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
