WORK OR FIGHT BILL UP

Atlanta, Ga, July 1o.-Aftcr a few
minor amendments making the bill
applicable to strikers, broadening the
ages to which it shall be applicable,
and providing that its operation shall
not interfere with students in college
or those engaged in vocational work,
the much talked of work or fight"
bill passed the Georgia House of Rep
resentatlves yesterday by large ma
jority. 1t will now be returned to the
senate for concurrent action on the
amended bill; and as there is but lit
tie difference between it and the or
iginal bill by the Senate it will doubt
less soon become law.
This bill is but one Of several meas
ures intended to aid in the war needs
of the day, in recognition of the at
titude OF the Georgia Assembly and in
thanks for resolution endorsing his
war policies on the first day of the
session, Woodrow Wilson has sent
personal greeting to the assembly.
This letter was read yesterday in
both branches of the legislature.
Besides the work or fight bill, the
most interesting bill under considera-
ton in the house yesterday was that
authorizing local county taxation for
the schools but no vote was taken
on it, the bill being carried over for a
day.
A bill providing for the establish
ment of canal commission prclimi-
nary to the construction OF canal
to St. Marks from St. Mary's was in
troduced yesterday, this commission
purge the matter upon the president
and the national congress.
The fight or work bill passed both
senate and house and will become a
law as soon as it secures the approval
of Governor Dorsey.

TOTAL TAX RETURNS WILL
GO OVER BILLION DOLLARS

Atlanta, Ga, July 20-Judge John
{. Hart, tax commissioner of Geor-
gia. has already received reports that
indicate that for the first time in the
history of the state, the total tax re-
turns will so over the billion dollar
mark.
Judge Harris figures show that the
wealth of the state has been increas-
ing tor many years, but the state has
never reached the billion mark until
now. The splendid record follows the
passage of the tax equalization bill
which became law under the admin
istration of Governor John Marshall
Slaton. and there is every indication
that it will work still further to the
financial advantage of Georgia.
At the present rate Of Ave nails,
Georgia's income will be much more
