PERRY MEASURE FRIENDS
SAY INJUSTICE WAS DONE
A number of representatives have
signed a tard, In which It is said that
the report in Monday’s Georgian of the
passage of the child labor bill by the
house does an “Inexcusable Injustice”
to those who voted for the Perry
amendment, which met defeat.
The card sets forth that the Perry
amendment was wise and just, and also
that not all, lf-hny, of those who voted
for It did so with the intention of doing
the Bell bill any harm or of causing its
defeat.
The argument in the card is as fol
lows:
“Of the 81 rotes for the Perry amend
meat, 86 were cast by those who favored
the law taat year, only 19 by those who
opposed It.
•*0«. the 70 rotes against the Terry amend
ment. 87 were cast by those who favored
the law last year, 29 by thoae who op
posed It
“There were 62 rotea last year ngnlnst
the law. Of these. 99 voted against the
Perry amendment, 19 In furor of It.
••There were 108 votes for tho la'
voted for the Perry
law last year, op]
ment yeatenlay.
“Or. teat-It the other way. Of those who
fnvored the Perry amendment Monday 31
per cent came from those who opposed
the law last year; of those who opposed

came from the opponents
J ’«iru lur n ninu moor IBW,
tho advocates of the Perry amendment »
per rent came from tbcao wbo favored tbe
law Inat year.
"Again, of the opponent! of the law Inat
year oho voted for tho Perry amendment
Monday, aeveral. atated that they would
hare favored the law laat year If It had
been more effective. Of thoae onpoii
of the law last year who voted nni
the Perry amendmeot yesterday (and
Included moat of the leadera of laat yc
opposition) aeveral haoed their objection to
too perry amendment on tho fact that “
went too fnr; that la to aay, that It wo
be effective. Thoae who were active —
behalf of the taw laat year, tint who voted
yeaterday agalnat the Perry amendment,
were unahtmotu In declaring tho nu
mrnt an Improvement on the hill, and
equally unanlmoua In dectarlug that L
opposition to It wan baaed aolely on the
npprebennlon thnt tta adoption might an.
tagonlae oome aenatora to the bill."
What Tho Georgian 8ald.
The tenor of The Oeorglan’a report
wan that the light for the Perry amend
ment, If victorious would have Imper
iled the Bell bill when It reached the
■enate aa the Perry amendment would
make the meaaure unacceptable to the
upper houae and would therefore prob
ably accomptlah Its defeat.
That argument wae atrongly brought
out In the apeechee made Monday by
Mr. Bell, author of the bill; Mr. Felder
and Mr. Stovall, who led the fight for
the bill; Mr. Blackburn, Mr. Wright
and othera who were moat conspicuous
In their light for the anti-child labor
bill.
The Georgian made no etatement or
Inelnuatlon on Its own authority that
the friends .of the Perry- amendment
were aeeklng to kill or hurt the Bell
bill.
