Revenue. Commissioner Osborne today
said that two of the special income
tax collectors, who have been author
lied by congress under the Under-
/ wood Simmons law, would probably
be assigned to South Carolina. The
places pay close to $500 a year and
are not subject to the civil service. AS
these special collectors are under the
collector for the state. It. is presumed
that his recommendations will have
considerable weight In their selection,
| though political endorsements viii by
no means be ignored. II is thought
that the appointments will be made
| within the next month or six weeks
