The |>enitervtiary board and the state of South iCarolinA is faced with the problem (||>f not only , finding room in the cell block* of tlte prisoners but also providing work for the inmates. "Idie hands caune trouble," is the motto of the penitentiary officers, but they huve insufficient jobs to give each prisoner work to keep him busy. Jnnuary 1, 1980, the penitentiary and the two farms in Kershaw ami Sumter counties had a total of 087 prisoners. In the nine months following, h gajp of 458 was made while a loss of 871 was being suffered, leaving a total of 700 In the institution at the end of tive fiscal year, Soptemher 80, 1080. The c'hhrge of murder sent more prisoners to the penitentiary than any otlier single charge, the report of .J. Olin Sunders, captain of the guard, shows. One hundred and l'orty-seven murderers are at the penitentiary I while OH prisoners are serving terms j for manslaughter.

Two counties- 4 >arlington and Kershaw have only one prisoner each in the institution. White men are more numerous than any other classification by sex and color, with 895 to 817 Negro men, 47 Negro women and 10 white women.

In one year there was ; m>t a single death among the protected children, while on the other hand there wore 1.805 cases and 222 death* among the children who had not been immunized. Tax authorities of Pamlico county, N. ('., this week had the case of 150 citizens who had failed to )>ay poll tax to deal with. The penalty for non-payment was $50 or thirty day-. Many of the 150 hadn't the wherewithal to pay and so were ready to do the tinve. Then came another perplexing question, how were they to be fed? The county's jail funds are low and the expense of feeding the delinquents would be great. Tbe matter was soNed for the time being by continuing the case against the nonpaying citizens.
