• • • by the way Yol. 32—No. 38 Newberry, S. C. 29108, Thursday, January 9, 1969 By DORIS A. SANDERS TIS THE SEASON The old carol says of Yule- time, “Tis the season to be jolly.” That’s past now, and “tis the season to he sad" as we are so rudely reminded by the income tax forms appear ing in our mail boxes. It didn't help much to hear one of the Nixon men say the other day that there didn’t seem to be much chance of dropping the ten percent sur charge on federal income tax. The only thin*; we might hope for is that the incoming presi dent will at least try to hold expenditures in line with in come. This could easily be done by cutting out some of the fan tastic so-called poverty pro grams which for the most part only provide fancy salaries to administrators of same. Although Mr. Nixon talked financial economy during the campaign, there is a vast chasm between campaign talk and :n-uffice action. Nixon has been a politician for many years He no doubt owes poli tical favors to many persons. VV • can only hope that he will remember that he was elected by moderates and conservatives and certainly not by liberals and radical black leaders. The prognostication is that there will be a very slow turn away from socialism during the Nixon administration. We hope tiie prognosticators are right. (.ODD NEWS It is always a pleasure to publish something good con cerning young people because, after all, the majority of the young people of this genera tion are no worse than the young people of generations past. It only seems that way because the news media play up the “sensational" far out of proportion to its import ance. There are always some bad apples in the barrel, but for the most part, the teen-agers of our city are industrious, inter ested m civic affairs, willing to lend a hand to help others. They are active in their churches, active in the organi zations of their schools.
