A Comfort and to the Recipient of Fell Slippers ltS HOES "We will not determine for a few days longer whether an extra session of the legislature Is required to protect the rights ofjthe state.” This was the only statement made by OoVernor Smith Tuesday afternoon ut 12: to o'clock, following an extended conference with Attorney Genera! Hart and Hon. Boykin Wright, of Augusta. The conference was held over the back tax decision of the United States supremo court. It has been a question as to whether or not the language of this decision made It necessary to se- cure a legislative act to provide the state with proper machinery for col- lecting such taxes, or the fault oould be correcteddn the courts. The opinion has been thoroughly dissected by Judge Hart nhd Ur. Wright, but It Is probable that some question has arisen requiring, further consultation. i • It was ascertained Tuesday morning that while In Washington recently Gov ernor Hmlth made arrangements to se. t ure the missing Confederate rolls from the war department practically with- out cost to the state. This will be accomplished on a reci procity basis. The government la pub lishing the records as rapidly as pos- xlbte. Much valuable data Is missing, and Governor Smith arranged for this state to furnish this matter, while the government will supply the missing Confederate rolls for the service. This clears up a vexed problem, and makes possible the completion of the Con federate rolls of the state.
