Talk of Session
Legislature Leaders Declare
Representative’s Speech Best
in History
Atlanta,, Ga., August 34.—The
most eloquent speech in the annals
of the Georgia legislature of 1925
was made by Dr. W. C. Wiliams, Jr.
14th, who gained the floor at one
of the night sessions to speak on
n bill pending at the time.
As he yielded the floor and re
sumed his seat, veteran legislators
were unanimous in their pr-'ise of
him and his remarks, declaring
them without a peer in all their leg
islative experience.
“I enjoyed the address of the
senator from the 14th more than
any I have ever heard,” declared
Senator W. P. Sapp, 43rd.
More sense to Senator William’s
speech than any made during this
sesison of the legislature, at least, •
declared Senator J. D. M. McGregor
15th.
‘‘His eloquence was compelling,
and he handled his subjec" in the
most finished manner it las ever
been my privilege to hear" observed
Senator H. L. I). Hughes, 21st.
“I do not believe that there ever
has been a more powerful address
in the history of Georgi i general

was the verdict of Senator Gordon
Knox, 3rd.

by its rich humor.
For a fundamental theme it has
what is always regarded as the
most sure-fire foundation for a play

TWO KINDS OF
TAX REDUCTION
BEING URGED
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—The
Democrats’ fight on the Republi
cans’ tax reduction program next
winter won’t be against reduction,
but against the kind of reduction—
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon’s
kind—that it’s considered certain
the Republicans will advocate.

tion. That’s bound to be popular
with everybody. The party that
fought it would be doing the worst
thing imaginable for itself.
~on the other hand, the Democrats
figure it will be extremely popu
lar to oppose reduction of a sort
that wil benefit mainly very rich
men and big corporations.
That Secretary Mellon wants re
duction to begin at the top this
time there isn’t any question.
He’s outspoken about it.
He’s willing to elt the small fry
have a little of the gravy but he
wants the big- helping to go to the
sur-taxpayers.
He was euchered out of having
his way last year but it appears
to be generally agreed among the
Republican managers that he’s to
have his turn at the next sesison of
Congress— provided, of course,
they’re able to give it to him.
It’s no cinch that they will be
able to. They probably can manage
it in the House of Representatives,
but the Senate’s doubtful—more
than doubtful. The Democrats will
be against the Mellon plan and so
will most of the insurgents—not
only the chronic insurgents but al
so the occasional oneSy
A Senator from a state where
suktaxpayers are strong may see

the common pee-pul. The latter
are in ti vast majority even in such
states, but the capitalists frequently
make up for their numerical infer
