PAGE FOUR THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA Workers Find Rights Going Under CR Bill This copy has been written by John C. Satterfield, past-presid ent (1961-62) of the American Bar Association: It's really the little guy who comes out on the short end of the administration’s civil rights bill. Washington observers are beginn ing to notice a reaction from work ers who believe that their job se curity is in danger. The working man is worried. The typical man wants his rights and he wants them for everybody. Yet this bill threatens some startling proposals. The ul timate power of hiring and firing is put into the hands of federal inspectors. Moreover, under the civil rights bill, the federal inspector has no official interest in how well a nan is doing his job, or how long he's been doing it. It doesn’t mat ter whether a man has been try ing to mind his own business and get his job done. At the whim of a federal inspector: He may be fired. Hie government will have au thority to deny him promotions. His seniority rights will be jeop ardized. ■ His union contract may be set aside. And his apprenticeship program may be ignored. The only thing that matters un der the civil rights bill is the past and present hiring practices of his employer. Any kind of discrimina tion, or any practice which unin tentionally has the effect of “dis crimination” must be eliminated. In a tight job market, this means that a federal inspector must step in and order job holders to relin quish their positions to those who have been “discriminated” against. The civil rights bill gives broad powers to the federal inspector to enforce his decrees. If an employ er pleads for the interests of his ’ present employees, then any fed eral contracts could be cut off. Thus the employees’ grievances could be eliminated by eliminating the employers. There are other weapons in the civil-rights arsenal, as well. Al most every business these days is receiving federal benefits or is de pendent on firms that are receiv ing federal benefits. Any direct assistance, of course, could be cut off. Banks that are part of the Federal Reserve System—or that have their deposits ’ insured by FDIC—could be required to recall loans and mortgages from firms that don’t meet the new federal decrees. With this tremendous economic pressure, the federal government could require nearly any employer to discharge innocent employees and hire those who are specially designated. And the designation can be made not only on the basis of race, but of religion too. A man whose race meets the federal reg ulations may be fired because his religion does not. In all this, his union is power less to protect him. If the union cannot supply craftsmen of ^he designated race and religion, then the government could require the employer to hire non-union men. If necessary, unskilled labor must be hired and trained, while sur plus, experienced craftsmen but of the wrong race or religion re main idle. The union itself could be inves tigated to see whether its mem bership practices meet federal re quirements. Its history and rec ords could be examined, and its officers questioned. If the union doesn’t measure up, then it could lose its certification from the Nat ional Labor Relations Board. None of this control squares with the announced purpose of the bill, that is, to protect the rights of all citizens. But the provisions of the bill plainly set up such pow ers. Legal analysts are not sur prised that this is the case, for the government is trying to reg ulate hiring and firing for reas ons- that have nothing to do with the job itself. After the hectic events of re cent weeks, the special interest groups are once more pressuring for the civil rights bill. Neverthe less ,many Congressmen are still reluctant to act upon a measure that places so much emphasis on federal control. The outraged re action of workingmen is giving them support for their position, but their final stand will depend on the response they get in their mail. Program Set The 4-H Automotive project will be added to the 4-H program in Newberry county this year, Coun ty Agent A. F. Busby announces. The new project will give pros pective drivers a broader under standing of the use of automo biles, their care and operation. The program will not teach driv ing, Busby reports.

SHOWN WITH THE NATIONAL CHAMPION Butterfat Producer are, from left, Henry Longshore, Newberry-Laurens DHIA-DHIR Supervisor; C. H. Lomas, Clemson College Extension dairy spec ialist in charge of DHIA and official testing programs in S. C.; David Waldrop, owner, Waldrop 1 Jersey farm and Jimmy Kesler, manager of the Waldrop Jersey herd. The picture was taken on December 18, final test for “Jolly’s” record lactation. By AL BUSBY In today’s space age anything can happen. It just has in the Jer sey breed. From a herd little known to most of the Jersey world, located at Silverstreet, in Newberry county, South Carolina, comes a new National butter-fat record. Vanity Sultan Queen, or “Jolly” as she is affectionately called, on Christmas Day complet ed a 306 day, 2x DHIR Record of 17,290 pounds of milk and 1,212 pounds of fat. This record began at 9 years, 5 months is the highest milk and butterfat record ever es tablished in the Jersey breed in South Carolina. It is the highest butterfat record ever made for all breeds of dairy cattle in South Carolina. Credit for “Jolly’s” record- breaking achievement must be jointly shared by both she and her proud manager, Jimmy Kesler. With only 4 years of dairy exper ience, Jimmy has become a real cowman as well as enthusiastic Jersey breeder. “Turning the herd over to Jimmy after his marriage to daughter Lynda, proved one of the best decisions I’ve ever made,” proudly admits owner, Dave Wal drop. The 100 cow herd was enroll ed in the newly formed county DHIA Association soon after Jim my assumed its management. At that time the herd average was only 6,700 pounds of milk and 399 pounds of fat. Now, only 4 years later, the 143 cow herd average is 9,718 pounds of milk and 505 pounds of fat. The herd has been enrolled in DHIR for the past 3 years. Now back to “Jolly” for more about her success story. Evidence that she was a Jersey with the ‘Will To Milk” was first noted when “Jolly” completed her first DHIA record with over 11,000 pounds of milk and over 500 pounds of fat in 305 days as a 7 year old. Her very next lactation, DHIR, was 14,380 pounds milk, 768 pounds fat, 305 days. Calving again in February, 1963, she was soon milking better than ever. That’s when Jimmy decided she might have the potential of making a new record. Jimmy quickly points out, however, that “Jolly” had very little preferred treatment during her record set ting lactation. She remained with the herd during her entire lacta tion and received the same quality grain ration, grazing, hay and sil age as the remainder of the herd. “The only difference,” says Jimmy “is that she always had a good appetite.” A high of 24 pounds of 16 per cent grain ration per day was her limit of grain feeding. Just a word about “Jolly’s” ped igree. She is sired by Standard Hari Butch, a bull bought as a yearling from Ward Crim, o f Moore, S. C. 'who for many years was an outstanding Jersey breed er and although now retired, is still a lifetime Director of the South Carolina Jersey Cattle club. Her dam, Royal Sheen Design, is a daughter of Sparkle Blonde Design, a bull that has sired a great number of outstanding daughters in Newberry county. Upon assuming management of the Waldrop herd, Jimmy set his goal for a 10,000 pound herd av erage milk production. At that time no on except Jimmy believed he could accomplish it. “Now,” says County Agent A1 Busby, who is also secretary of the S. C. Jer sey Cattle Club “Jimmy has just about proven he can do whatever he sets his sights on.” All of us in South Carolina are justly proud of this great accomplishment and we pay our sincere tribute to Jimmy and to “Jolly.” A real success story!
