sion that Mrs. FELTON, was given her
seat.
The principal delay was due to an
address of Senator Walsh (Dcmocrat)
of Montana in support of her claim to
the senate sea. This address, which
was not on the program of the lead
ers, went into the precedents involv-
ed in the proposed course and at first
gave the impression that the Montana
senator was opposing Mrs. Felton's
claims. But later Mr.. Walsh swung
into strong support other position,
declaring that her title was clear and
that granting it should not be consid-
cred favor or a chivalrous act.
But at no time did Mrs. FELTON, ex-
hibit nervousness, sitting with hands
folded in her lap and with eyes on the
Montana senator She arrived a half
hour before the senate convened and
took the seat OH the floor Of the last
Senator Watson, after giving her
wraps to a senate page and seeing
that they were hung in the Democrat
ic cloak room.
The address Of Senator Walsh was
broken by the joint session for the
presidents message and Mrs. FELTON,
attended, walking to the house cham
Der on the arm of Senator Harris and
occupying a seat between him and
Senator-elcct George near the center
aisle. She then returned to the SEN
ate, where Senator Walsh concluded
his address and she was sworn in.
After receiving the oath she returned
to her seat on the floor and watched
the routine proceedings with keen
eye until senate adjourned.
Before going to the capitol today
Mrs. clifton went to the White House
and paid her respects to President
Harding. She is expected to be in her
seat III the senate tomorrow, but it
is understood that Senator-elcct
George will present his claim to the
seat after Mrs. FELTON, has answered
one roll call and perhaps delivered q
brief address. Then it is understood
she will retire without objection in
favor of Mr.. George, whose Ae.ay in
presenting his election credentials
made possible the seating of the iirs!
woman senator.

Mdnaing EleUen Wins
Game From St. MatthetU

In the most exciting game Of foot.
ball ever seen here Manning doeGated
st. Matthew's Friday by the score
of to @. The two teams were
evenly matched and fought for three
periods without a score. Manning
carried the ball to the one-yard line in
the second quarter, but was unable
to put it over. During the second half
st. Matthew's, being unable to gain
through the line or around the ends,
opened up an aerial attack, but was
unable to gain, SO was forced to punt.
Manning scored the only touch down
when Mcleod intercepted pass and
ran , forty yards. The entire Manning
line played a great game, st. Mat
thew's at no time making any sub
stantial gains. Golphin, of st. Mat

good at returning punts. Land, Nc
Leod and Bowen gained the most
ground for Manning. Manning plays

RoUiUdl Services Closed
Here Sunday Night

The union revival services held last
week in the Manning Baptist Church
came to a close on Sunday night.
From the beginning of the revival the
Church was taxed to ufford seating
room for those who came. The con-
gregation at the morning services
was unusually large, many affirming
that they had never seen such crowds
at the day services Of revival in
Manning.
The three resident pastors, Messrs.
McCord, Fowler and Easlcy preached
in succession at the services. Miss
lisa bella Thomas and Mr.. Joe Davis
had charge of the music.
A number of the members of the
Business Mems Evangclistic Club
took active part and rendered great
assistance. 1t was greatly regretted
by all that both Mr.. Fowler and Mr..
McCord were taken sick before the
close of the meeting. They were
greatly missed on the last day.
After the sermon on Sunday night
number of those present gave ex-
preston to their opinion of the series
of services, and were unamious in
speaking of the great good that the
meeting had done. 1t is felt that the
community for q long time to come
will reap the benefit Of these unusual
services.

FIRST WOMAN SENATOR
OF u. S. TAKES HER SEAT
Mrs. w. H.. FELTON, of Georgia Takes OATH -Mau
Deliver Speech Before Retiring Todau-
Successful in Effort to Blaze the
Path for American Women

