PRETTY ROW in
SENATEON Mills
Referring Bill To Abolish Market
Bureau To Agriculture Com
mittee Is Fought

ATLANTA, July 6. - A bill IN
troduced by Senators Brown of the
Fifteenth and Thomas Of the Third,
to abolish the state bureau Of mar
kets, a branch of the department OF
agriculture, and use that depart
ment's appropriation of 100000 IN
supplying free school books tc the
children of the state brought on a
hot fight in the senate yesterday.
In introducing the bill they asked
that it be referred to the committee
on education and public schools Sen
ator jackson of the Twenty-tlrst OBJ
iected declaring that unless the SEN
ate intended to refer measures OF
this nature to its committee on agrl-
culture, it should abolish this com
mittee.
Senator Campbell declared that
the bill was a direct slap at Commits
sioner of Agriculture }. j. Brown.
He asserted that the agricultural de-
pa%ment was just as necessary to
the state as free school books. On
being asked by Senator Jones of the
Twenty-seventh why he objected to
having the measure referred to the
committee on agriculture, Senator
Thomas replied:
81 am informed that an important
member of the agricultural commit
tee is on the payroll of Commissioners
J. J. Brown and is receiving a large
salary"
On being asked he named the mem
Der as Senator J. H. Mills whom he
stated was inspector Of dairies for
the department of agriculture, and
that he had been informed that Mills
drew salary of $3.50 a month. To
another question by Senator Camp
bell if he thought Chairman Mills
would be biased if the measure came
before his committee, Senator Thorn
as replied:
Il have strong reasons to believe
that the bill would be throttled in
the committee room"
Jones Wants to Know.
Senator Jones of the Thirty-sev-
enth wanted to know if Sen. Thorn
as did not know that the senate was
composed of group of men who
would not tolerate the throttling of
questions in the committee room. He
replied:
give seen things slipped over here
before and | don't doubt that it would
be done again"
After further argument the senate
voted 25 to to refer the bill for
consideration to the committee on
agriculture. 1t was limited by Sem
ators Brown and Thomas that later
in the session they would introduce
other measures designed to accomp-

Secretary of War Weeks refused to-day
