Columbia. — The standard of living for low income groups in South Carolina has risen steadily since the turn of the century and has shown a notable increase in the last t^en years, according to a study by a University of South Carolina economist. Writing on “Rural-Urban Pop ulation Changes” in the June is sue of the University Business and Economic Review, Dr. Rob ert W. Patterson states that the shift of population from agricul tural to non-agricultural indus tries “has tended to improve levies of living of persons on the lower portion of the income scale." ‘There is no question that the influence of poverty and under employment upon a large seg ment of the people of South Carolina has been appreciably reduced during the decade of 1940-50," Dr. Patterson says. “It was this decade when the re quirements of war and post war development provided eco nomic opportunities never be fore available to most of the peo ple of the state." Dr. Patterson predicts that the opportunities for economic and social change which have taken place in recent years have creat ed an atmosphere in which “con tinued economic growth may be expected to take place.” Although the rural population in South Carolina will probably remain more than 50 per cent f&r the next ten years, it is declin ing at a rate of 6.6 per cent, which is faster than the rate for the Southeast, or the United States as a whole. In 1850 95 per cent of the state’s popula tion was rural. A hundred years later those figures had dropped to 63 per cent. Between 1790, the year of the first census, and 1950, the rural population of South Carolina in creased 5 times compared with 11 times for the Southeast, and 13 times for the' United States. Urban population for the same period increased 46 times in South Carolina, 470 times in the Southeast, and 480 times in the United States. The recent incrensed move ment toward the cities in South Carolina is in response to better employment opportunities. The population trend in rural areas of South Carolina between 1900 and 190 shows an increase for Florence county of 119 per cent; Horry, 116 per cent; Spar tanburg, 82 per cent; and Pick ens, 74 per cent; and decrease for Fairfield, 47 per cent; Edge- field, 45 per cent; Abbeville, 43 per cent; and Marion 39 per cent last week at Hays hospital. Mrs. J. V. Edwards was a pa tient at Blalock clinic several days last week suffering a broken arm injury- Guynita Lanford, daugtter of Mr. and Mrs. Freeman Lanford, underwent an operation Tuesday at Hays hospital.

P. ADAIR, Manacer College Foundation Joins National Support Effort Greenville, June 14. — The South Carolina Foundation of Independent Colleges, Inc., re cently opening its headquarters in Greenville, is joining 35 other state groups in a national effort jo enlist corporate support for the non-tax supported colleges. Although there is no formal connection between the state as sociations, they are seeking to provide a large share of the $250 million dollars required an nually to expand and strengthen our country’s private system of higher education. Dr. Wright Spears, president of Columbia college, is chair man of the South Carolina Foun dation. The ” member colleges are the state’s nine accrredited non-tax supported four-year col leges: Coker, Columbia, Con verse, Erokine, Furman, Lime stone, Newberry, Presbyterian, and Wofford. Other officers of the founda tion are Dr. J. A. Eastwood, Limestone College* vice-chair man; Dr. John L .Plyler, Fur man University, secretary, and Dr. F. P. Gaines, Wofford, treas urer. The foundation is governed by a board of trustees including the presidents of each member college and the following lay members: Gov. James F. Byrnes, B. M. Edwards of Columbia, Hugh C. Lane of Charleston, Charles E. Daniel of Greenville, Walter S. Montgomery of Spar tanburg; Roger C. Peace of Greenville, James C. Self of Greenwood, ancj Samuel Swint of GraniteviMe. < i Although the state associations are just beginning operations in many states, approximately 1,000 corporations made contributions in 1953 totaling over one mil lion dollars. Dr. Frank Sparks, president ol Wabash College in Indiana, is credited with originating the idea of incorporating the inde pendent colleges into a “com munity chest type group. A for mer businessman, Dr, Sparks de veloped the Indiana Association of Colleges in 1948 after discus sions with business friends. In South Carolina the founda tion was incorporated in 1953 and began active operation in March, 1954, when a central of fice was established in Green ville. J. Lacy McLean is execu tive director, i, gifts for distribution to member The foundation will receive colleges 50 per cent divided equally among the nine colleges, 60 per cent distributed on the basis of enrollment with the larger colleges receiving the larger share. Gifts designated by a corporation for one or more institutions will be transmitted directly to the colleges so named.
