PAST DUE PENSIONS
FOR VETS WILL BE
PAID THIS WEEK
Atlanta, April 3.—About 12,000
Georgians now receiving disability al
lowances from the government will
be eliminated entirely from the rolls,
and approximately 100,000 Georgia
veterans will be affected in greater oi
less degree by the new schedule of
veterans’ benefits announced by Presi
dent Roosevelt, it was estimated by
W. A. Sirmon, adjutant of the Georgia
Department, American Legion.
He said the number of those eligi
ble for hospital service would be cut
from the present 100,000 to about 12,-
000, a reduction of almost 90 per
cent.
The new rules limit hospital service
to veterans suffering from service-
connected disabilities, and those to
tally disabled from non-service causes.
Sirmon said there were about 9,000
Georgians suffering from service-con
nected disabilities and about 3,000 to
tally disabled from non-service caus
es.
Approximately 25,000 persons in the
state are now receiving either com
pensation for service-connected dis
abilities, or disability allowances for
other causes, the Legion adjutant
said.
The new rules provide allowances
for non-service disabilities only when
they are total and permanent, which
provision Sirmon said would eliminate
the 12,000. The remaining 13.000 of
those receiving payments will be af
fected by the changes In ratings and
compensation schedules.
Sirmon said ns manv as 1,000 per
sons in this state might be affected
by provisions permitting the govern
ment to challenge and rebut presump
tive service connection of disabilities.
He estimated also that 3.000 widows
and other dependents of World War
veterans would be affected in Georgia
an that the changes in rules for
Snanish-Amerlcan War Veterans’ ben
efits would apply to about 2,500 per
sons in the state.
"We all know that there have beer
certain abuses of the veterans’ com
pensation laws." Sirmon said, “and
while I expect some reaction to these
rew regulations, there will be little
hue and cry for reinstatement on the
compensation rolls of persons whose
physical condition did not warrant
their being there in the first place.
"However, new rules necessnrilv
prepared as hurriedly as these have
heen are bound to work hardships and
injustices in certain cases and there
no doubt will .be strong efforts for
reinstatement of cases singled out as
deserving.
“The Legion has taken the position
that it will stand by the President in
his economy efforts.
“He Is in much the same position as
Gen. Pershing was in 1918 when he
planned the Argonne Drive. The gen
eral estimated thp cost of that drive
at 100,000 lives. He did not want to
have 100,000 men killed, but in its re
lation to the purpose of his whole
campaigp he found the cost of the
drive justified.
“In this economy program the
President similarly finds it necessary
to reauire certain sacrifices. The men
will take it on the chin because it is
necessary, just as in 1918.”
BIG LUMBER PLANT
DAMAGED BY FIRE
Atlanta, April 3.—Two past-due
payments of pensions to Confederate
veterans totaling 79,500 will he
made about the middle of this week,
savs A. L. Henson, director of the
veterans service office.
T?edi’"tion in the tobacco tax from
20 to 30 per cent, effective April 1,
will mean about $600,000 a year less
for the pension funds and no further
or-si on monev wifi be available from
railroad rentals this year, Henson
said.

of where the bodies were found.
The schoolhouse had been aban
doned as such, and was used for coun
try square dances on various occa

Connell boys, Layton and Davidson,
started for their homes in the other
direction—all riding in a wagon to
gether, witnesses testified.
There was no evidence of a quarrel
when they left the dance, their com
panions said, and no apparent reason
for a dispute. But Ray Butler and
Lester Rutherford didn‘t get home
that night.
Frank Burke, a negro, walking
along the road on his way to pay a
Sunday visit, came upon their bodies
embraced, lying in the middle of the

