POOLROOM CLOSING
BILL IS TABLED BY
CLOSE HOUSE VOTE

The Woodruff bin to abolish pool
rooms and billiard halls in the state
of Georgia was tabled by the house
of representative Monday by a vote
of IA to 70. It is understood that Mr..
Woodruff will make an effort to take
the bill from the table at later date
which can be done by a majority
vote
The motion to table the bill was
made by Representative Harrell, of
Stewart, after a long and acrlmon-
ious DEBATE.
Representative Woodruff, of De-
Kalb, opened the argument in favor
of the bill, declaring that pool rooms
are the lettering places for idlers
and breeding place for crime. He
stated that the pool rooms we're al
ways in the back of saloons or con-
nected with the redlight districts
before they were abolished and are
now the only relic of the dark age
in American history.
Mr. Woodruff referred especially
to pool rooms around the campus
of the University of Georgia and
not far from the Georgia School of
Technology and declared there was
no way to estimate how many bril-
liant careers have been spoiled by
their sinister influence.

setting sun, citizens living near the
camp site found a copper colored lad,
who in the confusion of the camp
breaking had been left behind

The state of Tennessee will not seek
to indict r. P. Baker for criminal
libel because the old man has re-
moved the cause of offensel to the
officials and people of Walker coun-

1t was in Walker county that
Bakers boy was executed for the
murder of deputy sheriff. The
lads body was removed 10 Tennes-

the youth was hanged, prepared a
tombstone with the following in.

When news of this inscription

They declared the fair name of the
state of Georgia had been impugned;
that young Baker and his brother,
now serving a life sentence, were
guilty of an atrocious murder. They
visited the grave of George Baker,
saw the tombstone and asked that
the reference to the execution be
removed. "Pa" Baker said it would
stand. Thereupon, a search was
made of the criminal statutes of
Tennessee. One act gave them Ii
cense to bring a complaint charging
criminal libel against Baker. Ham

elder Baker that he would be in

sentenced to the penitentiary. SO

NJ MICHAEL s BILL
ASKS DIVISION Of
HIGHWAY MONEY

| Representative McMichael of
Marion precipitated another fight in
the house of representative Tues
day when he introduced an entirely
new bill for a redistribution Of the
state highway fund and obtained its
references to a committee OF .the
whole house Speaker 1.eill : had
referred the bill to the highway com.
mittee but Mr. McMichael brought
about the change by a vote of "a
! to SO.
Representative McMichael, IN
arguing for the measure, declared
that it would not take anything
away from the highway department
and at the same time would answer
the clamor in the smaller counties for
money to build rural route reads that
are not on highways from county
seat to county seat.
The bill provides that on and after
January 1, 1924, the money collect
ed fro mautomobile license tags and
proposed new tax of two cents
per gallon on gasoline, which is pro
vided in the bill. shall be turned into
the state treasury and divided into
two separate funds. One of these
funds, amounting to S1,800,000, is to
be turned over to the state highway
department to match federal aid
in the construction OF highways I'm
der the present county seat system
and the other fund, which is t. in
clude the balance of the money col
lected, will be divided among the
counties of the state on a basis of
rural mileage for the construction
Of post roads.
Provides Sinking Fund
The bill provides that the twocent
tax on gasoline shall be the only tax
on that commodity and that the
treasurer shall set aside $685. per
month to retire the Western & At
lantic rental notes. 1t also provides
that the treasurer shall pay oil in
spectors so that there shall be no
additional inspection fee or other as
sessments on gasoline.
Mr.. McMichael was given three
minutes to argue for the commission
of his bill to the committee of the
whole house. He declared that he
made that request because the high
way committee had already ladversed
one bill that he had introduced, and
if the new measure went to this
same committee it probably would
not be acted on at this session.
Mr.. McMichael also pointed out
that there is no danger of losing fed
eral aid under his new measure, us
the highway department is given ST.
100000, which Was the amount it
received last year, the only change
being that the money must be paid
out on executive warrant, and that
the highway department must make
monthly reports to the governor.
Barrett Opposes Motion
Mr.. McMichael estimated that the
lwo-cent tax on gasoline provided for
in the bill would raise between ST.,
100000 and $1,750,00U for the con-
struction of cross roads in the va
rious counties so that the only good
highways would not be the county
seat to county seat highways, he
said.
Representative Barrett of Ste
phens spoke against the motion to
refer the bill to the committee of the
whole house.
