a SHORE DINNER LEGISLATURE


OPERATING under a system that
~ limits their legislative calen
dar to a certain definite period and
with but four days Of that time left
in which to transact business of the
gravest Importance to the state, the
Georgia legislature, en- masse, junk
eted to Brunswick to get a shore
dinner and ride on the waves.
Is it any wonder that considera-
Bile number of the voters in this
commonwealth, look with favor on hi
ennial sessions for the states great
est deliberative body.
At a time when we are attacking
. Republican congress because it
persists in doing nothing, it behooves
us to set our own house in order
and not allow such ill-time eXpedi-
tions as the recent Brunswick trip,
to put US in a position of disad-
vantage.
Whatever else the present legisla-
ture may have to account for and
no matter what our friendly feelings
may be toward Brunswick and its
state port aspirations, that wholesale
junket to the seashore last week will
establish a precedent that may cause
some drastic changes in our legisla-
tive system in the future.
If the legislature of the state is
to be at the beck and call of pro-
pagandists with something to sell the
state, then away with legislation and
let us establish court of special
privileges and knock down our legis-
lative time on the auction block to
the highest bidder.

morrow the landlord may come.

"Il bet you are" answered the
giant. Just you wait"
Pretty soon he reappeared in the
doorway. And what did he do but
change into a pink elephant and
rush at them!
But Nancy and Nick bravely stood
their ground. Even when the pink
elephant took his trunk and lifted
them on his back, they weren't
afraid.
ooh, shucks' said the elephant.
Aren't you afraid of anything?"
only beesw answered Nancy.
"Ah, ha l thought there was
something!" cried the elephant, and
then he disappeared so suddenly that

EDITORIAL
WHERE ARE THEY uFAnrn.

WHERE AXE THEY HEADED?
The house has passed a state in
come tax law, which now is he
lore the state senate. In the rush
and chaos that marks the passage of
legislation at this late season of the
term, It is charged that should the
income tax law become effective
Georgia will be faced with = duaI
TAX system, that is, taxes on incomes
and the ad valorem taxes.
When called upon its passage in
the house, the bill was literally
swamped with amendments, one ex-
emptng the income from property
subject also to the ad valorem tax
that is, relieving it of the odium
of double taxation.
This amendment was first adopt
ed. AaIa
1t was then reconsidered read and
adopted. An amendment was offer,
ed that the amount paid the state
as ad valorem tax be allowed as an
exemption.
In drawing this amendment the
author intended to use the word
credit" making the amendment
read ''the amount paid the state as
ad valorem tax be allowed as a
credit"
He asked unanimous consent to
substitute the word 'rcredit" for EEK
emption," but it was refused
Upon that refusal, the double tax
alton feature was permitted to stay
in the bill.
Business men of the State of
Georgia do not want state income
lax law. The expense, the worry
and the time required in making
their federal5income tax returns has
made the income tax method a veri-
table nightmare to every business
man. And now to double this ex-
pense and worry and time by add
ing state with federal income re,
turns is more than they will submit
to with any. grace whatever.
Should the law pass the senate in
its present form, placing dual sys-
tenn of taxation on the people of the
state, it is as sure to be doomed
when it comes to the people for rati-
fication as the sun shines.

OPEN SEASON FOR SQUIRRELS.

The season for hunting squirrels
opened September 1st with a scarce
supply of the bushy-tailed animals
in West Virginia, according to
officials of the state game and fish
commission. The scarcity has been
brought about by several hard win
tiers recently and by hunting out of
season, they said. Idleness of many
men throughout the state on ac-
count of the coal strike has been one
cause Of hunting and fishing out of
season, according to officials of the
commission. Arrests have been
made all over the state for violation
of the game laws on the part of
men, who, having nothing else to do,
took up their guns and rods and
went out in quest of forbidden game
and fish. The penalty for hunting
squirrels out of season is a fine of
from $40 to 500 and a jail SEN
tence.
