Sanitation Department proposal eyed for Anderson risks retirees
A syndicated editorial warns that Rock administration and Anderson City Council plan a sanitation department that could force retirees and disabled on fixed incomes to sell homes. It argues the measure creates a new taxing unit, expands bond powers, and shifts control of sewer, storm, and trash services away from private industry, with public costly consequences.

Imagined Kennedy McGovern presidency shocks readers
A 1922 syndicated column mocks a Warren Rogers piece proposing a second Kennedy presidency in 1972 against Nixon. It envisions McGovern as the Kennedy stand in, with wild claims about Paris peace, Hanoi control, and a cabinet led by Ramsey Clark, warning readers of dystopian defeatist rhetoric. The piece satirizes speculative politics and fears of a Kennedy McGovern alliance shaping U.S. policy.

Paul Harvey discusses states considering legalizing gambling to curb crime but notes failures of regulation elsewhere. He cites Britain and Nevada as examples where legalization did not stop illicit activity, and urges government control or nationalization to reduce criminal gains.
