S. c. LEGISLATORS
/. GET DOWN To WORK

COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. 12.-The
report of the joint legislative COM
mittee on economy and consolida-
ton was the principal topic of con-
versation among the members of the
general assembly today, but they
have not digested it fully enough to
hazard any decided opinion, except
in spots. However, opposition to it
is beginning to show in both houses,
but not enough to gauge what the
majority sentiment will be.
The committee represented its eX-
pense account to the house Tuesday,
totaling $12,619.06 since it's organiza:
ton in June, 1921. Of this aggregate,
$3.50 went to pay of investigating
staff, $970.17 to travelling expenses of
investigating staff, 81 ,061.6 to steno-
members of the committee, $3.50 to
Geographic and telephone service,
$20S.S6 to office supplies, $50 to pay
for porter, and SIS for one second
hand typewriter. This was received
as information and ordered printed
in the journal.
The house, just after commencing,
received and accepted the resigna-
ton Of D. D. Noise, representative
from Sumter, who has been elected
to the senate from his county to
succeed the late Senator John c..
Clifton, and w. r. Brown, repre-
sentative from Cherokee county.
Eugene S. Blease, elected as rep
resentative from Newberry county
to succeed the late Mr.. George S.
Mower, was sworn IN. J. B. Britton,
representative-elect from Sumter
county to succeed Mr.. Noise, was
not able to be present and be
sworn in.
The sinking fund commission, mott
fled the legislature that it had made
the following loans, on instructions
from the general assembly, during
the year: To the state hospital for
the insane, 100000, to the Universe
ty of South Carolina, $4,000, and
to Winthrop college, $37, 500.
Appropriations Cut Favored
Mr.. Clinkscales, Of Anderson, in
troduced a concurrent resolution,
which was referred to the ways and
means committee, providing for 70
per cent cut in the appropriations OF
1921, and requested the finance COM
mitees of both houses to work to-
ward this end.
A house resolution by Mr.. Sapp,
Of Richland, extending the hall Of
the house to T. Cushing Daniels, of
Washington, an eminent economist,
to lecture on moneys, credits, ETC.,
next Wednesday night, was adopted.

Albany Makes Good
Banking Arrangement

ALBANY, Ga, Jan. 12.-During
the coming year the city of Albany
will receive 4 IL per cent interest on
its daily bank balances, and 4 ga per
cent interest on it's sinking fund and
other time deposits. In addition to
this, if it becomes necessary for the
city to borrow money, it will be able
to do so at a rate Of interest one per
cent higher than the prevailing rate
at the federal reserve bank in New
York, which means that the city will
pay only about 6 per cent for such
borrowed money.
These advantageous arrangements
have been made as a result of com.
petitive bidding between the various
banks Of the city for the designa-
ton as city depository. The success
full bidder was the Georgia National
bank, which made the offer above
referred to,

