GOVERNORLAYS DOWN
► THE GAUGE OF BATTLE
Will Call Assembly Back for
r Extraordinary Session Un
less Tax Reform Founda
tion is Laid.
Atlanta. July 31.—Governor Clif
ford Walker came through today
with well defined legislative pro
gram. In the submission of it he
laid the weight of executive authori
ty more heavily on the helm of the
ship of state than has been done
siince the days of Hoke Smith, ana
sounded a word of clear warning to
the members of the general assem
bly. “My conception of duty c.om
pells me to inform jou. ’ he said in
his speech to the joint session of
the assembly at 12:30 today, “that
I will call you back in extraordinary
session unless at least the founda
tion for tax reform is laid at this
session.”
j Fairly the gauge of battle has been
laid down by the governor to the
assembly, after what has been un
questionably the most strenuous
|three days he has had since takiing
fcfkjce. In his address to the ses
sion he has accepted the challenge
offered by Representative Bussey of
Crisp in the meeting two days ago
of the house sub-committee having
under consideration the constitu
tional amendment lax problem, when
Mr. Bussey made the statement that
he had come to the legislature to
support the administration; that he
had voted against his conscience
\j’hen ho voted to repeal the tax
law. but did so because
the governor asked it and because
he expected to find a well defined
administration program of legisla
tion w'hich he expected to support.
He charged that he had waited many
flays and such an administration
program was not forthcominig, and
he. as a representative, felt in duty
bound to bend his energies accord-

