GASOLINE TAX NETS
STATE 100000
Revenue of 3-Cent Tax for First
Year Exceeds Sum Expect
ed by $500,0O0

ATLANTA, Oct 18.-The three
cent tax on gasoline has brought
into the Golfers of the state, for its
first IL months operation, approx
mately $3,40O,000, it was stated
Thursday at the office of Comp
troller General William A. Wright,
The year of operation under the
increased tax ended on September
80, and reports received by the
comptroller's office show that
So, 352, 964.18 has been turned in to
date, with probably an additional
$40, 600 from oil companies not yet
reported for the last qua--er
These totals are considerably
higher than was predicted when the
bill setting the gasoline tax at three
cents was discussed in the legisla-
ture in 1913. At that time it was
estimated that the revenue would
amount to about So, 100000, though
officials in the comptroller generals
office stated then that it PROBABLY
would reach the $3,OOO,OOO mark.
Of the amount collected, ore
third goes to the state highway de-
partment; one-third to counties for
highway purposes, and one-third to
the state treasury to offset discount
ed rentals from the state-owned
Western and Atlantic railroad prop
erty. Inasmuch as the sum requir-
ed for the latter purpose is $500
600 per year, there will be a bal
ance of about $500, 900 left in the
treasury to pay general appropria-
tons.
After retirement of the w. and
A. rentals the third portion of the
tax money goes to the state high
way department. according to pro-
visions of the bill.

QUITS GOV. WALKER
Athens Paper Won't Follow
Walker Into Khan Political
Camp

ATHENS, Ca, Oct. 18.-The
Athens Banner-Iferald Friday part
ed political company with Govern
or Walker, basing it's action on the
Governors confession of member
ship in the Ku Klux Khan, contained
in an address to the national klon-
vocation at Kansas City recently
The Banner-Herald declared edi-
torially that it had supported the
Governor in all his campaigns but it
cannot follow him any further and
predicts his defeat in future con-
tests with the Khan support. The
editorial follows:
There are thousands of Govern
or Walkers warm supporters in
Georgia who read with keen regrets
the interview by the Governor in
the Atlanta Constitution in which
the Governor admits he attended a
klonvocation 0 fthe Ku Klux Khan
IN Kansas City. Included in tia.
number is the Banner Herald.
"The Banner-Herald has here,o-
fore supported Governor Walker in
season and out, but we can follow
him no longer. The Banner-Herald
is Of the fir mopinion that no nom
est man can serve an invisible en-
pire and the State Of Georgia at
the same time.
"The Governor has two courses
before him. He can retire to private
life at the conclusion of his term
as Governor or he ca nseek higher
office with the Klan's political sun
port. In the latter event he will
have arrayed against him an over
WIDENING majority fthe people Of
Georgia and he will certainly be
defeated.
Whenever a contest for office in
Georgia is held with all issues but
the Khan issue eliminated the result
will be the same as it was in Texas
An ignominious defeat for the
Khan candidate.
"The American people are not IN
favor of any secretly controlled gov
eminent. Whether by the corpora-
tions, or oil interests, or the Ku
Klux Khan"
