Sawyer Wins Out Over Governor ' Columbia, Feb. 29.?The South {Carolina supremo court declared IU ii ! M Sawyer invented with full control of ihe state highway departinent as j chief commissioner today and ordered I $ 1.11 n,920 in highway funds placed at i hiu disposal. The five Justices signed a per cu riant order holding that notice of an appeal by Governor Olin John;: tun from a circuit court order reinstating Sfiwyef, his inveterate political enemy, did not prevent the chief commissioner from resuming office. , it authorized Comptroller General A. J. Seattle and State Treasurer K P. Miller to honor Huwyor's voucher for $280,000 to pay highway department salaries through April 15; $230, 920 to meet reimbursement bond oh ligantions; and $000,000 in federal road aid funds held in the state treasury as a trust fund for construction. Attorney General John M. Ijaniel filed a petition for the release of the funds yesterday Sawyer's name. The court considered it at chambers Land handed down its decision early | this afternoon. The court order Bet forth that "the j court holds that notice of appeal does not act us a supersedeas of Judge Bellinger's decree. The writ of prohibition is nothing more or less in effect than an injunction." Sawyer had obtained an order from Judge G. Duncan Bellinger of Columbia reinstating him and prohibiting Johnston from seeking to remove him on misconduct charges on the grounds that lie could be legally removed only by the state highway coinmission, which the governor has ousted. The governor contended that Suwyer lacked authority to resume his office after terms of a temporary highway bourd expired February 20, but _lho chief commissioner walked in and tookTharge upon the advice of his lawyers, who did not participate in the case today. The court authorized the payment of funds in two orders, one providing for the $280,000 for salaries and $230,92') for obligations, and the other pertaining to tiie $tJuO,U(iO in federal highway funds. State highway officials said that all employes whose pay came due today were being given warrants for their I salaries on the comptroller general's office. These were being delivered in person or mailed. ... H Citing the necessity tor some control of the highway department, the justices said "it was the purpose of the law governing the state highway department that the department should function." They termed allegations of Sawyer that he was entitled to take charge "true," and continued:. "It is therefore ordered that vouchers drawn and signed by the chief highway commissioner or by any bonded officer designated by him in accordance with law be honored, and lhat the comptroller general issue his warrants therefor and that the state treasurer pay same when properly presented for payment." The court held that "all the rights of the parties under the appeal from Judge Bellinger's decree are fully preserved and protected." It said they "are in no way prejudiced or prejudged, as the order covers and is intended to cover only such matters as are presented to us by the petition and which arc necessary and proper for the court now to decide." 720-Pound Woman Greensboro had a visitor a few days ago.
