South Carolina Motorists are
urged to drive with their vehicle
headlamps lighted July 4 and 5 in
the interest of greater highway
safety, Chief Highway Commissi
oner Silas N. Pearman said today.
Mr. Pearman said officers of the
Highway Patrol throughout the
State have been instructed to burn
their lights during the two-day
period, and he asked other motor
ists to do likewise as a reminder
to others of the need of safe driv
ing.
Travel during the holiday week
end is expected to be especially
heavy, the official said, and extra
driving precautions will be nec
essary if a high traffic injury and
death toll is to be avoided.
Traffic fatalities in South Caro
lina are averaging approximately
55 more this year than for the
corresponding period of 1963.
In an effort to keep down traf
fic accidents during the July 4th
period, all patrolmen have been
assigned to duty from July 3 thru
July 6. All available radar equip
ment will be used for the enforce
ment of speed laws, and officers
have been instructed to be espec
ially alert for fast, reckless and
intoxicated drivers.
Major highways, particularly
those leading to beaches and other
resort areas, will be heavily pat
rolled throughout the week end,
and a special effort will be made
to apprehend drivers found vio
lating traffic laws.

ARE YOU
LISTENING?
Recently I heard of a woman
who tied a knot in the sheet on
her bed when she heard an owl
hooting in the night, and I was
1 completely dumfounded at her
superstition. A little investigation
shows, however, that much of this
world in which we live is very
superstitious. Many people fear
Friday the 13th; dread to see a
black cat run across their path;
refuse to walk under a ladder; or
sweep dirt out of the back door
after the sun goes down.
Likewise, to many, Christianity
is no more than a superstition in
their lives. They believe that pray
er is nothing more than a “totem”
pole that a man uses when he feels
insecure. They believe that faith
is a spiritual rabbit’s foot or good
luck charm that a person calls on
when he is in doubt. But all dis
covery and progress have resulted
from faith rather than supersti
tion.
Prior to the days of Columbus,
man was superstitious about the
shape of the earth. Through faith
he proved them to be wrong. Rob
ert Fulton labored for years be
lieving his steamboat would revo
lutionize the shipping industry.
His friends thought it all folly.
Thru faith he proved them wrong.
Thru faith we have the incandes
cent lamp, radar, television, radio,
jet propulsion, penicillin, and many
other devices of wonder. They
were all brought about thru faith.
John, in writing his letter, tells
us the same thing. It isn’t enough
to tell a person that you love him.
Such love is proven thru faith in
that person and service toward his
needs. The Bible says: “My little
children, let us not love in word,
neither in tongue; but in deed and
in truth.” This is the solution to
the problems of the world.
Are you listening?
Rev. and Mrs. S. M. Atkinson
have moved to 910 Caldwell street
to make their home.

Auto Ownership
Up In State
Automobile ownership in South
Carolina in the last 25 years has
nearly quadrupled.
The upward trend began in the
late 1930’s, leveled off during the
war years and then began a re
newed climb in the late 1940’s.
In 1937, there were only 284,000
registered vehicles in the state.
By 1941 the number had risen to
370,000. After going through the
lean war years, in which practic
ally no automobiles were manufac
tured in this country, net registra
tion in 1945 totaled 336,000, a de
cline of about 34,000 vehicles. By
1949, responding to a heavy pub
lic demand for new transportation
and the resumption of production
of peace-time goods, vehicle regis
trations rose to 524,000.
By 1953, vehicle ownership in
the state was up to 700,000. Ten
years later in 1963 it reached ap
proximately 900,000 and is expect
ed to reach a million for the first
time in 1964. The years from 1963
to 1963 each showed substantial
and relatively constant growth in
vehicle purchases.
These figures represent automo
biles, trucks, trailers and miscel
laneous wheeled units such as mo
torcycles. In all the years mention
ed in these figures, the automobile
in no year represented less than
76 per cent of the total vehicles. In
most years automobiles represent
about 80 per cent of the total ve
hicles on the road in this state.
