TO WAIVE CLAIM AGAINST STATE Action r radically insures Jimiia 01 South Carolina Starting With a Clean Sheet. !P. H. McGowan in The State. "Washington, June 26.?The house j r^ :-^today, in considering the military appropriation 'bill, agreed to waive the claim of the United States govern/mon-f offdinot tlio Cfoto r>f Qrvnf-Vi 0-U.^-Ll L V/A. kJVU.UXA VU1 olina for military property lost and damaged some years ago. This claim originally amounted to something like $104,000, but was subsequently reduced, through the efforts of Adjutant General Moore, Gov. Manning, and others, to about $30,000. This matter has given much trouble to the State authorities of South I t Carolina for a long time and recently i: both Gov. Manning and Gen. Moore a came io Washington and saw the war ' o department officials regarding the 11 matter. At that time they were as- c sured that it would soon be satisfac- j c torily arranged. Today's action of the j t house in waiving this claim substan- c tially wipes out this old obligation e and places the militia forces of the s State on a clean basis again with no , f nrnnprtv loss shortage standing i c X' - ^ r- ? - - ? against them. ] ? i DJR.
