Chamber and Town Mayor File
Protests With Express Company.
MANY LETTERS PASS
REGARDiNG THE MATTER
Oomnany Places Economy as
Main R eason for Proposing
Consolidation.
As a result of n protest mado to
the American Kr.ilway Express Com- j
pany by the Mayor of Conway ami
f.ho flnnwnv (?/' (1i>imnf>rr'i'> !
the company has given assurance that
there will ho no consolidation of the
express and railroad office? for the
immediate present, nor until representatives
of the town have had an
opportunity to state their case to officials
of the company. On October
21 the Chamber of Commerce addressed
the following letter to Mr.
R. H. May, superintendent of the
American IJ-i'w.'-- F\pyos> Company
with offices at Wilmington:
"It has been called to my attention
that the express company is contcmplatin.tr
the consolidation of its offices
with the A*'antic Coast I ino
Company, abandoning its present office
and removing the same to the
rear of the'railroad station. It may
be that this information is not authentic
but there is a well-founded
rumor here to th.at effect.
"The business men of Conway and
all patrons of the express service and
the railroad service would view such
a move with the utmost dissatisfaction.
At present the express service
here is of such a rhnraeter as to
command the general favor of the
public. While the railroad employes
are very courteous and efficient, their
quarters arc cramped and inadequate
to meet the need ; of the local situation
both as to nassomrer and freight
service. To con'-o^r^'to t'-ese tvi
branches of the public service would
result in a lessening of the efficiency
and would bo a st^n backward to
conditions which existed ion years a pro
despite the steady "vowth in business
of the town duri^e- tlv\t period.
"We hope that this proposed change
will not be attempted. While the relationship
between the pu'? ic -\n?> the
express company ha; nVnys be^n
pleasant 1 M,v si.re *? 1 t * ho u'li
would sit i '1N
energetically the adort'on oi' t' ,
plan."
In reply to the above letter the
Chamber of Commerce is in receipt of
the following from Mr. May:
"This is to acknowledge receipt of
your letter of the 2lst instant with
regard to the -consolidation of the express
nnrl railroad business at Conway,
S. C.
"Because of the necessity for greater
economy in the cost of operating
our business we have under consideration
the proposition of making1 such
an arrangement.
"Our earnings, due to the general
business depression obtaining during
the last several months, hnvc made
it neces virv that every possible eeonomv
be brought about.
"The consolidation at Conway ha?
not yet been definitely determined
and before final action is taken I will
either cnll to see v >u personally witli
regard to the matter or send a competent
representative. You may rest
assured that if the consolidation i..
made the service which will be renjgrnr

HOB HORRY HERALD, CONWAl
LOWER PEE DEE BRIDGE.
Meeting of the Commissioners for i
Horry-Georgetown Bridge.
The first meeting of the com- ]
mittees from Horry and Georgetown 1
counties relative to the construction
of a bridge near Port Harrelson was I
held last Thursday at Yah Hanah 1
Ferry. The Horry committee, com- 1
posed of 1). V. Richardson, I) A.! '<
! Spivey and W. L. Richadson, were
a'1 present. The Georgetown com-:
mitteo, consisting of Messrs. II. \\\ * I
Fr.aser, Olin Sawyer and Jos. Ki-j
?ve?'?> likewise present.
T ." or nidation was perfected by :
.b > clocti:iM of 1). A. Spivev, chair- ! i
H. \V. Fraser, vice chairman, :
and M. A. Wright, secretary.
The commissioners visited and in- !
spected the proposed landings oi\:
each side of the rive;\ as outlined by
a preliminary survey. This calls';
for a point below the mouth of Lit .

end of Hull Creek.

is reported that the people of
Georgetown ure very much enthused

ror?dy to ioin hands with the Horry
people and pay their share in con
necting these sister counties.
A. Spivey. the newly elected
chairman of the joint commission,
was seen by a reporter for this paper
and ?vas asked for a statement
as to the proposed plans relative to
the bridge project mentioned.
4M,Tel! it .may be a little too early
for me to uive you any definite or
concrete plans," said he. "I have
"M in he' 1 this movement,
and have not had time to
j j ;ve u much n ature thought. In a
"oror:'1 wav I am convinced that
! this project if successfully consum- "
ated wouitl mean much for Horry. 1
'eel that now is the time to push it
to completion. The Government i

financing is the most vital point. I
will talc? money to burnt ii. rl"! i o! ]'.
m ' < fo o us will ho to focun
os?' finds in a manner thru will
of lea <t burden to our tax payers.
Tn this ,of course, 1 will have no
voice. It will he determined by the
delegations in the legislature from '
Horry and Georgetown.
"If the structure he built accord
ing to plans and specifications of
the Government, Uncle Sain will'pa.,
one-half the cost, Georgetown will
pay one-half the balance, leaving
Horry to foot the hill of one-fourth
thn toal cost. Based on $200,000 cost,
Horry's part would be only $50,000.
"The constitutional limit for Horry's
bonded indebtedness will permit
of $100,000 more bonds for roads and
bridges, as I calculate.
"Now, while I am talking about
bridges, permit me to say that another
structure should span the Waccamaw
River. I refer to the proposed
one at or near Star/ Bluff. The
necessity 'or this bridge will permit
of no contradiction. We all know
that it should be built. We just as
well admit that the Loris sect on,
Simpson Creek and Little River
Township did not receive their equit
; able share in the distribution of the
that

funds derived from the Buck bond
bill and the Government funds. . It
is not too late to correct this apparent
injustice. Those people should
have the bridge and a road completed
from Loris across to Cherry
Grove section.
"I am also convinced that the
bridge near Nichols needs to be rebuilt,
and probably other smallo
bridges in the county need repairs
sadly.
"Speaking personally, 1 would like
to see all these bridge projects com- !
bined into one bond issue of $100,000.
My opinion is that this amov.i I \vi?

For some time the easiness men of
this section of South Carolina have
seen and felt the nod of an organization
of the growers in order to control
the placing of the product on the
market. In other tobacco growing
sections of the country the growers
are organized and they do not allow
the markets to open until they arc
ready to sell. They are prepared to *
great extent to keep the tobacco off
the market if conditions are not jus:
right. It is this that must be done
hero if the farmers would succed ir
making a fair profit from their crops.
It is this that the bankers of group
six will help in putting over.
The Florence Times in its issue of
last Friday says of this meetinpv
"Group six of the South Carolina
Bankers' Association, meeting hove
unanimously indorsed .and approxed
of plans for organizing the tobacco
rowers of the state into a co-operative
marketing association. This
group comprises practically the entire
tobacco belt of South Carolina; an i
for this meeting bankers from the
tobacco counties outside of the belt
were invited and well represented.
Consequently the action of the meeting
represents the bankers of the tobacco
belt as fully as it does the group.
