MILITARY ON STRIKE; DUTY COST $10,225 SHOWS REPORT Statement of Expenditures by the Coast Artillery Corps at Ander son Recently. The Spartanburg company of coast artillery was one of the five compa nies that went to Anderson in re sponse to the call of the governor, in connection with the labor situa tiotr in November. The cost to the state was $10,225.73 for this special detail, from November 10 to 23, ac cording to the report of Maj. Wil liam F. Robertson, of Greenville, which is incorporated in the annual report of the adjutant and inspector general, which has ' been transmitted to the legislature, and copies of which have been received 'here. The figures are interesting because of the t fact that the local company was one of the units that went to Anderson in response to the call of the governor. The total payroll amounted to $10,408.50. The report shows that the ration cost was between 26 and 27 cents, which is lower than that designated by the government for the coming year, and all provisions had to be bought locally. "Generally speaking, the conduct of the officers and enlisted men is worthy of the highest commenda tion," says the report, commenting on the special tour of outy. "It was entirely due to the good judgment, the general behavior and the sobriety of the entire membership of the corps that achieved the results sought for, and that without conflict and without even a show of unkindness 'to any of the parties concerned." In one paragraph of the report, Major Robertson in .his reports com mends "the ready loyalty to duty of the adjutant of the corps, Capt. Har old B. Seyle (Greenville), and the energy and good judgment of Lieut. George C. Cartwright, corps quarter master. Major Robertson also particularly expressed his deep appreciation of "the alwvays prompt and ready re sponse to every.ordecr and call to duty of the five commanding officers, Cal) tains Slattery, Wallace, Ellerbe, Till man andi Lieutenant Bell."-Spartan burg Journal. -o - Charleston's A utomob~ile Show.
