SOUTH CAROLINA
NOW IN lPROAR
Decision of Executive Commit
tee to Postpone Second Pri-
mary Stirs State.

COLUMBIA. :. C.. Sent. 5.-Soutb
Carolina is in an uproar today as a re-
suit Of the decision of the state execu-
tive committee to postpone the second
primary for state officers While the
fraud investigation goes on.
In Anderson and other counties where
the lines are bitterly drawn there is
likely to be serious trouble unless the
governors race is decided soon.
The Anderson county executive COM
mittee is examining witnesses today in
the fraud allegations.
The state committee. which met here
yesterday to begin its investigation of
fraud charges, named a sub committee
of seven to thoroughly probe the re-
cent primary.
The subcommittee was clothed with
fun power and authority to take testi-
mony and make a thorough investiga-
ton of all alleged illegal practices at
the primary. 1t will report at the next
meeting of the committee to be called
by the chairman.
The members of the committee ara
w r. Stevenson. Chesterfield. chair
man; T. B. Butler, Cherokee; ]. B.
Parks, Greenwood; w. B. Wilson. Jr..
York. J. B. Bivens, Dorchester; J. NJ.
Greer, Union, and R. NJ Jeffries, Jas
per.
The protests Of w. Jasper Talbert
and n. B. Dial, candidates for the
United states senate, against the nom
nation Of Senator B. r. Tillman. on
the ground that he failed to file his ex-
pense account az provided by law. were
passed over until the next meeting.
The state committee adjourned To
meet at the call of the state chairman
and the subcommittee will begin the
work of investigation at an early date.
1t is certain that the Blease faction
will do all in its power to prevent an
investigation. Eugene Blease brother
Of the governor, laid the fraud at the
door of the Jones faction, but at the
same time bitterly fought a resolution
which had for it's object a searching
investigation into the alleged irregular
tiles al She ballot boxes
Every county was represented at the
meeting.