EXPANSION PLAN

nv THEODORE THLER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Indica-
tons point to the fact that congress
will not act for some time on the
report of the Mckenzie subcommit-
tee of the house military committee
recommending consolidation at Camp
Benning, Ca, of additional training
activities of the army. This report
has yet to be adopted by the full
military committee and then must
go on the house calender. In the
end it is probable that Camp Benning
will be enlarged, and there is no
doubt of the permanency of the
Georgia camp, but the consolidation
may not be authorized at this SEES
sion of congress.
Senate and house members from
states from which it is proposed to
move camps became busy today to
prevent the consolidation and save
their home state camps.
The report of the Mckenzie sub
committee argues that the army has
a school for engineers at Camp
Humphreys, tank school at Camp
Meade and a signal corps school at
Camp Alfred Vail, N. j., and an
infantry school at Camp Benning.
The subcommittee contends all these
different branches of the service
must necessarily work side by side
when an army in real wartime is on
the front-line and that there is no
necessity for having special schools
along these different lines at differ
ent locations with resulting large
overhead expense and unco-ordinated
effort, and recommends that all these
schools mentioned be concentrated
in one school at one place, and that
Camp Benning is particularly well
suited for the purpose.
The subcommittee claims that con-
solidation into one institution at
Camp Benning would result in great
economy for the government. The
country in the vicinity of Camp Ben.
ming is of a broken character, with
high ridges, large streams, adaptable
to practice in building pontoon
bridges and for the other activities
incident to schools for military tech
meal training. The engineering
school was formerly located at the
Washington barracks in this city
and was shifted to Camp Humph-
reys. To build up great engineer
ing school at HUMPHREYS, the report
says, would cost millions Of dollars.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Sena-
tor Harris receiving kilograms
from women's clubs throughout
Georgia asking that he withdraw
his opposition to the confirmation
Of Mrs. Christine Hankison nomi.
mated postmistress at McDonough,
Ga. Several officers Of the Atlanta
Womans club, as we'll as individual
women throughout the state, are I'M
derstood to have interested them
selves in Mrs. Kankinson's case, fol-
lowing publication in The Journal
dispatches that Senator Harris was
delaying confirmation.
The senior Georgia senator ex-
planned that he is not seeking alto
gether to prevent the confirmation
of Mrs. Hankinson. There are no
charges filed against the woman APP
pointee al McDonough, and Senator
Harris has no personal objection to
her. He would not take his opposi-
ton to the point of filibustering
against confirmation, nor informing
the senate that it was Objectionable
to him.
Senator Harris explains that all he
has done to delay action on the
Hankinson confirmation until he can
get an explanation from the post
office department of it's postoffice APP
pointment policy as it affects ex-
service men. Senator Harris has
understood from the department
that former soldiers were to be given
preference once thew obtained a
place on the eligible list.
At McDonough, it is said, Robert
Hendley Daniel, an ex-service man,
was eligible for nomination. Friends
of Mr.. Daniel want to know why
the postoffice department has not
followed its so-called policy favor
ing former soldiers.
After obtaining the desired infor.
nation, it is probable that Senator
Harris will no longer delay the con-
ffrmation of Mrs. Hankinson and
that her nomination will go throug''
but, meanwhile, Senator Harris
wants to know what will be the at
titude Of the Republican administra-
ton in future cases of this sort

SUMMERTIME is DYING TIME.

AS a nation we are nothing II not
sorigiual-perhaps spectacular, SO a
splendid opportunity presents to cap
the climax and reach the unique in
the public interest. When the deVel-
opments involving the obtaining of a
pardon for Charles w. Morse come
more sharply to the front-and they
will-let us have as the leading wit
ness, Chief Justice Taft of the Court
of Appeals. Justice Taft is beloved
by all the people. He is one of our
most distinguished and honored citi-
zens. As a witness he would be a top
notcher, and there is no doubt he
could throw much light on the Morse
situation. Ten minutes of testimony
by Justice Taft under skilled guild
ance would unfold to the people the
whole story of the Morse pardon, and
show the strings that were pulled to
draw the wool over the eyes of the
good-natured president of that time.
The story would be Illuminating and
sufficiently dramatic to meet the de-
mands of the y%ellowest of the yellows.
Perhaps this consummation devoutly
to be wished may become reality, be-
cause news developments are un-
usually rapid. so rapid. in fact. that it
would seem TO be time for Mr.. Morse
TO begin dying again.

Salmon of Pacific Waters Discovered

Salmon of Pacific Waters Discovered
in Eastern Canadian Lake.
A fish has become part of the rec
ords of the Canadian government. .
An entry recently made in the off,
cial archives showed that a few weeks
ago a spring or quinnat salmon, known
heretofore only in the waters of the
Pacific coast, was caught in the Bay
of Quinte. 1t was a male in spawning
condition, weighed 3ha pounds and
was 33 inches long.
Three years ago the department of
fisheries planted quinnat salmon in
Lake ontario. Several million fry
were set free. They lost themselves
in the great lake. Nothing more vas
known of them. Whether they per-
ished or thrived. remained In the
deeps of Lake Ontario or, following
the migratory bent of their kind, found
their way to the Atlantic through the
st. Lawrence was an enigma.
The scheme was a gigantic gamble.
The Bay of Quinte salmon is the first
indication that the government has
won and the waters of eastern Can
ada have been enriched with a new
game fish.
