Washington, July 9.-The refusal of Governor Blease to permit North Carolina and Georgia militia troops to pass through South' Carolina en route to the military encampment at Augusta, has not been the basis of representations to the war depart ment and in the opinion of officials will not be. Although tho state troops will go to the encampment on invitation of the war department, they have no federal status and officials said today the de partment had nor authority to order their transportation through ' South Carolina. It was pointed out that the militia of one elate may.not enter- another state armed except, on permission from tho governor, but tho suggestion was offered that the order of the South Carolina governor might be cir cumvented by the militiamen travel ing through tho state, as- individual passengers, unarmed.

Kinard, the ' new president, -and declared his be- 1 lief that Anderson college has a great futuro. H. S. Ligon, chairman of the local ! board of trustees, referred to his ex-. perlcnce as a "printer's devil," or ap- j prentice tn a printing office, and grew ; quite eloquent in telling of the need for educational institutions of high standards. He urged that every state' college and every other college be, frank In the statements in their cata- ! logue, and declared with earnestness that Anderson college; would always try to live up U? ita declarations in j itu catalogue,. He spoke of the pow- ? er of the press to aid in the advance ment of the cause of education. Jas! L. Sims of/ Arangeburg, United i States marshal for this state and t treasurer of the press association, de- j dared his firm conviction that this i state needs n compulsory attendance law to require the parents to give ! thcir'childrcn a chance.

He wishes to see it continued to Edge field so that the girls from down that way may come to Anderson col lege.
