PRIMARY POLITICKING DIGS 10 G’s DEEP IN DUR HAM — Y^s, we taxpayers ahvflys pay. We had to spend 10 0’» for the neeeshary primary for the I’, y. Henatorieal eandidates w^ro permittel by law to .spend ■$12,0(K) per, and now with a run-off demanded they are permitted to spend $(>,000 each but what will we have to pay beside thru the nose*? . . . Both sides are priming their guns for blastiu, and we hope it smells more like gunpowder than manure this time ... To give orchids where they belong, Smith's 0. K. says one lady in the street, “But, Willie’s hokum is guilt by association, and if you want him you can have him, ’cause he's too tall for me” . . . Our prediction: Jimmy Byrnes will be the next governor of South Carolina. JUDGE, JURY, AND FIRING SQUAD — We divide some of the crchids from this department with the Recorder’s Court for slapping the hell out of trumped-up charge and its author, about June 1st. It was evident by his own testimony, that S. V. Olive, sawmill operator got mad with 25-year-old Jimmy Tanner for quitting his job, and swore out a warrant charging drunken driv ing fully a month before, phooey'. The gall! This on top of be ing indirectly responsible for the death of seven of his colored workers a few j'cars ago when they were thrown in the path of a large transport truck on tlie Oxford Highway because he failed to keep the brakes on his pick-up truck in good repair . . . He’s the one who should be thrown in the calaboose or worse. SHOES ARE LIKE MEN, HOW ARE YOU — Shoes have have souls, some men do, some men do — Shoes have tongues, some men do, and. the women, brother — Shoes have ties, married men do, and we bachelors too, if we only realized it . . . Some shoes are black and some are white, and some are high and some are high and some are low', and men ? Some are n*ally low down, so much so there is nothing left but the heel ... A runneil down shoe can be repaired, the difference between the shoe and the man . . Some shoes accomipauy pretty women a^ used by them . . . Some shoes are used by' homely women, fat women, skinny w(;men, short women, but brother, like men they are used . . . Listen men, like men, the life of a shoe determines the shoe’s life, and I hope you’re well, period. HOW TO CONQUER STUPIDITY — “Stupidity?” That’s the stuff you get from ain overdose of foolisliness, or more properly put, an extreme dose of dullness of understanding. Well, its this way, our dear Congressmen used up as much of our tax money tb make the headlines in Commy scares and have run them unjler- ground making them more dangerous than ever . . . On top of that the amateurs haA’e, under the guise of seeking information for legislation, (which is their conatiutional right but should be done with discretion) taken the FBI’s job and given ammunition for irreparable damage thru Moscow . . . Congress is now cam paigning to run sex perversion underground and may lead to the White House again for documents that can’t be funished by Yasliington police nor Security . . . The claim is that they are poor risk, and may' be blackmailed for top secret documents; un less they go to Bop-City where Diz Gillespie and Eddie Ilayw’ard are holding forth at 49th and Broadway for 98c.
