FINANCE MEASURE GOES TO SENATE HOUSE PASSES APPROPRIATION BILL AS SUBMITTED Increase in One Salary Only Alteration Made?*?iany Amendments Sno-.vca Under The State, 10. With only one change, and that, by * the way an increase of $000 in the salary of a secretary, the general appropriation bill as submitted by the ways and means, parsed its second * * f* -i-1- . 1 1 reaujng oeiore cm nr.use las^, ni^ni, and despite the bombardment of amendments to which it was exposed, it goes to the senate unscathed in practically the identical shape in * which it came frc-m the hands of the ways and means committee. With the echoes of the speeches made at the taxpayers' meeting yesterday afternoon hardly silent in the hall, the house heard the appropria lion bill read, saw the amendments submitted and heard speeches made in efforts to cut down certain appropriations. But so strong were ihe forces which rallied to the support of the ways and means committee that ' the bill suffered not a change but the one mentioned above; not a single cie1 partment of the state government was cripplc-d by curtailment by the house and n^. a single employee's position was abolished. The bill carries a to tal appropriation of $G,5S4?3G1.7i. Two Days in One Not only did the house give the appropriation bill a second reading but it put in two legislative days, stopping the clock before the hands readied midnight and adjourning. It reconvened at 12:02 this morning, heard the bill given a third reading and y then ordered it sent to the senate. Most of the amendments to the appropriation bill were offered by Representatives J. K. Owens of Marlboro; G. W. Binnicker of Orangeburg; E. P. Brace of Oconee; E. A. Brb\vn of Barnwell and McK. Barr of Lexington. Other members fought some items in the bill strongly but the bill in the hands of. Representatives E. T. Huges, chairman of the ways and means committee; C. X. Sapp of Richland, Thomas McMillian of Char leston, R. I. McDavid of Greenville and others rolled steadily alons and was never seriously threatened ? though time after time a division was called for when the vote was close. , The house started off bravely enough to read the document item ' by item but when it had waded f through 18 sections it adopted see-, tlon by seetion and at one time a mof -tion was made to adont the bill as a - ' whole as it came- from the ways and means committee. The fight against the bill reached ? its culmination in the attack c;i the Lv # tax commission, amendments being : made to practically every item. Ev< ery amendment was laid on the table 1 r.nd when a last amendment was made to give the tax commission $100 with 1^' ?i-?.v .._x, :1.a ~ ?.l < Yv'iliCfi lO opLMULJ, tj;c u!i;vnui!i?;;u %?as lozt by a vote of 70 to 20. F.cfuses Increases k- Not only did the ways and moans committee and their supporters resist all efforts cuccessfullv to cut ar>pro... t * * priations, but they tabled all motions for increases, except in one instance, ' that being an increase of a salary of ' the supreme couil secretary from $1,200 to 81,800. / One entirely new item was admitted into the bill, this being an appro priation cf $1,000 for the empioymenc, as occasion demands, of a den/ ' taI suivcon at the nenitent<a?y. When discussing the ofSce of the commissioner of agriculture, it was brought - out that the sum of $5,000 for printing inb market bulletin had rj, 'been appropriated, provided that the bulletin is printed at Clem son college. The bill, as rent to the senate, prcvirJpc: n tri" of i! mills on all the ;ks taxable property of the slate be lev, -ied. It ais'o provides for the suspension for this year of the two rniil tax levied on all the taxable properly for the ^construction of highways and bridges. It is believed that the senate will give the app? onrration bill quick consideration, and the fact that the way" ^and means committee of ihe hou.v.:. and the ftnanee committee of the senate have been heldine; .io:ii'. sessions for several week-; will, it :z 'believed, further expedite the progress of the measure in the seriate in that many members will be Intimately acquainted with itSv numerous .details.
