Free Press Always

Since last weeks article on the
Loris school situation appeared
in The Tribune, the newspaper
has been praised, cussed, threat
ened, adored and a host or otner
things.
This newspaper wishes to state
it's policy. 1t is first, last and
always free to print the news
wherever it may occur, regard
less of whom it affects, and re-
gardless of whether the publicity
is good or bad. The newspaper
doesn't make the news. 1t prints
what the people make.
AS such, it is the desire OF the
Tribune to open it's columns IN
this school situation and on any
other issue to any and all per-
sons. We ask only that you sub
NIT YOUR statement and sign it.
Your name can be withheld upon
request.
The Tribune feels that those
persons who live in the area had
the inherited right to know what
was going on throughout the
town of Loris and how the school
was thus affected. Their chill
dren go to school just like those
persons who are in. the midst OF
the confused situation.
The Tribune in this controver.
sy has not purposely chosen sides.
The newspaper has presented
the news as it was found. To
get the actual dead-certain facts
out of this school situation is
near impossible.

Jared had they been as energetic
as the Deery partisans."
In another daily newspaper
article which appeared regarding
the situation, it was intimated
that the passing out of recon-
mended trustees on printed
slip to voters at the door had
definite bearing on the outcome
of the election.
Deery himself has kept reason.
ably complacent during the
school fuss and said last week
that his resignation had been
placed with the old school board
on March II. He also said that
he would be the superintendent
at Estill, S. c., next year.
Meantime in Loris, the rumors
have been flying that the new
school board had already met.
Some were yelling that all the
teachers in question, who had
their jobs back when the old
board resigned, were fired.
Others were saying that they had
all been given new contracts.
But the truth is, the new school
board hasn't had an opportunity
to meet at all to date. Lundy
Vaught, one of the new members
of the board, has been in the hos
pital for several days and the
group has beer unable to get
together.
Sam Hickman, one of the new
| ly elected trustees, said this week
that the new board was expected
to meet as soon as all the mem
bers were able to get together
He also said that as far as he
was concerned, and he believed
that he was expressing the
thought of other members of the
board, that each teacher involved
in the dispute would be consider
ed individually. And that they
would be considered impartially
and without prejudice.
Hickman also expressed a de-
sire to see the community settle
it's differences. Get together on
some common ground and work
for progress in the school. He
personally also favored the call
ing in of some of the opposition
in the recent situation to express
their views before the board.
He pointed out that this was only
one member of the boards opln-
| ion and whether any such action
would be taken would depend
upon the wishes of all the men,
bers of the board of trustees.
