GOV. TAI.MADGE BEGINS RULE
OF GEORGIABYPROCLAM
Course Unprecedented;
Backed By Att. Gen.,
State Secretary

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. Is. CUP
Eugene Talmadge resorted
to government by proclamation
yesterday to operate the state of
Georgi awithout budget approx
ed by the legislature.
The Georgia governor who has
built his presidential dreams on
bitter TRADES against extra-constl-
tutional procedure of the New
Deal, last night was embarked on
a course as unprecedented as any
program developed by the Roose-
welt administration.
His proclamation, re-enactlng
1882 to 1885 appropriation mea-
sures, was designed to release ap-
proximately SS,000,000 in unex-
pended SURPRISES for use of the
state government during the pres
ent fiscal year.
His action was necessitated by
failure of the last legislature,
which adjourned in deadlock, to
enact an appropriations measure.
Since Jan. 1, scorning to call a
special session, the Georgia COVER
nor has operated on a restricted
system of utilizing uneXpended
appropriations from last year.
The action yesterday makes
available approximately 70 per
cent of what would be an average
appropriation for a fiscal year
probably easily sufficient to en-
able / h e budget-trimmlng Tat
madge to operate state depart
ments, unless his proclamation Is
challen) ged and outlawed by the
state supreme court. !,
Talmadged. however, appended
to his proclamation an opinion by
Attorney General NJ. ]. Yoemanss,
holding that he is authorzide legal
ly to draw warrants for operations
of state government from unex-
pended SURPRISES. The proclama-
ton also was signed by Secretary
of State John B. Wilson.
The move indicated Talmadge
will not declare martial law 70
take peremptory control OF tne
states finances under troopers,
bayonets-as many Georgians had
believed he would be forced to 90.
Operating the government under
proclamation. ne is expected TO
go even further-perhaps IN July
and set a state tax levy by pro-
clamation under his executive
powers. Such an action would be
utterly without precedent. -,
Pinch of difficult times In the
period 1925 made available IN
sufficient funds to fulfill appro-
priations for those years 100 per
cent.

HOUSE EXTENDS !,
NEUTRALITY LAW

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. CUP
The house voted 353 to 81 under.
gag" rule yesterday to extend
until May 1, 1887, the existing
neutrality law, with revisions pro-
hibiting loans and credits to bel
ligerent nations and exempting
South American nations when at
war with foreign countries.
Only 40 minutes of debate was
permitted by the administration
leadership under the strictest rule
used in the .74th congress. That
was enough time, however, for a
sharp fight from advocates of a
permanent neutrality program,
who accused the house foreign
affairs committee of accepting a
"makeshift."
The measure seeks to keep this
country. from becoming involved
in foreign wars mainly through
provisions for banning export of
arms, munitions and implements
of war to fighting nations. The.
committee scrapped drastic pro-
posals for giving the government
power to regulate shipments of
oil, cotton, copper and other "es-
sential war. materials. W 70
Two-thirds majority was re-
ouired for. house passage, since
rules were suspended to impose
the gag" House action Left the
senate II days to act on the neu-
trality law, which will expire at
midnight, February 20, unless ex-,
tended. ~.
The neutrality bill Nalao was
called up in the senate by Chair
man Key Pittman, Democrat, of
Nevada, of. the foreign affairs
committee, but after objection
from Senator Charles L. McNary,
Republican, of Oregon, it was
agreed to postpone consideration

The decision rested on the right

For Second Time

A thoroughly enjoyable sacred
concert was given Sunday night
at the First Methodist church
when Madam Anna D'Areo rem
dered a notable program consist
ing of three musical works, two
of them being the elaborate Bach
kantate, "Praise the Lord, All Ye
Lands" and Mozart's mOtette,
"Exult and Jubel," while the pro-
gram was closed with OunOd's so,
Divine Redeemer."
The Bach selection was in four
movements, and the motette was
a three-part work, both of them
very beautiful sacred works and
the florid passages highly suitable
to the singers lyric voice.
Miss Kate Dotson was most eff
fective as the accompanist and
rendered a prelude, Homage to
Grieg," by Allen, and "Inflammat-
tus" from Rossinis Stabat Mater
as the offertory.

Political observers today predict
ed emergence of the Republican
charge that insurance policies are
unsafe under the New Deal as the
major campaign issue.
The White House revealed that
President Roosevelt will meet to-
morrow in a surprise conference
with insurance executives.
Ten days ago Frank Knox told
a political audience that savings
banks and insurance policies are
unsafe under the administration.
The White House said the con-
ference will have no connection
with Knox's statement but observ-
