Fiends
Rigid medical examination as a
prerequisite to marriage and pro
hibition of marriages of drug and
alcoholic habituates, persons
afflicted with hereditary diseases
or lunatic taints, is provided in a
bill introduced in the state senate
today by Senator . A. Copeland,
of the Nineteenth district,
The author of the measure, al
though aware of the fact that it
can not pass the legislature, is
ddofident that marriare reform
along some similar line will even
tually be considered by Georgia
llawmakers.
“Some one has got to do the
missionary work necessary to
awaken the people to realization
of the necessity of medical mar
riage laws and I mightjust as well
be the one to do it,” said Senator
Copeland, in explaining his bill.
The machinery of the bill is
‘egaborate and the opinion of the
majority of the senate seemed to
be that the measure would be de
fated. The prime objection to the
bill seemed to that it was consider
ed an interference with personal
liberty that would not be tolerated
by the gereral public.
WHAT THE BILL PROVIDES.
The bill provides:
A commission of three members;
one a physician appointed by ihe
judge of superior court This
commission is to make a physical
examination of all persons seeking
0 marry.
Declaration of intention to mar
'y shall be made to the ordinary
¢ county at least 30 days before
ach marriage is contemplated.
pon such declaration the ordinary
\all require information as to the
rents and grandparents of the
arriage parties before issuing a
arriage license.
Persons addicted to the use of
ohol or drugs, affected with or
ving transmissible taints of dis
o or insanity shall be denied 2

Legislature Enters
~ Upon Third Week
|
‘Much Discussion Anent
| The Tippens Bill
Atlanta, Ga., July 16.—The
Georgia legislature has entered
upon the third week of its labors,
In saying this, one should not get
the impression that the lawmakers
have labored any too strenuously,
Truth to tell, they are just begin
ning to get down to work.
When the session opened, there
were many vacrnt seats, A large
number of them were in Baltimore
helping to nominate a chieftair
for the nation, which it now ap
pears was well done, though the
Georgia delegation did not cover
itself with glory by its activities.
Most of them have been severely
criticised, but that’s neither here
or there right now, being past
history.
Weli, with vacant seats in the
Georgia legislature, those who
were on hand were not disposed
to work, Thev waited for their
collegues to get back, and when
they came back tired and wanted
to see homefolks, there was a con
tinued slowness about the legis
lative machinery.
So, it comes about that the legis
lative session is just now getting
into full swing. The biggest thing
so far to claim the attention of
the solons is the Tippens anti-beer
biil, which has been passed by the
house. Passed by the house, yes,
but there are thos:2 who claim it
will get much farther. Maybe the
senate will pass the measure, and
maybe it won’t. If it does, there
is still another blow, sure and cer
tain, the governor’s veto. Gover
nor Brown has declared more than
once that he will disapprove any
prohibition measure which doesi
not carry a provision submitting
the question to the people. He is
a man of his word, hence look for
the ‘“Big Stick” to come dowr ‘
hard. - 1
But, says the advocates, we are
going to pass the bill over Gov-1
ercor Brown’s veto bya two-thirds]
majority, which majority as’ is‘
kaown is absolutely necessary to

make it a law. This two-thirds
majority may be obtained, and
maybe it won’t, The chances¢ are
nearly always against it.
For the sake of argument, con
sider the bill passed. .What next?
The passage of the bill withdraws
from the present revenue of the
state about $300,000 per annui.
Former Mavor Robert ¥, Mad
dox, of Atlanta, says the loss of
$75,000 per annum from near-beer
licenses in Atlunta would sericusly
aiTect this city. He says more than
two hundred store houses would
be vacant and many public im
provements, now under way,
would be very much affected by
the loss in revenue. His idea is
that the sale of beer legaily is the
solution of the iiquor problem.
Both advocates and apponents
of the bill are out for a fight, the
outcome of which is a matter of
guess-work.
