THE TABOR CITY TRIBUNE
COUPLE DRIVES 1000
NILES TO GRAND STRAND

! CRESCENT BEACH-Mr. ano
Mrs. Bob Collins, of Winston
Salem, took a long, roundabout
way to reach the Grand Strand
but when they got here, they DE
cided it was the best vacation
Ispot they'd seen in a trip that
covered the entire southeastern
coast.
The Collins started out from
Winston-Salem on vacation trip
to Florida. From the southern
tip of Florida, they Travelled
northward along the coast look
ling for a suitable beach resort to
spend their holidays. Finding no
spot to their liking, they contlnu'
ed northward until they struck
Crescent Beach. Zone look at
your beautiful strand" said Mrs
Collins, land we knew we'd touno
the ideal spot"
The Collins spent their weeks
vacation at Mrs. Hazel Parker's
Sea Crest Guest-House at Cres'
cent Beach, having Travelled 1900
miles to reach the Grand Strand
only 1870 miles from their home
town.
Said Mr.. Collins, "In all our
travels, we have found nothing
to compare with the beauty of
South Cardinals smooth, wide
! Grand Strand, and the people
here really practice southern hos
pitality-they seem like home
folks"

About a dozen large red snap

OUR TOPPING GOVERNMENT
Bv Morton Clausen

also contracts to make it prosper, 9TH
erwise it would be absurd to deprive
industry of its liberty.
In meddling with the balance OF
trade through tariffs, executive edicts
and bureaucratic directives, it thereby
undertakes to guarantee more trade
and greater prosperity. If this results
in reduction and destruction of trade,
whose fault is it?
In giving protection instead of iber-
ty to industry for defense, it contracts
to make it profitable. If that becomes
burden to the taxpayer, who will get
the blame?
in enacting laws to govern morals,
ethics and behavior of the people, it
such laws make things worse, whose
fault will that be?
Today there are few grievances for
which the government does not try to
make itself responsible. With each new
responsibility there is another extern
sion of the domain of law and force,
and thus another potential for failure.
If government undertakes to control
and cannot control because of being
in opposition to some higher law and
order; if it undertakes to care for us
all from cradle to grave and cannot do
it; if it undertakes to subsidize every
body and everything and cannot do it.;
if the government undertakes to en-
tighten, develop, enlarge, strengthen,
spiritualize and to sanctify the soul of
the people, and cannot do it, what
then?
History records that every govern
ment that has undertaken to regulate,
control and govern beyond narrowly
limited scope has failed, and that each
such failure was attended BY -evolu-
ton.
The time is here for every good A
merican to go to the aid of his govern
ment. Unless we speedily and drastical-
ly trim it's power, scrape it clean down
to the narrow confines so wisely de-
signated by the trainers of the Consti-
tuition, it will destroy itself, and us
with it.

There are several good reason for
believing that the government OF this
nation may topple, causing untold
hardship to all Americans. 1t. is also
conceivable that such a catastrophy
NAV occur in not too distant future
unless something is done.
Our government may topple because
YOU and 1 have neglected our Ship OF
State. Directly and indirectly we are
sabotag ing that sleek, swift vessel de-
signed by the trainers of the Constitu-
ton to gracefully and successfully take
the lead among world governments in
the race for better world. We have al
lowed barnacles to accumulate on her
hull, and her timbers and planking to
rot. We have rugged her with ignorance
and manned her with incompetence.
What will happen to an institution
vested with so much authority that it
is responsible for good fortune and bad
fortune, for wealth and for destitu-
ton, for equality and for inequality,
for virtue and for vice? 1t destroys it
self. -~~~..~-,.,~r~~,
No government Institution, no mat
ter how brilliantly manned and staff
ed, can ever for long successfully dis
charge such obligations to its citizens.
No man-made Institution can ever play
God and be successful at it.
If, as individuals or as a group, we
are successful and suffer no serious set
backs, such a government may for the
time being be the object of our graft
tude. But if we are unfortunate, if we
suffer material reverses, and if our ma
tional economy should receive serious
setback, then such government must
bear the blame.
When government creates mono
poly of education, it must answer to
the hopes Of the parents whose children
1t educateS.
When government undertakes to
maintain and protect our health, it
must keep us we'll, be answerable for
every ailment we contract, and must
successfully treat those ailments.
When government undertakes to
regulate and govern industry, then it
