WALLACE OUT
AS RAILROAD SECRETARY

Atlanta, June 20.-It was an
nounced at the offices of the
Georgia Railroad Commission
Monday that Campbell Wallace,
for several years secretary of that
body, had rendered his resigna
ton, and it has been accepted.
Il have had this move in mind
for some time" Mr.. Wallace said
over the telephone.
The resignation caused consid-
cradle surprise when it was re-
ported about the capitol. Mr..
Wallace had filled the position
since the resignation of George F.
Montgomery, his hrother-in-law,
under whom he was stenograph-
er for the commission.
He still is secretary of the
Western and Atlantic leasing
commission, created by the last
legislature, but no announcement
has been made as to whether he
also will resign that office.
Mr.. Wallace resides in Mariet-
ia and is son-in-law of Governor
Nat Harris.

by the British, are recorded. The
British themselves lost two air
craft.

no obligation to buy If you do
buy you have the right to do so

is coming from. Then if you want
to buy car, do so. But take
your time, be sure you get the
car you want, and look at more

The state of Georgia owes it to high
n education within her borders to re-
move the taxes from college endow-
ments. The state through its law max
ng body spends considerable money

han the average state. but it turns
around and knocks out much of this

taxes from the institutions of higher

dollars in endowments to run the lar
