Morris, Jr., of Pickents .stressed the need for a new school for the mentally re tarded Senator Morris, chairman of t h e governor’s Mental Health Committee, said the recommen dation for the school, now before the General Assembly, is the most important one before that body presently. The committee has suggested that such a school was needed to provide relief at Whitten Village at Clinton where a waiting list of 400 to 500 exists. The senator said the new school would be an adjunct to Whitten Village. He said the committee feels the school should be in the lower part of the state, probably Char leston. Quoting Dr. William C. Mennin- ger, director of the Menninger Foundation who addressed the Assembly recently, Senator Mor is said mental illness had the highest recovery rate if the pa tient is given an opportunity to get well. Senator Morris urged, “We cannot afford not to afford it. This is a basic necessity of state government.” He said as a result of the com mittee’s work, fees paid to Whit ten Village and the State Hospital at Columbia amounted to some $400,000 per year now go to these institutions for capital improve ment.

The information recorded indicates the kinds of soils: UHr properties, such as behavior, productivity and re sponse to management; slope or gradients; losses of sdil by ero sion; stoniness, silt accumula tion; evidence of poor drainage; location of natural drains; rock outcrops, lakes, ponds, roads, and railroads, power lines and buildings. ■ ' — FOUR BIG ADVANTAGES In financing your next car here ^ Low Cost )/ Fast Service \/ Fair Dealing }/ Friendly People and you do not need to be a customer M.
