THE MATTER OF REFUNDNG
THE STATES INDEBTEDNESS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE H.

discrimination in favor Of the South
Carolina four and one-half per cent.
Brown Consols and against United
States bonds. The proceedings were
brought against the county auditor
and the interests Of the State were
handled by the attorney general s
Office. Judge Prince overruled every
contention Cf the plaintiff banks and
sustained every contention Of the at
torney general. 1 am attaching the
decree of Judge Prince to this mes
sage, and this decree lconclusively
shows to my mind that the objections
to the provision recommended by me
and the arguments upon which such
objections were based, were not we'll
taken and are not tenable. So clearly
has this matter been determined in
the decree of Judge Prince, and so con-
elusive are his findings, that even the
attorneys for the banks who brought
the proceedings must have been con-
vinced of the correctness of tle judge
conclusions and findings, for l am in
formed by the attorney general that
no appeal or notice of appeal to the
supreme court has been filed in the
proceedings.
Governors Contention Sustained.
In the early part of January, 1913,
and just before your last convention
in annual session, proceedings were
Instituted in the supreme court Of
South Carolina, entitled State, ex re-
latione W. w. Ray v Cole. L. Blease,
governor, ct al. These proceedings
were brought for the purpose of test
ing the legality of the proposed issue
of the refunding bonds under the Act
of 1912. Many references were had
and much testimony was taken both
within the State of South Carolina and
also in the cities of Baltimore, New
York, Boston, Hartford and Worcester,

State of The Bond Market.

In this connection, beg to call your
attention to the state of the bond
market generally during the past year
and to quote you a short item publihed
in New York financial journal on the
7th day of June, 1913, which shows in
a general way the conditions of the
bond market at that time: Bids ag-
gergating $36,43O,O0O were received by
the State comptroller for the $27,OOO,-
600 New York State notes, dated June
10, and due February 2, 1914. Average
interest rate bid was about 4.97 per
cent. Averegae interest rate
received by the State from
the SO successful bidders was
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1914-02-06

4.86 per cent. There were 80 bid
ders in all. This was the first time
New York State ever sold s2ort-term
notes. Authority to do 50 was embod'
led in bill passed at the last legisl&
ture granting the comptroller permis-
sion to sell short-term securities with
interest not exceeding ) per cent. in
anticipation OF sale OF lons-term
bonds. Rate Of interest on future is
sues cf State bonds was also increased
by the legislature from per cent. to
415 per cent, and it is the intention
of the State authorities to sell bonds
at that rate early next year to take UP
these $27,OOO,OOO notes
In the foregoing, 1 have, to my mind,
conclusively shown that the objections
urged against my recommendation as
to the tax exemption cannot be sus-
tainec; I have shown from the test1-
mony quoted that it is. not only to the
best interest of the State and to the
advantage of the sale of the bonds, but
that owing to the present condition
of the money market, the bonds can
not be sold at par; the finances Of the
State would be sacrificed and the in
terests and credit of the State would
suffer untold injury under the present

ure.
81 cannot believe that any promises
have been made by any one to pur-
chase these bonds at par without tais
provision, whereas I feel sure that
with this provision they would readily
bring more than par if sold. I would
be very. glad if you could advise me as
to what further steps, if any, l should
take in this matter.
Thanking you in advance, and With
kind ergards, | am,
Yours very truly,
