Among the many problems that will facei the com- inc session of the Georgia legislature is the. question of what is the state going to do for ‘^^‘vGeorida Georgia. One thing stands out prominently Georgia must adequately support the State Umversity or the univfcrsity will be gradually starved *° d ®? th V, ni Georgia is not going to adequately support tf je Um-. .versity for the future, then perhaps it were beat to withdraw all interest in such an institution and turn it over entirely to private interests—make it a gut to its alumni and place entirely its future and its man agement outside the control o£ the state". However revolutionary such a suggestion may seem, it would be infinitely better for the state to pursue such a course than to continue the treatment from' year to year of gradual starvation that it has long meted out to the university. Here are some of the outstanding facts of the sit uation that confronts the State University. Rs on* rollmcnt has increased from 531 in 1910 to 1,550 in . 1922, and yet the state has made no effort to meet the demands of this greatly increased enrollment either in proper increase of maintenance funds or in providing the nicciBsary buildings .to house and to teach this large student, body. Manifestly such a condition cannot continue, longer. , As to Georgia’s support of her State University we . . find that last year she appropriated for maintenance of both the State Agricultural College and the Uni versity at Athens the sum of $165,000. Compare this pitiful-sum with whht-other southern states are/loing fofttheir universities. ' Here they are : Virginia ? 661,000 . North Carolina 1,000,000 ’ South' Carolina . - . 477,000 Florida 400,000 Kentucky 89(k000 Texas.. ... .. .. i. 739,000 Louisiana .. .. .. 860,000 Maryland .. .. .. 671,000 . Arid Georgia foots the. list with the meagre and entirely inadequate appropriation for yearly main tenance of $165,000. Boys and girls form every one of the 160 counties in the state save one-are in attendance this year at the State University. The high schools arc turning, . out more and'more students each year who are de manding an education at the State University. Un- ; less proper funds for maintenance are granted by the state and unless additional buildings are pro vided, these hundreds and thousands of Georgia boys and girls will be Henlcd these higher educa tional advantages by the state of Georgia, which are, however, furnished by dll'pf our sister states of the south to their o\vn bpys and .girls. Certainly no more important and pressing question can come before the legislature at this session than the prob lems of what the state is going to do for the increas- ; ipa thousand* of her own' children who are clamor ing for the advantages and.benefits of a college edu cation and training at the-State University. For years Georgia has appropriated more money than she has raised by taxation; Many of her .ap propriations have not been paid because the state treasury has not had the money with which to do so. A revision of the taxation system of the state must be had in order to raise more revenue. When this is done, then.perhaps, the legislature will recognize the debt it owes to the 'high sehool graduates of the state who in increasing numbers each year are d tta* 8t th ° d00n ° l ^ Stflt ° Unfversit y for ... ..... of Athens’ contributions yto I instead of being 1 out that he had Atlanta who has helped to build!just received a supply.

No one can ever tell just what a jury will do and when least expected*a verdict of guilty is found and often when an acquital is expected all expecta tions of the courts and lawyers are upset. A few days ugo, in city court a man was on trial for violating the prohibition law. The evidence seemed conclusive as to his innocence, but a verdict of guil ty was returned.
