THE PRESIDENT ENDORSES THIS
PLAN FOR THE STATE OF
SOUTH CAROLINA.
is AGAINST GREAT HASTE
President Wilson Thinks That DuplL
cation of the Officers Should Come
Only in Regular course.-Those
Directly lnterestd in This Change.

CoEumbia.-A special from Washing
ton states that it became known here
recently that President Wilson is quite
anxious to have the bill introduced
by Representative Aiken a few days
ago providing for the creation Of
another judicial district in South Car
oltna with additional court officials, or
one similar to DIT, passed at an early
date. The matter has gone 50 tar that
Representative Clayton, chairman OF
the House judiciary committee passed
the matter over to Attorney General
McReynoids and the latter has given
his thorough approval to the plan MT.
McReynolds went deeply into all the
bills that have been offered on this
subject and digested them carefully,
and ascertained from members OF con-
gress and others who are in position
to know what the reasons were tor
the failure of these bills to pass tn
years gone by. That having been done,
according to what was learned here the
situation was presented to the PreS-
dent and he thinks that it might be
weM to have the new district author
tied, but he, 1t is said, is opposed to
providing for such authorization in one
OF the emergency bills, as ts often
dope.
The suggestion was made THAT the
naatber be cared for IN one OF the
emergency bills, or as is known here,
one. Of the deficiency" bills, but this
plan did not meet with the presidents
approval. He thinks that the measure
should take its regular course when
the next session of congress begins dn
December, and this is what will likely
be done.
The three members OF the house
who are most directly interested In the
result of the proposed action are Rep
resentatives Aiken, Johnson and
Byrnes.
