Second Day’s Session
(By Associated Press.) »
ATLANTA—The State Highway Department was
under fire in the early hours of Thursday’s session of
the House. '
Representative Stewart of Atkinson County, was de
nied unanimous consent for the consideration of a resolu
tion which would provide for the appointment of a com
mittee of twelve from the House and five from the Sen
ate to examine the books of the department and report
back to the House.
Representative R. Toombs Du-
Bose in a wire to the Banner-Her
ald Thursday morning stated that
the handling of his resolution on
the appointment of a tax commis
sion by the legislature Wednesday
was misrepresented by reporters
who covered the house events tba
opening day.
These reports stated his resolu
tion was tabled by a large major
ity, Riving the inference that io
was opposed by practically the sa
tire house and that he insisted
I upon its passage.

Thursday morning that the action

adopted, that' it would have re juir-
t-d a two-thirds majority to pa»s
nnd after a conference with Speak
