AEMINDER 0F HETED HIEHA BOAD BUDGET CIE ATLANTA,— (AP) — Reminis cent of the famous dispute over the highway department budget, wherein Governor KEugene Tal madge called out his national guard, ousted the highway board and put his own highway board in office, the governor and G. C. Adams,- commissioner of agricul ture, stood deadlocked today over who should—and who shouldn't— be on the agriculture department payroll. A conference yesterday failed to settle the dispute. The dispute is over Adams’ dis missal of State Chemist C. Rey nolds Clarke and several of his assistants. Adams said they were dismissed for the good of the service. Politi cal circles speculated whether the dismissals might have any connec tion with the candidacy of Tom Linder, - former aide to Talmadge when he was commissioner of agricinlturo, for Adams’ post Clarke served as chemigt under Talmadge, Governor on Top Apparently, Talmadge has the upper hand in the controversy. Under the state law, the govern or must approve budgets of the various departments before salar ies and other @Xpenses can be paid. Thus far Talmadge has not given his approval to the agricul tural department budget, tying up the salaries of that branch of the state government The argument began when Adams removed from the payroll Clarke and the assistants. Gov ernor Talmorge censured the re moval of Clarke and ordered that the assistants stay on the pay roll. - : Asks Conference Commissioner Adams, charging Talmadge with usurping au thority, requested a conference with the governor and Comptroller General Willilam B. Harrison. Af ter it was held yesterday afternoon Adams and Talmadge said they had not changed their positions while Harrison had no statement to make.
