ritoRy, whose duty win be to act a.
the representative OF the Bureau in
his particular territory. It is pro-
posed that the Legion call meetings
of representatives o. the several vet
Grams organizations, and that some
person, not necessarily a Legion rep
resentative, be selected to act in the
capacity as above suggested. 1t is
not the intention of the Bureau to
make the Legion the sole agency for
this movement in the field, but be-
cause of it's wide organization it has
been asked to sponsor the plan, and
to help the placing OF the same in
operation.
The person appointed will assume
the responsibility of. acting for the
Bureau in his territory, and will be
expected to supervise the preparation
of the proper forms required by the
Veterans Bureau in the matter of
filing claims for compensation, re-
endorsements or insurance, and the
forwarding of these forms to the sub
district offices of the Bureau. 1t is
also expected that this officer shall
interest himself in obtaining employ
ment opportunities for men who have
been trained under the direction Of
the Bureau.
Experience has shown that a large
number of former service men are no
acquainted with what the government
is offering them in the way of com
%pensation or vocational training, an
it is for this reason that the Veter
ans Bureau is sending representa-
2 tives into the field to educate an
: make contact with as many of thes
: men as possible.
!, An excerpt from a letter recent
2 received by one of the sub-district o
fices is Illustrative of this fact. tt
e article referred 70 dealt with the elias
n Of claims that were being filed wit
q the Bureau at TINS time, stressing Il
e fact that a very large number of me

handicaps because Of their service

standpoint. 1t is known to the public
that l was put in the street. My
competitors had everything their way
except the farmers and the tobacco.
1T was predicted open and above board
that would not stay in business over
ten days or two weeks at the outside.
| am happy in telling the public that
this like many other things they have
said has fallen by the way side.
l sold around one million pounds,
do not think that our friends sold
but about half this amount with all
the machinery Of the old market.
1t is known fact that I took an
open stand early in the year that the
auction system was the best and sur
est method for handling the farmers
tobacco. | haven't changed one iota
from this opinion. think I have
been thoroughly vindicated in all that
! said and written pertaining to this
important question, which has meant
so much to the farmers of this Coun-
ty. I have no apologies to make to
any one for anything / have said or
have done. What l have done here
has met with the hearty approval of
the tobacco growers Of this County.
The old growers Of the Salem section
came to my rescue with their tobacco
and support, as well as the growers
nearer Manning, | thank all of you
for working with me to one common
end. | also thank the people of the
town Of Manning for the part thcy
played in re-cstablishing the Manning
market The business men of this
town all signed petition when it be-
came apparent that we would not have
an Independent market here this time,
the town helped to secure sight for
the independent growers, and let me
say right here that I do not want any
one to think that Manning did not
20 her part, or that she did not want
the market.
Our men are sensible good business
men, and are willing to accord to
every citizen the right to sell the pro-
duet of his toll in any way he thinks
will be to his best interest. Manning
isn't selfish narrow dictorial town;
her citizens are broad minded. Men
like Mr.. Il. G.. Wells and our Mayor,
Mr.. A. G. Bradham and Mr.. Jos. S.
Dickson took the lead in bringing the
new market into existence.
| want to put myself on record as
being highly in favor & haviIr

pendent tobacco in 1923. | hope that
we will be able to get q large house.
as we will easily sell from two to
three million pounds if we do. I find
that the feeling around the Salem peo-
pie for this market is better than it
h"s been for years, due largely to our
good roads which can not be beat in
the State. ! hope our business men
will look well towards the future,
and let's get this important section of
Clarendon County to keep coming to
Manning. Let the slogan be "a
Town for Every Citizen in Clarendon

to say that what we need most in this
County is to visit the Salem section,

Statistical Work

One of the important develop

the new funds is the employment Of
van additional woman clerk in the
Bureau of Vital Statistics in Columbia,
TO furnish the Bureau of Child Hy-

Editor Manning Times,
Gentlemen:
Please allow me space in your paper
to mention briefly something's about
the Manning Tobacco Market. Let
me say in the outset that l wish 1
had time to write real letter, for
have much in mind pertaining to the
market that l would like to get out
Of my system before the public. But
| must hurry and have little "say"
and get through.
| want to thank the tobacco grow
ers for the way they patronized me
this year in my tobacco automobile
shop. | feel very much gratified over
the fact that l consider that Manning
had the most successful season in her
history considering the poor facilities
we had to handle tobacco in. feel
highly gratifcd over the fact that the
farmers of this County stood by the
market and gave me their hearty sup
port, for which they are thoroughly
compensated. Manning really had
new birth, from tobacco market

ty, but the majority needs to use bet
ter methods in cultivation. l do not
know anything that will pay our to-
bacco farmers as much as better
methods Of cultivation and handling.
This amounts to seventy-fve per cent
in the production of tobacco. Four
acres well cultivated and handled will
give larger returns than ten poorly
handled and think of the difference in
expense; we must use better methods.
Manning''s low average last year was
due to this. The better class of to-
bacco growers will bear me out in
saying that my erage this year was
as high as any m ;.rket in South Caro-
lima, probably higher and at the same
time the low grades grown contigu-
Gus to Manning will cut my average
