extraordinary difficulties which faced
the railroads of this country when

ATTORNEY GENERAL
 ALLOWS ONLY THE
 ACTUAL PER DIEM
Understood He Has Ruled Against Treasurer Paying Travelling Expenses of
 Committees

The statement of Senator ]. T. Denson of Greene, printed in The Age Herald yesterday morning. to the effect that if there is anything regarding tie legality of the recess committees to sit. the leg islature, when it reconvenes, would hasten to make everything all right, is regarded as significant in view of a report from Montgomery 10 the effect that the at torney general has held that the com mittees are not entitled to their expenses.
 From Montgomery nothing official has been made public regarding the alleged opinion of the attorney general. How ever, it was reported yesterday that be- fore the treasurer would pay the requisi- tions of the committees, he insisted that the attorney general express an opinion which the attorney general did. It is understood that the attorney general told the treasurer officially that the members of the committee were entitled to their per diem wage of s4. but that the state could not legally pay their expense ac- counts.
 It is understood that the attorney gen. eral based his opinion that the members were entitled to their per diem wage on the fact that $50,0oo has been appropriated with which to meet the expenses of the legislature and that the wages of the committeeman could be charged against that s50e00. In the event that the S5o,ooo is exhausted prior to the conclusion or the 50-day session. it will be possible, it is said, for the legislature to appropriate money with which to continue the ses- sion, and with which to meet the eX- pense accounts of the members of the recess committee.
 It is reported that the treasurer, acting on the advice of the attorney general, paid last Saturday the wages of each member of the investigating committee but did not honor the travelling and hotei expense accounts of the members.

WALKER RES|STS
 SOLVENT CREDITS White Says County COmmis- sioners Ignore Ruling of
 Attorney General

According to Henry P. White, as- sociate member of the state tax board. the opinion of the attorney general is held by the Walker county court of commissions in very low repute.
 MT. White, who was in Birmingham last night, declared that the Walker county commissioners, on the advice of their attorney, had declined to docket cases involving solvent credits collections. The attorney general has ruled that the recent act of the legis- lature in annulling a statute making t the duty of the state board to collect solvent credit taxes, was not retro active that is, that all solvent credit taxes due prior to the passage of the bill in February, were subject to col lection.
 Despite that fact" said MT. White fast night, the commissioners court, of Walker county, construing the law, apparently, as it saw fit, declined to docket cases regarding solvent credits. I am at present en route to Walker The state tax board will be compelled to annual the action of the court, and docket the cases itself It will be necessary for the state tax board sub SeQueHtly to nSar arS uHlehtS III the case and take action.
 "The Walker county case is inter- esting in that it is the first. We have recently spent some days in Mobile on solvent credit cases. Mobile rec ognizes the opinion of the attorney general as final. But no so witt Walker"
 MT. White will go to Jasper this morning. w. C. Davis, county attorney for the commissioners court of Walker was in Birmingham yesterday but ht did not discuss the solvent credit mat ter.
