The worthy Columbia,' Feb. 1. — Despite thou- sandf^ of new jobs furnished by the eWA, PWA and in private industry, more than 150l000 persons in South Carolina were still looking for work. T. K. Johnstone, state manager, an nounced that at the end of last week 154,493 persons in thp state were on the rolls of the national re-employ ment service seeking jobs. This was in the face of the fact that since the service began function ing in the state last .August 15 it has, through its forty-six county offices,| Information in hand led Chairman S. M. Ward of the crtmmitlee to an nounce a special supplemental 1933- 34 appropriation bill would be neces sary to take care of the deficiencies. Apparently, how'ever, the problem w’ill be simplified by the fact that fi.s- cal year revenue will sufficiently ex-i ceed earlier estimates to cover the deficits. J. M. Smith, state auditor, i said he felt sure there would be j enough money to meet all need.s and, still leave “possibly a small surplus.’^ t The big question, though, w’as how! members of the legislature, particu larly lihe “economy conscioUfS” repre-: sentatives, would take the appeal.*^ for [ more money to round out the current! year. j There probably will be considerable j argument over the question, espt>cial- , ly if enough additional pleas for “defi- t, cit” appropriations come in to swell the total greatly. The deficiencies in part were at tributed to rising costs under the na tional recovei-y prt»gram. which, through its favorable effect uinm busi- ^ ness, was said to have swelled stat*‘' revenues sufficiemly to balance the, books. A f7l>7000 deficit at the slate hos pital particularly was, attributed to | increased costs of commodities and j other supplies. The same factor was! .said to have entered- into a request j from Clemson colU*ge for $53,668 more 1 money for 1934. j An estimated $119,000 deficit in state aid/ school funds, however, was! explaiilMd largely from the fact ~li i larger number bf teachers were re- ^ quired this year than had been esti- ' mated. Another sizeable figure was j $•10,000 estimated to be needed to pay i for printing for the present legisla-! ttw '■ — ■ ' ' ——-j The legislators last year,, although ! appropriating for the fiscal period ending next June 30, failed to provide for this session’s printing expenses. Other deficit items rejiorted includ ed, in approximate figures: $12,500 for the board of bank control, $5,970 for the treasurer’s office, $4,000 for j the legislative department, $2,000 for the department of education, $1,500 for the railroad commission, and a small amount for the judiciary. There wa.** a growing impression to day that the same general business pick-up that promise*! to pile in>p em>ugh extra state revenue to cover p any current deficit would make pos- y .sihle. slightly nioi-e liberal appropri- " ations fot the new fiscal year. 1931- ■ 1935.
