respectable and otherwise law
abiding citizens are violating this
particular provision of the law all
the time.
“It ought not to be a crime to
have any quantity, no matter how
small, in one’s possession. It ought
to be a crime to have in one’s pos*
session such an amount as to show
upon its face an intention to traf
fic in whiskey. 1 do not pretend
to say whether the limit for per
sonal use should be a quart, a
gallon or five gallons.

have proper enforcement upon all

Heretofore, Georgians hare been
content to take very little Interest In
the national prohibition discussions.
There was no use arguing for light
The man with the “T In front of wines and beers, when Georgia’s law
was so tight that nothing could get in
or out legally. The governor has
opened the way for a discussion that
brings the matter down to Georgia, to
our people and our Legislature. When
The female of the species is more we go that far there Is something do-
deadly than the male, but not with ing, something that will put another
light on the whole matter.
Undoubtedly Mr. Hardwick has pro
pared the way for some stirring times
in the Btate. The result will probably
be null and void, as far as the holies
of the promoters are concerned. Geor
gians haven't gone far enough back
ward to believe that tbe wedge should
be opened. Georgians saw what laxi
ty of law meant In greater laxity of
enforcement and they had to clamp
down as tight as human agencies
could Invent for tbe purpose of pre
venting a wholesale outcropping ol
law violations.
Hardwick Is opening the way for a
home brew prohibition contest, some
thing that Georgia has been freed of
for several years. Wo hope It won't
be buffeted about and bandied as s
political shuttlecock by aspiring poli
ticians, as was done In some Instances

more apparent as the fatal day nears.
HARDLY POSSIBLE
If it were possible or feasible, we
wish that the same pressure could bo
exerted on certain people to save as
was done during the war, when they
were urged to buy Liberty Bonds, War
Stavlngs Stamps, and other govern
ment.
We do not intimate that the billions
invested in those channels is noces-
sary or feasible now, but we do be
lieve that the incentive to save In
stilled into the minds and hearts of
many Americans during those cam
paigns has borne abundant fruit and
proven to be quite an item for good.
Many folks can save if they will. They
always manage to save a little under
pressure. The only trouble is that the
pressure does not exlBt and therefore
the savings are not as generally die
tributed as they might be for the gen
eral good.
A MATTER OF COMPLAINT
There seems to be some agitation
throughout the Btate to make a law
paying witnesses summoned to court
a per diem during the time they are
actually required to attend the ses
sion. It has been long a matter of
Intense complaint on the part of many
people that they are summoned to
court to testify and kept there for sev
eral days, perhaps, and then not used
but summoned to be and appear at the
next term.
Lots of these fellows have to give
up their business Interests and Bpend
the time at the county site, where they
are forced to buy meals and have other
expenses, and sometimes even have to
take their mules trom their work to
go and coma They don’t receive h
cent of money for their services in the
county and they lose a lot of time,
quite often needlessly. Paying them
would probably reduce the number
summoned materially .if the prosecu
tor or the defendant had to pay them a
per diem of three or four dollars while
they arc ready to answer the call.
OPENING THE WAY
Governor Hardwick's pronounce
ments on the prohibition question will
undoubtedly open the way for the dis
cussion of tbe modification of the
Georgia prohibition law. The governor
is reported to have uttered these words
in Atlanta, at a meeting of prohibition
officers:
"I fully realize the storm of pro
test I will bring upon mystelf with
my next statement, but I must say
that personally I believe we have
gone too far.
"I do not believe the prohibition
laws now on the statute books of
Georgia, or at least certain fea
tures of those can ever be en
forced Impartially and equally
among tbe high and the low. the
rich and poor and no law should
be enforced otherwise,” the execu
tive said.
“The law which makes it a
crime to have whiskey In ones
possession Is openly and generally
violated. I candidly believe that