Atlanta, March 30.—Widespread
changes in the University system of
Georgia, which embraces 25 schools
and colleges, are expected to be made
at a meeting in Atlanta on April 15
of the board of regents in charge of
the system.
Given broad authority by the re
cent legislature for re-vamping the
entire university system set-up, the
regents are expected to swing into
action to better coordinate the work
of the schools, and to abolish some of
the institutions under their jurisdic-
diction. Whatever changes are made
are expected to become effective with
the end of the scholastic year on June
30, 1933, although the board is em
powered under the recent legislation
to act at once.
A hint of the far-flung changes
which may he expected is contained
in the annual report of the regents,
submitted to Governor Eugene Tal
madge in January.
“Everyone must recognize that not
all of our schools, nor all of the de
partments in any one of them, are
necessary from the public viewpoint,”
the regents said.
Three bills passed by the legisla
ture and approved by the governor
provide necessary authority for re
adjusting the university system.
One of them provides tor a lump
sum appropriation to the board of
regents for all of the institutions un
der its control. This will become ef
fective July 1, 1933. It empowers the
board to set aside whatever amounts
it considers necessary for operation
of the various units.
Another act enables the regents to
make such changes in the sciiools as
will make possible their efficiency and
promote the educational interests of
the state. This law is operative now.
It permits coordination of work,
abolishing of departments, courses or
institutions.
The third puts the University sys
tem's fiscal year at July 1 to June 30,
instead of following the calendar
year.
The board said it has found “masy
unnecessary and wasteful duplica
tions of educational courses” in vari
ous institutions in the system.
“It is perfectly plain, after a year's
experience, that we have too many
institutions in the system,” it added.
“There are 25 now operating, count
ing the two experiment stations. The
expense to the taxpayers ... is pro
hibitive.”
Schools doing only high school, or
“substantially only high school work”
are expected to be continued as of
July 1, 1933. High school work will
be eliminated from all other institu
tions. The board said this “will not
apply to all three of the negro schools
in the system because negro high
schools in Georgia have not pro
gressed sufficiently to make this pos
sible.”
FAMILY WIPED OUT
WHEN HOME BURNS
I Mr. Drew Fuller, chairman of the
Irwin county board of commissioners
I found two minnie balls while con-
i victs were doing some road work at
the little ford where the old road
crosses the little branch where Jeffhr-
son Davis was captured May 10, 1865
! says the Ocilla Star.
1 These minnie halls are somewhat
like modern pistol cartridges, but
much larger calibre and much short
er. When first unearthed the balls
were intact, but exposure to the air
for half a day caused the shell part
to break up. There are signs of the
| powder left after 68 years.
As will be recalled Jefferson Davis,
president of the Confederate states,
after the surrender of Lee at Appo-
I mattox, with a small party of friends
! was makinp- his wav hack toward his
home in Misslssipni, making the trip
. through Georgia from Washington to
I Irwinville, where the flight ended In
his capture bv Union soldiers. It will
also be recalled that Mr. Davis was
! encamped near this small branch and
Hie soldiers came lvnnn his camn about
'davbVbt. Thev divided so as to sur

I took each other for enemies and be-
I ,ren shooting at one ano+her. The pipe

The finding of these greic ha'ls on
the spot n? the sVirreish is an inter
esting reminder of this, the last days
of the Confederacy.

, Tifton, Ga., March 29.—Three rob-
■ bers before dawn Wednesday held up
the night clerk of the Myon hotel at
Tifton, rifled the cash drawer and safe
iof $125, and abducted a policeman.
I They gagged the clerk, Weldon Ire-

Whitehurst's search for the ban
dits led him later in the dav to Al

pened while he was in the woods.
He said he was bound to a tree
with hay wire and as he struggled
for freedom the wire cut deenlv into

Smith’s substitute, which would
have taken the aWay the secretary’s
power, was withdrawn by him today,
with the explanation he did so “in
view of the interview with the pres
ident and a disposition on the part of
the committee to give him (Mr.
Roosevelt) and the secretary of agri
culture the responsibility.”
One other major .change was made
in the bill Saturday. In a substitute
for authority for the secretary to con
sider the effect of the proposed pro
