ercises the past week at The

T.D.Pigg, Jr., Named
Civil Defense Head
Tommy D. Pigg, Jr., Laurens
grocer, has been appointed full
time Civil Defense Director of
Laurens County. He will assume
his duties July 1.
The announcement was made
last week from the South Caro
lina Civil Defense office by Col.
C. F. Colyer, operations officer.
He said the appointment was
made following the recommenda
tion of the majority of the Laur
ens County Delegation and May
ors of the incorporated munici
palities of Laurens County.
The total appropriation for the
office will be $8,000, half of
which will be paid by the county
and the other half by the federal
government on a “matching fund
basiW’
Laurens County Senator King
Dixon said the salary for the di
rector will be $4,000; that M0
would be for clerical; $600 for
trawl; and $780 for other items
such as office equipment.
Senator Dixon said the appoint
ment had been confirmed by let
ter from Charles B. Culbertson,
director of Civil Defense for
South Carolina.
The Senator further said that
$1,000 for ptvil Defense in the
county was already In the appro
priation and the remaining $$,-
000 needed for the county’s por
tion would come from the con
tingent fund.
CARD OF THANKS
The family of Mrs. Vera Stew
art wishes to thank their friends
and everyone for the many klng-
nesses shown them daring
illness and at the time of her
death. The floral offerings, cards,
the food and other expressions of
sympathy were deeply appreciat
ed.
Total $207,520.63
To solve this problem, the leg
islative delegation authorized a
bqnd issue of $190,000.00 provided
the people of Laurens County vote
Tor it, yet at the same time they
refused to pass a balanced appro
priation bill for Laurens Coun
ty. By not passing an appropri
ation bill, the county by law auto
matically operates on the prior
year’s appropriations for the fis
cal year ending June 30, 1962.
The County Treasurer estimated
that for the current fiscal year
ending June 30, 1961, there will
be an operating defleit of at least
$55,000.00 and in this fiscal year
the County has received its part
of the State income taxes when
the State was collecting two
years' State income tax in one
year. This .will be a windfall of
some $40,000.00 for the current
fiscal year, but none of this will
be received in the fiscal year,
June 30. 1962. If the legislative
delegation spends the entire ap
propriations, there will be anoth
er operating deficit for the year
June 30, 1962 of approximately
$100,000.00 and at this time we
could be faced with another bond
issue.
Laurens County has been ope
rating at a deficit for a number
of years and if current appropri
ations are to be balanced, addi
tional revenue will have to be pro
vided through the only source
additional revenues may be ob
tained, that is the raising of
property taxes. The longer the
legislative delegation refuses to
face this issue, the worse it will
be and the higher taxes will have
to be raised.
I did not oppose the issuing of
bonds to cover past mistakes,
provided efforts were made to
correct the situation for the fu
ture, but since no effort was
made. I am opposed to the con
tinuous issuing of bonds to pay
for current operations.
Respectfully submitted,
