BILL To ABOLISH
. FEE SYSTEM AIRED;
CHANGES PLANNED

The bill of the DeKalb county del
egation providing for a salary basis
instead of the present fee system
for paying county officials in Geor-
gia. was considered by the consti-
tutional amendments committee of
the house of representatives Thurs
day afternoon, and referred to a sub
committee for correction and re"
port at the next meeting. The sub
committee consists of Representa-
tives Steele and Guess, of Dekalb
county. and Barrett, of stephens
county.
At the suggestion of several men,
bers of the committee Representa-
tive Steele amended tn bill so that
it would affect any county in Geor-
gia that desired to have the salary
system, instead Of being limited TO
counties with populations OF not
less than 1880 persons, as it had
originally read.
Representative Barrett pointed
out that the fee system bill and an
other bill introduced by the DeKalb
delegation, seeking to combine the
ceiver, sought to amend the same
section of the constitution by sub
stitution. He claimed that if both
amendments should pass, the consti-
tuition would have two sections with
the same number. containing diff
ferent matter. ..
Insists on Referendum
Representative Cumming, of Rich
mond county, insisted that the sub
committee, in redrafting the BILL
should retain the provision that
each county must vote on the issue
before changing it's system Of pay
ing officials.
Mrs. H. B. Chamberlin, president
Of the Georgia League of Women
Voters; Mrs. Sanford Gay, president
of the same organization in Atlanta,
Mrs. Elliott Cheatham, Mrs. G. A.
Wallace and Mrs. r. L. thurman,
officials in the women's league:
Marvin p. Roane, and others, were
present to support the bill to abolish
the fee system as far as Fulton
county is concerned.
In discussing the fee bill Repre-
sentative Steele, of DeI<alb county,
brought out the fact that the meas
ure would not become effective I'M
til January L, 1929. He stated that
the constitutional amendment must
be voted on in November, 1924, and
ratified bv the legislature in the
summer of 1925, and by that time
county officials, will have been elect
ed for fOur-year terms which will
extend until January 1, 1929. He
stated that 1t would be unconstitu-
tional to change the salaries of Of
ficials who have already been
elected.

COTTON

NEW YORK. July 20.-The COT
ton market opened barely steady At
a. decline OF to 25 points III re-
s1oaEs 20 rather disappointing ca,
bles and scattering liquidation. The
announcement that a prominent cot,
ton factor OF Augusta, Ga, was I'm
able to meet his obligations had an
unsettling effect, but It was believed
that the outstanding accounts in III
local market had been evened up
earlier in the week and after sell
ing off to 1858, October rallied 10
23.74 on covering. There were prt.
vate reports of showers in south.
west Texas, which may have helped
the opening decline, but most trad
ers here felt that good rains were
needed and that showers might
cause shedding.
July sold up to $3.50 on some scat
tered covering and new crop months
recovered all but few points of
early losses, with December selling
at 1876, or within four points of
Yesterdays closing quotation. The
firmer tone of the stock market and
continued absence Of rain in the
southwest were the factors on this
upturn, but trading continued quiet
and the market eased off several
points from the best anad closed
steady at a net decline of eight to
twenty-three points. October sold
off to 1856 and closed at 1850. A
private report made the condition
of the crop 69.5. and the indicated
yield 100000, but was without any
apparent effect on the market.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, July 2o.-Re-
ports of heavy ginning in the ear
lest sections of the belt, a favorable
opinion of the weather in most sec
tons of the belt and a rather less
optimistic feeling regarding Euro
pean political conditions resulted IN
selling in the cotton market today
under which prices fell 16 to 81
points in the first hour. July drop
ped to 25.16 and October to 22.S1.
The failure of Frank H. Barrett,
of Augusta, was not regarded rs
market factor of importance. Some
selling arose from a private report
on the condition of the crop OF $50
on July 16 against 67.7 month ago.
July turned weak under llqulda-
ton by longs which appeared to be
due to claims of larger spot offerings
for forward delivery. New crop
months held comparatively steady.
In the trading up to IL o'clock July
dropped to PATS, and October sag
ged to 22.76. At these levels prices
were 20 to 70 points under yester-
days finals.
The supply of contracts became
smaller and prices took on small re-
coveries, except that July remained
around 24.75. October at 1886 o'clock
traded at 22.S1.
