EIGHT MORE DAYS

SESSION WILL END ON TUESDAY.
IMPORTANT MEASURES YET
UNDlSPOSED OF.

ATLANTA. Ga Aug. with only
eight more working days of the SEES
sion left, the house and senate still
have before them a number of the
most important bills of the 1916 SEES
sion.
The compulsory education bills
which We're passed by the house and
senate are different bills, and must
be harmonized before the finished bill
can be sent to the governor. Either
the house must pass the senate bill or
the senate must pass inc bill of the
house.
No highway commission has yet
been created. The bill which passed
the house was regarded as a burles-
que and joker and has been de-
nounced by newspapers throughout
the state as worthless, besides which
the officials of the United States
bureau of public road building have
declared that such commission as
this bill creates will not enable Geor-
gia TO secure her share of the federal
appropriation for road building. The
senate has shown disposition to i'm
prove the bill which passed the
house. but whether the house will
agree to these changes remains to be
seen.
| Among other important legislation
remaining to be disposed of is the
creation of an improved system OF
land title registration and the abolish
ment of solicitors fees, as well as
the exemption of college endowments
from taxation.
