PENSION ROLL OF STATE ON DECREASE Total Aipount Paid Pensioners in 1913 $2x3,070. Individual Records Giv en. Columbia, January 18.-Comptrollor General Jones in his annual report to the General Assembly gives an inter estitg resume of the pensions which the State pays to Confederate Veter ans and widows of Veterans. The re port is of especial interest to the en tire State. In that part of the report dealing with pensions the comptroller general says: "There has been a decrease in the roll, as compared with the year 1912, of 187. The total amount paid pen sioners in 1913 was $253,070.95. The appropriation was $250,000.00, and the additIonal $3,070.95 paid out came from refunds by clerks of Court of pension moneys on account of deathes and oth er causes. The clerks of Court have responded very creditably to 'the careful check ing of their accounts for the year 1913 required by this oilico and the result is evidenced 'by the large amount of refunds on account of 1912 and 1913, which amounted to $12,542.62. Generally a Separate Oflice. "As will be seen ('rom the statement below, the expenses of the pension de partment, county pension commission ers, county and State boards, salary of clerk, printing blanks, stationery and stamps amounted to $3,577.59 In 1913. In most States the pension department is a separate office and we doubt if any one of them is conducted on the economical 'basis as is done in this State, thus leaving the largest amount possible to be distributed among the needy soldiers and widows. However, the two lower classes, IC-2 and C4, are only receiving $22.10, a sum totally inadequate to relieve their wants. It is to be hoped that the financial con dition of the State will so improve that. before many years they can re ceive their full quota, $36.00 apiece, as contemplated by the Pension Law. "The law is working satisfactorily and it is a matter of pride to note that our pension report is 'the only one in a number of Southern States which gives the individual 'record of each soldier. The roll is one of hon or, and will be prized by coming gen ('rations. Statement. of Pension Funds.
