President Wilson has not acted
la baste?that mush cam; bo nd

engaged his attention the day he
was inaugurated* and dally since
that occasion It has been a con
stant bout ce of worry and dang,

outsiie has been the annoyance
from jingoes and ethers having

course events may take, may
South Carolina perform every
duty devolving cpon her. Not
better th?n has sera the caso In
the past when her sonn wore call,

did It. That will be sufficient,

Not more than ono hour bet?re
nows .readied Anderson last night
that the militia ?f all tho elates bad
been called by the President for
Moxlcah border' duty, Copt. B. B.
Gossett eat down to his typewriter
asd addressed a communication to
Tho Intelligencer In which he . ad
vocates i\ plan by which men.
who are members of the Na
tional Guard might bo encouraged in
reporting for duty in the event' they
aro called out for service in Mexico.
In brief, Mr.; Gossett's suggestion is
that individuate or corporations who
are employers of members of the Na
tional Guard make some provision for
the care of tho families of married
members of tho militia while they
are away from home. Mr. Gossett
suggests thai these employers of milt
ttamen supplement the salary which
these militiamen receive from the
government, thereby enabling their
families to get along in tho absence
of tho head of the house without suf
fering any hardships.
Mr. Gossett's" communication j is
most timely in view, of tho fact that
tho local mill tin have boon ordered, to
the border along with tho other mili
tiamen of the United States. >v Mr
GoasoU's communication . is as fol
lows: . '
June 18. 1916.
Editor Intelligencer:
A cull for the South Carolina Na
ttonal Guard for service In Mexico
appears .to be imminent: It is the
duty of every offl?or and enlisted
roan -to resppnd promptly and. chcer
fr'ly to such a,call. I do not doubt
but that they will do so. I certainly
will not hesitate. But the fact that
it wtll be a great hardship for some
to no udder * existing conditions can-1
hot "u>. denied. This la more or. less
true with everyone, hut I have par
ticular reference to the enlisted per
sonnel. Many of these men have
families dependent upon them fer
support. Others, white having no
families, will be loath to give up their
positions w*.2hout assurance from
their employers that they will bp
provided for upon their return, The
duty of every ^employer. under sujcb
circumstances, is plain. They should
not hesitato'; : ^.Cu tho other . band
they should encourage their men toj
go. Indeed: they should do moro
<oan thW'where necessary. Tho,v
Should a//V??o, under the proper cir
cumstances, to supplement their em
ployees government pay while In ac
tive service. The pay of a private
in the United States army is S15.00
per month, plus board add clothes
This cortainty is hot sufflclent renuai
nration to provide for a soldier <him
tslf as well as his. family .at home;
It every employer, in a worthy casej
would agree to add |15.00 per month
to- the regular pay of his men Up to
'a reasonable number of employees,
i$e , problem . would be solved?
maa could then leave bite family real,
iilng that whtjst they, could! hot live
In* luxury during his absence they
would at least itbt erutter. In the
state of,.South Carol'ua there aro
some 50,000 people employed in the
cotton mills. If every cotton mtH
manager\wpuld--a^av.jtarpl?rahe:"thia'
policy with a reasonable number of
his employees, say U per cent et *he
totbl, U would work no hardship up
on the mills and at the same tiine
would insure the ctate of South Cari

this* plan., bp, adopted not only by
the cotton' mtllo of the state, but by
every business man of whatever na
ture employing young men. . J.f they;
have no employees In the National
Guard at thiB time, they should 'en
courage a reasonable number to en
list. Even if we are not ordered to
Mexico, we should assist the govern
ment to .this extent in its prepared
ueB? program. Unless the business |
men of our state manifest some inter*
est and lend their active support to]
the present plan, preparedness will
fail so far as South Carolina Is con- i
corned.
