Electric Company, to build a high power
line on Hill street and Milton avenue,
and the board revoked the electrician's
permit.
Complaints of property owner- di
rected ipe attention of the board to
the situation The Central Georgia
Transmission Company had a force
working day and night - n the street,
erecting a 6t>u>oO volt line. .1 II Gal
house. a r< sio'-nt of iiili street, dis
charged his pistol twice last Thursday
night to frighten away the workmen
wjten they disturb his sleep. He was
fined by the recorder, but Immediate
ly there was a genera! protest from the
citizens against the building "I the line
along their street. Mr. Turner himself
said the high voltage wire would be
dangerous .
It wa- found th ly authority
to build the line on those stieets was
obtained from the city electrician, who
consulted only the engineer of the
Southeastern I'nderwi Iters Association
Such an authority is equal Io a tian
< hise. and rests only w ith the council.
The board immediately revoked the
permit of the company The company
must get the right to proceed with the
work by taking up the matter with the
board.
An injunction suit lias been filed to
stop the work, but this was discon
tinued when the court was informed of
the action of the city board.
City Electrician Turner declared the
board was trying to put all tile trouble
it could on him. Tim city had granted
the company the right to build such a
line on Lakewood avenue Mr. Tur
ner said he transferred the permit to
other streets becaii.se Im thought it was
a better route.
He said any line carrying more than
11,000 volts was dangerous and that
some of the lines of the Georgia Hail-j
way and Power Company, the company
that absorbed the Georgia Railway ;
and Electric Company. should be con- i
demned.
The board. John E. Met'h Hand, W. |
B Cummings fine chief, and R M.j
Clayton, chief of construction, decided;
not to go into this matter nt this time. |

his nominations to the state board of ed

that the Smith nominations were made
to fill real vacancies and were not ad
Interim appointments, and the apparent
strength on this view with members of
the upper house, was largely responsible
for the governor s action in withdrawing
his nominations He declined today to
discuss his future action In the matter
'l'he name of Walter Steed, appointed
by Governor Broun to succeed the late
Judge Lawson, was withdrawn so that
the senate u ill have but three names to

SLEUTHING WITH AID
OF DICTOGRAPH NOT
FAVORED BY POLICE
t'hief of Police Beavers Is not much
in favor of the dictograph as a gatherer
of evidence. He said so today.
"The trouble with such evidence," as.
sorted the chief, "is that it is usually
not admissible. Telephone conversa
tions are not admitted unless identifi
cation of the parties talking is abso
lute, and so with the dictograph. Or
dinarily the stenographer recording dic
tograph notes can not identify the per
sons or voices sufficiently to make the
evidence worth anything.''
A dictograph agent called on Chief
Beavers recently In aa effort to place
one of the instruments with the local
department, but the chief had substan
tially the above objections and accord
ingly refused to buy. i
