It’s a great pity when two very im portant departments of the State gov ernment aVe at loggerheads. We have particular reference to the row be tween Governor J'hnston and the State highway department over the job of Ben Sawyer, chief highway commis sioner. We are not going into the merits of the feud between the chief executive and the chief highway com missioner, but it would be a matter for regret if it were allowed to cost South Carolina several millions of dol lars worth of highway consti-uction.

Johnston refused today to take action to further a $10,650,000 load! construction program as long as Sawyer remained chief highway com missioner.

Why not invoke the Wagner labor disputes law to settle the controversy between the govern, r’s office and the State highway commission over Ben Sawyer’s job ? ‘About The Post. Under the above caption, the New berry Herald and News makes the fol lowing reply to a recent editorial in The People-Sentinel: “We are quite willing to do as the esteemed Barnwell People-Sentinel suggests and give the Roosevelt ad ministration credit “for at least a few worthwhile accomplishments,” but we mre not at all sure that these benefits are commensurate with the cost in money and the baneful effect on the country. The spending of billions is bound to prove helpful for a time. \ “The Barnwell paper implies that we are somewhat dense In not discov ering over a period of years that the Saturday Evening Post is a Republi can sheet,It peinta out that in re cent months many of the Post’s arti cles andl editorials have been critical of the New Deal, and cites the series in which an attempt was made to sad dle blame for the banking crisis on the president. The writer's hypothesis was that by silence between the time of his election and inauguration Mr. Roosevelt, produced such a state of panic the banks were forced to close. “It is unsafe to assume, we think, that because a paper takes a critical attitude toward the New Deal it is pro-Republican. Considter the Hearst papers, and right here in South Caro lina we have a staunch Democratic daily that attacks the New Deal as un relentingly as does the New York Herald-Tribune. There isn’t a Re publican sheet in South Carolina, but none of them is a consistent defen der of the New Deal. We also wish to remind Editor Davies that not many mouths go The Post lambasted old Hue Republicans for their folly and The Poet is a conservative and for that reason there perry winkle was located. the mayor reported that he had saw 3 strange wimmen hanging around tfiwn in a black sedan for the past 2 <iay s and it is rumored tha they kidi- napped mr. winkle and carried him away, no ransom note has benn re ceived, and it mought not be a case of kidnipping, as she has no monney to pay out on him.

Sawyer apparently has drawn no pay since June 30. but continues to exercise the authority of chief com missioner under the statutes. • “I told members of the highway commission that I wanted the status of Ben Sawyer definitely determined in view of the veto of his salary,” Johnston said. “I don’t think it would be treating the people of South Carclina fairly to dump the expenditure of $10,650,000 into Sawyer’s hands after his posi tion with the highway department has been made a campaign issue.” Hearon and Commissioners E. T. Heyward, of Charleston, and W. A. Stilley, Jr., of Conway, called at the governor’s office this morning for a conference with him. Stilley, whom the governor appointed to the board, saw Johnston briefly. The governed explained that the commission wished him to approve the issuance of $2.560.000 in highway be postponed until a later date. ADVERTISE in The People-Sentinel.
