GOSSIP IN THE CORRIDORS
OF GEORGIA STATE CAPITOL
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS;
ATLANTA —Governor Walker la Inn and equipment. The itate In
determined to put new tax'reform
laws, in the event they are paued
by the general assembly and ratifi
ed by the people, Into operation aa
Boon ae possible.
To do this, he wilt call an ex
traordinary eeealou or the geoenl
assembly In November, 1924, a
short time after the election, so
that the new law. may Iw finally
adopted.
Tbe ch.'ef executive announced
his Intention to take this action
during tbe regular cession of the
legislature last summer and ba told
The Asaoclned Press be Intended
to carry out bte plans.
"Tax refor mis tbs greatest mat
ter before the Georgia people to
day," said Governor IFaUter. "For
several years, they have demanded
changes and I confidently believe
the legislators will enact reforms
at the special session next month.
‘The investigation conducted by
members of the tax commlaslon,
at tho'r own expense and absolute
ly free of, politics, has made a pro
found Impression on the people,
according to advltaa I am receiv
ing. The commission members, who

of the public end a targe number

“I fael that the conditions of the
sene asylum, at M^lleilgtville. has
made several pleat for more funds
on which to Operate.
The new tax laws, In the event
of passage, are also expected to
call for reorganisation of methods
of handling state fund, and this
naturally would require attention
In 1924 or 1925.
Authors of many bills Introduced
at the last session also desire a de
cision* on them by the assembly.
There am observers who'believe
that the special aeeri'on will not
definitely decide on the free school
book question, since the tax re
form bills will be constantly push
ed by their supportere. and tax
collection measures era expected to
be tecond choice for action.
Regardless of the. outcome of
measure# during tha extraordinary
session, the regular maetlng of the
assembly In 1924 la expected to
prove of more then ordinary Inter
