PISTOL CARRYING
LEGAL At TIMES

The Court OF Appeals Tuesday. in
the case of Harris against the State,
from Laurens. held that the law
against carrying concealed weapons
must be nationally construed in Geor-
gia. and can not apply when 1t is
invoked against parties carrying
weapons temporarily for the protec-
ton of their homes.
Harris. having reason to believe
that his home was being invaded and
It's sanctity violated, procured a pis-
tol, and, entering his home, shot the
Invader therein. The court held that
Harris acted within his rights, and
that 1t would have been absurd to re
quire him to proceed to the Ordinary
and procure a regular licenshe to car
ry a pistol before going after his
victim.
The law, says the court, does not
mean to say that man must never
carry q pistol without a license in
any circumstances, When he has
good reason to think his home is ac-
tually being invaded, he may arm
himself and proceed to defend it. In
sudden emergencies, says the court,
when life or home or property are
endangered, a man may carry a pistol
until the danger Is passed, Upon this
theory, the Harris case was reversed

"Hired Out" by Husband.
The stories of the freedom hunters
ranged from the pathetic tale OF the
wife who was hired out by her hus-
band to work in the fields of a Cobb
County farmer, down through the tale
of the victim of conspiracy" and
on to the story of the wife whose
husband threatened to stick her head
into a kettle OF boiling grease.

woman, who says her life has been
an endless round of cotton mills and

MY wife and mother law en-
tered into hcliish conspiracy to put
me into prison and Danish me from
society on the most atrOcinuS and
dlabolicaI charges ever Matched In the
minds of men!"
After the laughter had subsidized,
Thurman continued:
with me out Of the way, rotting In

children in an orphan asylum and
then sell my property, taking the pro-

Thurman declares that before he
found out what his wife was doing
she got there indictments against
him, which have been nolle pressed
by the Solicitor Generals office. They

Pendleton.

with the result that his health was
shattered
He testified also that she was lazy,
and didn't like to get up in the morn

ALEXANDER HITS
U.S.GOVERNMENT

The Emperor OF Germany and the
Car of Russia have not the power
over their realms that the American
Congress has over the people of the
United States" said United states
District Attorney Hooper Alexander
in an address at the exercises in hon
or Of the birthday Of General Robert
f. Lee at the Atlanta Law School
Monday afternoon.
Compared with the President OF
the United States, the King of Eng
land Is an obscure puppet. There Is
no nation on the globe where the CEN
trail government has acquired such
power and dominion over its sub
tects as our Federal Government now
possesses"
Mr.. Alexander's address was based
on the causes of the secession of the
Southern States and the principle for
which the war between the States
was fought. He declared that the is
sue OF states rights" the original
cause of the war was lost sight of in
the agitation over slavery, which
made the North forget the legality OF
the States rights contentious of the
South.
Hamilton Douglas dean OF the At
lanta Law School, also spoke, eulogiz-
ing General Lee as a brave soldier
and a Christion gentleman.
He was matchless in strategy
temperate in victory, and divine II
defeat" said Mr.. Douglas. He stands
unique in history as combining mag
nificent military ability with utmos
courtesy and tenderness; as blending
military genius with incorruptible in
tegrlty."
