ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 3-A pitched
battle in which not an inch is going tc
be yieldel by eiter side without
struggle is going to be fought over the
prohibition question in the special ses-
sion of the Georgia assembly which
opened this morning.
1t develops that there is to be no
compromise, no yielding, no under
standings for the saving of time. Eacn
side is going to stagd out for the ut.
termost, and use every parliamentary
weapon it can lay it's hands on. Ii is
rs impossible to predict how long the
fight will last as it is to foresee the end
Of the European war.
The nti-prohibitionists have al
ready prepared a new bomb to hurl
into the prohi camp. They are going
to attack the governors call itself, and
claim that under the wording of the
call the legislature will have no right
to pass prohibition measures.
1t will be recalled that Governor
Ifarris used in his call the words con
slider the question Of prohibition" The
i-prohibitionists maintain that con-
sidering question: and passing laws
on it are two separate and distinct
things, and one of the first skir-
mishes will be over this phraseology.
The i-prohibitionists declare that
the wording is clear that action may
be taken on the other subjects includ-
ed in the governors call, but that not
thing is said about taking action On
