THE SEARCH
I sought Him where my Logic led.
“This friend is always sure and right,
His lantern is sufficient light—
I need no Star,” I said.
I sought Him in .he city square.
Logic and I wene up and down
The market-place of many a town.
And He was never there.
I tracked Him to the Mind’s far rim.
The valiant Intellect went forth
To east and west and south and north,
And found no trace of Him-
We walked the world from sun to sun,
Logic and I, with little faith;
But never came to Narazeth,
Or found the Holy one.
I sought in vain. And finally
Back to the heart’s small house I
crept,
And fell upon my knees and w*pt,
And lo, He came to me‘
—Sara Hende -son Hay.
Defense Funds {Available to Rural
Power May Be Lost by State
SANTEE JOB TOTAL MOUNTS
TO 10,692
Columbia, Dec. 20. — Governor
Burnet R. Maybank expressed fear
today that any delay in transferring
state rural electrification authority
lines to county cooperatives would
tie up in the national defense pro
gram funds available for coopera
tives.
The state REA has been enjoined
temporarily, pending final disposi
tion by the courts of an action
brought by Representative John W.
Crews of Columbia, from paying its
cash on hand, totaling $90,000, to
obligations allegedly not due for
five years.
The governor saidl, however, he
would promptly, sign all transfers
of state REA lines to cooperatives.
Maybank said he presumed the
federal government would proceed
with the further development and
extension of cooperatives’ lines,
even though the money was tem
porarily involved in litigation.
“It seems to me that it is essen
tial that these transfers of REA
lines to cooperatives go through as
soon as possible, so that funds now
being held up pending these trans
fers may be available,” he saia.
“These (federal) funds, if held up
longer, may get tied up in the great
defense program, and so it is of the
utmost importance, it seems to me,
to push these transfers through
quickly."
Miss Ethel Jones left Monday
morning for Orlando, Florida, where
she will spend the holidays.
Miss Theresa Leitzsey left Friday
for her home in Fairfax where she
will remain during the holidays.
Employment on the Santee-Cooper
development totals 10,682, and the
peak work period about has been
reached. The WPA has an announc
ed goal of 600 more to go. Contrac
tors’ employment varies considerably

will be higher or lower than the
present figure when the WPA goal is
reached.
The employment breakdown is:
WPA, 8,407; contractors, 1,864; Har-
za Engineering company field office
force 89; Harza Charleston office
force, 34; South Carolina Public Ser
vice authority, 225; PWA, 62, and
federal power commission, 1.
Yesterday the authority announc
ed award to the Atlar.iic Dredging
company, of Washington, N. C., at
$747,050, of the upper two and one-
quarter miles of the four-mile canal

voir and the Cooper river. Contract
for the remainder of the canal and
