O’Daniel.« tf Colpinbia, Dec. 8. — After lengthy discussion. Governor Richards and Julian H. Scarborough, state treasur er, today accepted the bid of the Peo ples State Bank of ^uth Carolina and others for $10,000,000 highway bonds. The gixiup offered to buy the bonds at a premium of $181,990; they carry 4 3-4 per cent. This w’ould mean an interest rate of about 4.58 per cent. . , ■ FeuF "bids were made, two l y one group- Three of them offered to buy the certificates at 4 3-4 per cent, with varying premiums and the fourth of fered to take half the amount at 4 1-2 per cent, with no premium, and to re ceive a 90-day option on the remain der. Succes.sful bidders, in • addition to the Peoples Bank, the Guaranty Trust company of New York, Harris Forbes and company, Lehman Brochers, Con tinental Illinois Eldredge company and a.ssociates. Because- of the condition existing in the bond market at pre.sent, causing the rale on new bond is.sues to rise, state officials discussed for a time the advisability of selling no bonds at this tim^ but offering short term paper for sale; shdrt term notes, it was pointetcl out, are carrying a very low rate of interest at this time, lowed'to be sold in one year under The! $65,000,000 hiirhway bond act. The ‘first $10,000,000 sold during the; spring carried an interest rate of 4.31 per cent. Governor Richards issued the fol lowing statement after the sale: “The state treasurer and I believe that the bid submitted to us today fiir the purchase of the new issue of $10,000,000 highway bonds is very j good. State highway officials are ofj the same opinion. The. price offered j by the best bidder for these bonds is! equivalent to an interest rate of about 4.58 per cent per annum. In submit-1 ting estimates to the highway bond act, the highway commission thought i that the state would have to pay an j average of 4 1-2 per cent per annum | for highway construction bonds. The rate of 4.58 per cent is sut|8tantially: less than the average interest rate i now being paid on county and high- way district ^reimbursement bonds. .| “At the present time there are ap-i projrimately 10,000 people employed in carrying out the highway depart ment construction program, and thi^ sale not only assures the furtherance i of the construction program, but also the continued employment of this large number of our own people.” The Contracts Columbia, Dec. 8.— A few hours af ter the state sold $10,000,000 worth of highway bonds today Ben M. Saw yer, chief highway commissioner, an nounced that bids will be received by the highway department December 30 for highway construction and bridge work to cost more than $5,000,000. The letting wiH include 16 paving project.", covering 194.145 miles at an estimated cost of nearly $5,000,000; nine bridge projects to cost about $300,000, and one small grading job.
