These so-called poverty pro grams end civil rights bills no doubt bring in a certain num ber of bloc votes—even a large numbei—but it is refreshing to know that the majority of vot ers are not fooled by the prom ises of Utopian existence. That Utopia must be underwritten and the taxpayers are finally realizing that they are the ones who are underwriting it. All they need do is look at their paychecks—at the tremendous sums deducted for federal in come tax- for social security tax—and the worst is yet to come. The taxpayers are beginning to tire of the way their money j is being wasted on nonsense “poverty” programs. We can 1 only hope they get tired en ough to throw out the free- spending Democrats in Novem ber and elect Republicans who believe in the dignity of the individual—not in the pamper ing of a bloc vote. i Jougias: “A private porson has no standing to obtain even limit ed access.

When completed, the plant will have a capacity to process 12,000 turkeys in a attract food processing facil ities to South Carolina. “We welcome this outstand ing company to South Caro lina,” the governor continued, “and we look forward to a long! rege, Nebraska. and local levels who worked long and hard in helping Oco- ma find the ideal location” for its new plant.

S. Highway 76 and 76 by-pass has been taken over by the Council of Newberry Garden Clubs as a beautification project and Mrs. Sadie Crooks will serve as chairman. Mrs. Crooks stated that the Club cleaned up the area earlier in the Spring, and the highway department has now installed posts to keep automobiles from driving in the area. The area wiH be planted in the near future, Mrs. Crooks said. She is shown above inspecting the posts which were recently install ed. (Sunphoto) BIRTHDAYS July 2: Thomas Morris, Sam P.

Grisso said that the hand- cuffng of police in the inves tigation of crime will force police departments to retrain their personnel. The cost, he said will be prohibitive in many cases and the Federal govern ment will undoubtedly seek to make funds available. “With the coming of Federal aid to police departments, we can expect guidelines and red tape which will be tantamount to Federal control. We must not let this happen.” Grisso added that the Sup reme court ruling, that as soon as the police take a person in to custody they must warn him of his right to remain silent and have a lawyer, will make law enforcement extremely hard in high crime rate areas. — “As a former solicitor. of the 10th Judicial Circuit, I sympathize fully with the problem the police have in these areas. This new ruling will mean that fewer will be convicted. There are many crimes where confession is the only means of determining guilt.” Grisso noted that law en forcement response across the country was generally one of dismay because the decision was more sweeping than ex pected. “The dangerous act of ar resting a criminal,” he said, “will become even more dan gerous. The police must be specially trained to stay within the tight limits the Supreme Court has placed upon them. Where will the money for re training come from since the city and state are hard pressed to keep police salaries up to standards ? ” (Continued on page 4) William Neel, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gilder Neel of Route 3, proudly displays the first two cotton blooms reported in the county this year.

(Photo by Dominick) Clarkson Reviews Industrial Growth The following statement was made by John F., Clarkson member of the State Develop ment Board, following announce ment that Ocoma will locate a new plant in Newberry: There is a time worn adage that says in effect “Beggars cannot be choosers.” Four years ago after some ten years of preparation and planning, a lot of people in Newberry County went to work seriously to secure a well rounded industrial expan sion for Newberry County. Had we gone out and employed the most expensive industrial en gineering firm in the country we could not have accomplished a better job than has been done over the past four years. In the beginning the Whit mire area was sold to one of the largest drapery manufacturing concerns in the country. This plant started out expecting to employ a maximum of 200 peo ple, and now it has doubled in size and employment. This fine company has contributed a great deal to the economy of the Whit mire area and Newberry county. The next year no finer plant could have been chosen to come into the Newberry area than Shakespeare. This fine company with its fine hundred year back ground was expected to employ a maximum of 125 people and their employment has now pass ed the 200 mark. We know from past experience with Shake speare that this will be an ever expanding industry. Their en gineers tell us that the products they will be making next year are probably not on their draw ing boards at the present time. Quickly following Shake speare’s announcement, Owens- Illinois. a real “Blue Chip” com pany, chose Newberry as a site for their corrugated box oper- ation. They came into Newberry with a study that they were coming into a potential market of about 15 million per year. We understand that this market potentiality has been increased to over 30 Million Dollars per year. To completely balance the economy of Newberry County and the Piedmont area of South Carolina, after 26 months of negotiation the Ocoma Foods division of Consolidated Foods Corporation will build the lar gest and most complete turkey processing plant in the world. We have been in constant com- petion with three other states in securing this plant. During this 26 months period, the growth of Ocoma Foods has been tremendous. At the an nouncement Friday it was stat ed that Ocoma Foods has al ready sold more than the New berry plant can possibly pro duce. Much engineering, thought and study has gone into the planning of this plant. We have been told that the interior will be as clean and sanitary as the operating rooms of large hos pitals. When the decision was finally made three weeks ago that New berry had been selected, the Board of Directors of Consol idated Foods asked General Mark W. Clark to make the announcement from his home in Charleston. General Clark has been a director of Consol idated Foods for the past sev eral years and is held in high regard and esteem by the offi cials and Board of Directors. Since this announcement affects not only Newberry County but the whole Piedmont area of three states, they decided that he should have the honor of making this announcement. In his statement General Clark was high in his praise for the tremendous amount of work done by the people of Newberry County, the State Development Board, and the officials of Clemson University. Ocoma Foods will mean much to the 500 people who will be employed. In addition to this, millions of dollars will be added to the agricultural economy of this area. With the textile in dustry which has been the back bone of our economy for many years, Newberry County will now have the best industrial ba lance of any county in South Carolina. We should all be thankful. We should all now work to keep all of our indus tries happy and glad that they chose Newberry.
