General Assembly
Meets Next Week
The second session of the 71st
General Assemby of South Carolina
will convene in Columbia
on Tuesday, January 11, at noon.
Both houses are organized and
the prelimaries should consume
very little time. The House will
be called to order by Speaker
James A. Hoyt and the Senate
by Lieut. Governor, Andrew J
Bet ha or, in his absence, by
Senator Legrand Walker, ol
Georgetown, tho president p o
tem. The Lieutenant Governor
went to Europe with Henry
Ford's pacification expedition,
and he may not get back until
after the opening day of the ses|
sion.
The annual message of Governor
Richard I. Manning will
probably be read in both branches
on tho opening day. The referring
of this message to the
proper committees will likely be
all that is accomplished at the
initial meeting.
The most interesting election
to be held by the General As
sembly will be that of warehouse
commissioner. John L. MeLau
rin is the present commissionei
and he will be opposed for re
election by John J McMahan, ol
Columbia, at present a tnembei
of the delegation froin Richland
County. This fight is beginning
to attract attention and may
take on considerable of a political
significance before ic is
,through.
Recommendations to strength
en and perfect the State ware
house system, education, rura
credits, diversified farming atn
economy will be among the man
points in fhe Governor's mr-s
sage. He will devote a gooc
deal of his remarks to the pub
