REDISCVERING WEST Va.

address delivered by Bruce
Crawford Directo of w. Va. Pub
lefty Commission, before the
Charleston Civitan Club, at the
Ruffner hotel, Friday noon, July
II, 1941.)
MIR. President and Members of
the Civitan Club:
In recent weeks two ignorant
jibes were flung at the State of
West Virginia, one by a Southern
editor and the other by a nor
them cartoonist.
The editor, a Virginian, moan
ed that rude mOuntaineers had
routed Democrats Of the "oid
southern type" from the capitol
on the Kanawha and< that the
SLost Cause 1swage' lost all over
again. He, was still sad because
: Senator Nicely had been. elected
Governor on a platform to re-
store democracy to the Demo
cratic party and government to
the governed, in West Virginia
The cartoonist represented us
by a stock, hillbilly character
with bushy beard and rifle ir
hand, cunning for someone
around the mountain.
Both the editor and the car
toopist have their heads in the
sands of the past.
West Virginian are mountain
eers by geograpy and tradition,
and are proud of it. Originally
they were induced by willy Vir-
ginians to come into these
mountains and form a buffer
back-country against indians,
French, and British. Here they
grew sturdy self-reliant and in
depent. They fought the first
and last battles of the Ameri-
can Revolution, as we'll as the
first land engagement of the
war to preserve the Union. They
were shooting for liberty while
Patrick Henry as still shouting
for it among appeasers of King
George. A continental command
er it is. told refused to enlist
more volunteers from the colon
les, saying he had plenty of
West Virginians. General Wash
linton too, thought these noun
taineers were tops, for in a dark
our of the Revolution he said:
Leave J me but a banner to
place upon the mountains of
West Augsta, and I will gather
around me the men who will
lift our bleeding country from
the dust and set her free"

emergency as exists today is at
least short-sighted. Whatever
merits of any controversy be-
tween so-called monopolies and
the Administration, it is the
sense of this Committee that a
Squabble at this time on the

to have forgotten that without
national security, social reform

SO the country has been given
high otfiial authority to back up
the many and varied criticisms
of the handling of defense that
have been made by economists,
business men and others who
have no official connection with
the government. The report cites
a long list of cases which prove.

the greatest good to the greatest
