Appropriation Bill Total
$5,67l,685.47 as Reported
Citadel and Medical Colleges Are Cut--Carona and Glenn
son Get IncreasesTotal Reductions Amount
to l,095, ,450.85

Columbia, Feb 14.-Thc general
appropriation bill, carrying un aggre-
gate of $5,671 ,G84.47, for the opera
tion and maintenance of State depart
ments, institutions and agencies tor
1922, was introduced in the House tf
Representatives by the ways and
means committee tonight. The bills
total is $1,095,450.83 less than the
general appropriation measure of
1921. The various departments and
institutions asked for $8,O87 ,542. .95,
and of this amount $6,466,24O.15 was
recommended by the Governor as
chairman of the budget commission.
The ways and means committee
has seen fit to reduce the clerical
help of the State receiving more
than $1,000 annually 10 per cent of
their salary except in a few cases.
The salaries of State Offices are not
reduced, nor do the members Of
the Legislature cut their own sala-
ries. In at least one case, that of
the corporation clerk in the office
of the Secretary of State, the posi-
ton is entirely abolished. No ap-
preparation is made for extra audit
ors under the Comptroller General
to review county books. The wages
of all porters in the State House
were reduced, some of them SO per
cent.
Among the big cuts compared
with the appropriations for 1921
were the Comptroller Generals of
flee, $4,000; the Citadel, $29O,OOo;

REPRESENTATIVE CURTIS
EXPLAINS HIS POSITION
Columbia, S. c., Feb. Id, 1922.
Mr.. l. l. Applet, Editor,
Manning Times,
Manning, S, G..


Manning Times,
Manning, S. G.
Dear Sir:
In last weeks issue of your paper
there appeared an article copied from
the Columbia State of few days pre-
vious under the caption: "Charges
brought against county officers" and
these statements are attributed to
Representative Hanahan and myself.
Some of my remarks are enclosed
IN quotation marks, which would lead
the reader to believe that these were
my exact words. / do not remember
my exact words as the debate was not
a written one, and have stated to
the officers of my County in person
that l did not intend to charge them
III my remarks. The statements along
this line were in answer to a question
asked me from one of the members
as to whether or not this practice OBJ
tanned in my County. l wish to say
that if my remarks were sufficient to
be construed into a charge, did not
so intend and was indeed very unfor-
tunate in the selection of my re-
marks.
Il notice further that the Sheriff of
Clarendon County has requested that
L prove these statements. In reply
TO the Sheriff, l wish to say that since
l dld not intend to "chargc," l have
no desire to prove and can see moth
ing to be gained by Offering any such
proof other than to gain my point.
Some days after the debate on the
Evans Resolution in the House of
Representatives, former Magistrate
at Gable saw fit to push himself into
the scene and charge me with an at
tempt to defeat Il tax saving measure
by making unfoundcd statements. To
this gentlemen, l wish to say that
have not seen fit to get into news
paper argument with him because he
wishes to take issue with me; but
40 suggest that he make himself more
iamlllar with these So-callcd tax saw
ing measures instead of accepting the
mere statement that they are taX-sav-
ing. Further, l appreciate his per-
Sonal reference and it serves only to
make me strive harder to do my duty
here blouse Of Representatives. as l
see 1t, and to accomplish more, if pos
siblc, at home.
l enclose herewith Il copy of Mr..
Evans remark which appeared in the
Columbia State several days subsc-
qucnt to the former article. Mr..
Evans was the author of the Rcsolu-
ton which | tried hard to defeat, and
he as the author states that he did
not understand my remarks as a
charge against the officers of my
County: He is, therefore, il bit more
charitable than some of the others.
On the otherhand, do not wish to
be understood as rctrcnching from
my position on the question of the
Evans Resolution.
Yours very truly,
Harold c. Curtis.

