IB.—Senators came to tho Capitol to-day prepared to remain on the job until November. following the Indorsement by the Democratic caucus last night of Pres ident Wilson’s demand for currency legislation at this session of Con gress. Republican Senators have publi lv refused to agTee to a date on whicn to vote on the tariff bill. The sole condition on which they have agreed heretofore, in cloakroom talk, to vote on the tariff bill before September l has been that the specter of currency legislation be driven away. But the Senate majority has knuck led down'to Pre.sllent Wilson on this question, and the Republicans will be able to dictate the speed wi.'n which legislation will be handled. Progressive Republicans will have an inning, urging th* adoption of the inheritance tax and tariff commis sion amendments to the tariff bill. The discussion of these win require i week or more. Extended discuss! of the income tax section is promised also. The informal arrer ment to go ahead with currency legislation means. It is predicted, that the tariff bill will not be disposed of b "ore October 1. Cur rency' legislation will require, accord ing to Senate prophets, at least a month after.

Men and Religion Bulletin No. 75 MEN OF GEORGIA For the Son of Man Is Come to Seek and to Save That Which Was Lost.” Luke 19:10 The House gave $30,000 to the reformatory for girls by House Bill No. 4 The committee on Appropriations of the Senate, of which SENATOR W. W. STARK is Chairman, offered two amendments to the Bill. Each was designed to cut off $10,000 from the already slender appropriation. The Bill had originally provided $75,000. The Senate agreed to one amendment—the other it killed—leaving the appropriation $20,000, which will enable the State to make a good beginning. But SENATOR STARK fought even this. He sent an amendment to the desk. The clerk read it. NONE LAUGHED. FEW SMILED. The Senate’s President ruled the amendment out of order. The purpose of it was only to ridicule the idea of the Bill. SENATOR STARK said further that if the measure were made the law, next year would come committees urging the State to take care of CATS AND DOGS as well as GIRLS. Again none laughed. Few smiled. But many thanked God for the MANHOOD OF THE MAJORITY of Georgia. Men were thinking, not of ribald salaciousness—but of the girl—the pitiable child whose life and soul depend upon such an home— They were recalling the thousands of dollars given to the care of hogs and cattle, and to the killing of bugs. They resented the sneer at helping children— even though the children be girls. SENATOR TARVER demonstrated that Georgia does not believe in damning children. Likewise did SENATOR FOSTER. As did SENATOR HUIE. And SENATOR ELKIN by his words revealed the unutterable emptiness of the sneering amendment. SENATORS JONES and DUBOSE spoke for suffering humanity. But SENATOR M’GREGOR opposed the measure. Economy—the saving of a dollar—was his cry— Nevertheless, the call of the “Ayes” and “Nays” disclosed that thir ty-two Senators of Georgia believe in protecting and saving girls. Only ten voted against the Bill. And it was passed. Friends rushed it across the Capitol to the House. SPEAKER BURWELL called the House to order. JOHN Y. SMITH, of Fulton, moved that the House concur in the action of the Senate. PICQUET, of Richmond, obtained the floor. He attacked the Bill. He tried to amend it. WIMBERLY, of Bibb, replied to him in words that burned. SHUPTRINE, a friend of the measure, interrupted WIMBERLY to ask; “Do you think there is a chance of this House accepting that amend ment?” ^ “No,” he thundered. “Not if there are any men with red blood in their veins on the floor of this House.” “Then don’t let’s argue. Vote,” said SHUPTRINE. And SPEAKER BURWELL put the question. The hall reverberated with a chorus of “Ayes”—the one hundred and fifteen who originally voted for the measure had gathered other men —the House was almost a unit for HOUSE BILL NO. 4. Thank God for this! A list of the men who have helped in this—AND TO MAKE PRO BATION A PART OF THE LAW OF GEORGIA—would include two- thirds of the members of both houses. Doing notable work were Olive, Myrick, Wright, Blackburn, Nun- nally, Culpepper, Jones of Coweta, Hollberg, Davidson, Mills and Gower, as well as those named above. But Georgia owes not only these—she owes every member of the House and Senate who voted for these measures a debt of gratitude. God will reward. And the saved boy and girl will call them blessed.
