Mourice Myers Home
From Hospital For
Weekend Stay

On Friday c. M. Powell drove
his sister, Mrs. Maurice Myers,
to Biloxi to bring the latter's hus-
band home from the Veterans
hospital to spend the weekend.
Mr.. Powell was so seriously in
jured when the motorcycle that
he was riding was struck by an
automobile, that for a time his
life was despaired of. He was
taken to the Veterans hospital at
Biloxi where skillful surgery has
repaired much of the damage that
was done to his face, though he
was to undergo an operation on
his jaw this week.
Mrs. Myers is spending the
greater part of her time in BIZ
loxi while Mr. Myers is in the
hospital.

Governor Candidates
Split 81 on Poll Tax
Legislation in Virginia
By the Assoeiaied Press

Inc CampOel = dmenQInent-
legislation proposing to abolish
the poll tax in Virginia but re-
quiring annual registration and
the substitution of other voting
requirements-took the spotlight
in the State gubernatorial contest
today.
The Virginia League of Women
Voters. meeting in Richmond last
night, asked the States candidates
for Governor what they thought
of the constitutional amendment
on which Virginians will vote next
fall.
Republican Candidate Walter
Johnson and Democratic Can
didate John s. Battle were in
favor of the proposal. Democratic
Candidates Francis Pickens Miller,
Horace H. Edwards and Remmie
L. Arnold took a stand against the
measure.
Explanation of Views.
To Mr.. johnson the amendment
was a bear trap" He said, how
ever. I'VE must get what we can
and then go after more"
Senator Battle said he believed
any new voting qualifications es-
tablished by the General Assem-
bly, would be fair,
Mr.. Miller was for defeating the
measure with the idea of begin
ming all over again in an effort
to remove the poll tax.
Mr.. Edwards wanted the poll
tax question to. 60 to the people
without "encunabrances," and Mr..
Arnold said the amendment would
result in "even less voting" than
under the present systarn.
Meanwhile, Senator Battle had
framed a formal answer to
charges he said MIR. Miller leveled
at his school program when the
candidates spoke before the Vir-
ginia Conference Of Social Work
last night In Roanoke.
"Mr. Miller. who was the last
speaker on the program and who
knew I would have no opportu-
nifty to reply. stated, in effect, that
had a passport into the inner
circles of the administration and
had discovered $57,000.000 sur
plus" Senator Battle said.
Statement on Surplus.
Senator Battle said Mr.. Miller
further charged in Culpeper ear
lier in the week that he had dis
covered another $17,00O,00o sur
plus. These statements, made
at a meeting at which all of the
candidates for Governor were re-
quested to address themselves to
an assigned subject, were gra-
tuitous and inaccurate" Senator
Battle said.
In his Roanoke talk, Mr.. Miller
had accused recent State admin
istrations of "concealing" the true
State fiscal facts. He said Senator
Battle had discovered" a $57, ,000.-
900 surplus and asked why "this
money had not been put to work
sooner"
Meanwhile, in Roanoke last night
Clifton A. Woodrum. former MEM
Der of Congress. said only one
gubernatorial candidate. Mr.. Ed
wards, has offered the States
education needs.
Mr.. Woodrum called Mr.. Ed
wards approach to the school
problem direct and realistic" MIR.
Edwards has advocated a 2 per
cent sales tax limited to four years
as the best way to finance school
construction.

ferent versions of the bill.
