Assembly Seosion.
Adjournment Thia Week?
Columbia, May 12.—With the adop
tion by the house of the free confer
ence report on the social security bill
and the introduction last night of the
free conference report on the general
appropriation measure, sine die ad
journment this week loomed as a
strong possibility.
Columbia, May 6.—A deadlock be
tween house and senate free conferees
on the appropriation bill appeared in
open and the house .picked flaws in
the free conference report on Social
Security as the 17th week of the gen
eral assembly came to an ineffectual
close.
Possibility of sine die adjournment
dwindled into the indeterminate future
as these two pivotal measures snag
ged on complications.
Early in the week both houses and
senate conferees on the money bill
reported to their respective houses
that the situation looked black with
apparently no chance of agreement.
The conferees, they said, could
not agree on the question of exten
sion of the State-aid school term
from seven to eight months, in
creased teachers’ salaries on either a
flat or graduated scale or new revenue.
All disclaimed credit for the delay.
The free conference report on So
cial Security, carrying an annual
State appropriation of $1,519,990 and
providing—with federal and county
contributions—almost $34)00,000 for
relief, sped easily through the senate,
where members approved it unani
mously after a brief examination.
House's Side.
Richland, and Wheeler, of Dillon, a
group of reproaantattroa prepared to
fight for the alteration when debate
is returned Tuesday.
Gov. Olin D. Johnston's veto of a
bill which its author said was aimed
at eliminating the ‘'numbers racket"
and the senate’s subsequent overrid
ing of the veto added tense momenta
to the week’s activities.
The bill, which would raise the
specified gambling from a misdemean
or to a felony with manditory impris
onment, was vetoed ,by the governor
because of “ambiguity."
The measure, he said, was so far-
reaching as to make persons engaged
in everyday activities liable for prose
cutigp.
Brown Answers.
In the house, however, members
cried out against a provision which
would give the senators the whip-
hand in appointment of county ad
ministrative boards.
The senators, dissatisfied house
members said, should take responsi
bility of recommending the county
groups outright or share it equally
with the house members on the delega
tions.
Led by Representatives Adams, of
Senator Edgar Brown, of Barnwell,
author of the bill, answered with a
scathing attack on the governor, term
ing his veto “gross stupidity." The
senate overrode the veto 33 to 0.
Galled by the attack, Johnston, re
turned to the fray to “challenge you
or anyone else to prove that I have
ever been guilty of corruption in of
fice."
With that background the house
settled down to exhaustive debate on
the question. Two days it was argued,
with warm supporters of the governor
and those who sought to ignore his
disapproval sharing the time, but
each day adjournment came before a
vote was reached.
Along with Social Security further
veto arguments were made a special
order for Tuesday.
For the second time In the 1937 ses
sion the 17th week began with a Mon
day night session as members sought
to hasten the procedure toward sine
die adjournment.
Senate Reverses.
The senate reversed itself, however,
and planned not to return to work un
til Tuesday night. The house will re
sume Tuesday noon as usual.
Strife over $200 extra pay for mem
bers for “official expenses” faded in
to eclipse when the extra pay item,
along with other proposed deficiency
appropriations for 1930-37, was placed
in'the hands of a free conference com
mittee.
Both houses adopted a free confer
ence report on a bill to allow the
commissioner of labor to arbitrate in
dustrial disputes. But an unbreakable
deadlock appeared in the conference
on a forty-boor bill for textile work-
—
The house instructed its conferees
to hold out for a forty-hour regula
tion and the senate refused to give in
on its desire for a forty-eight-hour
limitation. v
