The article presents information on the civil rights movement in the U.S. during the late 1960's. Activities in South Carolina have touched highly sensitive nerves and struck at some of the major pillars on which the state has rested its policies. Since the collapse of the cotton and rice crops early in the century, the state has been forced to look elsewhere for money. One source has been the military. Another source has been increasing industrialization. South Carolina, like other Southern states, has been engaged in a frantic scramble over the past twenty years to convince Northern industries to move down, offering generous tax incentives and the promise of a cheap, unorganized labor force.
