WHAT NEXT?

Collaborating with the Army Sur

Electric & Manufacturing Co., has de-
veloped "Bug Bomb" which is harm
less to humans but is making a dead

insects that have always been a
scourge of troops in warm climates.
Seven million such bombs have already
been produced-metal containers the
size of tin can which expel a mist
of pyrethrum and seasame oil when
the cap is unscrewed. The refrigerant
Freon provides the pressure. A single
bomb contains enough insecticide to

STATES RIGHTS, AND
THEN SOME

You have heard quite a bit about
labor racketeering since Pearl Harbor
and you have even read about Big
Business playing the same game, al.
though the headlines on the latter
were much smaller.
You have also been reading about
states rights and compelling the fed
eral government to restore auton-
omy of the sovereign states of this
great nation-releasing them from the
obligations imposed upon them by our
so-called federal bureaucrats.
And you have read about the Ma
tional Manufacturers Association IS
efforts to repeal the laws beneficial to
working people and Montgomery
Wards defiance of government agen-
cies.
And only two weeks ago you read
about southern state which imposes
a fee of $4,000 on labor organizers
who merely endeavor to advance the
cause of its working men and women,
few of whom are allowed to partici-
pate in the government of their state.
And now comes the governor of the
sovereign state of South Carolina,
who instructs local officials to arrest
anyone recruiting labor for jobs out
side his sacred state. Says violators
of one of his laws are subject to fine
of $4,000.
Shades of Fort Sumter and who
started the Civil War?
Does this great and sovereign state
Of South Carolina, sub, guarantee to
the working people Of its sacred bor-
ders employment at wages which will
keep them existing in decency? Does
this great and noble governor, who is
eager to supply plentiful labor for the
millowners who elect him, guarantee
that in the event of a slump these
same worker-citizens will be supplied
with the wherewithall to continue to
exist when he and his milloWner sup
porters have no work for them? Does
this governor, elected by minority
of the people Of his great and sove-
reign poll-tax state undertake to de-
cree that his powers are greater than
that of the federal government?
Perhaps, out of all this, we need
another Emancipation Proclamation.
Or perhaps this guy is just getting
too big for his britches.
If he thinks that by this noble proc
lamation he is freezing working peo-
pie in their low-paid jobs in his back
ward state he is at the same time
freezing himself in his job, he should
read the papers about what happened
to that great patriot from Texas
Martin Dies.

AN OPEN LETTER
February 25, 1914

FeDruary 70, 1894
Mr.. James M. Skeen.
Superintendent of Schools,
Clintwood, Va.
Dear James:
1 have your letter of recent
date in which you raised some
question as to my vote in regard
to salaries for teachers. AS much
as you are displeased with my
record, 1 have supported general
fund to each teacher and will
distribute ABC funds so as to
make it possible for localities to
raise teachers salaries $4,000 a
year. Only a few years ago the
goal of State aid to teachers was
only $4,000. It seems we have
made some progress within few
years.
I hope the teachers will get
the money appropriated to them
and that none of it will be di-
verted to salaries of Superinten-
dents and Supervisors. In addi-
ton to helping raise teachers
salaries, I voted to allow the 10
calities an increase of 100000
for bus transportation.
In view of these facts, it is
safe to say that no Legislature
ever did more for education than
we have.
I understand that any person
in public place has to undergo
criticism. I take the criticism of
my constituents in all good ma
ture.
Very sincerely,
A. r. SINGLETON.
