DISPATCHES FROM COLUMBIA Doing* and Happenings That Mark - the Progress of South Carolina Peo. pIe, Gathered Around the State Capitol. Columbia. Gov. Manning approved the act of the general assembly outlawing the Southearstern Underwriters' associa tion from South Carolina. The gover, nor also approved the insurance brokers' act, which requires an annu al license of $25. No steps have been taken by South Carollna authorities to combat action which may come from the announce ment of 67 of fire insurance companies that they would withdraw from the South Carolina field as a result of Governor Manning's approval of the so-called "brokerage" and anti-com pact insurance bills. The 67 Insurance companies organ ized outside the state are members of the Southerastern Underwriters' Association, and will be controlled, it was said, by action of their organiza tion. The association has closed its local offices and withdrawn jurisdic tion over the South Carolina business of its members. Big companies, it was said here by their agents, will cancel all policies on South Carolina risks. There are about 95 fire insur ance companies doing business in this state and it was indicated that those outside the Underwriters' Association might also withdraw. The "anti-compact" law, effective March 22, prohibits the organization of fire insurince companies to main tain uniform charges of- rates in the state. It was to this law that chef objection from the companies was made at a hearing before the Gover nor signed the bill. The "brokerage" law which became effective immediately that it was sign. ed, imposes an annual licenae fee of $26 upon agents of each company they represent, and taxes agents four pei cent on all premiums paid into them. James A. Cathcart, president of thE South Carolina Association of Fir Underwriters, a state organization said not to be connected with the .Southeastern Underwriters' Associa tion, stated that their agents were "somewhat in the Cark" as to thE course their companies would follow Cathcart added -that it was his owr opinion that withdrawal of a large number of companies would work a hardship upon small instirers; as he believed the big companies of his as. sociation would handle only larger lines in South Carolina, and do this business through brokers. Governor Manning after signing the anti-compact bill issued a statement in which he said: "The general assembly," said the governor, "enacted what is known as the Laney-Odom bill, prohibiting the for'mation -of organizations or com pacts of fire insurance.- comipanies to fix. and control rates. This comes to me for my approval or disapproval. After a full hearitig, at which writ ten and oral arguments wer-e present ad for and against the bill. I am 'con viniced that it is my duty to approve and sign it. "The argumen~ts against the bill1 do not, in my opin-ton, furnish adequate reasons for my withholding my signa tue. There in evidently something wrong in reference to the fira insur ance rates charged in this state. This bill is an effort to give competition ii rates. I believe I am acting In the interest of the people of Southt Caro. hina in approving this act." MannIng Upholds Wilson's PolIcy. Interpreting the public sentiment 1:1 this state in regard to President Wil son's letter to Congressman Pou 1:1 the present crisis in Washington, Gov. Mannigg sent the following tel egram to the U 'ted Press in reply tc their query: "Your telegram. South Caroline sentiment is practically unanimous it: support of President Wilson's peel Ition. Our people are behind him. WE demand that congress shall give thE president a vote of confidence and: leave it to him~ to deal with foreig, affairs. WVe are confidant that con grcss will see its duty as loyal Amern cans and will uphold the president ir protecting the interests and huonor o America." Red Cross Seal Sales Was Larger. The final report of the Red Crosi seal commission of South Carolina oi the year's campaign for selling the Christmas seals in the fight agains tuberculosis has been made public The results, though not as large a was hoped for, are a gt'atifying iv provement over last year's sales. A: together 289,000 sales were sold i1 South Carolina during December. O the $2,890 'thus rpalized, only 10 pa cen;. $249, goea tdhe American Ie< Crr. The riuidifderls usedVln th Seven Counties Organizing. The organization of the he demonstration work for 1916 has jts been completed and all agents have been appointed for the year. There" is an enrollment of 31 counties and 32 agents, Darlington county having two agents. Last year the enroll ment was only 24, showing an increase of seven new counties this year. The authorities are very much pleased with the corps of agents at work and the prospects are that this will be the most successful year in the 'history of the work. The splen did training given to the agonts dur ing their short course at Winthrop College in January is proving of great benefit to them.

Miss Parrott is being sent there by Winthrop College and the federal de partment of agriculture to help the state agent of that state and to ob serve the work which is being done there. Considers Asylum Repairs. "I have no announcement to make for the present," said Gov. Manning, when he returned from New York, where he went on official business in connection with the refunding of the state debt, amounting to approximate. ly $5,000,000, when asked what course will be pursued relative to the State Hospital for Insane. The item provid ing an appropriation of $100,000 to carry on the repair work was left out of the general appropriation bill. The governor will give the matter serious consideration and will have some statement to make in a few days. To Call In Brown Consul@. A resolution was passed at a meet ing of the sinking fund commission to call in the brown consul bonds of 4 12 per cent, April 1, when new -ones will be issued to take their place. This step follows the recent action of the commission in authorizing the is suance of bonds for the refunding of approximately $4,800,000 in istate bonds outstanding. 'For the first time, acting under the statute of 1912, the legislature at its recent session appr-opriated $25,000 as an accumula tive sinking fund for the retiring of the neW issue of bonds. fManning Approves .Liquor Acts.
