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.

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.
