FORSYTH Man
SPEAKS HERE
F. F. HdYnes Tulks
At Local Kiwunis
Club Meeting

The Hon. F. F. Haynes of For
|syth addressed the members OF
the Hardin Kiwanis club at
their regular weekly meeting
held Wednesday noon in the
basement of the Methodist
church.
The club observed IT Am An
American Week" and Mr.,
Haynes address was devoted en-
tirely to Americanism. He re-
ferred to conditions existing at
the close of the first World
War, and the feeling of the
people at that time, that the
liberty of America was made
safe and of the beliefs of the
veterans who returned from that
war that the world had been
made safe for democratic prin-
oiples.
1.-The people of America,
France and England" he stated,
then, in their enjoyment of
liberty, forgot that in order
to promote a free system of
government, they should be
watchful, they forgot to watch
and in an unguarded period of
time the powers opposed to lib
erty, were allowed to gain
strength. AS a result, we are
now having the fiercest strug-
gle the world has ever known.
In order to preserve our
American freedom, it now be-
comes necessary for us to sac
rifice, ,yeyen to the state of
bankruptcy, our earthly goods
and worldly possessions. With
strong faith in God and with a
will to- do the preservation of
our religious liberty, our free
dom Of thought and our way
of Life may be held intact. We
hope to succeed, but before we
can do this, there must be great
sacrifice Of life.
fSeyytea clubs, such as KiWa-
MS, are all out-growth of the
first World War. and should be
doing and are now doing a
wonderful work as leaders of
communities in shaping the
faith of the people for the pre-
servation of our American in
stitutions."
He stated further that it is
not for some of us to do this
work. but that there is work
for each and every person whe-
ther at the front or at home
by reason of age or other phys
ical disqualification. He paid
tribute to the American Legion
which is doing its share of this
work, and made a plea for unity
of all true Americans regardless
of political or religious faith
in this great undertaking.
The following officers ana
representatives of the american
Legion were present as guests:
E. O.. Preston; w. S. Voiels and
the Rev. C. A. Bentley, of Crow
Agency; v. I. Morris; Dan w.
Maddox; Merle Martin and
George W. GuStafSon.
Kiwanian Lee Terpening was
awarded the war stamps for
the week. -,

Group Holds Meeting
Continued from Page l.

urges farmers to register their labor
requirements with his office. Labor
is also urged to register so that they
can be placed promptly where needed.
The Farm Security Administration
is now constructing a Migratory Labor
Camp near the fire tower on the West
over to Pocomoke road. The manager
of the camp will be Mr. John O'Mal-
ley. There will be an employment
office at the camp where farmers can
apply for harvest help.
1t was the opinion of the meeting
that the Compulsory Work Act of
1917 should be reenacted by procla-
nation of the Governor. 1t was also
the opinion of the meeting that there
should be an investigation made of
unemployment compensation which
is being paid in the county and if any
cases are found where compensation
is being received by unemployed
labor, which is not justified with the
urgent need for farm labor, that prop
er legal action be taken as was done
in Wicomico and also in Worcester,
where a case is now pending. In the
Wicomico County case a fine of $4,000
was made by the magistrate. States
Attorney Kirk Maddrix, Sheriff Fred
Phoebus, and his deputy, together
with the town officers of Princess
Anne and Crisfield, and Sgt. Paul j.
Randall, heading members of the
State Police, visited these communi-
ties and other sections of the county
to check on those who were loafing
to determine their draft status. Men
who were apparently loafing and who
were not in the towns for business
reasons, were asked to show their reg
istration cards, and if the cards
showed deferred classification for
dependents, they were asked why they
were not employed in order to support
these dependents.
The county Draft Bard is cooperat-
ing with the law enforcement officers
and have promised that cases of I'M
employed men who have received de-
ferred classification, either from the
fact that they have dependents, or are
engaged in essential work, that these
cases will be reviewed by the draft
board and the unemployed men will
be subject to Redistribution for
Class Ia and be subject to an early
call for military service.
Farmers of the county have made
every effort to increase their produc-
tiontion of food crops, like tomatoes,
the school officials have cooperated by
closing schools early so that the
school children can assist in the crop
harvest, and it is not expected that
the public will permit crops to be lost
through the failure of help to harvest
these crops if such labor is now in
the country and is not working and
