HOUSE ADVOCATES

Those Favoring Bigger Sal ary For Convict Supervisors Win--Attorney General

STATE CAPITAL BUREAU I
 THE AGE-HERALD Montgomery, Ala, Feb, 9

Advocates of retrenchment in the state government lost two fights in the house of representatives Friday They failed in their efforts to pre- vent the payment of more than S5,000 to the president and more than S4,000 to the associate member of the board of convict supervisors which will succeed the state board of control of economy and they failed in their campaign against the passage of the bill putting all legal work of the state under the attorney general and providing eX-officio fees of $500 for the work of the attorney general in rendering opinions to county of ficials.
 After a long debate the house, by vote of 66 to S1, concurred in the senate amendment to the bill creat- ing the board of convict supervisors. This amendment provided a salary of S6,000 for the president and $5,000 for the associate member When the bill was in the house it was amend ed by the reduction of the presidents salary to 5000 and the associate member to S4,s00.
 MoxIey Fought Bill
 Representative Moxley of Cren- shaw, author of the amendment, made hard fight against concurrence and received the support of large num- Der of members of the house but the argument that the management of the convict department called for the biggest men produced by the state caused a big majority to vote for the acceptance of the senate amend ment. MT. Moxley in his address op- posing the amendment declared that the salaries would be travesty on justice and a violation of the pledge made by majority of the members of the house when they were candi- dates.
 Those favoring the senate amend ment contended the creation of the board means great reducat ton in the number of employes and the act

 THE AGE-HERALD } Anniston, Ala, Feb. Q ]

Movement of troops from Fort Oglethorpe and Fort McPherson to Camp Mcclellan for the 1923 train ing season will begin during the present month and unofficial infor- nation to the effect that the entire fixed cavalry regiment now stationed at Fort Oltethorpe and composed of TOO officers and men will be trans ferred 10 Camp Mcclellan to make up permanent garrison has aroused widespread interest both here and in Chattanooga, near where the regi- ment has been stationed for several years.
 i. The Chattanooga Chamber Of Com merce has become active in an ef- fort to block the removal, according to published articles In the daily press and the interest which has been aroused over the question strengthens the belief that there Is a real foundation for the statement that the entire fixed cavalry regi- ment Is to be transferred to Camp Mcclellan and kept there permanent ly following the completion of the 1923 training season which begins in May. The fact that a large ap propriation has been made by Con- gress for improvement of the in fantry rifle range at the local camp and that high army officers have recommended the erection of perma- nent quarters for officers and men at Camp Mcclellan adds color to the report that permanent stationing of large numbers of troops at the local camp hereafter has been decided on by the war department.

of making the salaries at the high figures would be an act of economy in the long run because cheap men might cause the convict department to face deficit instead of causing the earnings of the department to in- crease.
 The attorney generals bill had easier sailing in the house, only II votes being cast against it. Advocates of retrenchment did not let their de- feat on the convict bill stop them and they entered the fight when the attorney generals bill was called. They contended that the bill means additional expense to the state gov ernment.

Werner OppOsed

Werner Opposed
 Charles B. Werner of Tuscaloosa joined the opposition this time, in- sisting that the attorney general S
 bill provided for the appointment of
 a special attorney for the public
 service commission without limita-
 tion on salary. He said rumor had
 been that the salary of this special attorney would be $6.000 year. Representative Travis Williams of Franklin followed Mir. Werner in support of the bill and contended it is one of the wisest proposed at this session. He said the bill is intended to put all legal work of the state under the direction of the attorney general and to prevent the employ II ent of special attorneys by boards and departments without the attor- ney generals approval.
 MT. Williams mentioned that dur ing Governor Hendersons adminis- tration. according to records, special attorneys were paid $21, ,498.22 and during Governor Kilbys administra- tion they were paid s49,7S7.16. He said this expense would be cut off | with the enactment of the legislation proposed.
 Says Economy Effected MT. Williams also said the bill would mean economy because coun- ties could call upon the attorney general for advice and his opinion would protect county funds. He men toned that his county is forced to pay $1,000 a year to county treas urer because the banks are not pro- tected by opinions of any legal of ficer and refuse to handle the coun- tvs funds.
 The salary of the attorney for the public service commission will not be paid from general funds but will come from the special assessments
 now levied against public utilities for
 the support of the public service commission.
 Other bills rushed through the
 house without debate during the day
 provide for the repeal of the acts extending the powers and duties of
 the state board of control and economy. The law creating the board of control was amended by the
 change of the name to the board of convict supervisors and the limitation
 of the new boards duties and re-
 responsibilities.
 l HydrO-Electric Bill Another bill approved by the
 house was the senate measure giv-
 ing hydro electric power companies
 the right to condem property for the
 construction of dams and the de-
 velopment of electric energy when
 they control one side of a river and
 had contracted with the federal gov ernment for a connection of lot maintained by the government on the otl CT side. Several power companies, according to information given the house, now own one side of power sites but cannot construct dams across the rivers because the law at present requires a power company 10 own at least one acre on each side of the river. The bill as passed provides that the dams can be con structed when the federal govern nent has permitted the company to attach the dam to government lock OH the side not owned by the com. pany.
