THE FISCAL CRISIS is
wholly new. The Georgia budget
probably, was actually
for the last time during the admin
istration of John B. Slaton. Cer
tairdy it has been unbalanced
since 1918. The more complex
juggling of revenues an d
began * m 1921, when
Hardwick “paid the debts” by dis
counting Western – Atlantic rev
enues for years ahead. Since
day, every Administration has
praticed some kind of financial
faking, with varying degrees oi
success and with varying degrees
of , frankness , with the voters.
THE RUSSEL GROUP enacted
the dictatorship act”, a hopeless
ly invalid and utterly phoney
Budget Act that would not stand
the test of court action m any
Georgia jurisdiction. This measure.
rather than the legislation enact
ed by the 1941 Assembly, i the
basis for s
the Governor’s control
over P ers °nnel in those depart
ments that, by constitutional and
legislative intent, should operate
free of executive control. Mr. Rus
sell used the measure not at all;
and, except in the 1935-36 strug
gle with the Rivers factionalists
in the Assembly, has Mr. Tal
Rivers used it constantly, but al
inadge used it excessively. Mr.
ways backed down when
with a threat of a legal test of the
measure.
THE 1937 ASSEMBLY
the lid on constitutional
ment by a piece of fancy lawmak
ing that represents the nadir ol
legislative accomplishment. It de
creed that the Appropriations Act
of that year should remain in ef
fect forever unless another one
were passed, Eminent lawyers be
lieve that, technically, this legis
lation is constitutional, but it is
violative of every principle under
lying the Anglo-American system
government, which vests control
over finances in the legislative
branch Coupled with the iniqui
“grandfather clause”, the

| BY COMPARISON, the legisla

ministration has been moderate.
The measure giving the Governor
control over !inances has been |
safeguarded by an explraton
clause, and is nothing more noi I
less than a simple diversion Dill
to rob the Highway Treasury to
run other departments. It i s f a •
.
simpler and more honestly w rded
than the hifalutin “Stabilization
measure permitting the removal oi
the Comptroller and Treasurer is
safeguarded by a requirement that
the Assembly be called into session
within thirty days. While it would
be oe desirable aes lahle that that the t.ie ollice nif -e nf ot
Comptroller be stripped of ail
miscellaneous duties and be re
stored to its original dignity and
importance and safeguarded more ! I
meticulously, the law as it exists ]
is no great threat to orderly gov
ernment.
MR. TALMADGE inherited
something like fifty million dol
lars in debts. No major depart
ment, except the Department of
Agriculture where Columbus Rob
erts left his successor a substan
tial surplus and two new market
sites as a result of the practical j
economy of an able administrator, j
had any money. All except the
Regents and a few minor boards
with negligible grants had sub
stantial debts.- The Highway
Board, after the. able and in
telligent Lint Miller had been ef
fectively stripped of power, plung
ed into a morass of debt that will
not be extinguished altogether for
five or six years.
MR. TALMADGE may be over
optimistic and too self-reliant in
believing that he can straighten
out the situation by having the
legislature appoint him, in effect,
as the head of a receivership for
the State. But until the citizens
and their General Assembly de
cide that they want constitutional
government and will either-cur
tail services voluntarily or pay the
bill for the services, they are go
ing to have a receivership. Any
day that they decide that they do
not want to have personal rule by
the Governor, they can enact a
real Budget Law, repeal the
“grandpappy stole sheep clause”,
pass a new and realistic Appro
priations Act, and get down to
business. Neither Mr. Talmadge
nor any responsible State leader
in any other faction who has been
mentioned as a candidate for Gov
ernor could be other than happy
to have the people conscious of the
State's condition and willingy to
give the executive department a
chance to administer tlie laws in
stead of make them.

MY FATHER S KINGDOM
“Thy Kingdom come.” Matthew
6:30.
Recently, while visiting a friend,
were led by special invitation
attend a prayer service being
d not far from my friend’s
ne. The service of the evening
s led by a little lady whose
s was aglow as the spirit wit
ed to her message. Our les
i today is a part of the lesson
used, which of course was the
-yer Jesus taught to Hi* disci
cs. In each step of the prayer
ere are the essential of real
ayer, but in this phrase we meet
- citizen and his King.
“Thy kingdom come” i s a pe
,ion of desire, motivated by a
nowledge that the kingdom is
.»od »nd that it may come to pass
iere and now. Just what do we un
derstand by “Thy kingdom”? A
Kingdom is that realm belonging
lo a ruling potentate and is a
realm over which he exercises au
thority. His (our Lord's) king
dom is made up of His redeemed
all doing His will and finding joy
in His service. It is also a condi
tion—a condition of joy. This
kingdom has love as its motive
and the spirit of oneness and un
ity as its basts. His kingdom
brings blessings wherever it
wields its influence. Civilization
education and ordered social life
follow its wake, but freedom from
sin and victory in the issues of life
can be found here and are much
more to be desired.
These are days when many are
crying for this or that creed
have its way. Oh that God
help us to turn from our narrow
sectarianism to an earnest prayer
that His kingdom might come
the earth. Can we pray this
er in everything?
