continued Senator Harris. mo one
would think OF saying that all of the
people of Georgia who are opposed to
the Kenyon and Kendrick bills are in
fluenced by propaganda from the
packers my statement that agents of

is true as evidenced by the letter of

1t is not to be supposed that the Wy

measure if it meant ruin to his large
interests. Cattle raisers all over the
country demand this legislature.
THE packers are paying three cents
per pound less for hogs in Georgia
than in any other sections of tbs

Co9DELE, GEORGIA
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1919-01-22

Probably the Vermont legislator will
never get over the habit of starting
for home Fridays and getting back to
his work at the capitol Tuesdays, but
he is giving the state only half as
much time as it is paying him for.
One member who stays at Montpelier
through the whole week recently made
an excellent suggestion regarding this
practice. He said if the legislature
wants to adjourn its regular sessions
from Friday to Tuesday, each commit
tee that has had bills referred to il
during the week should stay at the
capitol and give hearings on the hill
so it viii be ready to report when the
legislature resumes its sittings. The in
trodncer of any of these bills should
also stay there to appear before tbs
committee and present his views
Such a course would greatly expedite
/ he work of the session and save tn,
state many thousands of dollars.
