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.
