GOVERNOR TO RECOMMEND
'., SOME RADICAL CHANGES
Central Control for Colleges anC
Penal Institutions.

Central Control for Colleges and
Penal Institutions.
Radical legislation, involving the
abolition's of certain state depart
ments will be recommended by Gov-
ernor Cooper to the next general as
sembly, which convenes in January.
Governor Cooper said today that he
proposed recomm ending to the legis-
lature the abolition Of the. boards of
the various penal institutions and the
creation in their stead of one central
control body, and also the repeal OF
all special school district legislation
and the enactment in it's place of one
statute covering all such special dis
tricts, which would put them under
the control of the state board of edu-
cation.
The governors plan is to recon-
mend the abolition Of the board OF
directors of the state penitentiary,
the board of the state hospital, the
boards of the various reformatories.
His idea is to have in place of them
one board of control, which would
administer the affairs of all the pen
al institutions.
With regard to the educational IN
stitutions, the governors idea is that
suggested by him to the legislature
last year, for the appointment of one
central board of trustees to take the
place of the boards of the various
schools. This would mean the aboli-
ton of the boards of trustees of the
University of South Carolina, of Win
throp college, of Clemson college, of
the Citadel and possibly other educa-
tional institutions, such as the Medi-
cal college of Charleston, and the
School for the Deaf and Blind, at
Spartanburg.

Construction placed by charit- able organizations also is withdrawn from the sale.
 h the case of Camps Beauregard, Hancock Logan and Sevier, the base hospitals already have been turned over to the public neaitn service.

 Bidders will be required to assume all land and property damage claims and must give the government satis- factory proof within one year that these claims have been met. Substan- tial bends will be required for per formance of contract. The government will continue all leases for five months after date of sale in order that the purchaser may have this time to re- move ali buildings and debris
 The 30 camps it was said OfficiaiiN today, embrace ali that the govern ment has definitely decided to sell. Thirteen others have been recon mended for disposal by the genera staff and will be offered for sale as approved by Secretary Baker.
