GOVERNOR URGED
TO VETO DOG IB
11
— i ]
Legislators Who Voted for the
Measure Now Ask That It |!
11
Be Disapproved.
Governor Bn-wn is being petitioned vig-
* CTously to veto the dog tax law, recently j
' enacted by the legislature, but it is not i
likely he will do so. . ' ;
Not only hatj the executive received nu- I i
merous letters recommending the law to’,
his disapproval, but a number of repre- . ,
sentatives who voted f<»r the law have
gone quietly to th< governor and impor- ;
tuned him to veto it
The governor is said to realize there ; 1
are two sides to the question, and that |
the approval of the new law virtually
wipes out the one now on the statute
books He also is mindful of the fact
that the practical repeal of the present
lew means the loss of something like •
$175,000 per annum to the state treasury
The governor, nevertheless, is reported |
to resent snmcwhat the attitude of those .
members who voted for the bill in the
• t house, and now urge him to veto it.
The dog tax law is. particularly in the (
rural districts, about the most unpopular
law on the statute books today. There !
are many counties in Georgia In which [
a vote in favor of a dog tax means politi
cal death, certain and sure, tn the voter.
Hence, there always are votes against n
dog tax law on the floor of the house and
senate cast by members who. In their
hearts, favor the law. but dare not go on
record that way.”
The governor Is thought not to have
any violent opinions with respect to the
law, one way or the other, and he would
like to save that $175,000 per annum to
t the state, if lie might do so without up
setting the righteous procedure of tilings.
* He likely will sign the bill as it comes to
hints