ing to the direction of his brain in
the formation of such legislation as
he believed should be enacted.
Direct Resolution.
That more or less turbulent sub
committee session was followed yes
terday by a specific and direct reso
lution from Representative Fleminig
of Hancock and McMichael of Ma
rion. calling on the house to defer
all further action on constitutional
tax reform to the session of 1924
Numerous reasons were given in the
resolution, which was referred to the
rules committee of the house, and
which that committee, by a reason
ably close vote this morning decided
to report adversely, and which the
authors at that time decided to put
squarely up to the house on a mo
tion to disagree to the report of the
rules committee. To that resolution
Governor Walker has also addressed
a direct answer. He has told the
legislature in so many words that
he will not permit the state-wide
situation to be controlled by the pro
visions of that resolution, even
though the house pass it, for he said
in his speech: ‘There will not be
sufficient time after the next session
to inform or educate the people on
the Constitutional amendment that
may be passed. The regular session
next year will be held during a po
litical campaign national state and
local. You cannot hope for construc
tive legislation under such circum
stances.”
The resolution in question contain
ed, as one of its basic reasons for
calling the postponement, that no
time is to be gained by action this
year, since constitutional amend
ments will have to await submission
to the people until November of next
sear, hence that part of the Gover
nor’s speech was readily recognized
as his reply to that proposition.
Incidentally, Governor Walker also
has pointedly told the legislature to
draw immediately to an end of the
consumption of time on extraneous
matters, to at once deliver itself to
the consideration of legislation and
aw’ay from the numerous investiga
tions and, as President Carswell
termed it several days ago, “peck
erwood politics”, for, talking direct
ly in that direction, the. Governor
said:
Warns Assembly
‘‘l warn you that delay in action,
continued discussion of matters less
vital, is playing into the hands of
the tax dodging class which is so
well satisfied with the present sys
tem.”
Laying down what this afternoon
is accepted and recognized as the
administration’s definite and square
ly put program of legislation in his
speech today, the Governor con
cluded his lemarks to the members
of both branches of the assembly
with this injunction of more or less
pointed nature;
“To the carrying out of each item
of this legislative program, we are
solemnly and sacredly pledged, and
to that end I call upon every man
devoted to Democratic principles to
see that the will of the people as ex
pressed in convention assembled be
respected in legislative perform
ance.”
The legislative program to which
he referred is defined in his recita
tion to the assembly of things it has
not done thus far, and these he
enumerated as follows:
The tax equalization law has not
been repealed.
Nothing enacted “to bring intangi
bles on the tax books.”
Nothing has been done “to distri
bute the burden of taxation more
equitably.
No consideration at all has been
given to this hour on the proposi
tion to supply free books to the
schools, and he calls for some bill
to supply the first grade, as a start-
THE NEWS AND FARMER, LOUISVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY. AUGUST 2, 1923
er, which he says will require 560,-
000.
He is not satisfied with the pen
sion appropriation passed up by the
House, and asks for “certainly an
increase over the meagre pension
paid this year.”
How much of effect the executive
address to the joint session is going
to have will be noticeable by to
morrow’s hour of convening. To say
the least of it, the message has been
taken by the membership as a whole
as an unexpectedly strong one, and
its timing allowed for a couple of
hours of digestion before the after
noon session of the House- It was
the subject of nearly exclusive com
ment and discussion during that
time.
Personally Delivered
The rnesage, personally delivered,
came immediately after the House
j had completed, in committee of the
whole House, action on the general
appropriations bill, and in that work
the only change made in the appro
priation committee’s reeommenda
j tion was elimination of the items
j covering the state Bureau of Markets
which had been stricken from the
i hill several days ago during the first
j part of the heated fight. A fight
i was made by Dr. Whitely of Douglas
I on the appropriation for the Alto
; sanitarium which was unsuccessful,
i and an effort to increase the military
I appropriation because of the heavy
expenditures made while doing riot
| duty in Savannah, but lost. Other
wise the final period of action on the
lull was uneventful and the House
! was ready in its afternoon session
| to finally pass the bill and sent it
I to the Senate.
There were no new bills in the
House today because of the fact that
j Representative Stewart of Atkinson,
in order to prevent the Brantley
county measure for removal of the
court house coming up today, ob
jected to the rules committee’s order
of business of the day.
S. C. PLANNING FOR
EDUCATIONAL ENDEAVOR
Steps Taken at Summer
School of the University.
Columbia, July 31.—Steps were
taken at the summer school at Uni
versity of South Carolina to suggest
a program for educational endeavor
in the State. This was in many
respects a remarkable summer
school and Win. D. Melton, the pres
ident, was greatly gratified at the
fine showing made. There were 430
teacher-pupils enrolled and they
spent the time in hard study. One
of the most thoughtful classes was
that in High School Administration,
taught by Prof. Brodie L. Parkinson,
until recently State High School In
spector, now in charge of the exten
sion work of the University. At the
conclusion of the summer school this
class of 41, most of them superin
tendents and high school principals,
submitted a draft of “objectives to
ward which we are willing to work,
and which wc feel will be helpful to
the cause of education in South Car
olina”. This declaration of princi
ples is as follows:
1- Better organization of the State
Teachers’ Association with a 100 per
cent membership- and a full time
paid secretary.
2. The working out and adoption
of a code of ethics for teachers.
3. The raising of the standards for
teachers’ certificates and the requir
ing of professional training for all
teachers, with special requirements
for principals and superintendents.
4. Campaign for a better tax sys
tem for the State.
5. Campaign for more adequate
supjort of public schools.
ft. Placing of teachers’ salaries
upon a full time basis.
7- Adoption of a graduated sched
ule of teachers’ salaries based upon
professional training and teaching
experience.
8. Abolition of the district system
and the substitution of a count.v and
State system of school administra
tion and support.
This is quite a radical departure
in several respects and will create
much interest among the school folk
of the State. It is said that this
tentative platform will be the basis
of the educational fight of the fu
ture.

WONDERS OF LIFE.
(From the Christian Herald.)
The beauty of the evening sky
The faint green of a tree.
The petals of the flower flung
Where passersby may see—
These are the wonder things of life
That thrill the soul of me.
The splendor of a mother’s ej-es.
When gazing on her child.
So graceful, slim and mild—
These are the things that linger
when
Life’s storm is keen and wild!
The early flowers of the Spring,.
The late ones of the Fall;
The symmetry of slender spires
That seem supremely tall—
These are the gifts of One who loves
And watches over all.
The haunting beauty of the glow,
That lies across the sea;
The veil of twilight, vaguely sad.
With tender mystery—
These are the precious things of life
That thrill the soul of me!

A little hand to cling.
A little child s caress,
A little life to bless.
A little grief and pain.
A little cheer again.
A little fleeting day,
A little prayer to say,
A little house to keep,
Life has no joy as deep.
