South Carolina general assembly returns to a busy week as a Ways and Means subcommittee proposes a bill around 9 736 000 dollars exclusive of interest with a 250 000 dollar interest item, trimming last year by about 1 275 000. Comptroller Beattie and Treasurer Scarborough fear refinancing notes and state deficit delays a timely act.

Bonus to Bring Money to State and County
Congress passed the Bonus bill boosting veterans adjusted compensation loan value from 22 to 40 percent, releasing an estimated 15 to 20 million dollars in South Carolina. Aiken County may receive 300 thousand to half a million dollars for about 1250 ex service men, whites and blacks in roughly equal shares. Many veterans will apply at post offices for loan blanks and likely use Treasury loans, while a few worry about principal erosion from interest. The government is a loan source, not a grant, with interest compounding.
