session of 1922 there were printed
4,240 pages of bills.
There was also appropriated for
the operating expense of the commit
tee for 1922, s4,991; for equipment,
81 800; and as a revolving fund to
purchase office supplies, $4,000. OF
the amount for operating expenses
several hundred dollars will probably
be unused and will revert to the
treasury, which is likewise true OF
the amount for equipment. This
equipment will practically pay for
itself in 1922, and as It's probable
life is five or six years there is a
considerable net gain to the state.
The revolving fund is exactly what
its name implies. 1t is used to pur-
chase office supplies for the various
departments. These supplies which,
before this committee began to act
as purchasing agent, were bought at
retail prices in small quantities, are
now bought at wholesale, entailing a
saving of practically $4,000 for 1922.
This money is refunded to the state
treasury as the different departments
settle their accounts.
There is another phase Of the COM
mittee's work which has been produc-
tive of lowered operating costs for
other departments Of the government.
Contracts for all job printing for the
various departments are awarded
through this office. A considerable
sum has been saved not only by Sc
curing the best prices by competitive
bidding, but expert advice in the use
of paper has saved a great amount
of money. Besides there is a tend
ency towards coordination and stand
ardization which has often prevented
the printing of unnecessary forms.
The small expense to which the
state is put for the operating ex-
penses of the joint committee on
printing is returned many times in
the economies which the committee
has been able to egect. The commit
tee is the one department Of the gov
ernment which was instituted simply
and solely for the purpose Of econo-
mizing. That it has more than full
filled the mission which the authors
of the act creating it had in mind
is clearly demonstrated by the figures
given above, which are taken from
the public records.

SOME FACTS ABOUT
THE PUBIC PRINTING.

To the Editor:
respectfully request space in your
valuable paper to give a few facts
and figures, compiled from the pub
lie records, in regard to the work of
the joint committee on printing.
The committee was established by
lew in 1916 as result of an inves-
tiration of a special committee OF
both houses, The findings of which
showed that the method of handling
tic states printing was careless and
inefficient, and that more efficient
method could be made to yield large
dividends for a small investment OF
expense. These conclusions Of the
special committee were we'll founded,
as subsequent developments have
proved. Gradually the work of the
committee has expanded until today
not only the public printing is ham
died by it, but all office supplies and
printing for all departments of the
state government are purchased
through the committee and the to-
tai net savings aggregate consider
able sum.
The average annual cost of the pub
lie printing for the siX-year period
from 1911 to 1917 was s32,901.S1,
while for the six-year period from
1917 to 1923 the average annual cost
is so far S2s,1Os, with the permanent
ccGe of laws of 1922 still to be paid
for, which will make general aver
age of S32,444.66 a year for the past
six years, though this average will
be reduced by refunds from the sale
of the 1922 code. This reduction Of
the average yearly cost has been at
tanned despite the fact that within the
past few years the cost Of printing
has more than doubled and the ode
fiation" in this industry has not kept
pace with that in other lines. (The
price of book paper of the grade used
for the state printing is now 8 1-2 to
9 cents per pound, as against 4 to 5
cents per pound in 1914 and previ-
Gus years. At one time it reached
Is cents. Wages, which increased an
average of about 100 per cent, have
not declined at all).
The figures of cost for public print
ing for the years 1911 to 1912, both
inclusive, are as follows:
First Period.
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1922-08-17

1922 (including permanent
code, estimated) ------- 67,O6O.0O
1t will be noted that during the
first three years of the committees
existence the amount spent for pub
lie printing was practically cut in
half. This was accomplished by re-
ducing the volume of reports printed
by state officials and by the elimina-
tion of much useless duplication in
the public printing. The increased
cost for the past few years has been
due to advanced prices for printing
and to the inclusion of both the tenn
porary and permanent code of laws,
which the constitution requires to be
printed twice at each recurring Pc
ricd of ten years. Under the con-
tract made for the publication Of the
permanent code this committee will
receive considerable sum from the
sale of the code to members of the
bar and other. This money Will be
refunded to the state treasury and
should be deducted from the appro-
priation of 1922.
Comparing 1914 and 1922.
In order to make an accurate COM
parison of 1914 and 1922 it is neces-
sary to make somewhat of an analysis
of the 1922 appropriation. Of the
total of $76,s51 appropriated this
year s49,274.52 will be expanded for
public printing proper as against
s39,495.59 for 1914. Reports Of
boards, commissions, etc., created
since 1914, changes in the law which
required payment from public print
ing funds instead of from depart
ment funds, together with reports OF
special assembly, accounts for s5,-
833.5S of the difference, leaving
actually spent for the same work on
| " s4,487.49 more in 1922 than in
1914, when everyone knows. or can
easily ascertain, that the cost OF
printing is now practically doubled
what it was in 1914. Had there ben
no joint committee on printing IT
1922 the probabilities are that the
appropriation would have been con-
siderably in excess Of 100000.
In comparing the years 1914 anc
1922 the extra session of 1911 has
been included. If it is believed that
this is unfair the following figures
will show that n volume of work over
which the committee could have nc
control the comparison is, if any
thing, unfair to 1922.
The acts of 1914, both regular anc
special sessions, contained 1888 page:
whereas the acts of 1922 contained
94S pages. In 1914 for both regular
and special sessions, there were print
ed 4,492 pages of bills, while for thu
