FAIRVIEW CENTER
RIDGEWAY S. C.
Has served South Carolina for
17 years as a resource for help
ing alcoholics and excessive
drinkers. More than 11,000 men
and women have sought help
here.
The rehabilitation division
operates on fees and donations.
Those .able to pay all or part
of the cost of their treatment
are expected to do so. Others
are given the same treatment
without cost. This is a 30-day
program.
Our hospital division has no
charity fund and operates en
tirely on fees. For years we
have limited the admission fee
to $85.00 which covered phy
sician’s fee, drugs, room and
board, and nursing care for
four days. No patient in our
hospital has ever had to em
ploy a special nurse.
We regret to announce that
during the first quarter of
1968 the hospital lost nearly
$1,000.00 in operations. The
Board of Trustees has there
fore instructed the management
to raise the admission fee to
$100.00, but to give five days
treatment for this fee. This
goes into effect May 1st. Un
til then the admission fee will
remain at $85.00.

BY THE WAY
( Continued from page 1)
“Our boys are dying every
day for our country and its
principles. Each individual
should have the right to mourn
accordingly but to have the
President impose upon an un
willing people this outlandish
‘national day of mourning’ is
incredible. Senator Thurmond
has been the only people’s rep
resentative who has spoken the
truth concerning events in
these matters. Would that we
had a thousand more like him,
not afraid to speak out the
truth less he lose a vote.”
And in my own mail comes
the following expressions, first
from California:
“I am sorry that Martin L-
King was murdered for it has
made a martyr of him. Every
where he went violence broke
out. I do believe if he had lived
and had his camp-out in Wash
ington in April, it would have
been his finish. To me it is
sickening how TV and the
newspapers are comparing him
to God.”
From Oklahoma:
“Never has there been a
more masterful Communist
production than the killing and
burial of MLK. Although I
cannot prove that a Communist
pulled the murder, the act could
not have served the Communist
cause better. The manner in
which the TV news media
jumped to the Communist cause
makes one wonder if they had
advance notice to be ready for
the ‘masterful production.’
The readines‘s with which so
many preachers and politicians
jumped when the string was
pulled is ample reason for
doubting that they can be so
ignorant or so stupid. Is it
any wonder their loyalties are
being questioned ? . . . How
long is it going to take white
Americans to backhand their
gutless politicians with the
bare brute force necessary to
shock some sense into their
actions ? ”
BRAVE MAYOR
Mayor Daley of Chicago has
let it be known in no uncertain
terms that he expects criminals
to be treated as criminals. Of
course the bleeding hearts say
“No, you shouldn’t punish a
man just because he set fire
to a building in which people
are living.” But to Mayor Da
ley, these people are murder
ers—be they black or white—
just as much as if they pulled
a trigger or plunged a knife
into the heart of their neigh
bor.
Even while deploring Mayor
Daley’s order to “shoot to kill
if necessary,” one alderman of
Chicago admitted that had it
been known in advance of the
recent riot that this would be
done, there wouldn’t have been
so much trouble in Chicago.
Just give us a few more
brave mayors and governors of
the calibre of Mayor Daley and
courts which will not turn
criminals free, then maybe
eventually law and order will
be restored in this country.

Guardsmen get
special plates
A bill introduced by Senators
Bristow and Morris to provide
special license plates for South
Carolina National Guardsmen,
was ratified last week in Col
umbia.
The new plates will carry the
words “National Guard” and
possibly the figure of a Min-
uteman. In addition to recogni
tion of Guardsmen the dis
tinctive plates will facilitate a
Guardsmen’s getting through
traffic in time of emergency or
disaster.
S. C. Adjutant General Of
fice representatives and offi
cials of the State Highway De
partment will confer to estab
lish the effective date and other
administrative details. The S.
C. Highway Department will
determine the numbers which
the plates will carry.
Under the new legislation,
tags may not be displayed on
unauthorized vehicles and the
Guardsmen will be required to
turn in the plates when being
discharged from the Guard.
Violators of the provision will
face a $100 fine or 30 days in
jail. The penalty also applies
to anyone giving fraudulent
information in making applica
tion for the plates.
Passage of the legislation
culminates an effort of several
years for authorization of the
license plates.
COLLEGE GETS
