mission is disposed to push the case
against Henry Christian, the guard
who, without legal authority, whip
ped the negro convict, Frank Fletcher,
Under the prison regulations, no one
but the warden has a right to whip a
convict, and while the guard did not

There seems to be a pretty general
endorsement of the Mccarthy bill pro-
hibiting city employees from serving
as managers or other officials at mu-
nicipal elections. The idea is a good
one and such a law is badly needed in
Georgia. In some cities municipal
employees frequently devote more time
to politics than to the business for
which the taxpayers pay them.
