The MOST IMPORTANT OFFICE.

Greenville Piedmont.
During the recent session Of the
Saluda Baptist Association, somebody
onered resolution requesting the
judges of South Carolina to imnose
caain gang sentences on all violators
OF the prohibition law. At this iunc-
eure' I. l.. Clinkscales, Jr., mem
Der OF the House of Representatives
from Anderson county, according 70
the Rev. D. Weston Hiott in Tho
Easley Progress, "made hit and =
home run" when he said in sub
stance:
You blame the legislature for not
passing more stringent laws to make
prohloltlon a success. You come to
tne association and pass resolutions
You go back home and vote for and
eject whiskey men to go to the leois-
azure and of course whiskey men
VIII not vote against liquor and that
IS tne reason we have no more str;n-
gent laws to enforce prohibition"
upon this the Rev. Mr. Hiott tbus
comments:
He told the truth; we could NOT
uei'y IT, If the Baptists, Methodists
rresbyterians, Episcopalians and
'utherans and Christians would stand
eogether, we could make South Caro-
ma as dry as bone. If we do not

So far as the people Of county are
concerned, their legislative delega-
tion is the whole Legislature, for the
local delegation absolutely controls
any legislation affecting solely the
county. The local legislator decides
what the tax levy for county pdrpos-
es shall be and how it shall be spent.
one man, the state senator, has the
power all by himself to decide
whether or not law pertaining sole
~ to the county he represents shall
pass or be killed, even if majority
or all of the members of the House
favor that law. No United States
senator, congressman, governor or
any other state officer can do so much
that will directly benefit the county.
Combined, they cannot usually ac-
complish as much as the legislative
delegation for the particular county.
Because of their under-valuation
of the Importance of the office of
legislator, the people become careless
and Indifferent about filling it, with
the result that often incompetent,
narrow and inefficient men are sent
to the General Assembly. Some
times it happens that "teetotal"
ignoramus is elected, because the
people don't care. No other candi-
dates should be subjected to more
searching scrutiny and investigation
than those for the House and Senate
of the state legislature.

Patrons of the Rock and New

:He nirhoaa Sentinel reports. The
na.aur y'' ac decided by vote on
August :
For the sakn of the better educa-
tion of the children affected, these
school districts, as we'll as many
others throughout South Carolina,
should be consolidated.
School consolidation, which is the
maintenance Of one larger school in
place of two or more small schools,
<means better education, for the fol-
lowing reasons:
(D 1t permits better grading Of
pupils, or the substitution of graded
classes for ungraded classes in the
majority of cases
(2) 1t enables better teachers to

(3) Pupils can receive larger
share of the time and attention Of

(4) Better buildings and better
equipment can be provided without
undue expenditure for overhead
cost;

signed to special classes or subjects; !;
co. Better supervision is possible
Consolidation costs the people
ess for the proper kind of education,
because:
% For example, in some cases,
;hree teachers can care for one group
# seventy-five or one hundred pupils
n consolidated school better than
i've teachers could care for five
groups each;
(2) The care and upkeep of one
consolidated school building costs
less than the care and upkeep Of two
Or more one-room and two-room
buildings;
(3) Supervision costs less for one
consolidated school than for a single
one-room school,
(4) Money is saved through the
erection of school building of more
permanent from of construction than
the ordinary school structure.
School consolidation has saved the
people money and given their chill
lren better education in hundreds of
districts in many states.
In his latest report State Super
lntendent of Education John E.
Swearingen says with reference to
South Carolina schools:
"a few districts still persist in
maintaining too many schools. The
best practice in the most progress
sive districts favors one school for
whites"
If the patrons of the Rock and
New Town school districts vote for
consolidation, they will have the as
surance that by so doing they will
enable their children to get better
education and that means better
chance to make something of them
selves in this world. The Piedmont
hopes that they will favor consoli-
dation.

JAPAN FAyORS
AN AGREEMENT
With AMERICA
ON POLICIES
Ready to Consider Dis
armament as Soon as
Pacific Problems Are
Settled - Will Prob
ably Accept Invitation
to Proposed Confer
ence at Washington.

Toxic, July 11.-An agreement by
the United States, Great Britain and
Japan on Pacific problems as Il desir-
able precursor ur accompaniment ta
any renewal OF the Anglo-JapaHese al
lance is finding favor with japanese
puE.icists who seem To believe tha;
negotiations t. that end have beeu
started.
tThis dispatch was fled before the
announcement in Washington of Pres
idCnt Hardings informal invitation to
Great Britain, France, Italy and Ja-
pan to participate in Il conference on
limitation of ornaments in Washing
ton).
Although the newspapers are devot-
ing columns To the treaty no reference
has been made to the fact that no gen
eral arbitration treaty exists between
the United States and Japan. The
Japanese publicists apparently inter
pref the American opposition to any
British Japanese treaty as Il military
plan inspired by the absence of such
on agreement.
Chugai Shogyo Shimpo, the organ
of the business world, declares that.
because of the collapse of Russia and
! Germany, the Anglo-Japanese alliance
would only have significance if di-
reCted against the United States. Il
points out, however, that the Japa-
nese and British governments repeat
edly have insisted that the agreement
wCu!d in no sense be directed against
the United States.
IF renewal of the alliance is merely
for international etiquett,' the news
paper says, we cannot but think it
meaningless. We believe it is more
urgent to conclude tripartite agree
ment on Pacific questions.
The Hochi Shimbun calls attention
to the fact that the system,iin the
United States of changing party gov
errments and the traditional objec-
ton in the United States to- foreign
entangloments makes it difficult for
the United States could adhere to an
lance, but the newspaper believes
the United StSates could adhere to an
entente founded on Oriental restric-
ton. 1t urges Japan TO concentrate
its efforts toward securing such an
agreement declaring it believes there
is no need of an offensive and defen-
Sive alliance with Great Britain.
The Yomi Hri Shimbun thinks 1t
imperative for Japan to secure an un-
derstanding with the United States
concerning Japanese policies in the
Pacific. The newspaper is convincra
such an agreement should include an
accord concerning Notifications in the
Pacific.
The Jill Shimpo says Japan would
be ready to participate in confer
cnce should President Harding call
one.
