About Appropriations -tComlissioni
er's Department Must Make ''sti
mate or Ie Above Law.
COLU MI IA, Jan. 23.---Direct of
ficial conflict between Governor
Cooper, as chairman of the South Car
olina budget -omnission, and H1. 1Har
ris, commissioner of agriculture, com
merce and industries, has been engen
dcred by certain curtailnents in the
oflice of the latter recommended by
the commission to the General Assem
bly.
The brIget connission failed to
recommend anl appwopriation for the
statistical clerk, two assistant (hem
ists and two inspector.s of the lepar t
ment, all of which t.ere to r'ceivye
salaries of $180(1 -each. Act wa WOs in
cfl'ect an advocacy of te aiolit in or
these positions. lin addition, the 's
t ilmate expensos for tite conduct of
the depar-tment for the year 1920
were reduced from $: !8,200(1 to $1:1,800.
In his .eneral recommendations, the
(overnor suge'ste'I that al1 moneys
expended by anly State deparlfen t
would bec by dir"ctl, sp~eenite appropria
tion. This depatIlmecnt, as opel'ated
at present. if not limited inl its ex
pn's(es nor its specific appropriation
made for the( majority of its activi
ties, its expenses are paid out of the
fe collected by it. In answer to, a
letier written yesterday by ('omm is
sioner l arris to W. R. Bradford,
chairman of the ways and means comn
nittee of the Ilouse of Representa
tives, inl which the right of the budget
commlissilll to make suggestions of
curtailment in his department is cOn
tested, Governor Cooper tonight gave
out a detailed statement in which the
commissioner is taken to task for his
communication.
Governor Answers Hiarris
The Governor says that. unless the
department of Mr. IHarris is above the
law it must furnish detailed financial
infornlation to the governor, despite
the commissioner's assertion that it
co'lncedes the right of the budget.
commission to request appropriations.
The Governor takes the position that.
the present force of seventeen at
taches of the department, including
the Com)i01issioner, is suflicienit to
maintain the department, but he is
willing to be corrected. Ho, however,
says that if Mir. Hiarris has a griev
once against the btudget ()111mSSion
he should have taken it to the (GeneraI
Assembly anl not to the people o(f
the State. The Governor takes shaip
issue with the statement of the com
m11issioner relative to the r"ecommedla
tions of appripriations for the func
tions of the executive's office, and
says that iMr. ia0rris' sta telent that
the violation of the prohibition law

"I regret that .\br. Hlarris felt it to

have been to lay this mater before a
committee of the General Assembly
with full infprmation, so that the
injury don, the department might be
corrected, rather than an appeal to
the people of the State. It is cer
tainly not my desire to restrict any
(lepartment of the State government,
but I ove it to the people of the
State, who have honored me with their
confidence, to see to it also that pub
lie funds are not spent unless nec
essary.
Fourth Complaint
"In the t fourth complaint, it is
stated, 'I have observed with some in
terest that the two department of
the State government which are clos
est to the budget commission namely,
the governor's office and the com
troller general's ollice are of the of
flees which 'lave been served most
generously at the laands of the com
mission.'
"Upon this point, I have no com
ment, except in so far as it parallels
the work of my own office. For in
stance, the governor's office is given
$75,00( for the law enforcement in
1920 although the statements of that
'lice show that less than $20,000 ras
used in 1919 and it is a well known
fact that the federal government
will assist in law enforcement in this
State in 1920. I am assuming however,
that the Governor is right in asking
for this large amount of money for
his office. He knows the requirements
and his is the responsibility. But if
he needs that large sum for the en
forcement of a liquor law, the vio
lations of which affect only a few
I hundred persons, why should this (e
partment be denied sufficient funds for
- the enforcement of several protective
to laws committed to it, laws that affect
fully 75 per cent of our people.
e "The commissioner does not do me
the justice to state that I did not
participate in the recommendations
for the Governor's office, nor does he
state that the $75,000 is for the en
fforcement of al flaws of the State,
incltding the game and fish laws. Prac
it tically $56,000 was spent (luring the
past year in the enforcement of th''
* fish and game laws. lie is also in
error in stating that less than $20.000

- Alany who suffer from backache and

able, fret ful and nervous. Not only
does constant backache "get on the
nerves," but bad kidneys fail to eli
minate -ill the uric acid from the sys

keeping one "onl edge," and causing
rheumatic, neuralgic pains. When
