livestock NOT
CONSIDF.RED AS
DOMESTIC ANIMALS
Mules, horses, cows, sheep,
goats, hogs and other livestock
are not considered ’’’domestic
animals” for purposes of ad va¬
lorem taxation. Attorney Gen¬
eral Eugene Ccok has held in a
recent unofficial opinion.
However, Mr. Cook further
held, tractors, combines, thresh¬
ing machines and other farm
equipment are considered ‘‘im¬
plements of trade in determin¬
ing the ad valorem tax.
The questions arose in the
interpretation of the Code Sec¬
tion which provides for a per¬
sonal property exemption of
$300 in computing the ad va¬
lorem tax on “all personal
clothing, household and kitchen
furniture, personal property
used and included within the
home, domestic animals and
tools, an implements of trade
of manual laborer.

GEORGE TO BRING SENATE
HEARINGS TO GA. NOV. 12
Senator Walter George has
announced plans for a special
Senate inquiry into Georgia!
farm conditions as they relate
to the farm price support issue.
George said 'the Senate Agri¬
culture Committee has accepted
his special invitation to a sub-
cemmittee which is to visit farm
states this fall. Senator Allen
Ellender, .c f Louisiana, Chair¬
man of Senate Committee on
Agriculture, informed George he
has directed the state (be placed
on the group’s itinerary.
“ This question, of whether a
high level of price supports are
to be maintained b y the gov¬
ernment, is of vital importance
to our farmers,” said Senator
George. “I want them to have
the opportunity of providing
on-the-scene first-hand infor¬
mation to this committee which
will draft legislation.”
George said he has invited
the committee to Georgia this
fall, and that he expects to
meet with it as host.
Tentatively, he v has slated the
group to hold a one-day hearing
at Macon, on November 12.
This date was open on a tight
schedule.
The Georgia Senator said he
did not know how many of the
Senate committee will be able
to attend the Georgia hearing
but that he is especially anxious
to have the committee staff ex¬
perts visit Georgia. He said he
wanted the group to understand
more fully the conditions
brought on by last year’s-ter-
rible drought and the catastro¬
phic spring freeze.
‘■Georgia’s prosperity is de¬
pendent upon a healthy and
stable agriculture,” Senator
said. “We welcome this oppor¬
tunity to strengthen .our posi¬
tion for price supports.”