Washington, Nov. 21.-Mrs. w. H.
FELTON, of Georgia took the oath of
office today as the first woman United
States senator.
1t was true that her term probably
will be only for day, but the cere-
mony crowned with success the efforts
of the 81 year old woman had made
to "blave the path for American wo-
manhood" in the senate and it was
indicated that she would be content
to step aside tomorrow in favor, of
Walter r. George, who was elected
November z as her successor to fill
the uneXpired term of the late Sena-
tor Watson. 1t was to the vacancy
caused by this death Mrs. FELTON, was
appointed last September to serve un-
til the November elections.
The seating of Mrs. FELTON, attracted
crowd to the senate which rivalled
that which had greeted President
Harding a short time before in the
house, where he addressed congress in
joint session. And she was at once
showered with congratulations upon
the signal honor.
When she was directed to proceed
to the rostrum for the administering
Of the oath of office her face broke
into 4 smile. On the arms of Senator
Harris of Georgia and lifting her
gown daintily, she walked down the
center aisle and up to the vice presi-
dents desk, where Senator Cummns
of Iowa, president protein, was pre-
siding in the absence from theci ty of
Vice President Coolidge.
AS Senator Cummins motoned for
her to raise her right hand she ex-
hibited her only sign of unfamiliarity
with the proceedings, waving her hand
to Mr.. Cummins and smiling as if re-
ceiving similar salute Senator Har-
ris nudged her arm, however, and she
then raised it, gazing intently at SEN
ator Cummins as the oath was dcliv-
cred and giving her response in a low
voice.
The seating of Mrs. FELTON, had been
expected in view of the tactical agree
ment of the senate leaders to inter-
pose no objection in the face of pos
siblc technical precedents as' to her
status after the election on November
of her successor. But for a time
today it appeared as though such OBJ
lection might be offered and definite
assurance that the oath would be adj
ministered was not reached until a
delay of two hours. In fact, it was not
until after President Harding had de-
livered his address to the joint seS-

Parole Does Not Suspend
: Sentence, is Court RaZisaq

Columbia, Nov. 20.-In an opinion
handed down today, the State Su-
preme Court, in the case of Grover
Crooks, who was suing for habeas
corpus held that parole issued by
the Governor Of South Carolina to
convicts did not suspend their SEN
tences but that such sentence run
concurrently with the parole; or, in
effect, that the prisoner was still in
the custody Of the State but without
his prison bounds under executive
sanction. The court instructed Col.
A. X. Sanders superintendent Of the
State penitentiary, to turn Crooks
back to the sheriff of Oconec Coun-
ty, because the revocation of Crooks
parcle by Governor Harvey on Sep
tember 13, 1929, was not legal.
The opinion was written by AS
sociate Justice j. II. Marion and is
an exhaustive treatise on the par
doning power of the Governor. 1t
was concurred in by the other men,
bcrs Of the court with the exception
Of Chief Justice Eugene B. Gary, who
merely stated that he dissented, with
out giving his reasoning.
Sentences Continue to Run
Under the weight of the decision,
when convict Is paroled, his SEN
tence continues to run, and, re-
gardless Of the stipulations sur
rounding his freedom, when this
sentence has expired he is with
out the custody Of the State. Until
clarified by the court, the general
conception 0 parole was that
the sentence was suspended and the
prisoner could be re-possessed by
the State during the time Of his natur-
al life for violation Of any Of the

COTTON FUTURE LAW

Chicago, Nov. 21 (By the Associated

This afternoons session Of the

stipulations of the parole.
Since parole was grated into the
law in 1909 by statutory provision,
it has been favorite mode of clc-
mency with South Carolina Governors
for the reason that they supposed the
stipulations in the grant would have
to be lived up to, putting deterrent
in the path Of a return to crime other
wise the convict would have to COM
plete his interrupted sentence. How
ever, the Supreme Court through its
decision holds this to be false doc
trine.
May Ask Remedy
In some States in which the pa
role system is in effect there is a
statutory provision, providing for
merely suspended sentence when
a parole is granted, and the pris-
oner can be re-incarcerated at any
time for just cause. Although he
had nothing to say for publication
concerning the opinion, it is prob
able that Governor Harvey, when
he drafts his message to the Gem
eral Assembly, will ask that sta
tutory hedges be put around paroles
granted in the future. In the grant
ing Of a parole there is no return Of
citizenship, which is the case when a
pardon is given; and the majority Of
Governors seem averse to giving a
full pardon, except when ther, IS
shown to bo fragrant miscarriage Of
justice.
The opinion Of Justice Marion goes
into full history Of the Crooks case
and he cites copious authorities on
which the reasoning Of the court is
bottomed.
