Commerce Department Figures Show
S. C. Income 2nd Highest In Nation
Residents of South Carolina re
ceived, last year, a total income
from all sources estimated at $21.-
131,000,000, according to C W.
Martin, District Manager of the
U.S. Department of Commerce,
Charleston. This was a 21 per
cent increase over the 1950 figure
and was second in the nation
only to the 23 per cent increase in
Arizona. An analysis of the total
1951 income from all sources in
South Carolina develops that it
equaled an average of $1,003 for
every man, woman and child
which was an increase of 20
per cent over the 1950 experience.
This percentage increase was un
matched in the nation. Between
the years 1929 and 1951 South
Carolina’s per capita income pay
ments increased 298 per cent;
another national unsurpassed rec
ord.
In South Carolina, the major
sources of income payments as
a per cent of the 1951 income
were 14.8 per cent agricultural
income, 20.0 per cent govern
ment income payments, 25.8 per
cent manufacturing payrolls,
21.1 per cent trade and service
income, and 18.3 per cent all
other income. Mr. Martin point
ed out that the 25.8 per cent of
the total 1951 state income de
rived from manufacturing was
uneclipsed by any state in the
entire Southeast for revenue
from this source.
South Carolina led the nation
and the Southeastern states re
spectively in a number of other
percentage increases. Agricultur
al income showed a percentage
between 1950 and 1951 of 60 per
cent which was tops in the United
States; non-agricultural income
lose 16 per cent to lead the South
eastern states; Government in
come payments increased 23 per
cent to tie with the state of
Virginia for the national lead;
private non-agricultural income in
creased 15 per cent and was the
highest in the Southeast; trade
and service income with manu
facturing payrolls increased 10 to
15 per cent respectively.
Of the total income payments,
wages and salaries accounted
for $1,408,000,000 or 66.4 per
cent in 1951; proprietors’ in
come $423,000,000, 19.7 per
cent; property income $147,000.-
000, 6.8 per cent; and other in
come $153,000,000, 7.1 per cent.
Mr. Martin further states that
the information contained in this
release as well as similar infor
mation for other states was taken
from the U.S. Department of Com
merce publication entitled “Sur
vey of Current Business,” August
1952 issue. This publication is
available through the Charleston
District Office of the U.S. De
partment of Commerce, Area 2,
Sergeant Jasper Building, Charles
ton, South Carolina for 30 cents
and contains considerable detailed
information concerning 1951 in
comes.
Outbreak Of Army
Worm Reported In
Several Sections
Outbreak of the fall grass
worm, commonly known as the
army worm, has occurred in the
St. Phillips, Pomaria and Little
Mountain sections during the past
week, according to County Agent
P. B. Ezell.
“These worms seriously damage
vigorously growing plants and
pastures”, he said. Watchfulness
and use of insecticides where
needed are advised by the County
Agent. He advises the use of
toxaphene (10 pounds 20 percent
dust or 1/3 gallon of a 6-pound-
per-gallon emulsion per acre, or
Methosychlor (3 pounds “Marlate
BO” in 100 gallons water, or 15
.pounds 10 percent Methoxychlor
per acre) for controlling grass
worm outbreaks n pastures and on
hay crops with the precaution
that lactating dairy cattle be
moved off for at least three days
after application. Crops like grain
sorghum to be utilized for grain—
not for grazing—15 pounds of 10
percent DDT dust may also be
used. One application of any of
these materials will usually be
sufficient to check an outbreak
on any given area.

Seven Issues
On Proposal
Shown below is the ballot to
be used in the Special Election
to be held Tuesday, September 9,
when Newberrians will have a
chance to vote for or against the
issue of general obligation bonda
amounting to $300,000 for per
manent improvements in the city.
It was first thought that the

total amount of $300,000', but the
law requires that amounts be
broken down to show individuai
expenditures.
It was also stated this morning
by C. E. Saint-Amand, city at
torney, that in order to be eligible
to vote, qualified electors must
hold registration certificates dated
on or before August 9, 1962. Certi
ficates issued on the first three
days in September will not en
title a person to vote in th*
special election, since certificatee
must be held for 30 days prior
to the date of election.
The number of qualified electors
in the city is 4,478. The totals by
wards are: Ward 1, 668; Ward
2, 840; Ward 3 No. 1, 174; Ward
