NAME MISS AKIN - CUMMINGS’ AIDE (Continued from page one.) ° progressed so rapidly that she was admitted to the Georgia bar in December, 1917, the day before her 20th birthday. Enters Law Firm In 1920 she becime asso-ciated with the law firm of Hitch, Den= mark and Lovett, and rqmained there until 1925, when she openéd her own office. i From that time she began bui:i;. ing up political prestige, sel'vz'_‘ first as secretary. of the Equal Suffrage Party of Chatham couns ty, secretary of the League ct} Women Voters, as vice-president of the National Democratic Vic-‘ tory club in 1928, and in other! positions of trust. In 1928 she campaigned throughout Georgia for Altred E. Smith, the Demo cratic nominee. . With the advent of Richard B. Russell, jr, as a candidate for governor, Miss AKin jtook up the cause again, and succeeded in or ganizing nuwnerous counties for him. Russell, who is now United States senator from Georgia, was elected, and Miss Akin was ap pointed secretary of the state Democratic committee in recogni ‘tion of her work. ;3he served in that capacity un til Governor Russell was elected to the United States senate last year, and played an important part in his campaign for the “higher office. An ardent supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt long before the Dem=~ ocratic convention in Chicago last kummer, she took wup his cause ‘after the nomination. She was summoned to the national head ‘quarters in New York early in the campaign. . | Went Campaigning ¢ - 4 "~ Chairman James A. Farley of the national Democratic commit~ \tee sent her out in the field. First ‘she went to West Virginia, then to Pennsylvania and Ohio, and finally into Michigan, normally Republican states. For tv.o months she spoke to and organ ized women voters. When the lelection returns were completed, all but Pennsylvania were in the Democratic column. g Returning to Savannah to her reglected law practice, Miss Akin accepted chairmanship of the wo men'’s 'division ofythe Citizens Co operative Party, which won a city election by a large margin last December. $1: But Miss . I.:n has many other talents along with the political. Attractive and feminine in the ‘true sense of the word, she is a ’member of the Presbyterian >chm‘ch, the Savannah Business ‘and Professional Women's Lea ‘gue, the Savannah Women's Fed ‘eration. She is also a fine sports woman, an excellent swimmer, and ‘devotee of other outdoor sports. Her dancing is of the best and she ranks with the front rank bridge players of tu; city. Her appointment met with widespread [pubnc approval. * ° DR. B. L. DOWLING Chiropodist Now Permanently Located at Princess Boot Sho%pe, Phone 651 No Charge for Examinations. See Him for Foot Treatments TO CARRY CASE TO SUPREME COURT IF PETITION IS DENIED (Continued Frcm Fage One) While the injury to it may not enrich the magistrate who takes it, it leaves a poverty in the heart of the injured officer which can not be repaired and it is a futile farce to portray a priceless Con stitution as standing the cham pion of a dirty dollar and con fessing its impotency to protect an honest citizen against the de spoilation of his reputation and character. For this reason the governor's order is void and the ouster of respondent should be decreed.” Charges Dictatorship While plans for the new Public Service commission’s operations were being laid, Walter R. Mec- Donald of Augusta, member of the old commission whiech the gov ernor removed from office after a protracted hearing, announced he would seek an amendment to the state Constitution to *“abolish a dictatorship a governor holds be tween sessions of the legisla ture.” The amendment McDonald said, would provide that three-fourths of the legislators might call a special session without a call from the gevernor. In Augusta where the former commissioner is practicing law, he said he was preparing the proposed amend ment for introduction at the 1935 session of the assembly. He said he also would take his case before the voteérs as a candidate for the coinmission In the next election. . : FILES NEW SUIT ATLANTA, Ga.—(AP)—Gover nor Talmadge has completed a three-man Highway board for the second time since he ousted two members who refused to fire en gineers when . ordered. L W B ‘V&ﬁburﬂ,’ farmer and banker of Oglethorpe, Ga, in Ma i\con county, was named late Mon ‘day to the board vacancy result ing from the promotion of Jud P.' Wilhoit from a member of the ‘road body to chairman of the ‘Public Service commission. | The governor acted almost im ' mediately after ousted Chairman 'J. W. Barnett filed quo warranto iproceedin:s in Haralson superior .court against Chairman J. J. | Mangham. Barnett seeks to un ;seat Mangham and get his old job back. ' Governor : Talmadge had previ ously intimated that the selectlon‘ 'or the third commissioner might be delayed indefinitely as a legal ' move and when the time came he would aet. Barnett's action paved the way for the naming of ‘Wil burn. Political observers say the gov ernor’s appointment of Wilburn assures the operation of the High way board under a commissioner 11'egardless of legal results. Only ‘one proceeding, legal authorities have said, can be brought by the ousted commissioners, W. C. Ve ' reen and Barnett, in an effort to get their pests: back. Such proceedings must be filed by Barnett against his successor, Mangham, and by Vereen against Judge Max Mcßae, his successor. ' There would be no one to bring proceedings against Wilburn. rThere o 'speculatlon as to whether Vereen will seek to oust Mcßae, §ir After ' the governor had ousted Barnett and Vereen by the insti {ution of martial law, the High way department operated under a ‘single commissioner—Jud Wilhoit —until a short time ago. It was not until after a federal court had twice denied attempts ‘of Barnett and Vereen to regain their jobs that Talmadge selected Mangham and Mcßae to serve with Wilhoit. Then when he suspended all members of the Public Service commission, Governor Talmadge ‘selected Wilhoit for that body and he was named chariman, leaving the Highway commission a two man affair until late Monday. » The proceedings against Mang- Aho.:sa were brought in his home countx _of Haralson, as required by .Jaw. The hearing was set for August 2 before Judge James R. Hutcheson at Buchanan. . Should Vereen bring the same action against Mcßae the papers would be filed in Telfair superior court at Mcßae. Governor Talmadge said Wil burn had never held public office before. He supported the governor during his campaign for the gov ernorship last year. Adventurer, Secret War Corespondent, Blindfold - Artist Will Perform (Continued from page one.) pondent for the Hearst newspa pers before the World war in South America, Captain Perkins was , a member of the Typical Tropical Tramps, a newspaper re porter’s association in South America.
