The hot sua makes' men mad in the
daytime and the romantic moon makes
them foolish at night. .
When the average American shouts
for unity, he means that other people
should fall in une with has views.
Nearly every human' being likes to
think about the day when he will have
plenty of money and lie able to help
all worthy causes. ;
Human nature, through the ages,
has responded very slowly to what re.
formers call the uplift and little prog
ress is made by applying the pressure
too fast
A Valuable Possession
The people of Orangeburg have dif
ferent religious beliefs'" and worship
according to their conscience without
interference from the government and
its officials.
Freedom of religious worship is one
of the rights guaranteed by our form
of government Those who enjoy the
blessinz that it afferds should be
scrupulous in respecting the beliefs of
those with whom they do not agree.
There is no other way to uphold and
maintain religious freedom.
Religion in the United States, how
ever, suffers no threat of dictatorship.
Its worst enemy, so far as we can see,
is the failure of individuals to put into
(practice the principles of the religion
that they profess. It is idle to prate
about religious convictions that are
not expressed in personality as it
mingles with human beings in daily
activities.
Frankly, the editor of this news
paper never worries about the religion
that other eople prefer, We trust
ithat'no one worries about our .beliefs,
The .common task that confronts all
men.,and women, of every religious
persuasion in life so as to Serve other
people.
Instead of , disputing about non
essentials, we might follow the ex
ample of the great teacher who went
about doing good. Life presents many
pitfalls into which human beings
plunsre and it is up to all of us to
avoid them as best we can. When
unfortunately some brother or sister
stumbles, there is an opportunity for
all of us to be helpful if we are so
minded..- '
The good Samaritan, in this year
1951, will find much to do.
Inflation Can
Hurt Everybody
The people of the United States are
beginning to wonder whether the ex
penditures necessitated by the 'defense
program will result in inflationary
prices and thus carry us, to another
pinnacle from which we will inevi
tably descend into another depression.
' It . may be said at the beginning
that the first requisite for another de
pression is a period of inflation. (Con
sequently, responsible economic ex
perts, in and out of the government,
are agreed that steps should be taken
to inrevent advancing prices which
will culminate in a wild orgy of buy
ing. -'.;f;'
With the increased tempo of de
fense, spending, the people of the
United States will have more money
to spend. It is also certain that, as
industrial plants turn from normal
production into the production of de
fense materials the shortage of goods
may ,become pronounced. : l
Given more money and fewer goods,
it is certain that prices will go up
a prospective buyers bid against each
other for decreasing supplies. This
will be the ease in any free economy.
Consequently, the Government is al
most compelled to take steps to limit
the buying power of the public.
As we understand it, and we admit
that we do not know too much about
it. this can be done in several ways.
Ona is to set a price upon goods and
commodities. Another is to provide
heavy5 taxation in order to drain off
excess purchasing power. - This end
can also be accomplished if the peo
ple of the country invest in Govern
ment sbonds for defense financing.
We hope the people of the United
States will be smart enough to en
courage the Government to take what-
