Judge Flynt’s
Two Points
Atlanta, Aug. 27--Secretary of State
George H. Carswell today drew the
public record on Judge Jas. J Flynt,
who is opposing Mr. Carswell for elec
tion Secretary Carswell said:
“My friend and opponent, Judge
Jas. J. Flynt, we find, has a wonder
fullj’ changeable mind on two things
he Now stands for. In his race for the
office I am now holding Judge Flynt
is bati g his request for -support on
two points, and these only. From his
own letters these two points are taken.
The first, is.
“ ‘I favor the distribution of automo
bile tags through local officers who,
I feel, can do the work just as efficient
ly as it can be done from the capitol,
and at the same time increase the emo
luments of the local officers handling
them ’
That's a strange claim for Judge
Flynt to be making Now, when just
a year ago, in the <Jenera) Assembly,
Judge Flynt was strongly opposed to
that very thing and prevented the
Legislature passing a bill that would
have made it. possible.
Judge Flynt ; s retiring from the Leg
islature. though that body would have
to change the law to do what he Now
wants done. The'secretary of the State
has no power to change the law. The
journal of the Houseof Representativ
es of 192?, of which the judge was a
prominent member, shows that Repre
sentative Rutland of Lee introduced
Bill No 102, to provide that automo
bile tags be sold by the clerks of court
in the counties of the state. The
(from column above)
what the judge NOW stands for,
‘lf my friend the judge has so
completely changed Jiis mind from
last June and July to this date on
his only two points, how do we know
he will not change back between now
and next July?”
"The whole thing in the judge’s
campaign is simply that the judge
wants my job; that’s all.

bill was referred to Judge Flynt’s
committee, the committee on public
highways; June 28th. On June 29th
Representative Pope of Walker in
troduced Bill No. 149, to provide
that automobile tags be sold by the
I
ordinaries of the counties- It was
referred to Judge Flynt’s committee.
The record shows that Judge Flynt’s
committee ch'oked both these bills to
death and wouldn’t even let them
get to a vote on the floor of the
House, Either of them would have
out the sale of tags through a county
office.
, "The second and only other point
on which Judge Flynt asks that he
be elected also is taken from his let
ter. Ue says:
‘I further favor depositing the
funds received frtm the sale of these
tags in local batiks and leaving
it there until it is withdrawn by the
Comptroller General.’
"Last June and July Judge Flynt
fought against that very thing, as his
record'shows. Representatives Mur
rah and Neill introduced Bill No. 2
in the House June 24th, “To rtquire
all revenue of the State to be paid
1 into the State Treasury-’’ The bill
was referred to the committee of
which Judge Flynt is vice-chairman
where it was freely debated and on
July 7 Judge Flynt’s committee re
ported the bill for passage with sev
eral amendments Judge Flynt's com
mittee had made. On July 14 the
bill came on for debate and final pas
sage by the House. It was passed
and Judge Flynt voted for it. The
vote was 142 to 1, It is a law today
by Judge Flynt’s help and prevents
