A resolution adopted by the

policy to curb imitation. rather
than artificial and unavoidable
system of price controls" cited the
.industrys current output.
The resolution said mill con.

900 bales annually which. If con.
Itinued, will be almsst two million
bales more than the total for tht
1949-50 cotton year.

20 Killed in Race Riot.
During the reconstruction period
there was a terrific race riot at
Ellenton. About 20 persons, most
ly Negroes. were killed before it
was over. The freed slaves had
possession of the town for several
days, and the white residents were
hiding in the woods until the Fed
eral troops came and restored Or
der. That unpleasantneSs seems
to have left no social scars in Ell
lenton. Race relations are typi-
cally Southern. marked by white
'paternalism, strict segregation and
much Negro loyalty.
AS might be expected, the Ash
leys who built the big house in
the village are quite a family. The
house was built in the tradition of
the Ashley Place, pillared plan
tation mansion out in the coun-
try. which was built before the
Civil War. Ashley Place is also

had supervisors to supervise super

In the '70s young Georgian
named Horace Michael Cassels ar
rived in Ellenton. All his belong
lings were in one small bag. He
had left home because his father
had remarked and he did not
lapprove Of it. He went to work for
THE sawmill. putting himself in

boring in competition with the

daughter and started a dynasty
that spearheaded the emergence

Became Close Friends.
Succeeding generations of Cas-
sells and Ashleys became close
friends. The Cassels lent the Ash
leys money on their entailed acres
which the Ashleys repaid when
the entailrnent came to an end
and they were able to sell the
land. The Cassels attended the
parties in the big Ashley houses
That's just the story of two FL.

Crate Co., the areas one sizable

dren to Clemson Agricultural Col.
lege, to the Citadel at Charleston
to Duke in North Carolina and
some of the girls went to Agnes
Scott in Atlanta.
The busiest man in Ellentor
these days is Ralph South, the
moving contractor. He is from
Denver. When he read the an
nounceenent about the H-bomt
plant and the evacuation of the
local population, he drove to South
Carolina and looked the situation
over. He reported that there
isn't a house in Ellenton he can't
move, provided he is given the
right Of way on the highways.
He is moving farmhouses and
outbuildings now in the areas the
Government has ordered cleared
first.

discussed in the hearings before
Senator Fulbright's subcommittee
it was common knowledge, and
the former Maritime Commission
was undoubtedly aware, that GER
tain tax advantages might accrue
to vessel purchasers chartering OF
selling their vessels to foreign SUBJ
Isidiaries or affiliated corporations
The amount of such tax savings
was. Of course. conjectural."
The Commerce Secretary ex-
planned that Congress itself in
1916 set the formula for pricing
surplus ships for sale. Under that
law the Maritime Commission
could not lawfully have taken
into account any possible tax adj
vantage which might arise to the
purchaser" I.

800 to 500, depending on the sea-
son. It makes crates for bananas
citrus fruits and meats, and bas-
ketS for most varieties of fruits
and vegetables grown east of the
Mississippi.
The executives Of the plant said
they do not know yet what they
are going to do. The raw material
for their products are the gum
trees that grow in the Savannah
River swamps. Trees along the
Savannah are the best in the
country for the purpose, they said.
The Government Is taking the
timber holdings, and it is difficult
to find large stands of such trees
where they can be trucked in to a
plant, especially since hydro-elec
trio dams are flooding so many
of the river basins.
There is a second town in the
area to be evacuated, Dunbarton
(pop. 1922. 1t is little more than
a railroad station and a number
of stores, most of them bearing
the name "Rountree' in large let
ters. The proprietors are all men,
bers of the same family. There
are also an elementary school, a
couple Of small churches and sew
feral attractive small houses.
Cemeteries Present Problem.
There are $50 cemeteries in the
area, and the one at Dunbarton
is one Of the best cared for. The
Rountrees and related families
have fenced in a little section in
the center Of the cemetery, and
lit is planted with lockwood bushes
land other decorative shrubs.
The moving of the cemeteries
lis going to be one of the major
headaches of the Acc in the work
of clearing the land. 1t has not
started yet. When the time comes,
IundertakerS will be asked to sub
NIT bids.
But a rumor started up soon
latter the announcement, and it
lis still going around. When
walked into the Office of G.. o.
(Gus) Robinson. the Acc direc-
tor of information at Augusta. he
was on the telephone answering
another of the repeated queries.
The question is always the same,
and it is:
Where do you get those 81
