recommended the immediate Inauguration
of many radical changes. With commend
able interest, Senator Clagett prepared
and introduced bill in the Legislature on
the lires of the recommendations made by
Colonel Tompkins. This bill was amended
in the committee along suggestions made
by Senator Wilkinson. From what l can
gather from the residents of the tobacco
growing counties, as well as the represen-

will remedy many of the abuses that have
