MOST LEGISLATORS

ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COM
MERGE GETS INFO" BUT
DOES NOT USE 1T.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Poker in its va
rious forms and manifestations is the
favorite pastime of majority OF the
members of the general assembly OF
Georgia, according to the unpublished
information of the chamber of COM
merce of Atlanta in connection with
directory of the legislature.
Dope" From Members.
The chamber of commerce accumu-
lated its information for this directory
from original sources, as heretofore.
1t wrote the members of the leglsla-
ture a request for information con-
corning themselves of an autob1o-
graphical but confidential nature IN
Somewhat the same manner as the
congressional directory is prepared.
Among other questions, after making
inquiry as to the date of their birth,
education, present business or occu-
forth, it asked them to state their
favorite sport, pastime or diversion.
Didn't Print 1t.
Poker was the answer of majority
of the lawmakers, but in publishing
the directory the chamber OF COM
merce had the diplomacy to substitute
patton. activities in politics and so
bird hunting, fishing, golf, tennis, cat
tie breeding, motion pictures and va
rious other forms of sport and enter
tainment in place of poker in a sutfl-
Gent number of instances to avoid the
appearance that the law making body
of the sovereign state OF Georgia are
set of gamblers.

COTTON GROWING
IN BRITISH EMPIRE
MILLIONS TO BE SPENT, WIN
SION CHURCHILL TELLS
BRITISH ASSOCIATION.

MANCHESTER, England.-Win-
ston Spencer Churchill, colonial secre-
tary, addressing the British cotton
growing association today, announced
that it was the governments inten-
ton to devote a million pounds ster-
ling to foster cotton growing in the
British empire instead of $4,000
pounds yearly for five years, as for
merly promised.
The million sterling would be pro.
vided, he said, out of the British half
of the 100000 pounds profits arising
out of the cooperation of Egypt and
Great Britain in marketing Egyptian
cotton during the war, the other mill
lion being to compensate the Egyp-
tians for the forced labor they under
went at that time.
Mr. Churchill said that, although
much had been achieved in the cotton
growing in the empire, it little COM
pared with what might be done.
Referring to Egyptian cotton he de,
clared it to be superior in quality and
only second in quantity to that OBJ
tanned in the United States.

NO GEORGIANS YET
GIVEN AN OFFICE
FEDERAL PATRONAGE UNDER
HARDING ADMINISTRATION
HAS BEEN HELD UP.

WASHINGTON, d. Gin no
other states in Dixie is the question
of federal patronage in the Harding
administration as badly muddled as in
Georgia and South Carolina.
Virginia has settled her difficulties
through Congressman B. c. Slemp,
who has already named man for
prohibition officer at Richmond, to
succeed the present democratic incunl-
bent, and North Carolina has pretty
well gotten together by the selection
of David H. Blair, of Winston-S Salem,
for the position of commissioner, OF IN
ternai revenue.
Florida has already through the in
fuence and good judgment OF w. M.
Bean, of that state, landed one or two
good places and buried whatever bit
of trouble might have been in sight.
But in Georgia and especially South
Carolina it is different. Georgia has
not even gotten a taste of federal pie
so far and in the Palmetto state the
differences among the members Of the
G. O. P appear to be greater and
wider than ever.
The truth of the South Carolina sit
uation is that Washington leaders
have been having a very difficult time
they tn were Wiling to trust their sue
cess. Joseph w. Tolbert, of Ninety
Six, has camped in Washington since
the Inauguration and it was supposed
that he had all the federal patronage
that South Carolina would get safely
tucked away when former Senator
John L. McLaurin turned up and the
press hailed him as their new born
chief. In fact for several weeks it has
been almost certain that McLaurin
would distribute the pie, but now E,
T. Thorne, of Greenville, S. c., and
other members of the Tolbert camp
declare that McLaurin will not be the
dispenser but that Tolbert will be, as
at first supposed. McLaurin was in the
senate with the late Senator Tillman,
but may soon be the real leader of
the G. o. p in his home state.

INAUGURATION WILL
BE HELD OUT DOORS
FRIENDS OF GOV. HARDWICK
ALL WANT TO ATTEND. EN-
MS BACKED FOR SPEAKER.

ATLANTA, Ga.-The withdraw
al of George H. Carswell from
the race for speakership of the house
has been followed with interesting de-
velopments in connection with the or
ganization of the legislature, and the
Inauguration of the new administra-
ton.
Positive announcement is made that
Gov. Hardwick will be inaugurated
Saturday, June rs, at an open air cere-
mony for which preparations have
been put under way. An immense
stand will be erected on the left side
of the Washington street entrance OF
the capitol, on which the Georgia SEN
ators, all members of the Georgia del
egation in congress, the state officials
and the Inauguration committee will
be invited to sit. Information is that
more than so per cent of the congress
men will attend the Inauguration.
The stand will be decorated and the
march to the Inauguration will be &C
companied by band.
The open air Inauguration has been
arranged for in response to requests
wick's supporters, who have written
that they are anxious to see him in
Quoted into office but would be unable
to satisfy that desire if the exercises
are held in the hall of the house OF
representatives, which provides ac-
commodation for very few people 9th
er than the members of the two
branches of the assembly.
Will Reiterate Pledges.
While the hour for the inaugural has
not been officially announced that ex-
ercise is usually set for noon on Sat
urdav after the legislature assemblies
on the fourth Wednesday in June, and
in this instance that custom will be
followed. Though no forecast of Mr..
Hardwick's inaugural address has been
obtained, yet, it is known that it will
be in the nature of reiteration and
amplihcation of his campaign some
what as a result of the unusually care
full study he has been making of the
states business and needs since his
election. In a word, it will be his Off
cial declaration of the policy that will
be put into effect during and through
out his administration.
In respect to the organization OF the
legislature, the announcement OF Mr.
Carswell's withdrawal from the speak
ership race has been followed by the
declaration that this will mean he will
be drafted by the incoming executive
as administration floor leader in the
house OF representatives, and such
construction and reform measures as
the administration will desire to have
enacted in the legislature will pass
through Mr.. Carswell's hands and
have his direction in the house This
will especially be true in regard to
leadership on financial and revenue
measures, which will be about the
most important matters before the
general assembly.
Hardwick Backs Ennis.
Governor-elect Hardwick is backing
Representative Howard Ennis, OF
Baldwin county, for speaker OF the
house, and all the influence OF the in
coming administration is behind his
