In Congress Race

Candidates for congress from the
Fifth congressional district must
pay the entrance fee and file their
formal announcements not later than
August 16, it was decided by the
congressional executive committee at
a meeting Wednesday in the office of
Chairman J. Howell Green in the
Hurt building.
The committee voted to continue
in force practically the same rules
which have governed congressional
nominations in the Fifth district in
past elections.
Under the rules ratified by the
committee for the primary Of Sep
tember 8, the candidate receiving a
plurality of votes in each county
primary shall be entitled to name
delegates from that county to the
district convention to be held in the
senate chamber of the state capitol
on September IS, and these delegates
will. be instructed to vote for him.
Each county will be allowed twice
as many delegates as it has repre-
SentatiVeS in the lower house of the
general assembly
When the delegates in the dis
trict convention are organized, the
first ballot will be taken, and if no
candidate receives a majority of the
county unit votes, all instructions to
delegates will be Cancelled, and they
will then proceed to ballot until a
nomination is made. If at the end
of two days no candidate has been
nominated, that candidate who had
a plurality of county unit votes on
the first convention ballot, provided
he also had a plurality of the popu-
lar vote in the district, will be de-
clared the nominee.
In the event the candidate with
the plurality of county unit votes
did not receive a plurality of the
popular votes, a turnover election
will be necessary if the convention
fails to nominate candidate after
two days balloting. The rules adopt
ed provide that this turnover shall
be held at any time fixed by the
convention between the two candi-
dates with the highest number of
instructed county unit votes. If any
candidate receives a majority Of the
popular votes in any county in the
first election, there shall be no run
over in that county, and it's dele
gates shall serve in the second con-
vention.

ecutive committee who attended

Scattering cases Of Bubonic plague
have appeared in various cities on
the Gulf of Mexico. The Savannah
health authorities, like those in all

Gulf seaboards, are exercising the
utmost vigilance to prevent the Blu

lieved by the authorities that. the
plague Is disseminated only by these

usual wharf rats.
The object Of the proposed .ap-

money was not needed, 1t would not
be drawn from the treasury.

JUDGES BILL IS
KILLED BY VIVA
VOCEHOUSEVOTE

By viva voce vote the house of
representatives on Wednesday killed
the bill by Mr.. Stroller, of Bibb, to
amend the constitution so as to pro-
vide for the appointment of all
judges by the governor in place Of
the present system of electing judges
by the people.
Representative Stroller delivered a
very able and eloquent argument in
support Of the bill. His contention
was that the popular election of
judges has thrown the entire ju-
dietary into politics, and instead Of
being an extension Of democracy it
is an extension Of socialism. Repre-
sentative Cochran, of Bibb, and Rep
resentative Covington, of Colquitt,
spoke against the bill.
The bill was defeated by dis
agreeing to the favorable report OF
the constitutional amendments COM
mittee.
The house passed after extended
debate the bill by Mr.. Carswell, of
Wilkinson, to amend the constitution
SO as to authorize appropriations for
higher education, which appropria-
lions are now limited by the con-
stitution to donations" to the Uni
versity of Georgia.
The bill as introduced authorized
schools and high schools. The house
adopted, however, before passing the
bill an amendment limiting its pro-
visions to high schools. This was
not satisfactory to the supporters
of the bill, but was accepted by them
storing, the original provisions of
the bill when it reaches the senate.
The house on Wednesday passed
a bill by Mr.. Stovall, of McDuffie,
reducing from $1,H99 to- $500 the
in the payment Of the salary Ct the
solicitor general of the Augusta cir
cult; bill by Mr.. Law, of Burke
county, to increase the salary of
the deputy insurance commissioner
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year; and q
bill by. Mr.. Neill, of Muscogee, and
others to provide for the printing Of
the supreme court reports by con-
tract after competitive bids had been
submitted instead of by the state
printer, as at present.
Local Bills Passed
The following local bills were pass
ed by the house on Wednesday.
To prohibit hunting or trapping
of fox in Greene county.
To fix salary Of Wheeler county
treasurer.
To revise tax levy in town Of
Doerun.
To extend city limits Of Athens
To provide that fines paid for vio-
1ation Of Chatham county ordinances

ury for support Of municipal court.
To create county depository for

Attempt to Remove
3Trustees From G. N. |.
Board Brings on Fight

What promises to develop a hot
contest on the floor Of the house of
Representatives resulted from de-
cision reached Wednesday afternoon
by the house committee on the Uni
versity Of Georgia to report adverse
ly bill to remove from the board
Of trustees Of the Georgia Normal
and Industrial College the three trus-
tees appointed from the general uni
versity board.
The vote on the report was IL to
% after lengthy discussion in
which Representative Alfriend, of
Baldwin, Chancellor David c. Barrow
and others participated. Mr.. Alfriend
and Mr.. Davis, of Floyd county cast
the onlv two votes for the measure.
The bill already has passed the
senate and it's advocates have indi-
Gated their intention to bring in a
minority report SO that the whote
matter can be threshed out on the
floor of the house.
1t is charged that since the ap-
pointment of three general board
trustees to the board of G. N. I. c.,
great friction has developed between
the trustees and the faculty of the
institution, resulting in compiled
tons embarrassing to all parties con-
cerned and to the best interests of
the college.