RED CROSS PUBLIC
HEALTH NOTES

Two more schools have been in
spected since the last edition Of The
Manning Times, namely, Jordan, and
haywood. 1t is more than gratifying
to find teachers and pupils interest
ed in their health and trying to live
up to higher standard than in pre-
vous years. In both o. the schools
the general condition has improved
since last year. This speaks we'll for
the educational work being done by
the nurse, and the untiring efforts Of
the teachers. Although there are
many phases which need improving,
regards health needs and the nurse is
highly encouraged in her work.
The summary report of the school
at Jordan is as follows:
No. inspected - ---5
No. vaccinated
No. having defective eyes -------14
No. having defective ears --3
No. having enlarged tonsils ---24
No. having nasal distractions ----1
No. having defective teeth -------43
No. having defective skins and scalps

j. j. Evans Of Bcnncttsvi!lc, rising
to a point of personal privilege in the
house of representatives last night,
stated that it had come to his atten-
ton that the sire of certain officials
of Clarendon county" had been arous-
ed against Representative II. G. Cur
tbs by an incident in the debate Of
Evans resolution to permit the ac-
ceptance of pleas of guilty by circuit
Judges at chambers in all cases except
capital fclonics.
This criticism, Mr.. Evans said,
might have been occasoncd by his
reply to Mr.. Curtis argument on the
question and he therefore wanted to
take the opportunity to correct the
impression of these officials if possi-
bic. The statement of Mr.. Curtis as
understood by him, Mr. Evans said,
was not intended to apply to Clalcn-
don county alone.
81 hold Mr.. Curtis in rs high regard
as | do any member of this body"
Mr.. Evans said. "The voice of criti-
ciSm raised against him as ] see it
is uncallcd for and unjust and may
have been suggested by my reply to
Mr.. Curtis. My reply, itself, may
have been unwarranted, but every
member OF the house knows how one
is liable to lose ones head or tongue
in debate. | would like to say to the
people of Clarendon county that no
man ! have known in my IL years OF
association with members Of the house
has given more careful consideration
to legislation than has Mr.. Curtis
Mr.. Evans said that he had not talk
ed with Mr.. Curtis prior to making his
statement

Of this company and It's futures. a. .
Answer - Your inquiry regarding
Urban Motion Pictures Industries, Inc,
raises both legal and financial questions.
We do not give advice on legal mat
terra. but advise you to consult CON-
petent attorney. We consider Urban
Motion Pictures securities wholly un-
suitable for investment purposes, and
have been of this opinion ever since
the securities were aYst offered 30 irl-
yestors by James w. Eliott's Business
Builders, Inc, which is now in the
hands Of receiver. The present
status Of the Business Builders does
not in any way, so far as we know, af-
feet the Urban NJ )tion Pictures Indus
tries, Inc, and does not relieve you Of
the obligation to fulfill your contract
to purchase the Urban shares. Ac-
cording to information furnished us by
an official Of the Urban Pictures Com
psny the principal business Of the
Urban company was the Spirograph,
described as q device that will make
motion pictures practical in schools
and elsewhere outside of theaters. In
August We were notified that the COM
along this line and that it would not be
in production until 1928. Meantime
subsidiary known as the Kineto Com
pany IL said to be publishing Official
Movie Chats and Urban Popular Clas-
sics, and our request for balance sheet
and income account showing progress
met with q refusal and with this ex-
planation: "Any publication of state
ments or other facts by your company
is q publication to the general public,
who have no special interest in our af-
fairs. Our stockholders, of course, are
fully acquainted with what we have
and what we are doing. and receive
from us at the proper periods financial
statements and other information.
There is no occasion, therefore, for
5nem to look to you for this informa-
lion" Have you received information
IF this character? We think that full
publicity in regard TO earnings and to
assets and liabilities Is necessary TO
safeguard the interests of investors.
We advise against the purchase OF Sc
;urities OF companies that maintain
secrecy In such matters.

Weakness of serni-specnlative rail-

rather dull session of the bond market
Yesterday. Declines Ia this group were
largely in sympathy with the trend In
