 Lease System

Dr, F.

 Dr. Whitin has had considerable experience in this work in other states and he will explain to the committee what steps the other states took to bring about action for the abolishment of the lease system.
 Many matters will be discussed by the committee. Among the foremost will be the matter of disposing of the petitions now in their hands.

Brandon as memorials or kept until they can be brought before the legislature Is being considered.
 According to an announcement made at headquarters, women In Athens and surrounding towns have written State Senator George Duncan denouncing his stand in favor of the lease system. Many other district leaders are following this example and will write warm letters to their senators and representative who have failed to do the will of the peo- ple, 1t was stated.
