau tiful stretch of country where na ture unfolded in a changing pano rama of rustic charm. As they drove down a long slope, where all things were touched with gold en light from the setting sun, one lady exclaimed, “Isn’t it beauti ful!” ••• A medicine chest in the bathroom just isn't enough for the large family. There is a definite need for room to store extra towels and wash cloths, beauty aids, soap, etc. Bathrooms in some older bomes are so small that there just isn’t room to do anything about the prob lem. One of the best solu tions, where possible, is a wall-hung “open” cabinet of the type shown in ac companying sketch. Any home handyman can de sign such a cabinet, making shelf sections as deep or as shallow as desired. It’s best to make shelf sections deep enough to hold plenty of towels. With the outdoor season ahead, children coming in from playgrounds and sand piles will need a’plenty.

Rub with vinegar, oil, salt and pepper and let stand over night before roasting. Try a salad of canned pineapple slices and apricot halves, topped with orange and grapefruit sec tions, and perch a cream-cheese- stuffed pitted prune on top. It’s nice to pickle canned peach halves with vinegar, honey, whole cloves and peach syrup. It takes 5 minutes of simmering. For a chilly night, max canned oysters with condensed cream of mushroom soup and stuff long, hollo wed-out rolls. Top with but tered crumbs and bake.

On the contrary, he says, we depend heavily upon them in producing food and fiber crops and in preventing insect- born human and animal diseases. Millions of people are alive today because of DDT and other insecti cides used to suppress insects car rying malaria, yellow fever and typhus. moo ITEM: The average adult needs about 5,000 units of vitamin A per day. Fruits and vegetables that are deep yellow or dark green in color provide large amounts of carotene, which the body can change into vitamin A. Some com mon fruits and vegetables are relatively expensive sources of vitamin A because they contain such small amounts of it For in stance, you’d have to eat about 7 cups of corn—or 3 or 4 cups of peas-4o get as much vitamin A as yom would in V* cup of carrots. • • • ITEM: You can make doughnuts using canned biscuits. Just punch a hole in each biscuit and fry in deep fat until golden brown. Drain, and then roll in sugar.

IN AN ALL-OUT effort to force integration of the races, the U.S. Supreme Court and the Administration have extended their goals from public to pri vate integration. In doing so, they are putting in jeopardy the private rights of all Americans and are setting the stage for establishment of a dictatorship over our free enterprise system. THE ADMINISTRATION is now trying to induce the Con gress to indorse its position and give it the color of law by ap proving a proposed statute which would in effect tell American businessmen that they must serve and sell to whom the Fed eral Government dictates. The authority being cited for such Congressional action is the com merce clause of the Constitution which provides for regulation of commerce “among the several States.” THE COMMERCE CLAUSE has been stretched all out of proportion by Supreme Cou it decisions and some Congressional enactments. This has been done at the insistence of onion lead ers and others favoring central ization of power in Washington in order to force their will on local businesses. The Court has said that virtually all businesses afffcet interstate commerce re-1 gardlest of whether their oper ations are local in nature or actually extend across State lines. THE DRIVE for this new legislative proposal has been kicked off by the recent sit-in and other mob actions against private business concerns. These actions have provoked rioting and have resulted in mass ar rests. The Supreme Court has in effect freed all rioters attempt ing to “sit-in” nnder the illegal ly ratified 14th Amendment's prohibition against State action to deny “equal protection of the laws.” The Court, by engaging in a game of mental gymnastics to reach its pre-determined con clusion, found that a local city ordinance in Greenville, S. C„ constituted State action against sit-inners, and even in the New Orleans case, where there was no local ordinance involved, the court held that statements by local officials urgmg no sit-ins constituted State action. ONE JUSTICE, Mr. Harlan, stood up for protection of pri- I vate rights and pointed to the fallacy of trying to apply the 14th Amendment to the New Orleans case. He said: “An in dividual’s right to restrict the use of his property, however un regenerate a particular exercise of that right may be thought, lies beyond the reach of the 14th Amendment. Freedom of the individual to choose his asso ciates or his neighbors; to use and dispose of his property as he sees fit; to be irrational, arbitrary, capricious, even un just in his persona] relations are things all entitled to a large measure of protection from Gov ernment interference.” MR. JUSTICE HARLAN had reference to another section of the 14th Amendment and a clause in the 5th Amendment which provide that no person can be “deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” THE PROPOSAL to establish a dictatorship over American business and integrate private as well as public life is an effort to appease the Negro vote bloc. In doing so, it places greater stress on equality than personal liberty. This is in direct conflict with the principal purpose for which our goyeiiiment was estab lished: “to ... secure the Bless ings of Liberty, 0 as set out in the Preamble to the Constitution. AT THE HEART of the fight in the cold war ia the issue of liberty against the purported aim of the communists to make everybody common or equal. Francis Lieber pointed out in his great work on “Civil Liberty” that “Equality absolutely carried out leads to communism.” He realized that the cry of the equalitarians is aot the Ameri can creed, bnt rather it is the creed of Marxism and the come- on of communism. Alexander Hamilton likewise recognized the conflict between liberty and equality when he told the Con stitutional Convention: “Ine quality will exist as long as liberty exists. It unavoidably results from that very liberty itself.” THIS IS THE choice the Con gress will have to make: Liberty or Equality ?

M H ERE is a classic family case that points up dramatically two of the major problems par ents face in retirement — their money and their children, and the conflict between the two. “My father retired four years ago with substantial savings, five married children, and a huge rambling old house that he loved and Mother hated. “About two years ago one of my sisters and her husband came upon bad times — their little business failed. They were quite up against it, and in talks between my sister and Father it was agreed that the sister’ and her husband, and their child, would move into the family home. “It was to be for six months at most, all of Us were told.. Just until Good Old Joe could get on his feet again. “Four months later, almost to the day, Father died of a heart attack. And there sat sister and Joe. “Father left a will giving every thing to Mother, with the provi sion that at her death the children cash in. When the dust settled the first thing Mother thought of was getting rid of that house.” But, according to the sister tell ing this story, Joe and his family stayed serenely on. Where they had (been living out of suitcases before thfey now began moving their furniture out of storage and into the hoifie. “My sister's husband went back to work, and. made some sort of vague agreement with Mother that he and sister would share the ex penses of ^he house. This they “And all the white Mother comes to us other children complaining bitterly. She wonts Joe's family out. She cries they are living on her mo/iey. That they are mean and selfish. That She wants to move into an apartment and sell the place. “But she hasn't got the courage to kick Joe and sister out . . .” “It makes the rest of us mad enough to fight. But unless Mother can muster the nerve to tell Joe to move out, we other children don’t dare stick our necks out.” The first problem here is to get Joe lucked out, and the second one is the fundamental matter of the jealousy of the other four children over inheritance money. The first problem can be han dled in two ways: one by having the executor of Father’s will step in and tell everybody—not just Joe’s wife—that it was not Fa ther’s intention that any one child get an advantage over the others. Therefore, since Joe and his wife are getting an advantage, they must start paying to the estate so much per month, or move out of Mother’s house. The second way would be for one of the. other four children to hire a lawyer to work out a trust fund arrangement for their own children. In both cases cited here the whole affair of Joe's sponging would be brought into the open— and by Impartial outsiders who wouldn't care whether Joe and his wife blew their fuses or not.
