Because Hon. Jerry Donovan, of
Connecticut coul not bring himself
to see the immediate necessity of en-
additional federal judge in the South

there will be no such office created

The house of representatives, and ex-
plains why, in eli probability, the bill
creating an additional federal judge
ship in thhe Southern district of
Georgia will not become a law at this
session of congress
The objection of Jerry Donovan
sent the bill to the foot of the unani-
nous consent calendar and it is not
likely to be reached again this SEES
sion. The Georgia memltars were
powerless under the circumstances
to force the consideration of the
measure.
This means that there is going to
be a delay Of considerable length in
supplying this additional Judge, and
up to this time Mr. Donovan has not
taken anybody into his confidence as
tc why he did not think another
judge was needed down here.

BRUNSWICK BADGE

The following from the Waycross

the fact of the matter is badge No. 6

cross has a man big enough to take
it away. But here is what the Jour
nal says:
"Waycross may not have any of
the bloody mysteries that are befud-
ling Atlanta these days, but when
OGgcod Wynne, a Western Union
messenger boy, found a Brunswick
police badge in Waycross yesterday
he uncovered a small sized mystery
that is causing a lot of talk in Way
cross.

found in Northside

1T is possible that the adge is one
of set that the police department

rule police do not throw way perfect
