, Commendation of the services
rendered by U14 ted States Sena
tor William J. Harris during his
Initial term in the senate is con
tained in a letter to newspaper
editors of Georgia from Colonel
John Temple Giaves, prominent
Georgian and nationally known
journalist..
.Mr. Graves, who was formerly
connected with The Atlanta Con
st Vution. has for the past 20 years
written for leading newspapers and
‘magazines of the country.
In his letter regarding Senator
Harris, ho reviews the record of
the senior senator from Georgia
and defines him is "one of the
most useful men who has ever
served this state In the great as
sembly."
PREDICTED
Mr. Graves' letter j^n full fol
lows:
To the Editors of Georgia: When
Senator William J. Harr’.s entered
the senate of the United States,
after his wonderfully rapid rise
i from private life, I wrote for one
j of the current magazines a predic
tion that when his term was ended,
j lie. would be written«!» the recorus
•as perhaps not,the most eloquent.
, but certainly as one of the most
' practical and useful men who had
■served Georgia In that great as-
‘ sembly.
i The results of Senator Harris*
i lltist term, now two-third com
pleted', have abundantly vindicated
. niy prediction.
I He has had four yers <n the
senate. Durin gthls time he has
had four different colleagues and
today he Is hie senior senator
'from Georgia. He can soberly
! challenge the record, that, within
'these years he has secured 1 as
; much or more for Geprgla—for
' Georgia men and women—for
Georgia Interests, as any previous
senator has done since Joe Brown
{ utilized- his "Judgment' and his I
' tact In Hhe service of the state. 11
congratulate myself that ! am not
a bod judge of men.
Senator Harris has won the hon
or of a membership on the great
appropriations committee of the
senate which handles all bills to
provide money, for the government
under the budget system. He is
the one senator on that committee
from the entire southeast, and ex
cepting Senator Owen, of Okla
homa. he Is the Only southern mem
ber of the committee from North
Carolina to New Mexico.
He Is a member and In several
cases the ranking member of six
subcommittees which • actually
draft the bills, the war depart
ment, postoffice department, in
cluding federal aid for good roads,
the department of agriculture, the
department of commerce, depart?
ment of the interior and the legia-
lafve establishment*. The com
mittees of Immigration and tend-
troes complete his important as
signments.
Through alert and active service
the senator has been largely In
strumental In assisting the vari
ous raiftary activities ■ In Georgia
with adequate appropriations, par
ticularly at F\>rt Banning. The riv
ers and harbors of Georgia hav>„
received large allotments from th«F: ,
government. Such Important work
