Atlanta, August 24 —Governor Smith did not veto the Western & Atlantic lease commission bill and the bill creating a state auditor be cause he was’opposed to either idea. The governor is -in favor of a permanent Western & Atlantic lease commission, and Is in favor of hav ing a state auditor. He killed the bills because he believed they failed to provide properly for what he be lieved the state needed. He vetoed the Western & Atlantic bill because he believed thesppolnt- ment on the commission of mem bers of-the legislature was uncon. stlt.ntional, .because he. believed the Size, eight members, was too large, and hecaase he believed in anv case that it was wrorg to limit the mem bership to members of the legists- He vetoed the state auditor bill because be dvd not believe its, pro visions could be possibly carried hpt wjth the inadequate machinery * raftTM GOOD RACING AT PINE PARK FOR NEXT WEEK A String of Fast Horses to Come to Valdosta A.

The brejfpry Interests arei fitting snch legislation as the Tippins bill, but the liquor inter ests, which ate not the same, have nothing to fear from that bill, and shrewdly might derive actual bene fit from its passage, trusting that after such drastic legislation in one direction the pendulum might more easily be swung back to the “wet” side. it the active support of the Interests, no local option can- idate’could hope to win in Georgia today, No politician here suggests that they are upfriendly to Judge Russell, but simply doubt that they will enter fUight which they seem to have nothing whatever to gain even in case of normal victory. In a year when the new legisla ture was to be elected too, a local option victory would probably mean local option. Jt is doubtful now whether Judge Russell will even be opposed by any candidate whose main plank is pro hibition It is not believed that the issue will be a determining one.
