£ PAGE SIX THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3 r 1966 SPECTATOR President Johnson's trip to Asia may give us an oppor tunity to cool off and recover our poise. However, wasn’t it our vice president who made a trip to India and thereabout, scattering a few million as he *went. So, it is within the range of probability that Pres ident Johnson will scatter more millions than the vice presi dent could imagine, for Mr. Johnson has his whole time in the presidency to prove that no man can scatter more Govern ment money than he, even tho the poor taxpayers groan in spirit and have to appeal to Poverty Relief. One may think that the whole world is crazy—and it must be so; but it may be that we shall recover and recoup— or re-something in order to live a well-ordered life again. The record of our national spending, giving and what not would make all the early nat ional leaders turn over and perhaps, try to renounce and Griffith wm FOR STATE SENATE to represent NEWBERRY, SALUDA and LEXINGTON Counties VOTE FOR EUGENE C.

Dial 276-5660 DIRECTORS: Ralph B. Baker Pinckney N. Abrams Louis C. Floyd Thomas H. Pope R. Aubrey Harley denounce us as wasteful sons of those great men who once established this nation on a foundation of common sense, more or less. Today even If the Congress doesn’t dabble in all our con cerns some ambitious Federal bureaucrat will assume and ex ercise far-reaching powers of meddling in all our concerns. I do not hesitate to declare that virtually all the program of Mr. Johnson is so far in opposition to our Constitutional principles that the trend of the day not only gives to Congress vast powers, but the President and Cabinet seem bent on hav ing the Federal Government as sume the functions of the States, and of the Cities and School districts also. Along with our supine ac quiescence in Federal assump tions of power, but our Federal Courts (some of them) seem imbued with much the same spirit of aggrandizement. Now we come to the states: they, too, are on the high road of extravagance. Sometimes it seems that we recover our san ity only when we have a i real and calamitous break and col lapse. Even so. South Carolina will have Re publicans, as well as Democrats in office, at least in most of the counties. Joe Rogers is making a good race for the Governorship on the Republican ticket; and Strom Thurmond and Albert Watson are outstanding for Congress. I think Mendel Rivers, Bryan Dorn, and Marlboro’s son, Mc Millan, are probable winners. So you see, we seem likely to have a number of Republicans to share control with the dem ocrats. In general except in such cases of meritorious and out standing service as is being rendered by Mendel Rivers, Bryan Dorn and John McMil lan the people seem somewhat tired of the National Democrat- is party. You will remember that S. C. voted a majority of 94,000 for Goldwater in the recent Pres idential election. Quite a num ber of Counties in this state have voted Republican during recent four national elections. All the talk of inflation seems more or less beside the point. All of us talk about it but what does it mean ? Recently I had a long talk with a man who was a clerk in a grocery store years ago. He recalls side bacon as selling for six and a half cents a pound; flour at three dollars and a half a barrel—and all the other things more or less in the same category of high prices today. 1 am reminded of the fact that probably only electricity is cheaper today, cheaper by far, than it was in the days of six cent salt meat. Our great pow er companies are face to face with high and higher wages, much higher coal, much higher cost of wire and poles, higher every thing; but they generate and sell electric power at only a small fraction of the price which is charged for salt ba con today. It may be that grandfather can tell you about cheese at ten cents a pound, bread at five cents a loaf, coal at four dol lars a ton and now the only preeminent product at a great ly reduced price is electric pow er. When we talk of inflation that brings the subject down to where we “live and move and have our being,” as used to be said. When the groceries, ana clothing and shoes, even ciga rettes, join the air service and sail above our reach, we feel the pinch at what w r e call In flation. Everything—rents, well to day you pay probably three times as much for rent as grandfather did. Do you remember when you could buy shoes for $3,50? Try it today. As a fact, only elec tricity is down and down, be cause of notably fine manage ment. That is enough about infla tion. It may be that you al ready knew about it or at least had a mild suspicion of it.

