vidends,
The net result, the president
argued, would be a $620,000,000 gain
in federal revenue, with which to
support the $500,000,000 farm sub
sidy program and to amortize thel
additional cost of paying the bonus
now instead of in 1945. ]
So intense was wme discussion of
these polnts that comparatively lit
tle attention wag paid for the time
being to ther points in the presi
dent’s message. He suggested that
$500,000,000 be obtained over two
or three years by a special tax to
retrieve AAA processing levies
‘which were refunded to processors.
| Not Apply to Reserves
President Roosevelt was quick to
}declare in a presg conference late
;yesterday that the proposed taxes
on corporation profits would not
lapp]y to reserves set up to cover
' depreciation and to provide work
ing capital.
[ What he aimed at, he indicated,
| wag profit which is held by cor
porationg in the form of surplus.
He argued this was a means of
|escapting taxation and was unfair
|to small stockholders who need
{the dividend money,
‘ Assailing the president’s plan on
the house floor, Representative
| Snell of New York, minority lead
er, said “accumulated surpluses
enabled many corporations to car
ry on and give employment.”
The president, talking on this
point, said reserves would not be
| taxable and could be used in lean
|years to pay wages or dividends.
'One aim of the program, he sald, is
lto increase the velocity of money.
| He argued that many corpora
| tions, capable of declaring divi
| denda, failed to do so because the
people controlling them preferred
not to distribute profits, Their con
trole, he said, prevented anyone
else from getting anything out of
the companiea.

“The philosophy of the European

‘ “France i 3 the only democracy,

cugstody of the state funds, "
The state’s answer was expect
ed momentarily.
' Clarks Asks Funds
Numerous counties, acting on
the governor's promise to pay
highway refunding certificates
immediately, made demands on
the sgtate highway department to
day. Clarke county (Athen:) was
among the first.
A spokesman for the road bhodrd
said computations were being
made agnd that an announcement
of payments probably would be
made by night. He declined to
say how many certificates had
been presented or how much
much money was demanded.
Commenting on the Atlanta
banks’' procedure in the complex
state financial tangle, growing out
of the failure of the 1935 legisla
ture to pass an appropriation bill,
Gov. Taimadge said:
~ “All the Atlanta banks but the
Fulton National are anxious for
this money to be turned over to
‘ the state.” .
Others Ask Money
Among those presenting certifi- |
cates for payment were A. J. |
Little, Lowndes county (Valdosta)
attorney, and G. C. Dougherty,
secretary of the county comml&‘
sjon. They sought §54,000 but
were not paid immedlately as
highway department statisticians
were delayed by the rush of com
pilations. .
Although their commissions as
state depositories were revoked,
the banks—Fulton National, First
National and Citizens and South
ern—were fortified temporarily by
a court order restraining agents
of the governor from attempting
to withdraw any state funds until
after a hearing in the case gn Sat
urday. J
Judge Hugh M. Dorsey of Ful
ton superjor court signedq the or
der yesterday as the First Nation
al and the Citizeng and Southern
instituted proceedings to deter
mine who is the legal treasurer of
QGeorgla. The Fulton National
joined the other two in the action
this morning.
The suits were directed against
de facto Treasurer J. B. Daniel;
W. Carlton Mobley, the governor’s
secretary, and the ousted treasur
er, George B. Hamilton.
Talmadge Retalliates
Governor Talmadge retaliated
by removing from the list of state
depositories the three Atlanta
banks and two others which have
opposed his de facto treasury set
up—the Bank of Tifton and the
First National Bank of Marietta.
This move was interpreted -in
some quarters as a scheme for
blocking the banks’ court action.
The Fulton National Bank of
Atlanta, filed a petition today
identical with that submitted by
the other institutions. State de
posite of $1082,661.56 were affect
ed, the petition recited.
The Citizens Bank of Vienna
said through {ts president, J. B.
Walton, it would not release state
funds until a court ruling is is
sued,
The local institutions are hold
ing more than $2,500,000 in state
‘money which the governor seeks
to add to some $10,000,000 he says
he has accumulated from other
sources, including a large amount
of highway department funds.
In demanding again that the
banks release this money TTal
madge took wcecasion to inform
eritics of his dictatorship” that
he has on hand sufficient cash to
operate the state.
Giving emphasis to this state
ment, the highway board announ
ced g $1,250,000 contract letting on
road and bridge projects for March
20. Opponents of the governor
have declared that highway work
would be curtailed this summer.
~ Legislators continued their dis
‘gusslon of propesals to convenea
special session of the general as
‘lemhly to pass an appropriations
bill. Talmadge termed the effort
' “foolish.”
From several sources in the
state and membens on the Georgia
congressional delegation came re
ports that a move is under con
sideration to obtain the release of
federal road funds, tied up because
i°’ the financia] impasse. Direct
1y to counties and municipalities.
COLUMBUS ADDS DEMAND
COLUMBUS, Ga. — (#) — The
city of Columbus has added its
demand to that of Richmond and
Clarke counties that $17,000,000 in
federal highway funds, tied up
due to Gov, Talmadge's financial
“dictatorship” be released direct
to cities and counties of the state
The Columbus city commission
urged Georgia's' representatives in
congress to sponsor legislation al
'loca.ting highway and other feder
' a] funds direct to cities and coun
} ties. %
.~ The commission resolution said
the action was taken due to “un
certainty and unsettled conditions
\m the executive departments of
} Georgia.”
. W. H. Sherman, clerk of Rich
‘mond county’s commission, said
‘freoenfly Senators George and Rus
'selland Congressman Paul Brown.
‘had replieq favorably to that
county’s suggestion that federal
road money be sent 4direct to the
local ‘communities, lest projects
'now under way be shut down. |
A similar move was reported in
Athens by Tate Wright, clerk of
the Clarke county commission, and
secretary of the State Asmciation!

today reported no action had heen|

- At High School Here
~ Thursday Morning

instructor and one-time gangster
now aligned on the side of law and
order, will speak to a group of
Junior and Senior High school stu
dents Thuraday morning at 11:30
o’clock in the Senior High school

Mr. Dittmore, who for eight years
was engaged in all of the varied
underworld rackets, speaks from
experience. After serving nine
yvears in prison and doing many
stretches in ‘“‘the hole,” or solitary

saying of “you can’t beat the law”
is true.

fearful end he has so far escaped.
In his "police schools” he exposeg
the present day rackets practiced
on an unsuspecting public from the
viewpoint of a racketeer, and ex
plains the latest methods in police
work. Letterg from all over the
country from prison wardens, police
chiefs and school heads testify to
‘his ability as an interesting anc
