Thursday, January 5, 1922.

The Columbia committee on the
unemployment problem has submit
ted a lengthy report to the governor,
with several important recommend
ations. Chief among these is the
recommendation that all public build
ing projects be inaugurated at once
in order to afford employment for
as many persons as possible. While
building projects will not keep
very large number of persons en-
ployed, still the projects anticipated
in Bamberg county would give work
to several hundred employees for
several months. AS already stated
In The Herald contracts have been
awarded for the construction of the
Edisto river bridge at cost of $685.
900, and the causeway through the
swamp for approximately $4,000.
The building of the proposed high
way from Bamberg to Edisto river
on the Charleston road would add
some 100000 to the public expendi-
lures. II the proposed high school
building were erected in Bamberg
this year, it would probably put
something like $4,000 more in cir
culation. Thus, if the work that is
now proposed is carried out this year,
II will mean a hundred thousand dol
lars paid in wages during the year.
That this would afford tremendous
relief to the unemployment problem
cannot be doubted. There is a fur
ther reason for doing construction
work at present. Labor is now
cheaper than in years, and no doubt
cheaper than it will be year hence.
A building may be erected or road
constructed now for considerably
less than next fall or next year. There
are two distinct advantages for the
carrying forward of building and
construction projects now: The
saving of money in the operations,
and the giving of employment to un-
employed persons.
