INFAMOUS!

Senator Hardwick lamely defends
his continued and persistent advocacy
of the volunteer system by declaring
that if his proposition of paying the
soldiers 500 a month had been adopt
ed the selective draft act would have
been unnecessary.
This is even more infamous than
Mr.. Hardwick's original position.
1t is a deliberate and fragrant in
suit to the manhood of the country.
Breathes there a fond father any
where who would want his son to
90 into the business of killing peo-
ple-of killing even Germans for
800, or even $500, a month?
Is there a man anywhere, young or
old, who is so depraved that he
would hire himself out Hessian-like
for 500 for the sole purpose of slay>
ing other men?
The kind Of men who would have
responded to such a call would have
been that fast disappearing type Of
thugs, gunner, and assassins who
commit any crime for pay Thank
God, there are few Of that kind in the
United States, and mighty few Of
them in the South Such as there are
may be found in the penitentiariel
where they properly belong.
Those grandfathers Of the south
ern boys who are now On the battle
fields of France did not fight for th'
Confederacy for so much a month

LISTEN TO THIS, FARMERS?

On the proposition to sell to tht
farmers at cost the surplus of tbs
government nitrate plants, Senator
Hardwlck, speaking on the floor o
the United Senate, according to tn,
Congressional Record, said:
IF all the farmers in Georgia
were to ask me to vote for this
amendment, I would not do it. I
will not interfere with the bust
ness of the manufacturers of fer
tilizers in this way. The farmers
anyway. remind me of lot of

and shoot down men of their owl
kith and kin, men of their own race
and language, for a sordid considera
ton. They fought for home and mo
Their, for native land, for principle
for honor. And that is what the
boys in France are fighting for, il
part, They are fighting for all thai
and, more besides, they are fighting
for the salvation of the world, fol
civilization, for Democracy, for the
future of all that is good and preci-
Gus They are fighting in the holi-
est war this world has ever known
Yet Senator Hardwick would have
them put all of that aside and go out
and kill people for the sake of a few
dollars! 1t is astonishing that the
man would stand before self-respect-
ing citizens of this state and enun-
ciate this policy.
Whatever MS Gerense of the vol
unteer system, it amounts at this
time to a continued attack on the
plan which is now the law of the
land and which has been proven to
be the very best system ever devils
ed for mobilizing an army.
Can any doubt that only the selec-
tive draft plan enabled us to have
over in France. in fighting form. only
fifteen months after the actual decla-
ration of war. more than 100000
soldiers?
Does any one believe for a second
that an army Of that size could have
been raised and sent abroad under
the volunteer system?
Doesn't everyone know. as a mat
ter of fact. that the volunteer sys-
TEN was tried, and that it failed, dur
ing The Iexican troubles, just prior
to the break with Germany, when
,his country, in apprehension of
eventual international hostilities,
was doing everything within its pow
er tc assemble a larger number of
troops?
Senator Hardwick's persistent at
tack on the selective draft act -
nothing more or less. in effect, than
German propaganda. The Kaiser him
self could not devise a propaganda
mo-e ins;dious and more infamous,
and i'll this way Senator Hardwick is
only ser, ng the Kaiser's policy.
The Times Recorder cannot believe
that the patriotic people of this state
will much longer tolerate Senator
Hardwick's attitude and remarks.
Their impotence and disgust and
indignation may break bounds before
September the eleventh. We would
advise Senator Hardwick to pu. on
the brakes and travel a bit slower
than he has been going here recently!

WHO'S WHO

LOSSES TO BE LARGER.

The American casualties have been
the smallest ever sustained by an
army of such magnitude participat-
ing in fighting so prolonged and VIC

Yet the aggressiveness, the daring,
the efficiency of the Americans have
aroused the admiration of those SUI
perb soldiers who have been battling
against the Germans for more than
four years.
However, it must be expected now
that Pershing's casualty reports will

army and the taking over by our
boys of a considerable portion of the
battlefront. They will now face the
enemy by themselves, without being
brigaded with the English and French
and Italian troops. They will bear
the shock all to themselves. and nat
urally their losses will be larger in
proportion than they have been.
AS the war progresses, our share
in it will inevitably become bulkier
until in the end, no doubht, the Amer
lean contingent will be shouldering
the burden. However, this is wei
The A:iIes have saved the world fo:

THE LABOR BUREAU.

The discomfort with the labor err
ployment agency recently opened
here under the auspices of the Cham,
Der of Commerce may be readily eK,
planned
This agency was established by
citizens OF Sumter county agreeing
l. support it in the belief that it
would afford them a solution for the
aaany and complicated labor troubles
'sey hl,e ucen experiencing. Not only
the manufacturers in the city but
the large employers Of farm labor
IT the county rallied to the PROPOSE
ton. all doing so in the idea that the
bureau would be maintained for
their relief and benefit
on the con rory. the bureau WIS NJ
sooner opened, with men from the
state department and from depart
ments of the federal government in
charge, than it began to send loacl
labor out of town. OF course, there
was an immediate storm of protest
The people here did not want-and
do not want now-an agency to take
what labor there is now left and
send - clse%nece, and so they h''s
vigorously expressed themselves
about the matter, voicing their de-
cision to abandon all further support
of the bureau.
The records show that the bureau
has so far sent twenty-nine men to
Brunswick for work in the picric
plant, giving that matter more at
jentton t0aa the proposition of lelp-
ing the Sumter county manufactur-
ers and farmers with their labor
troubles. Naturally, therefore, if the
bureau is to be conducted here those
who are locally interested want it
conducted for their advantage They
do not want to contribute to the
maintenance of anything that will
take any more labor away from them.
However. mere is this fact to be re-
membered: The government wants la
Dor for the picric plant, and is going
to get that labor, regardless. 1t is
going to get the proper labor if it
has to come into the various commu
mites and advertise for it and make
a detailed search for it. It is going
to enforce the work or fight" law
besides Isn't it better, then, to CO.
operate with the officials and assist
them in obtaining labor-labor such
as is not satisfied here, and would
eventually leave, anyhow-than to
antagonize them and forfeit their
friendly cooperation? Isn't it better
to have them with US rather than
against Is?