Well now, if I know the ladies they will so fashion even paper frocks as to make them eleg ant and expensive. Even if hub by tries to dress his lady in paper he will have to buy a dozen dresses a week and even the paper dresss will soon have fur neck-pieces! What! Now contemplate this effu sion: “You’re a bachelor, and you’re invited to Mrs. Leon Meltzer’s big dinner dan<;e in Philadelphia Saturday night. You’re to escort a lady you have never riiet. You’re to meet her at the party. I’ll be wearing a floor-length gown with a green, white and black paisley design, she tells you. I’ll be easy to spot. Don’t go. For all 100 ladies at-the af fair will be wearing floor- length gowns with green, white and black paisley designs. What’s more, the gowns are made of that new wonder fab ric: Paper. Mrs. Meltzer, an attorney’s wife with a puckish sense of humor, is sending the so-called A-line dresses this week to all her guests. She is doing it, she says, because she is intrigued with the idea of a party where all the women are dressed alike. The function could prove a field day for sociologists, but it points up something else as well: Paper clothes, talked of hopefully for some years by the paper people, are here. And how they’re here. In less than 6 months, Scott Pa per Co. has sold more than 500, 000 paper dresses, which have been available only by mail or der. (Price $1.25). Mars Man ufacturing Co. shipped 120,000 pieces of Paper apparel in June and July, and estimates that its fall line, which includes the $4 paisley model Mrs. Meltzer bought for her friends, will exceed 1,200,000 pieces. Pills- bury Co. this month start of fering a paper dress for $1 and a box top. The sky’s the limit on future production says Ronald Bard, vice president of sales of Mars, Abraham and Straus, which has been selling paper dresses for $2 to $9 at its six New York area stores, says sales are ‘astounding.’ Felix Lilen- thal and Co., a buyer for more than 200 department stores, says, ‘Every store that has put them in has done well.’ So, far the frocks are sold in only a handful of stores, the largest being A&S and Day ton’s in Minneapolis. But with in the next few days they will start appearing in dozens of other big stores, from Lord and Taylors and Gimbel’s in New York to Neiman-Marcus in Dallas to Joseph Magnin in San Francisco. Yesterday, they went on sale at New York’s Bonwit Teller and B. Altman stores. Regardless of what anyone may say the cost of a lady’s wardrobe, paper or wool or cotton, or what, not, will cost a lot of paper-^paper money, that is. you know! ANGLERS BOOST YOUR CATCH BY MAKING A "WINDOW* THROUGH THE WATER WITHOUT POLARIZING ^SUNGLASSES WITH POLARIZING ^SUNGLASSES ALL IT TAKE'S IS A GOOP PAIR OF SUNGLASSES WITH POLARIZING LENSES TO ELIMINATE REFLECTED GLARE. Like every angler who has ever wet a line, you probably dream about finding a wonderful transparent lake or pond where you can actually see right through the water and all but lift the fish you want right 0 onto your hook. The problem, of course, is to turn the shiny mirror-like sur face of the water into a gin- clear “window” which will en able you to see your catch below. It sounds impossible, but is not as difficult as you might think. All it takes is a good pair of sunglasses equipped with polarizing lenses to elimi- tiate the reflected glare. ( When the sun strikes the sur face at an angle, most of the light rays bounce off the water and produce a phenomenon called “.linearly polarized light.” This is more commonly known as reflected glare. Instead of the water appear ing as a semi-transparent me dium, the reflected glare gives its surface a shiny, unpenetra ble sheen much like the blind ing reflections off a mirror. The float on your line, your hook under water, the approaching fish — all disappear behind a screen of harsh and annoying brilliance. It doesn’t have to be that way. That blinding sheen is elimi nated from your view if you are looking through polarizing lenses. While ordinary sun glasses only darken the glare, the polarizing lenses in Cool- Ray Polaroid Sunglasses wipe out up to 98 per cent of it. The molecules in Cool-Ray Polaroid lenses are arranged, so that they act like a row of invisible. vertical bars. When reflected glare, which vibrates horizontally as it comes toward your eyes, meets the invisible molecular “picket fence,” it is stopped dead. Only the useful light reaches your eyes, so you see clearly and without strain. The annoy ing sheen is eliminated and you can actually see beneath the surface of the water. Choose your sunglasses with care, and they may help boost your catch. And, if the fish just aren’t biting, at least you’ll see comfortably.

FOREST CONSERVATION •Jv Before the 20th cen- fury, loggers chopped *their way haphazard ly through forests leaving razed areas in their wake. The Vbillion acres of natu- k *^al wilderness were '.in danger of being rseriously depleted and ruined. U#' >4^ Theodore Roosevelt stopped this waste by pushing a strong conservation policy through Congress and purchasing land for the national preserves. Today’s 750 million acres of woodlands are due to such concerted public and private con servation efforts. TV/ •HA % There are three methods for preserving and maintaining those forest resources. The modem chain saw, as devel oped and produced by Rem ington Arms, aids substanti ally in clearing land for new jseediings, frequent pruning and essential selective cutting. z i* i i • » • * A-WW// The American who is truly concerned about the future of his country sometimes wonders if everything rsn't just “inevi table.” No matter what he does or how he voets the things he objects to happen anyway. Such is the case with the de fense system of our Nation. Millions of Americans are lit- terally afraid for their lives— because of the always-present threat o fnuclear destruction at the hands of our Communist enemies. It is known that our defense program under Secre tary McNamara Is woefully in adequate. How terribly lacking it really is was described vivid ly over a recent Manion Firum broadcast by Mrs. Phyllis Sch- lafly, the well-known author and radio commentator. Here is what Mrs. Schlafly told her radio audience over broadcast No. 617: “For the past six years, the McNamara policies have been weakening our Nation’s defens es by scrapping three-fourth of our strategic bombers, aban doning overseas missile and bomber bases, scrapping three- fourths of our multi-megaton missiles, canceling Skybolt, Pluto, Orion and other wonder ful new U. S. weapons, and refusing to produce the Nike X, an advanced manned bomb er. “But Congress has broken out in open revolt against these McNamara policies. The House Armed Services Committee un animously issued a report which was an across-the-board indictment of McNamara’s stra tegic disarmament of America. The Committee recommended appropriations for the Nike R anti-missile system 'McNamara has been blocking, for the fol low-on strategic bomber he has been trying to kill, for the nuclear surface ships he has been stolling, and for the mil itary space developments he has been delaying. “ The Senate Preparedness Committee ' Investigating Sub committee produced evidence of the ammunition and equip ment shortages in Viet Nam and made McNamara admit his misleading figures on our “combat ready” divisions. Chairman John Stennis further accused McNamara of making an ‘unwarranted gamble with our national security at a time that we can ill afford it.’ Senator John McClellan has announced he will soon reopen hearings on the TFX contract which McNamara awarded to the highest bidder, instead of j the lowest bidder.” Mrs. Schlafly’s testimony gives little comfort to the con- J cerned Americans we are talk ing about. What, after all, can you do about the situation ? McNamara is unelected. To make matters worse, a Penta gon survey reveals that 66 out of 100 Americans don’t even know that our defense program is inadequate. They are under the mistaken impression that we already have an anti-missile program. But Mrs. Schlafly’s is not a voice of doom. On her broad cast, she gave great hope to those who want to defend their Nation against the enemy’s nu clear designs. It is, she' said, our courageous Congressmen who are leading the way in the effort to repudiate McNamara and reverse his policies. It is up to the American voters to back them up in the 1966 electione and to send more patriots to Congress who will vote for a strong military defense”. i 4 s l ' 'i H r "...
