.HARDW|CK SCORES
WALKERS CHARGE
Of HIDDEN. POWER
In Letter to Telegraph He
Says Insinuations About
CIayt Robson Are "Cow-
ardIy FaIsehood"

MACON, Ga, June 25.-A letter
by Governor Hardwick denouncing
as "a cowardly and contemplate
falsehood the charge or insinuation
by Clifford Walker that Clayton w.
Robson controls me in any way. or
seeks to influence me in any way"
is published by the Macon Telegraph
in it's issue Of Sunday morning.
The letter was written by the gov
ernor to w. T. Anderson, editor of
the Telegraph, in reply to a letter
by Mr.. Anderson calling to the gov
errors attention "Mr. Walkers nu-
merous references to an invisible
government leaving the impression
that Clayton Robson is the real fac
tor in state matters"
Mr.. Anderson's letter and the gov
ernor's reply are published in the
Telegraph. Mr.. Anderson, in his
letter.. informed the governor that
the Telegraph believed he ought to
have been given a second term with
out opposition, but since Mr.. Walk
er's charges, if true, would render
the governor unfit for reelection, the
Telegraph would like to have some
statement for publication.
Governor Hardwick in his reply
denounces the charges in the Ian
guage above quoted and goes on to
state that he and Mr.. Robson have
been friends since they were bare.
foot boys together. and that Mr..
Robson always has been firm and
loyal to him, in misfortune as we'll
as in victory. and never has in all
that time sought a favor of him.
If Mr.. Walker knew the things he
charges or insinuates, Governor
Hardwick declares, he ought to have
acted while attorney general to clear
the states good name. "And if these
insinuations are true" the governor
inquiries, why did Mr.. Walker go
to Mr.. Robson's apartment two
years ago and beg for his support
for governor"
The governor takes occasion to
say that he does not believe the leg
islature ever has been or now is
open to improper influence from any
quarter

forced to walk back to town, he
stated, but was not injured or mis-
treated in any manner.

local papers for advertising pur-
poses, he said.

ly after IL o'clock. He had accom-
panied his sister-in-law, Mrs. Vera

dence. On alighting from the street
car, he was met by two well-dressed
men who informed HIM that a man
badly hurt was lying in a car in
front of his home.
DR.. Schrieber, according to the
chauffeur, went to the car and
there found a man in the rear seat
apparently injured. AS the physi.
clan stepped into tie car to exam
inc the man, the man in the driv.
er's seat thrust a pistol against his
body and at the same time two of
the men seized DR.. Schrieber and
pushed him into the car, which ilri-
mediately was driven away at a
high rate Of speed, according to the
story told to the police by the chauf-
feur, Jack Edwards, VINO was left
standing on the sidewalk. Edwards

who with several deputies and city
policemen instituted a search for
the physician.

old. He came to, Macon two years
ago from Boston, Mass. He recent
ly filed suit for divorce. His wife
left here about three months ago
and returned to her former home in
Boston.

HOOVER To SPONSOR
COTTON CENSUS BILL
OF SENATOR HARRIS
Secretary of Commerce APP
proves Plan Of Georgian
for Count Twice Every
Year
BY ESTES DOREMUS

, A world census on the amount anC
grades of cotton twice each year,
March 1 and July 81, probably will
be provided by the United States de-
partment of commerce as the result
of bill introduced in the senate by
Senator William j. Harris, of Geor.
gia, ard approved by Secretary Her.
bert C. Hoover.
According to adVices from Wash
ington Senator Harris and Secretary
Hoover conferred on the proposed
legislation and it was agreed that
the bill should call for a census
twice each year-one in advance Of
the planting season so as to arrive
at exact figures regarding the carry
over and the other just in advance
of the new crop movement giving
the current yield.
The first announcement of this
innovation which will mean SO much
to the farmer and the cotton trade
in general, said that the bill was
sponsored by Senator Norris, instead
Of by Senator Harris and probably
was due to a typographical error in
transmission over the wires.
Under the provisions of Senator
Harris bill, the census bureau would
gather the statistics in the United
States and the commercial attaches
of the department of commerce
would get the needed information in
foreign countries.
Penalty Clause
In addition to approving Senator
Harris bill, Secretary Hoover will
formally recommend it to the SEN
ate commerce committee, before
which the measure now is being con-
sidered, thus virtually insuring a
favorable report and its ultimate
passage.
These two reports, as provided for
in the bill, will give the world in
formation that is sorely needed, par
ticularly at this time, with a cotton
shortage imminent and definite
figures on the stock on hand at the
beginning of a new planting season
will give the trade a better idea of
the available supply from year to
year. Just now there is much un-
certainty as to the exact carry over
just as there was last year and in
years past, with estimates ranging
from 100000 bales to 100000
bales against approximately 9,000,.
900 bales in 1921.
This uncertainty, however, will be
largely neutralized by a strict CEN
sus of the cotton on hand in the
world as new crop is being plant
ed, probably more important than
the count of the new crop, which
will be announced on July 81 of each
year.
The bill, in addition to furnishing
the modus operandi for making the
co int, contains a penalty clause
providing for $1,000 fine or a year
in prison or both in case any one
refuses or neglects to give or who
Intentionally answers falsely the
questions of the census agents.

