HIGHEST j. s. COURT
To PASS ON GEORGIA
EQUALIZATION LAW
Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
40S Evans Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, D.. c., Oct. TO-
The United States supreme court
late Tuesday heard arguments in
the suit of Major Charles E. Me
Gregor, OF Warrenton, Ca. against
Warren county officials to determine
the validity sof Section six of the
Georgia tax equalization law. The
plaintiff was represented by Attor-
ney l.. B. McGregor and the de-
PENDANTS by Attorney E. P. Davis
both of Warrenton.
Other attorneys in the case are
Virgil E. Adams, of Atlanta, for the
plaintiff, and Attorney General Ma
pier and Cecil Davis, of Warrenton,
for the defendant county officials
collecting the tax.
Former Senator Hoke Smith pre-
sented Mr.. McGregor and Mr.. Davis
to the supreme court and on his
motion they were admitted to prac-
tice.
Major McGregor has appealed TO
the supreme court to declare the
Georgia law invalid. lie claims
that Section six Of the Georgia law
requiring an assessment of the
county board with the privilege OF
arbitration is violative of the proc
ess of law clause of the constitution
and is seeking to enjoin the coilec-
ton of taxes against him on the
ground that they are unconstitu.
tional.
If the supreme court upholds the
contention of the plaintiff in error
by deciding that Section six of the
law is unconstitutional it will nullif9
the Georgia act, according to the
contention of Mr.. McGregor. 1t is
his opinion that the only retroactive
feature would apply to those PEG
pie who paid taxes under protest,
according to Section six, and he is
inclined to the belief there are few
instances.
Attorney McGregor said that two
different legislatures in Georgia nan
refused to repeal the tax equal1za'
ton act, but decision OF the SUI
preme court holding Section six 10
be unconstitutional would require
immediate tax legislation by the
Georgia legislature.
In the case now before the SUI
preme court the Georgia supreme
court held the state law constltu-
tional and it is upon an appear
from that decision that the case is
now under consideration by me
highest court.

Mr.. Mcpherson came to the United
States from Scotland 10 years ago.
He was builder by trade, and is
still engaged to some extent in the
construction business. In 1917 he
bought his first head of cattle-a $4

offspring, he bought a 500 blooded

new owners have captured prize aft

LLOYD GEORGE TRIP
BECOMES CRUSADE
FOR HUGHES PLAN

TORONTO, Ont, Oct. 10.-Turn-
ing a mere holiday into crusade,
Lloyd George today had become ;
missionary to America Of interna-
tional cooperation in the interest of
world stability and peace.
Instead of combining his American
journey to a few f1owery speeches
of gratitude to Canadian and Amer.
leans for their aid in beating Ger
many in the war, he has seized upon
a tenuous thread of encouragement
from Washington to convert his tour
into a demand that the allied gov
ernments accept. the United States
plan for settling the PREPARATIONS
problem.
From now on, that is the note
Lloyd George will sound increasingly
upon this continent. He knows that
land wires and cables are carrying
to the millions of America and Eu-
rope his views about the wisdom
of accepting the Hughes plan for
a commission of economic experts
to examine Germany's condition and
decide her capacity to pay repara-
tons.
Lloyd George within the last two
days has injected himself anew into
British politics and probably created
a political issue for 1924 in the
United States.
His attitude is one, of strong crit
icism for the British government for
not having brought pressure to bear
upon France to accept the Hughes
plan. France stands in the way Of
| that plan.
His sudden interest in this ques-
| ton rests upon the merest hint from
Washington that the administration
still is willing to discuss the Hughes
plan. That hint was all Lloyd George
needed
