THURSDAY, JANUARY

ertl Assembly of South Carolina con-
vened Tuesday at neon at the State
House in Columbia.
The session promises to be a busy
•one, though predictions are made that
It will not be long drawn out. Little
time was lost in preliminaries, as the
same organization in effect last year
is operative this year, the membership
of the two houses being practically
the same as that of last. Actual work
began on the opening day and when
the members assembled they found
on their desks calendars carrying bills
wnd resolutions brought over from
1929.
Workmen’s Compensation.
Among the matters of importance
which will be brought before the gen*
oral assembly is a workmen’s compen-
sation bill by Senator R. M. Jefferies
of Colleton.
Extension of the State’s program of
exploitation of it 8 natural resources
will likely attract considerable atten
tion, as will a system of State high
way control.
The State’s financial situation will
likely receive much attention. The
State is faced with a deficit of $3,848,-
000, according to A. Beattie, comp
troller general, and this matter will
evoke considerable debate.
Bills to be introduced include a tax
courts.
The law requires now that each
applicant for tnotor vehicle license?
pay a penalty of fifty cents and this
amount should be’included in each re
mittance. The motor vehicle owners
of the State are urgently requested to
take notice of this final warning and
secure their 1930 licenses on or before

“Accordingly, on the morning of
January 16, 1930, I have authorized
and instructed Mr. M. V. Sutherland,
Director of the Motor Vehicle Divis
ion, to begin a rigid campaign of law
enforcement against all persons and
films who are found to be operating
motor vehicles without 1930 licenses.
Twenty license inspectors vfill be dis
tributed and stationed so that, with
the assured assistance and co-opera
tion of certain city and county police
officers, the State will be covered with
a drag-net. Our inspectors will ban