To Reeodify Conservation Acts.

To clear up confusion arising
through numerous Statewide and local
laws dealing with natural resources,
officials of the State Conservation
Commission and State Game Depart
ment are working on recOdification
of all statutes having to do with
oysters, crabs, game and fish.
All such laws will be brought to-
gether and published for the Informs
ton of employees Of the two depart
ments and others interested. The last
publication Of the laws relating to
oysters and crabs was made in 1918.
There has been no codification of local
laws since 1888.
Uncertainty regarding application Of
general and local laws to certain Sec
tons where both are in effect some
times causes doubt as to the boun-
daries within which certain restric-
lions are to be enforced. Many of the
general laws carry clauses exempting
certain counties from their provisions
Cases are on record in which laws
ouCh OPOioI1oh0 % NANOo
ing to given territory were enacted
may years ago. Custom confined the
operations within certain bounds, and
when any legal question came up it
was difficult to learn just what law
prescribed the limits and whether or
not it had been superseded by later
enactment.
A law passed in 1876. excluding trib
utaries of the Potomac from dredging
operations, apparently would bar

STATE
CAPITAL
Bonus Bill Case.

Annapolis
Papers have been filed by both sides,
in the suit brought by Harry o. Draw
ner against the Supervisors of Elec-
tons, to prevent them from putting
the Soldier Bonus act passed by the
last Legislature on the ballot for the
November election. An early hearing
of the case is expected.
The supervisors, through Alexander
Armstrong, Acknowledgement, filed an
answer to Mr.. Brawner's original petit
ton, declaring that the Soldier Bonus
act was not unconstitutional as he had
charged. Mr. Brawner's attorneys,
Harry M. Benzinger and Henry H.
Dineen, filed demurrer to this an
swer, charging that the answer did not
justify denial of his petition.
The main point upon which Mr..
Brawner based his charge that the act
Is unconstitutional is the provision
that bonds issued under it should be
dated June /, 1922, and mature Janu-
airy /, 1888. Mr.. Brawner points out
that the State Constitution does not
permit loans running more than Is
years.
In their answer to this contention
the supervisors declare that the date
of the bonds should be January l, 1928,
instead of June l, 1922. They explain
that an error was made in printing the
act and submit a duplicate copy of it
showing that this error had been cor
rected in all but one instance before
printing. They argue that the error
appears clearly in reading the act;
and that in any event only that part OF
the act in which the error was made
would be invalidated
The answer states further that:
"The people have the right to decide
in the manner provided in the act
whether they wish to accord this form
of recognition to those Maryland men
and women who served in the war, and
any reasoning which seems to deprive
the people Of this right is not in keep
ing with the spirit of our institutions"

Ladybuss Are Useful.

Ladybugs should not be exhorted to
"fly away home" but invited to remain
and feast on aphids, or tiny plant lice
will injure trees at this season by
sucking the leaves, according to Karl
E. Pfeiffer, assistant State Forester.
Whale oil soap or nicotine solution
is good substitute for the ladybug.
Mr.. Pfeiffer said. Caterpillars and
tussock moths, which eat the leaves,
can be disposed of with arsenic solu-
ton or by burning them out. Pro-
tecting the birds also will help to ex.
terminate the caterpillars, Mr.. Pfeif-
fer said. A spray of arsenic and nico-
tine where both aphids and leaf-eating
insects are troublesome is recon.

War Tax Recovered.

Heads of State departments whose
appropriations are becoming attenu-
ated may be able to take leaf from
the book of the State Conservation
Commission.
Ever since the Federal Government
placed tax on long-distance tele-
phone calls the commission has had
a little item on its telephone bills for
war tax. An employe who noticed
that the tax was deducted on freight
and express shipments made inquiries
for the company. He was told the
State Government was exempt, and
the company, after explaining that the
exemption for that Office had been
overlooked, promptly forwarded a
check for 1922, paid since October I,
1918.

Ancient Arcadia.

In ancient Greece, the province of
Arcadia was the central and most
mountainous portion of the Pelopon-
nesus, or southernmost end of the
Grecian peninsula, peopled by peas
ants of a peaceful and distinctly low
able disposition. SO famous did this
province become for the simplicity and
innocence of its inhabitants, that its
name became a symbol Of happiness
and rural simplicity, later to be adopt
ed by poets-among them Sir Philip
Sidney-as the foundation for srO-
mances, in which this type of life
played leading part.
