MEASURE ADMITS

Mrs. Georgia Weaver, in GAL

With hardly member realizing what

and with Mrs. Georgia Mcintyre Weav-
er. recent graduate of the Atlanta
Law school. looking on from the gal
lery, the house of representatives to-
day received bill drawn by Represen-
tative Beck, of Brooks county. giving
women the same privilege to practice
law as that now given men who have
passed their examinations. The bill
went to committee for a report. and a
heated fight is expected.

out certain words in section 40, article
3, of the state code. making it read.

board of examiners to that effect.

who have successfully passed law ex-
from a recognized law school. putting
them exactly on the same footing as
men.
Referred to Judiciary Committee.
Mrs Weaver, the only woman grad
uate in 1912 from the Atlanta Law
school, declared her intention a short
time ago of appealing to the supreme
court for a ruling unless the legislature
should at this session amend the stat
ute permitting her with other women
to practice. She occupied front seat
in the gallery today. but hardly one OF
the members knew her identity or paid
any attention to the wording of the
bill.
The bill was referred to the Judiciary
committee, which is composed entirely
| of lawyers. similar bill was reported
unfavorably by this committee last ses-
sion. but it lacked only four votes of a
majority when it went on its fina
passage in the house, and Representa-
