THE NEWNAN HERALD, NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1921.
SENATOR JONES MAKES SENSA
TIONAL CHARGES AGAINST
GOVERNOR.
Atlanta Constitution, 7th inst.
Charging tlint by “ adroit maneuvers
and hydraulic pressure" of Gov, Hard-
wick’ii machine, tho General Assembly
has laid further tax burdens upon the
people; dperensod, appropriations, and
has refused full appropriations for Con
federate veterans, Hemitor John 11. .Toucb
issued a statement Saturday night pro-
dieting that a storm of protest will arise
from taxpayers.
The Senator clmrneterixcil tho Gnvor
nor’s program ns a “slick political
scheme to starve tho State’s Institutions
for n year or so; lionp a sizable balance
in the Treasury, and then place tho
blamo for the, high taxes on tho General
Assembly. ’ ’
Tho Scnntor stated that the. taxes on
fertiliser, amusements, gasoline, carbon
ic gas and others have boeu enacted
under a “fnlso guise.”
“To burden the people of Goorgln
with hdnvy oxtrn taxes under tho false
guise of ‘luxury taxes’,” ho said, "in
this extraordinary yoar of financial de
pression and suffering among nil classes,
and to couplo this burden with a mort
gage of $2,(500,000 upon thti State Rond,
and at the snmo time to nctnally cut
appropriations of pinny of our educa
tional institutions', while holding n deaf
oar to tho now elnss of Confederate pen
sioners, would form an outrageous trian
gle of Impositions upon tho people.
“Howovor, it looks like that is ox-
nctly what is about to bo done, despite
Gov. Hardwick’s assurances during ids
campaign. The administration machin
ery was throwii into full operation dur
ing tho past wcok, nnd a now style of
treatmont of tho ‘door peopul’ is bo-
ing ground out ruthlessly.
“We know that tho proposition to re
alize $2,500,000 from a mortgage on tho
W. & A, Railroad was accepted by some
of us, bad ns it wns, ns «n emergency
method to avoid placing an extra burden
of taxation upon tho poop)o during this
year, To do this and then run In a
vast, complicated schomo of special tax
es on everything, from tho chnutnuquas
of tho little towns up to tho gasoliuo
which are necessities In their alroady
jiml truck and the thousands of working
pcoplo of the State burn in tho cars
which nro necessities in tliolr alrondy
threadbare affairs, is unthinkable.
“To out appropriations of common
schools anil to iguoro any pnrt of our
obligation to tho Confedarato pensioners
of Georgia would be bnd enough, with
out extraordinury tnxos this year,
“To i-iiii tho chance of involving tho
future of tlio State Rond by incurring
a mortgage of $2,500,000 in order to
take earo of appropriations without im
posing,extra tnxos in this yoar of finan
cial depression would ho bnd enough.
But fur tho administration, by adroit
maneuvers and hydraulic pressure to
put into effoct tho triangular imposition
of big extra taxes, and a out in appro
priations for common schools, colleges,
nml indifference to tho claims of the
new class of Confederate pensioners, cor-
tuinly must result in u tremendous re
volt in public opinion.
“There is no way to calculate the
height of the storm of protest which
is bound to arise fron the public v.lioii
the financial program which is. nmv lin
ing railroaded throng! becomes known
to tho peuplo nnd begins to oporato
ngnbist them in every nook nml cor
ner of tho State,
“An astounding example of the olovor
maneuvers which promise discriminatory
results is found in the fact that a bill
which passed the Senate Friday would
provided indirectly mi increase from
$35,000 to $100,000 in funds for the
State Market Bureau. This is tho
department Which hns been, so con
spicuous in connection with the ad
ministration of tho Commissioner of Ag
riculture, Hint well-known guntlonma who
WSB so active in tho capital lobbies
against funds for farm demonstration
work last week. This is an increase of
nearly 200 per cent., by nn indiroot,
shrewd method for Commissioner
Brown's market-bureau, which tho far
mers will have to pay, ami n cut of n
quarter of 'a mollion dollars in the com
mon school fund, with a -reduction of
ten per cent, in appropriations for high-
cr education mid other important insti
tutions of the State, and utter imllffor*
aiice to the profound needs of the new
elans of Confederate pensioners. They
are making promises of taking care of
the new class of pensioners next year,
it is true, but they decline to wait un-
taxo'« U!lt 5 '° ar t0 imi,0 “ e special
And to think that the Governor 1ms
-boonretojodta ‘ho process through
which Ous remarkable financial program
(f) lias been developed is beyond possi
bility for anybody who 1ms been around
the capital amf has seen tho Governor’s
activities in the corridors of both houses,
machine lias boon working perfectly
during the Inst few days. It has been
in full evidence.
“Now, of course, it is proper fo"
good Governor to cxorelse all of his in
fluence! towards having the Legislature
work in Imrmony with sound ideas which
22 '""y advance for tho benoflt of the
tstnto s finances and public service,” con
tinues tho - Senator,
“That admission emplinsizeB the fact

bos been powerful in tho outrageous pro
gram of appropriations and taxes which
stares ua in the face witth a dark throat,
or certain visits of tho Governor and his
coterie to the legislative halls have fail
ed to result in enough information con
cerning what was going on for him to
offer a protest.
“The network of legislation which is
being thrown nrounfi the unsuspecting
people is too complicated to result in
n quick protest. It Is too vast to be
comprehended at once. But when with-
' nonth » «'« People begin to
feel the sting of the imposition, with
its discriminations ami incnnsisteucies
there will bo a storm. It is,inevitable.
