NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
NEW PEACH ORCHARDS

County Agent Stallworth estimates that one-haii
million peach seedlings will be planted this season
in Spartanburg county Before planting begins or
ebardiss are urged to terrace their lands to pre-
vent soil erosion during the life of the orchards
which is estimated at from 20 to 80 years.
Mr. Stallworth stresses the fact that terraces
cannot be constructed after the planting OF seed
lings without destroying many of the trees. Ar
engagements have been made with the soil conser-
walton service to survey lands for terraces without
charge and the cost per acre of throwing the ter
races will be small compared with the conservation
of soil. .. .....
The planting of one-haf million seedlings IN the
peach orchards of the county is no small undertake
inc. 1t is estimated that last season between Zoo-
600 and 100000 trees were bearing in county or
cbards. The planting this year will much more than
double that number.
If the seedlings to be set this year were planted
% feet apart in one row it would reach from
South Carolina to California across the states OF
Georgia Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma
part of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The Or
cbardists have task ahead and one that should
encourage them to terrace their lands and adopt
the most modern and approved methods OF caring
Cor their trees.-Spartanbur Herald.

sNEAkING INTO SOCIALISM

Socialism Is ALI right, we suppose; and if ever IL
becomes the way of economic life in this country
we will do our best to make the proper ADJUST
nents But this Sneaking into socialism without
clearly defined policy for guide, without any
clarion mandate from the people, is process t"a'
is hard to reconcile with desiraollty OF 1air play!
This federal grant of $2,595000 to High Point
for a power plant is an illustration OF sheakihs
into socialism Let it be submitted that II the 0ty
of High Point would like to produce Its own power
putting up its own money and charging rates SUI
fcient to pay itself back over period OF years,
il would be the business solely OF High foine anu
its taxpayers and consumers. But when the led
oval government hands out the money with no
strings attached, neither expecting nor asking re-
navment it is equivalent to coercion against pri-
vate power companies.
II is all the less admirable when one stops 10
consider that PWA is an agency created primarily
TO relieve unemployment. Obviously, its large grant
70 High Point is made neither primarily nor Sec
oudarily to relieve unemployment but to chastise
the Duke Power company Having no regulatory
authority over interstate power rates, the 1ederai
government, acting through the person of PWA Ad-
ministrator Ickes, sets out to use funds Votea lo
an emergency to accomplish indirectly what 1t cam
not do in fortnight fashion. ....-. 81.
1t is not our mission in life to protect private
power companies. They have shown in the past an
ability to take care of themselves perhaps too we'll
They still aren't suffering But if public utilities
are to be taken over by governments, let the policy

TIME FOR ACTION

It's time We took taxation out of politics.
A national election is just over 1t will be four
more years before we stage the great quadrennlal
show again. But in the meantime, no matter VINO
sits in the White House, matter who are men,
bers of the House and Senate, taxes are going TO
hit US all. .., zoe. ..
Republicans pay taxes. Democrats pay taxes.
So do Socialists and Communists. And no pohticai
party has clear record tax legislation. spokeS-
men for all parties have long promised tax redue.
tion-and then, once they took office, proceeded
to raise taxes. Members of all parties nave done
their part to fasten leech-like bureaucracy upon
usLand you can't have bureaucratic government
and efficient, economical government at the same
time. -
During the campaign, We heard more promises
of tax reduction from all political quarters. Now
the time for conversation is past, and the time for
action has arrived. Promises demand fulfllment-
pledges cry out to be redeemed Unless are to
be utterly crushed under tax burden that is al
ready sappng more than 20 per cent of the ma
tional income, the American people must demand
that craftsmanship take the place of politics, and
that sincere ecort to really reduce the cost of
government be made.-Forest City Courier. CO.

REPUBLIC VERSUS
DEMOCRACY

+ The constitution of the United
States created this nation a re-
publc-not a democracy. There
is a difference between Il republic
and democracy. In one respect
the two forms Of government are
identical: In both the supreme
power is retained by the people.
But in a democracy the people
may either exercise their power
directly by determining their gov
Crnmcntal questions themselves,
or they may exercise. their power
indirectly through their chosen
representatives. However,, in q
republic the people do not eXer-
else their power directly; instead,
they delegate it to their period
ically elected representatives, who
act for them.
The United States is now OPP
Grated, not as a republic as pro-
vided for in the constitution, but
as u democracy; for in some in
stances the people exercise their
power directly - as whe nthey
voted to adopt and later to repeal
national prohibition.

the first place and by the time
Congress got through chewing on
il, close presidential advisers be-
lieve, it probably would be a hor-
rible mess. ....
Making one fight at time pre-
sumably would allow more care
full planning and give Roosevelt a
better chance of getting what he
wanted.
Second, the president is con-
cerned with the desirability OF
improving administration from
the personnel standpoint. he may
seek in some cases to build big
new combinations of federal func-
tons around certain top-notch adj
ministratorS of special gifts rather
than to create posts of great i'm
portance and then start whistling
for men of sufficient caliber to
operate them.
He can work better along this
line through the step-by-step
method.
INSIDERS take it for granted
that there will be consolidation
of social welfare agencieS-includ-
ing WPA, the Social Security
Board, CCC, and possibly the De-
partment of Labor-and that this
will mean creation of a new cabi-
net post. . -
Outstanding possibilities for the
lob are Harry Hopkins OF WPA
and John H. Fahey of Hole. Sec
retary Of Labor Frances Perkins
might be considered a possibility,
but certainly is not a likelihood.
There will be important reor-
carnations Of government financ-
ing and housing agencies, but de-
tails and probabilities as to adj
ministratorS are now matters Of
sheer speculation,
The president hasn't said any
thing to anyone concerning Spe-
cific cabinet or other major per-
sonnet changes. Most of the ru-
mors as to such changes are in
spired by those who want GER
tain things TO happen.

RESULTS OF REPEAL

Has repeal of the 18th Amendment accomplished
what the advocates of repeal promised? We let the
Chicago Daily News answer: ,
Repeal urged by it's sanguine supporters as
the remedy for all the ills of the dry regime The
saloon was to be taken out of politics. bootegging
was to be ended; drinking to decrease; temper
ance was to be promoted. Furthermore, unemploy-;
ment to be mtigated greatly; new.revenue was
to roll into state and federal treasures in vast
sums, and the nation was to be saved many mil
lions in the cost Of enforcement None of the prom
ises has been fulfilled The saloon is back, liquor
is in politics bootegging is worse the revenue re-
turns to the state treasury far below the hope
full estimates of 1885, and the cost Of fighting the
illicit traffic is still burdensome."
