to Augusta movie fans as he Is the
son of Louise Huff and Edgar Jones,

there is at present motion before
the Senate. unless the motion is
withdrawn.
Mr.. HINCKLEY: Mr.. President it
seems to me that it is rather late,
after the matter has been defeated,
to invoke this provision.
Mr.. POWERS: ! hope, Mr.. Presi-
dent. that the motion to reconsider
will prevail.
Mr.. CARTER: Mr.. President. on
the question of this motion to recon-
slider as made by the Senator from
Cumberland, Senator Hinckley, l
sincerely hope that the motion will
prevail. In case this motion does
not prevail, 1 wish to state to the
Senate that have witnessed one cpl
demic of typhoid fever which was
supposed to have come from a water
supply in a small town, and possibly
this might have been mentioned be-
fore, and in that case the result of
that epidemic was that nearly half
of that small town was carried off.
l hope this motion to reconsider will
prevail.
Mr.. HINCKLEY: Mr. President.
this Senate has voted to accept the
report of Ought not to pass" l see
no reason why, at this time, the
matter cannot be closed. / can see
no reason why this Senate should be
frightened by fear of an epidemic.
An epidemic might happen in any
community from any source because
this colon bacilli, which means ty-
phoid, may come in the eXcretions
from the human body just once. and
in case it got into a water system it
might cause an epidemic. But as
have stated before the evidence which
was presented at this hearing show
ed that only once had ever anything
of the kind been found. and l have
told you how they happened to ind
it. There is nothing to this claim,

In the matter of the attitude OF
the Board of Education toward the
adoption of the Junior high school
building in this city, Chairman Hew-
ms stated last night that the Board

Other developments made the
school board meeting OF Monday

his gloves in handling the situation.
