BILL IS ADVERSED
ACTION OF SENATE EDUCATION
EODY FOLLOWS APPROVAL OF
MEASURE BY THE HOUSE
OTHER IMPORTANT MEASURES
Also Number Of New Bills Introduced
From Time To Time In Both
Branches Of Assembly
Atlanta.—The senate committee on
education adversely reported the Mc
Crory school book bill, which passed
the house by the margin of one vote
previously.
Action of the committee was taken
in executive session after a hearing
which occupied an entire afternoon,
and at which arguments were made
for and against the measure.
Representative McCrory of Schley
county, author of the measure, spoke
vigorously in its behalf. A number
of prominent educators, including
school superintendents and officials
from all over the state, opposed it.
The bill provided for creation of a
state school book commission which
shall select textbooks to be used in
public schools in the state. The com¬
mission would purchase copyrights
and plates for printing books and then
secure bids from printers. The books,
upon completion, would be distributed
to school children at cost.
Rising to defend the school authori¬
ties of Columbus and Muscogee coun¬
ty against what he termed "insinua¬
tions by Mr. McCrory a galas'. Super¬
intendent R. B. Daniel, picturing him
as holding up children of Muscogee
county and extorting a profit from
them for school books. Senator R. O.
Perkins, 24th, declared that Repre¬
sentative McCrory, in his address for
the bill, had maligned” the school
authorities.
Senator Perkins stated that he
wished to “fling back into the teeth
of the gentleman from Schley” the
accusations. Not one child of Mus¬
cogee is denied the privilege of going
to school, even if he is not able to pay
for it, said Senator Perkins.
Mr, McCrory referred frequently
to the “book trust.” and declared
that his plan would result in lower
book costs. Opposing him were Carle
ton B, Gibson of Savannah, super¬
intendent of the Chatham board of
education; J. E. Mathis, superintend¬
ent at Americus; W. P. Martin of
Gainesville, president of the Georgia
Education association; R. E. Brooks,
superintendent, at Albany; Miss
Katherine Dozier, member of the
state board of education; R. B. Dan¬
iel, superintendent at Columbus; T.
R. Jackson, of the Federation of La¬
bor; John T. Hancock, president of
the Fulton county board of educa¬
tion; W. J. Scott, president of the
Atlanta Teachers’ association, and
Superintendent Galusier of Decatur,
and Henry Walker, president of Mon¬
roe A. and M. school.

of agricultural items is expected.

CLEVELAND COURIER, CLEVELAND, GEORGIA
Gas Tax Amendment Hits Extensive
Users
A measure to extend the gasoline
tax to large users of gasoline who
buy it outside of the state and ship
it into Georgia in tank cars was unan¬
imously approved by the house ways
and means committee. Another bill,
providing for repeal of the stamp tax
on cigars and cigarettes and substitu¬
tion of a license tax on all tobacco
dealers in the state, was adversed by
a vote of 14 to 11.
The gasoline tax bill simply amends
the present law levying a sales tax
of three cents per gallon on retail
sales, to make it apply also to those
users who buy in wholesale quanti¬
ties for their own nse. Representa¬
tives Harris of Jefferson and Stone
of Union are authors of the measure.
Representatives of various wholesale
gasoline distributors speaking before
the committee stated that they did
not believe any of their companies
would object to such a law.
The tobacco tax bill drew forth ex¬
tended debate, both by outsiders in¬
terested and among members of the
committee in an executive session.
The measure was supported by rep¬
resentatives of the South Georgia to¬
bacco growers and the hotel men of
the state and by Albert Howell, law¬
yer for the tobacco dealers. It. was
opposed by Commissioner of Revenue
John M. Vandiver and members of his
enforcement forces.
Mr. Howell, speaking for the bill,
declared that it would increase the
state's revenue from tobacco dealers
from $560,000, the net revenue for
the first year's operation of the stamp
tax act, to $1,400,000, and declared
that the present stamp tax was un¬
fair and impracticable.

