POLICE BUDGET IS
HELD UP FOR AN
ACCOUNTING
Commissioner Johnson Asserts
Beavers Request for $751;
$50 Is Asking Too Much.

Laughingiy remarking that he
thought the commission should save
some Of the pie for the new commits
sioners who will be on the job next
year" Police Commissioner George e.
johnson, reported to be of the Wood 70
2 ward minority. last night made fight
on the police department budget Of eN-
penses for next year, as prepared by
Police Chief Beavers
Mr.. Johnson suggested that a special
meeting should be called and that the
budget should be worked OUT by the
commission. Other commissioners,
however defending the chiefs requests
and figures, declared this was wholly
unnecessary, but finally agreed to sub
NIT the budget to Il special committee
with full power to act.
Sent TO a Committee.
On motion of Commissioner Fain, this
committee consists of Chairman Mason,
Chief Beavers and Commissioner john
son.
"Of course. If this committee can't
agree, then 1t can report the. budget
back to the commission" remarked Mr..
Fain. rs
Mr.. Johnson said he objected TO the
chiefs budget on the ground that the
chief was asking for too much in re-
questing a total appropriation for the
year Of 3357,35O.
All of the other commissioners who
expressed themselves said the chief was
asking only for what was absolutely
needed to increase the efficiency of the
department to meet the demands OF the
city.
Camp Dismissed From Force.
Policeman J. w. Camp, who shot and
killed his brother officer, Policeman s.
a. Bedding, and who recently was ac-
quilted in the criminal court, was dis
charged from the force by the commits
sion. He was tried on the charge Of
drunkenness officer Camp made an
earnest plea to save his Job, insisting
that he had not touched a drop of IL
quor until directly after the killing Of
Officer Bedding. and that he drank then
merely to quiet his nerves.

seven other men in a room In which
gambling was in progress, and A. j.
Bender, charged with sleeping on duty,

II the actions OF various grand ju-
ries throughout the state count for
anything, the next Georgia legislature
certainly will throw some rigid re-
strictions around the pistol traffic in
side the state.
The grand juries of Floyd and Clarke
two OF the big counties. already have
adopted memorials to the legislature
calling upon it to ask that their sale
be prohibited absolutely in its territory
and other smaller counties have fol-
lowed suit.
AS a matter Of fact, the smaller
counties are more bitterly opposed to
loose traffic in firearms than the larger
ones.
BY the time the legislature assem-
bles in June 1t Is likely that the anti
pistol movement will have assumed
such proportions that the law makers
will respond readily to the demands
made upon them.

Postmaster john r. Barclay, Of Rome,

numerous Democratic friends have as
sured him he Is headed for the official
tobosgan pretty soon after March A.
Mr.. Barclays commission expires in
February and he confidently expects
to be reappointed by the president and
reconfirmed by the senate. He knows
OF nothing IN his record that should
cause his removal by the Democratic
administration, but If he is removed
he will not take to sackcloth and ashes
He will sit tight on the lid until the

SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
BY JAMES B. NEVIN.

From the Brunswick circuit has come
to the court Of appeals for settlement
the question as to when a man legally
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-12-11

been raised in the Bru.n,,,.,K circuit
that q man becomes 81 wears Of age
the day he enters his cd year-when-
ever that Is.
The case comes up, too, curiously
enough, on the appeal Of a near-beeT
dealer, convicted of violating the prohi-
bition laws.
The defendant in assembling the
jury. challenged one of the panel on
the ground OF competency, because he
had stated that he was 60 years of age
that day. The point was made against
the challenged party that he had en-
tered his 6lst year. and was, therefore,
beyond the age limit set for jurymen.
The state held that the juryman still
was in his Goth year on his birthday,
and was, therefore, competent
The juryman was permitted to serve
and 1t is upon the question of the
exact time Of his entering his 61st year
that the case appealed turns.
The Lavonia Times has been fgur-
ing with itself, and it finds that there
are approximately 100000 Democrats
in this country, and that most of them
are more or less hungry for pie or in
terested directly in somebody who Is.
The Times finds that there are 1000
offices that President Wilson can fill
that is to say, 1000 pieces Of pie for
distribution.
That makes one slice of pic for every
1000 Democratic mouths hungry for
the same.
The Georgia weekly believes if Pres
ident Wilson can straighten out the
pie distribution in these circumstances
and not at the same time make more
people mad than he makes glad, he will
be a wonder
Still, The Times must remember that
Wilson's friends claim he is a wonder
and maybe their claim is well found

sllcing and distributing pie in the way
