Speaker William II. Burwen. OF
Hancock County. Is an Atlanta visitor
FOR the first time since the Legisla
lure adjourned.
Mr. Burwell Is a practicing attor-
ucy. and has been more than ordi-
narily busy since the Legislative ses-
sion ended. catching up with more
than two months work that had piled
up during his absence from his offices

pie" said Mr.. BurweT. and there
are some few whJ think It will, are
mistaken, 7 honestly believe
Whenever the real meaning OF the
act is explained, ! lind that its COM
mon sense features are Immediately
appreciated. and the small property
owner is coming more and more to
realize that such meas.re, far from
working an injury TO him, really is a
positive relief to him a.. exactly the
sort Of law he needs
The property OF the small free
holder is easy enough. as a rule, for
the tax gatherer to locate-it IL the
big and opulent property owner who
succeeds in hiding his assets the
most This new law if properly ad-
ministered. will bring 10 light hun

is owned by big holders. not small
