Kendall sales
on increase
Boston, July 11—The Kendall
company increased second quar
ter sales and held income close
to the 1967 figure. President
Harold T. Marshall announced
today. Kendall manufactures
hospital and health-care prod
ucts.
Sales of $47,530,000 were
5.8 per cent ahead of 1967 sales
for the same period, and earn
ings reached $1,947,000 or 60
cents per share, compared with
adjusted 1967 profits for the
quarter of $2,017,000 or 62 cents
per share.
Kendall’s earnings were a-
chieved, Marshall said, “despite
higher taxes on income reflect
ing the recently enacted 10 per
ct. tax surcharge which reduc
ed second quarter earnings by
5 cents per share.
The company’s 1967 figures
have been restated to include
the acquisition of the Diana
Manufacturing Co. s
Kendall’s earnings as report
ed previously for the second
quarter of 1967 were $1,920,000
or 60 cents per share, on sales
of $42,500,000.
Commenting on the future,
Marshall said “New production
facilities that have come on
stream over the past six months
are now attaining efficient
production that will provide ad-
itional output in the last half
of 1968.

(Continued from page 1)
For independence, not state
hood, for Puerto Rico. For full
disclosure of finances of all
public employees. For restrict
ing the right to vote to those
who receive no regular checks
from federal, state or local
governments. Why should the
accused be members of the
jury ?
For the right to keep and
bear arms, as expressly con
veyed in the Second Amend
ment to our Constitution. I’ve
said it before and I’ll say it
again: the time to buy a gun
is when it becomes unlawful
to own one. For outlawing the
American Communist party
and outlawing all trade with
Communist nations and resum
ing trade with Rhodesia. For
Bob Jones University.
For finding out why automa
tion replaces all kinds of work
ers except government work
ers, and then greatly reducing
Federal Government “workers”
from the present three-million
level and putting a permanent
ceiling on the number of Fed
eral Government employees.
For a moratorium on all new
public works projects until the
Vietnam war is ended, the
budget is balanced, inflation
is halted, the dollar is stabil
ized and our financial house
is put in order. For closing the
credibility gap by electing
honest men who will tell the
American people the truth,
no matter how painful. And
FOR impeaching all who
DON’T. For insisting that
England, France, Soviet Rus
sia and all other “allies” start
paying their indebtedness to us
NOW and continue payment on
a regular businesslike basis,
plus interest and in dollars or
gold.
When Teddy Roosevelt was
President a North African ban
dit named Raisuli kidnapped a
naturalized American of Greek
extraction named Perdicaris.
President Roosevelt didn’t ne
gotiate, excoriate or hesitate.
He immediately sent gunboats
to stand offshore and sent
Raisuli this telegram: “Perdi
caris alive or Raisuli dead.”
Citizen Perdicaris was freed,
of Course, and the world res
pected America. I’m for getting
the “Pueblo” and her 82 crew
members back alive now. or
getting North Korea.
For all good and necessary
change, to meet changing con
ditions and needs. But eternal
principles, eternal socialists
like Hubert Humphrey, and
human nature DON’T change.
I’m for “Let George do it”—
George Wallace.
For restricting political con
tributions to individuals—all
of whom and which shall be
made public. For refusing to
“recognize" any government
which won’t let its citizens
leave. That includes practically
all Communist nations For re
pudiating the Nuclear Test
Ban Treaty and the Space
Treaty, repealing the Arms
Control and Disarmament Act,
ending the so-called Non-Pro
liferation system. For placing
all military aid to so - called
allies on a realistic share-the-
cost basis. For deporting alien
subversives.
For abolishing “War On
Poverty” legislation along with
the Office of Economic Oppor
tunity. For opposing all at
tempts to enact any wage-
price control legislation. For
repealing the minimum wage”
law (the best single thing
which could be done for the
Negro). For prohibiting indus
try-wide bargaining. For bet
ter than Wirtz. For abolishing
the National Labor Relations
Board and replacing it with
a labor court similar to a tax
court. For making • the anti
trust laws now applicable to
business equally applicable to
labor unions.
For impeaching any future
President who shows his gall
bladder operation or any other
operation on TV. For removing
Franklin D. Roosevelt’s pic
ture from the six cent stamp
(and all other stamps) and
substituting a picture of Lyn
don Johnson’s gall bladder op
eration. We should always pre
sent our leaders in the best
possible light. For beginning
regular, systematic payments
on the national debt.
For more private Christian
schools and NO federalized
schools. For returning complete
control of public schools to the
state and local governments.
For educating not SOCIETY
but INDIVIDUALS For again
teaching the Bible, patriotism,
morality, decency and the mul
tiplication table in all schools,
public and private. For “Fari
quae sentiat” (say what you
think). For standing up and
being counted for what’s right,
even if you’re the ONLY one
standing and feel like a germ
at an exterminator’s conven
tion. A people who refuse to
stand up and say “no!” will
someday have to say “yes”
on their knees.
For a law requiring doubtful
cases among Congressmen and
Senators to take a saliva test
before being allowed on the
floor of the House or Senate.
Is sober driving any more im
portant than sober voting?
Even as today, one of Pres
ident Lincoln’s most annoying
problems was the steady flow
of office-seekers who pestered
him. Lincoln once said he had
read about a certain king who
wanted to go hunting and asked
the court minister if it would
rain. The minister told him the
weather would be good. Setting
out, the royal party met a farm
er riding a jackass. He warned
the king it was going to rain.
The king laughed and went on,
but no sooner had he begun
hunting than a heavy downpour
drenched him and his party. He
went back, threw out the minis
ter and called for the farmer.
“Tell me how you knew it would
rain.” “I did not know, Your
Majesty. It’s not me, it’s my
jackass. He puts his ear for
ward when it’s going to rain.”
The king sent the farmer away
and had the jackass brought
and put in place of the minister.
“It was here,” Lincoln said, ^
that the king made a great mis
take.” “How so?” he was asked.
“Ever since that time, every
jackass wants an office!”
Come November 5, let us turn
all the jackasses out.

Hope And Help For The
Alcoholic
Fairview Center is the oldest complete treatment
center for alcoholics in South Carolina. Founded
in 1951, it was the first resource specializing in
complete treatment of the alcoholic or excessive
drinker.
The hospital division specializes in detoxifica
tion, or withdrawal of alcohol, and physical re
covery. This requires five days and costs $100.00,
payable as an admission fee.
The rehabilitation division offers a 30 day
program of re-education, psychological testing,
and religious guidance. The cost is $250.00 for
those able to pay. Those unable to pay can sign
an affidavit to that effect and receive help based
on the ability of the charity fund to pay the cost.
The more the alcoholic is convinced he is abfe
to handle his problem without help, the more
desperately he needs help.
