Ousted Commissioner Mc
" Donald Plans Bill to Curb
Governor's Power
ATLANTA, Ga.—~AP)—Permis
sion to file ouster proceedings
against Ben T. Huiet of Atlanta,
his successor, was asked of Supe
rior Court Judge E. E. Pomeroy
here Tuesday by Jule W. Felton,
of Montezuma, one of the five
suspended members of the Georgia
Publie Service commission.
Under court procedure in a quo
warranto action, the ‘petition is
first submitted to the judge and
if received by him is.turned over
to the clerk of the court and filed.
The date for a hearing is then
set. i
The petition cites Huiet to show
cause by what right he holds a
position on the commhfsion for
merly held by Felton.
Felton said the petition was
submitted to Judge Pomeroy in
conference along with a request
for formal permission to file. He
said that if the petition is denied
he will carry the fight to the
State Supreme court. |
Felton's petition atacks the val
idity of an old law under which
the governor suspended Felton and
the other four commissioners un
til the next session of the gen
eral assembly. The next regular
session is in 1935.
The petition read:
“Relator (Felton) contends that
the above act of 1878 purporting
to give right of suspension to the
governor, if unrepealed, 1s viola
tive of and repugnant to Article
three, Paragraph eight, Section
seven, of the Constitution of Geor
gia providing ‘no law or ordinance
shall pass which refers to more
than one subject matter or con
tains matter different from what
is expressed in the title thereof.
Should Be Ousted
“The title of any act of the leg
islature is for the purpose of giv
ing notice. to 'he exact subject
matter intended to be covered by
the bill and in this act there is
no reference in the title, directly
or indirectly, that the alleged
Yight of suspension would appear
In the bill. For this reason the
order of the governor is negatory
and the ouster of respondent
(Huiet) should occur.”
Felton said the act also was
void in that it purported to give
the right of suspension of aun elec
tive office without judicial hearing
and provision to defend himself in
the courts and that it was in con
flict again with the State Consti
ution.
“Under the law of this state an
tlective officer holds the title to
his office unless impeached under
::* law,” the petition read sur
er
It may be a public trust; the
salary may be forgotten; the right
10 earn it and colleet it may be
lgnored, but the right to protect

Addressing Georgia Masons, Nix Asserts
“Political-Climbers” Bear Watching; Is

INDIAN SPRINGS, Ga. — Abit
Nix of Athens today sounded a
warning against a.conflict of pur
pose between federal, local and
state #Svernments which would
defeat the aims of the rational re
covery administration.
Speaking to a large crowd of
Georgians at the S'xth District
Masonic association’s convention
here, Nix urged Masonry to exem
plify its “time-honored interest r

people rather than the tool of po
lit'cal climbers.”
Crand Master W. B. Clark, of
Savannah and B. R. Turpin, of
Stockbridge, district worshipful
master, were among the speakers.
Pinta lodge of Barnesville, was
host to the meeting. A barbecue
was served at noon.
Sees Conflict
“I -see,” said Nix, “a conflict be
tween the purposes of the federal
recovery administration and the
attitued of many local and state
governments which, in my opinion,
will do great harm to the efforts
of our president to restore a great
er measure of prosperity. 1 refer
to the program of inflation which
the federali government is pursuing
on the one hand, and the program
of deflation which many local and
state governments are pursuing on
the other hand. Our taxes have
