Free Conference Yet To Rep<K*t. Columbia, April 13.—South Caro lina legislators began thinking about! good campaign speeches today be cause many of them freely predicted to reporters that the 83rd general as- j sembly was rounding the last curve of the current session. The talk gained such headway that during this, the 14th, week of the session, several legislators became jittery and dropF>ed skeletonized county supply bills in the hopper.

They did not want sine die adjourn ment to catch them with no supply! bill for their qpunty’s operation, j The end of the session, as usual, ' was considered dependent - upon the I house and senate agreement on the| state appropriation bill. The free I -eoirferehce-committee gave no defi nite assurance that the report would be out next week, but one conferee. Rep. Harry Hughs of Oconee, said “I hope so.” Even then he qualified that safe statement by adding, “I make no prediction.” Once the rep>ort wins legislative approval and is signed by the gov-' ernor, legislators seldom do anything but sing away the time until the few remaining necessary steps are taken to permit the last gavel to fall.-^ Outside the secret walls in which the conferees have closeted them selves for several weeks, lawmakers this week forecast adjournment would likely come with two weeks. Few county supply bills remained were Thanks THE CHRONICLE has re ceived during the week' a num ber of comments and expres sions of approval of the new type face in. which the paper appeared last week and will continue to be published.
