Rate Discrimination Here to End Sept
COUNTY HOLDS
own, DESPITE
REDUCED TAXES
Audit Reveals Increased Cash On
Hand And No Debts-Pav-
ing Cost Shown

No debts owing other than the ru-
r0I having bonds, and $19,916.55 in
the treasury, was the condition OF
Sumter county financially on May
a 1922, the audit of the county S
records. as reported this week to the
board of county commissioners, re-
yaaled And this in spite of the fact
that general tax receipts for 1921
were off some $35,000 from the pre-
vious wear, amounting to only $134,-
1882 against $169,907.07 in 1920.
TIL expenditures for the year 1921,
however, were practically the same
as the previous year, reimbursement
from federal aid highway building for
the use of county convicts on high
wav projects, and other sources Of
extra revenue making up the differ
ence and permitting an improvement
in the balance of cash on hand
The audit of the road bond fund
shows an unexpended balance of
S247,478.67 Of the $4,000 on
bonds issued, with materials, equip
ment and accounts receivable bring
ing the remaining assets in this de-
partment up to $314,521.95. This
showing reveals the interesting fact
that the eight miles Of highway al
ready constructed with federal aid
and the bond money have cost the
county the difference between $432,-
600 and the amount Of 1914, 4,52195,
or S14,685 per mile, which is well
within the estimatc-and much of
the work was done in 1929 when
costs were higher than now. This
figure, so far as the county's in
terests are concerned, is reduced
somewhat by the reimbursement for
convict labor, etc, allowed by the
government under the federal aid
plan where counties do their own
construction work, this reimburse
ment going tnto the general fund in
stead of the bond fund.
The audit, a summary of which is
published elsewhere in this edition.
Is an interesting document which will
probably prove of interest to every
tax payer in the county. The de-
tailed audit, covering some 80 type-
written pages, is on file in the of

aspect today and feeling became

increase in disorders at scattered
points. 1t is believed yesterday 5
exchange Of letters between Chair
man Ben Hooper of the Labor Board,
and B. M. Jewell, the shopmen's
head, probably opened the way to
negotiations for an early settlement.
In reply to a letter from Mr..
Hooper, which was regarded as con-
ciliatory, Mr.. Jewell declared that the
strikers were willing to consider
any negotiations with any one in au-
thority for settlement Of the strike" !"

Mr.. Jewell 81 include or exclude no

instance, came to US with a definite
proposition, we would not hesitate
to consider it,"
Mr.. Hooper in his letter to Mr..
Jewell denied the latter's charge that

the employees or that it had out
lawed" the strikers. at has only
accepted your own statement that
the striking men are not the employees
of the carriers" the letter said. 1T
has not, however, used the rasping
word outlaw at any time"
After citing numerous instances in
which the board has upheld collective
bargaining and ruled in favor of the
Unions, the latter added;

zation will recover their equilibrium
and discern that it is better for them
