BREEDl\ What about the race for Go vernor of S. C " The time is right upon us So what is what 9 Since I am confined by a com bination of blindness and lame ness I have time to think over politics el the State'. As I sec the situation with my blind eyes, here it is A man 1 have long admired and who is still a member of Con gress and he is the Republican candidate for governor- Albert Watson. Mr Watson seems to have read many of my articles and he generously endorsed them 1 list'd to hear from him occasionally m Columbia. 1 am told that Mr Watson is a na me of Sumter County. 1 have heard that some master politi cal strategist has prepared a plan to elect Mr Watson gover nor and then he would be a candidate for C. S Senator in the next vacancy That will give us two Republicans in the Se- nate-Strom Thurmond and Al bert Watson. They would be a very fine and forceful pair repre senting us in the U. S. Senate. 1 think they would serve us admirably. The first step would be to elect Mr. Watson governor of our state. I repeat what I have often said. That Strom Thurmond is one of the ablest workers in the Senate, So Strom and Watson would give us two of the best workers in the Se nate. Are you not glad that you live in South Carolina? Charles Town Landing has had over 250,000 visitors since the opening. Mr. and Mrs, Billy Bolding and their children of Oak Grove, La. were the ones who brought the number to 250.000. They were shown spe cial attention. Do you attend Sunday School? The newspapers told us early last week that Nassar, Presi dent of Egypt, had died. A re cent Sunday School lesson told something about Egypt I may astonish you by saying that Egypt has been a big nation since early days in the Bible. The Sons of Jacob went from Canaan to Egypt to buy grain. There they found Joseph, their brother, now the second man in the Empire and he was the one they had sold into slavery. All these thousands of years Egypt has continued as a Na tion. Since the early days of Egypt many great Empires and Kingdoms have risen and fallen but Egypt still exists. In recent years Egypt has ta ken the part of Arabia against the black country on the Medi terranean. and is still very much alive. The death of President Nas sar may bring about great con fusion among the Nations along the Mediterranean. The United States, England, France and probably Turkey may become involved.
