North Georgia Meet
Savannah Valley Association Now
Comprises Ten Organizations
and 700 Members.

1900 people gathered Wednesday for
the annual meeting of the Savannah
Valley Associated Farmers Clubs. 1t
was the ninth annual meeting Of the
organization and was the most largely

A little over eight years ago four

AUGUSTA SEEKS
TOSTRIP POLICE
CHIEF Of POWER
War Is Declared Between Chair
man of Board and Head of
Law Enforcement Force.

AUGUSTA, July 19.-War has been
declared between Chairman E. ].
Lyon, of the Board Of Police Com
missioners, and Chief of Police George
P. Elliott.
At a recent meeting OF the board
the statement was made by one of
the members that Elliott had ignored
and shown a contempt for Chairman
Lyon and that during the administra-
ton of Chairman T. NJ Phifpot.
Lyons predecessor, the Chief had
shown an utter contempt for him,
At that meeting a resolution was
introduced to change the rule of the
board which says the Chief shall take
his orders from the board only and to
make it read that the Chief shall
take his orders from the board. and
when the board is not in session, from
the chairman.
Action was postponed because of
the absence of the Chief.
Kept in Solitary Confinement.
The cause Of the trouble covers a
multitude of alleged deeds of com
mission and omission on the part of
Elliott during the past three years.
The straw that broke the camels
back, however, is recent.
The story is that the Chief had a
white man arrested and locked up in
cell apart from anyone else and
ordered that no one be allowed to
see him. One of the commissioners
was interested in the prisoner and he
visited the barracks and asked the
lieutenant in charge to let him see
him. The lieutenant replied that the
Chief had issued orders for no one
to see him and that the Chief had
gone for the day. Efforts to com
municate with the Chief were unsuc-
cessful and, although the commits
sioner is said to have stormed and
begged, the lieutenant was obdurate.
The commissioner then went to see
Chairman Lyon and the latter return
ed to the barracks with him. Lyon
is said to have ordered the lieutenant
to allow the commissioner to see the
prisoner in question and the chair
man himself was then told that ii
would be impossible because the
Chiefs orders could not be disobey-
ed.
THE Chief is boss around here"
one of the officers is reported to have
told Chairman Lyon.
Would Take Away Authority.
The chairman and the commission
er went away boiling over with rage
They determined to have a reckoning
day with Elliott and now he is to
be stripped of his authority. His
champion is the Mayor, who says
that he is the best Chief Augusta
ever had.
Chief Elliott has had rather
stormy career as Chief of Police He
first became head Of the police de-
partment in January, 1910. He was
a major of the Third Battalion, Ma
tional Guard of Georgia. at the time
and he endeavored to rule the police
department along similar lines to the
Georgia militia. He has had trouble
from the start with the public and
with his superior officers.

Representative, However, De-

committed and Amended.

MACON MEDICAL-2-7 Macon B d
MACON. July 19.-Representative
Wallace Miller is opposed to certain
features Of the medical practice bill
one Of the most important measures
now pending in the Legislature, and
for that reason he is the recipient Of
scores Of letters and kilograms from
physicians In Macon and other parts
of the State. His position on the bill
has also been somewhat misunder-
stood. on account of this fact, Mr
Miller desires to be sete right with the
doctors and with the public.
The impression has gone abroad"
he states, that ] am opposed to the
medical practice bill that the doctors
of the State are so much interested
In and that l have been actively fight
ing it on the floor of the House The
facts in the case are these:
The Rules Committee, Of which
am a member, has power to take up
bills out of their order on the calen-
dar and set them down as a speci II
order on any named date. This, how
ever, can not be done unless the re-
port of the Rules Committee setting
bills down as special orders is adopt
ed by the House
"A majority OF the Rules Committee
saw fit TO set down the medical prac-
tice bin as a special order for Tues
day, July %. This bill is No. 1876 in
the calendar. and under the rules Of
the House would not come up for
passage until it was reached in its
regular numerical order l simply
protested against this bill being set
down ahead Of all other bills in the
calendar, and the House sustained me
in my protest.
Il am in favor of the object sought
by the doctors of the State. but think
the bill should be recommitted and
amended materially"
