ATTACK PLANNED
ON VALIDITY Of
HIGHWAY MEASURE
Senator Sam Kinney Says
Amendment Was Never
Introduced or Voted Upon
in Senate

That the validity of the act of the
legislature at the recent session
placing the state highway board in
complete control of the employment,
dismissal, placement and compensa-
ton of the departments employees,
and placing the chairman of the
board in control of the boards fune-
lions while it is not In session, will
be attacked in the courts, was an
nounced in Atlanta Saturday by Or
rim Roberts, prominent lawyer Of
Monroe in Walton county.
Anoth r interesting development
Saturday was the issuance of a
signed statement by Senator Sam
Kinney, of the Thirty-first district,
asserting that the amendment con-
ferring the above authority on the
board and the chairman of the
board was never introduced and
never voted on in the senate, and
asserting that the inclusion of this
amendment in the officially record
ed text of the bill as passed was
an error of someone, whether inten-
| t;onal or not, I do not know"
Mr.. Roberts stated that the test
case would be. brought by himself
in cooperation with Judge E. I.
Moon, of LAGRANGE, and Attorney
W. E. Watkins, OF Jackson, a law
yer, who is a member of the house
| of representatives, and that they
would represent citizens who feel
| that the effect of tt act is to i lace
the highway department and it's en-
ployes under political control ana
| domination, thereby destroying It's
efficiency and usefulness to the PEG
| pie"
The act of the legislature, which
| they will attack, he said, is Section
of the act passed in the closing
hours of the recent session. This
section reads as follows:
Text of Amendment
provided, further, that the state
highway board shall determine the
! number of employees, designate
their places of labor, prescribe their
duties, fix their compensation, and
also the salary of the chairman Qn-
Guiding the year 1929, who shall de-
vote all of his time and attention to
the discharge of the duties OF his
office, who shall represent the board
and is vested with all the power
and authority of the same when not
in session. No person shall be APP
pointed to or discharged from any
position in the state highway de-
partment without the approval OF
the board, >or when it is not in ses-
sion, of the. chairman"
This section of the act, as here
tofore published, was inserted by the
senate in the form of an amendment
introduced by President Herbert
Clay to a senate committee substi-
tute for house bill The house bill
originally provided that the duties
of attorney to the state highway
board should be provided for aboli-
ton of the office of attorney to the
state highway board and further
provided authority for the board
to ascertain and post notices of
