COMMITTEE FINDS
BICSAVINCS
NOT PRACTICAL
EFFICIENCY EXPERTS FIND
THAT AS A WHOLE ECONOMY
IS THE RULE-SOME SAE-
INGS CAN BE EFF
FECTED.

Pessimists who see little good IN
the government of the state OF Soctn
Carolina as at present constituted ap-
parently will derive little consolation
from the report to be made to the leg
;islature by the joint legislative COM
mittee on economy and consolida ton.
The committee met in Columbia two
days last week with all members pres
ent except Representative E. T.
Hughes Of Marion, who was kept
away by his wife's illness. Senator
Niels Christensen, chairman, of Beau
fort, Senator T. A. Miller of Harts-
willie, Senator W. Fred Lightsey of
Hampton, Representative John K.
Han1bIin Of Union and Representative
j.; Ed. Anderson of Timnaonsville
held two long sessions in order to
outline the report to be made to the
legislature and in addition paid per-
sonal visits to a number Of depart
ments and institutions.
After comforting with the local rep
reseatatives Of Griffenhcgen & Asso-
ciates, Ltd, of Chicago, the indus
tria: engineers who have been max
ing detailed Investigations Of the or
ganization and procedure of the va
rious state agencies, and after going
over the various reports submitted
the committee arrived at the conclu-
sion that the state government is not
as bad as has often been represented.
Many imperfections exist and the
committee believes that very material
economies can be effected but on the
other hand a number OF the state
agencies appear to be equal 70 or &C
tually in advance o. those in other
states doing the same kind Of work.
The main object Of this meeting was
to determine which CT the state agen
'cies are so we'll organized and man
aged that no economics OF conse-
quence seem possible. These We're list
ed in order that the committee be-
tween now and the time Of it's next
meeting, December l and >, may
give it's undivided attention to those
departments and institutions where
improvements and economies are
needed.
Commends Health Work
Among the units characterized by
the industrial engineers as at least
the equal in most respects of any
other of the kind in the country is
the state board Of health. This state
agency, it was reported, is undertak-
ing very advanced public health work
such as malaria prevention, venereal
disease control, rural sanitation, the
manufacture and distribution Of SER
ums and vaccines, and the complete
collection Of vital statistics. Most of
the activities, moreover, are being
carried on with high degree Of eff
cheney and at low expense. The en-
gineers pointed out that other states
doing less public health work with a
lower degree of efficiency have
achieved national regulations and
they expressed surprise that most
South Carolinians are so little appre-
ciative Of the work done by the South
Carolina state board Of health. How
ever, the internal organization and the
handling of financial affairs are not
satisfactory to the committee.
Equally high praise is given the
State hospital at Columbia. which is

expectations, but served to confirm the
talk of improving textile trade conditions

cotton was obtainable in the South around

checked buying, but this selling pressure

NATIONAL RACE CLOSER
Giants, Who Defeat Cubs, Within
! 1-2 Games Of Pirates,
DoWned by DODGERS.

An error by Pitcher Cooper of the
Pirates and good batting by Irish
Meusel of the Giants, yesterday were
responsible for the further Tightening
up of the National League pennant
race. The miscue enabled the Dodgers
to beat the league leaders, while the
outfielder's slugging was largely re-
sponsible for the runner-up clubs
victory over the Cubs. AS result,
the Pirates now hold an advantage of
but one and one-half games over the
Giants. In the only other contest
in the circuit the Reds handed the
Braves their seventh straight defeat.
The Dodgers blanked the Pirates, l
to 0. COoper's error, the only misplay
in the game, let in the run. Myers of
the Dodgers. who had doubled with
two out in the ninth inning. ran all
the way home when the Pirate pitcher
failed to catch throw. while covering
first base.
With Meusel making a triple. a dou-
BILE and a single. besides sacrifice. In
five times up. the Ginats nosed out
the Cubs. s to z. to register their
seventh consecutive victory. During
the engagement the Giants made five
sacrifice hits and the Cubs four. KEEL
ly. leading home-run hitter Of the
league. had two sacrifices. Hollocher
hit for the circuit.
The Braves hold third place with
Cards. since the formers 10 to 4
trouncing by the Reds. Rixey was hit
hard. but was effective in the pinches.
while the Reds chased McQuillan in
the fifth and slammed Morgan and

BRAVES DRAW THRONCS
Will Double Figures of Last Sea-
son, Total Being Esti-
mated at 100000.

BOSTON, August 30.-The Boston
Nationals will double last years at
tendance figures at Braves field by
the end of the season. The total will
exceed $4,000 persons. club officials
estimated today on the basis of rec
ords to date.
The largest attendance at any game
this year was $4,000, the crowd that
turned out to see Pirates and Braves
in one conflict. This was the only in
stance in which attendance was more
than 10000. but the figures on other
games were high enough to make the
average for each playing date better
than 5000 persons.
A proposal to have a group of Braves
players tour Cuba this fall has been
