Powell called a news conference to praise legislative action giving the Republicans until June 27, the primary date, to name candidates.

The legislation was enacted in the face of a Republican suit challenging a law requiring the Republicans to select candidates by June 3, the filing deadline for Democratic candidates. Powell Mid if the early deadline had remained in it would have hurt blacks and young people seeking office aa well as any Republican candidates. Powell also Mid the GOP is filing a notice of appeal on the latest State Senate reapportionment plan approved May 23 by, a three-judge federal district court. He added, however, that the party will not try to block this year's Senate elections. "We had first thought of that," PoweU Mid, "but we are not going to try to block the elections.

His herd is mostly Angus with a few White Face, and he's doing some crossbreeding to "see if I can get a bigger animal with faster gain." There are around S75 acres in lush green pastures. It's fescue and bermuda. To stretch out the spring grazing and help keep the pastures producing year around, he drilled in rye grasa in 15-inch rows over the fescue and bermuda, and Mys it's doing a good Job.

This is a common condition among working men but recent developments have made it controllable. It is vital that everyone understand these causes especially men because they have four times as many heart diseases. Knowing your family history will make you more aware of your own chances; cigarette smoking and obesity are things that the individual can control; and high blood pressure and metabolic disorders can be easily' detected and treated by your doctor. Dr. Mobley Mid he couldn't guarantee that avoiding these causes would lengthen any one person's life, but it does give you a better bet on a healthy life.

Index-Journal Reporter "The human heart is nothing but a pump, but its the best pump ever invented," Mid Dr. E. Mims Mobley at yesterday's meeting of the Greenwood Kiwanis Club. According to Dr. Mobley the heart pumps about 52,600 gallons of blood a year, but the most common cause of heart failure is lack of blood in its own tissue.

Dr. Mobley focused his talk on the five proven causes of heart and blood vessel disease which together account for 53 per cent of all deaths in the United States. These are family history, cigarette smoking, obesity, metabolic disorders and hypertension. "A family history of heart disease is something that can't be altered but it is ah important warning that should make us even more conscience of controlling the other causes," uid the doctor. Smoking is a very rirong factor in circulatory disease because nicotine in the blood causes the blood vessels to contract.

When this happens the heart, which relies on the steady flow of blood through two coronary arteries, can virtually be starved to death, he Mid. Cigarette smoking is far more dangerous than pipes or cigars because the smoke is inhaled, but all forms of smoking as well as air pollution can have the same effect. Being overweight tends to overwork the heart and cause serious problems. One danger of obesity isHrying to loose weight by exercising, he added. -i This further over-works an already tired heart and has caused millions of premature deaths.

Dr. Mobley Mys the correct way to do it is to diet the unwanted weight away and then exercise to keep it away. Metabolic disorders that can lead to heart disease include! high cholesterol from animal fat, tri-gliserides from too many sweets, and diabetes. Dr. Mobley -V 4 He uid the ruling will require the party to return about 75 per cent of the filing fees, and seek the money, "elsewhere." "No, I don't know how we'll raise it," he replied to a question.

"It will mean drastically reducing are state party headquarters operation, and cutting out all support for our candidates in the general election," Fowler predicted. The only other fees set by the party for the primary are those for the six Congressional District races, and for the state Senate. The district fees are $2,000, and the senate fees are $500. The judges Mid fees for other races should be "fairly adjusted downward." The court suggested that 2 per cent of the annual salary of an office would be an appropriate filing fee level, as approved in federal court rulings in similar Alabama and Georgia cases. This would mean and $80 filing fee for the state Senate or House, for example.

Fowler said county which collect fees for House races, "are really hard Mt. That's their sole support." COLUMBIA (AP) The South Carolina Democratic party, which just got out of debt, may be in again soon in the wake of a federal court order cutting primary filing fees to the bone. "This is a real blow to declared Don Fowler, party chairman, "and we plan to appeal." A three-judge federal court Friday ordered the filing fees cut from the present $4,000 maximum for a statewide office to $850, with lesser fees for lesser races. Persons proving indigency could get on the ballot for free. The fees are used to pay the costs of printing and distributing ballots, and manning the state's more than 1,600 polling places.A primary costs about $150,000.

i Because of the fact candidate filing closed today for the June 27 primary, the-'court told the party to collect present fees and make appropriate rebates later. "We're going ahead with plans for the primary," Fowler Mid, "despite the, appeal. We'll set a new scale of fees later." He added that he didn't anticipate that filing by indigent candidates would have any "material" effect on the financial picture, although "it might swell lists of candidates only time will tell." The ruling of the three-judge panel granted the plea for injunctive relief sought by U. S. Senate candidate John Bolt Culbertson, Greenville attorney, He and his opponent for the Democratic nomination, State Sen.

E. N. "Nick" Zeigler of Florence, both posted $4,000 ill- ing fees. The fee for an unopposed candidate would have been $5,000. The Greenville attorney has characterized Zeigler as "the handpicked candidate of the party hierarchy." Because filing closed today, there was little liklihood of a sudden surge o( candidates.

But in the future, the indigency ruling could swell the lists of contenders, as could the much lowered fees for those able to pay. Because there is Insufficient time before the Democratic primary for the Democratic executive commitee or some other appropriate subsidiary body "to determine and promulgate" new filing fees, the court "The Democratic party and its subsidiary branches shall retain intact all filing fees collected, or to be collected, in connection with the primary elections to be held in June, 1972, until further order in this proceeding. "After the Democratic party, through its appropriate constituent agency, has fixed reasonable filing fees, within the maximum heretofore stated (subject to possible judicial review, if appropriate), the Mid party or its branches shall refund to all candidates any amounts over such' reasonable fees so set: Those claiming indigency, the court said, may be called on later to prove it in a hearing before some officer of the party. Deciding the case were U. S.
