UNIVERSITY WOULD PROFIT
RTHR0UGH LEGACY OF LIQUOR

ATLANTA, Ga, Jul y10.-Althougb
the state of GEORGIA is a bone dry
state, and its laws prohibit the keep
ing on hand any quantity of whiskey
wine or beer, 1.-The state itself is now
in possession and custody of twenty
thousand gallons of wine bequeathed to
the University of Georgia by the late
Judson L. Hand, of Pelham, Ca, and
it's not going to be destroyed or pour
ed into the creek or otherwise wasted
if the legislature passes the bill by
Representative E. G. Brown, of Clarke
county, wherein the university is sit
uated, providing for the sale of the
valuable bequest.
To destroy the wine or pour it into
the creek would be a waste of money
or the equivalent of money, in which
the worthy sons of Georgia stand very
much in need, according to the views
of Representative Brown and the sup
porters of mis- bill, and accordingly
they have evolved plan for turning
the wine into cash and putting the cash
to a good purpose.
The bill provides that the governor
shall appoint an agent outside the
state who shall sell the wine outside
the state and turn the proceeds over
u the governor, and further provides
that the proceeds shall establish the
Judson L. Hand Trust Fund, on which
the interest shall be loaned to worthy
young men who seek an education al
tie University of Georgia but haven't
the money to Pay their college ex-
Ferses.
In view of the fact that twenty thous
and gallons of wine has an estimated
value of forty thousand dollars, it vii
be seen that the bequest is one of very
substantial value to the university, ant
the trustees of that institution are very
anxious for the legislature to make
provision for utilizing it.

Endorsement FOR
NEW ORGANIZATION

The Sumter Light Guards, recently
organized in this city for the purpose

absence of the Americas Light Infan-
try, has been given the official en-
dorsement of the Americus and Sum

AS a meeting of the commissioners
of the trade body held yesterday after

the support of that organization to
the new military company and asking
the citizens of this community to CO.

Whereas, A number of citizens
have organized the Sumter Light

STRICT ECONOMY
TO RULE SESSION

ATLANTA. Ga, July 10-The first
meeting OF the house appropriations
committee Monday afternoon was an
informal sort of gathering for the pur-
pose, it developed, of the individual
members relieving themselves of eX-
pressions of policy which they expect
to pursue throughout the session.
In the main that policy is going to
be to shave down everywhere the knife
can be applied. There are, however,
scme pretty strong advocates of pro-
tecting state Institutions.
A great deal more was said of the
tax equalization act and the need for
a revision of the general tax bill than
O. amounts to be appropriated, and it
was brought out that Seab Wright and
Chairman Akin of the ways and means
committee, have a big card up their
sleeve which they will play at an early
date in the form of a bill to correct
tax evils.
Mr.. Wright expressed the opinion
that it would, in revision of the gen.
eral tax act, and the creation of ma
chinery for it's enforcement, make the
state abundantly able to supply the
needs of all the state institutions and
take care of some of the accumulated
debt None of the details were reveal
ed, rather the plans were referred to
in something of an air of mystery. Mr..
Wright used as an illustration, to
show what they are going to do, the
Fourth National Bank building. in At
lanta, worth two and a half million
dollars, which with the capital stock OF
tl.at bank at another like sum, is reach
able for taxation, but which as he said,
is bearing only an infinitesimal part of
its just taxation The same thing, he
said, is going on all over Georgia.
Asked if the proposed plan is going
TO reach all the invisible property, all
the intangible property, he replied to
Representative Johnson:
Mike, we are going to take just
about the deadest shot at that stuff you
have ever seen."

A determined effort is being made

under which the educational institu-
tions of this state may participate in
the distribution of the federal funds
appropriated for the maintenance of
vocational training departments,
Crawford Wheatley, of this city, is
taking the most prominent part in the
and has assisted in the franz
ing OF a bill which is to be introduced
in the house by Representative Can
non of Twiggs county,

cal schools receive $4,000 from the
state and as the federal statute pro-
vides that the state must appropriate
All amount equal to that received from

Georgia is complying with the terms OF
the measure.
1t is necessary, however, that spec

ent legislature.
Mr., Wheatley is being prominently
mentioned as a member of the admin
istration board for the vocational
training fund and on account of his ac-
tivity in behalf of the movement, it is
pointed out that his name is receiving
serious consideration.

To DRAF 7 GUARD.
INTO SERVICE As
REGULARS AUC. 8

WASHINGTON D. c., July TO-
The last step necessary to make the
entire national guard available for duty
in France was taken last night by
President Wilson with the issuance
OF a proclamation drafting the state
troops into the army of the United
States on Aug. 5th.
To make certain that the purpose of
the national defense act is carried out
the proclamation also specifically de-
clares the men drafted are to be dis
charged from the old militia status on
that date In that way the constitu-
tional restraint upon use Of militia out
side the country is avoided and the way
paved for sending the regiments to the
European front.
Prior to the application of the draft
regiments in the northern and eastern
sections of the country are called into
the federal service as national guards
men in two increments, to be modified
on July Is and %. Many units already
are federalized and presumably they
will be modified with the other troops
from their states. The guard from the
other states will be modified on the
Gay of the draft. The arrangement
was necessary to provide for movement
Of the regiments south to their concen-
tration camps without congestion and
t. the same end the division of states
into these increments was revised from
the original schedule.
The operative date of the draft was
delayed until Aug. 3, so that all regi-
ments can be taken into the army sim
ultaneousIy to avoid inequalities in
the relative rank of officers.
Fourteen camp sites for the sixteen
tactical divisions into which the guard
will be organized for war purposes
have already been selected and the
militia bureau is preparing the railway
routing of the troops to the camps.
seven of the sites selected are in the
Southeastern department, five in the
Southern and two in the western.
