CHARLESTON MOST HISTORIC CITY

CHARLESTON, S. c., Dec. II.
On a broad peninsula near the
center of the sunny South Caro-
lima coast, where the great Cooper
and Ashley Rivers flow together,
lies the restful old city of. Charles
ton, an intriguing and delightful
winter resort.
Charleston claims to be "Ameri-
cas- most historic city," and is un-
questionably DiXie's most interest
ing resort.
Settled in 1870
In 1910, those who settled
Charleston planned not a frontier
post, but a great city. Stately
buildings, that were old when
America became nation, today
in their mellow beauty show how
well the founders of Charleston
built.
In July, 1774, at the meeting of
the Provincial Congress in Charles
ton, there was set up the first in
dependent government in America.
On nearby SullivanS Island at
what is now Fort Moultrie, the
great British forces under Sir
Peter Parker were defeated in
1776, for the colonists' first de-
ciSive victory of the revolution.
In Charleston harbor nearly a
hundred years later was fired the
shot that precipitated the Civil
War.
From Charleston have come,
through the centuries, many de-
velopments that have played i'm
portant parts in the growth of the
nation. From this seaport in 1884
the first shipment of cotton to
Europe was made; here in 1880
the Best Friend, first steam
locomotive train ever to operate
in America regularly with pas
sengers and freight, made it's
maiden trip; in 1875 the first fire

The Constitution of the United
States is in danger.
This is not sell out. This is a
complaint against the caliber of
the self appointed defenders of the
Constitution. They've been here
in droves lately and a most ment-
ally handicapped lot they are.
Senator Blank of Alabama has
been pulling some Of them from
his dragnet of lobbyists and ex-
posing them to the light of day.
So far they have all been proved
recipients of DUPONT largess and a
mighty queer lot.
There was the farmer who grew
vegetables on a one and one-half
acre farm in Swanky Long Island
in New York. He wanted to know
"what he was charged with" be-
fore he would answer any ques-
tions and when the committee sat
isfied him on that score he refused
to answer questions because it
would get people in trouble" Ner-
vous, fidgety, he bounced in his
chair, sputtered his words, and ap-
peared as if he were incapable Of
defending a mouse from the attack
of mOusetrap.
Then there was the Ku Klux
Khan gentleman who betrayed his
southern chivalrv and gentlemanly
upbringing by refusing to sit in
the presence Of Senator. He also
betrayed his chivalry and upbring-
ing, not so gentlemanly, by going
through an act depicting the tor
lures of hell which afflicted him
when he learned that Mrs. Roose-
welt, wife of his president, had ac-
tually gone to a Negro meeting
escorted by two Negro men. So
painful were his agonies that he
the picture on thousands
of leaflets and had them distribut-
ed all over the south.
This defender teetered back and
forth upon his heels, swayed from
side to side, thumped his chest
with his clenched fists, and gen
orally behaved in a fashion not
witnessed in the Capitol,
even when Congress is in session.
Then there was the defender
who fussily ran his fingers thru
his papers, threw out all kilograms
cause they don't mean anything"
from spirit of utmost
defiance to extreme cooperation,
attempted to wisecrack for the
benefit of newspapermen who
fooled him by laughing at, instead
of with, him.
Altogether a picture gallery of
the defenders of the Constitu-
tion," if unidentified, would be
taken by most everyone as a gal
lery of birdfood statesmen, the
graduating class of the 1868 ST.