Fight On Bureau Of Markets
The light on the bureau of markets
and oil inspection department of the
department of agriculture flared
again, just as it did when the bill
was considered in committee of the
whole bouse, but with one exception:
the cuts in appropriations for these
two branches of the government
made in committee were sustained by
the house. The salary of the direc¬
tor of the market bureau, eliminated
by the committee of the whole, was
restored by the house, but the slash
in maintenance appropriation for the
bureau from $100,000 to $50,000 was
approved, as were the amendments
eliminating entirely the salaries of
the chief oil inspector and the clerk
to the chief oil inspector.

Plan For Tax Board In State Given
Setback
Fragments of would-be laws strewed
committee rooms of the Kimball
house when three committees of the
lower house of the genera) assembly
had completed their deliberations.
Measures that went down in
Included proposals to reduce the num¬
ber of oil inspectors; to prevent in¬
junctions against labor unions; to cre¬
ate a state tax commission and to re¬
peal the equalization tax act; to re¬
peal the workmen’s compensation act,
and many others.
After a hot session on th,e state
tax commission measure, general judi¬
ciary committee number voted $-8,
and the chairman cast his vote in fa¬
vor of adversing the. measure. Repre¬
sentative Barrett of Stephens county
led the fight on the measure, stating
that the time is not ripe for a tax
commission.

Defense, But Evidence Shows He
Was Killed Day Before Fire
Oakland, Calif.—Charles Henry
Schwartz, object of a nation - wide
search in connection with the myste¬
rious murder in the Pacific Cellulose
company plant at Walnut Creek, com¬
mitted suicide when trapped in an
apartment. He left a note admitting
the murder.
Schwartz, believed to have killed a
labct'er and attempted to burn the
body in a plot to collect move' than
one hundred thousand dollars’ worth
of insurance, shot himself through the
head when policemen surrounded the
apartment. He had been hiding in
the apartment since the explosion, on
July 30, when the body was, found.
The note, in which he admitted- the
murder, was lefi for his wife, who
is the principal beneficiary in the in¬
surance. and who steadfastly main¬
tained that the body found in the
plant was that of her husband.
In his note, Schwartz said he had
killed in self-defense a man who came
to his laboratory and demanded mon¬
ey. This assertion was upset when the
police learned he rented the Oakland
apartment and arranged to go into
hiding several hours before the ex¬
plosion.
Regarding, bis deed, Schwartz wrote
liis wife;
“Now I wish to tell you, my dear
little girl, 1 do not know the man
never looked how he was dressed, nev¬
er touched him after that. The only
thing 1 did was I tried to burn him,
to wipe out, and go-go, 1 do

payer of the state.
Minnesota Bible Reading Law Valid
Virginia, Minn.—Constitutionality of
the reading of the Bible in the public
schools of irginia was upheld by
Judge Edward Freeman in a decision
filed in-district court. The decision
was in the case of Max Kaplan on
behalf of himself and others against
the independent school district of Vir¬
ginia and members of the obard of
education. Judge Freeman held that
the reading of the Bible in the public
schools does not constitute any in¬
fringement upon the plaintiff’s con¬
stitutional right and is lawful.
Chinese Prisoner Receives Opium
Norfolk, Va.—Shortly after he and
two other Chinese had Jpeen arrested
in a raid conducted by federal nar¬
cotic agents, Huie F. Youn received
a pound and a half of opium through
the mails and was arrested on the ad¬
ditional Charge. Inspectors arranged
for the package to be delivered to
Youn at the jail and the Chinese un¬
suspectingly accepted it. He is held
in default of a three thousand dollar
bond. Five pounds of opim were
seized in the first raid. Arrest of the
wholesaler is expected soon.
Joke Turned on
Jealous Husband
Mr. Smith, who was an exceedingly
jealous husband, overexerted bis weak¬
ness when he saw torn bits of note
paper on his wife’s desk. Picking up
one piece, be read: “Dear One.” On
another was, “I want to be happy,”
and on a third, “I’ll see you in my
dreams.”
“Ha, ha!” be thought villainously,
“I have the proof this time.”
Taking the supposedly pieced to¬
gether letter downstairs, he said;
“Whom have you been writing to to¬
day, my dear?”
“Why, no one,” answered curious
wife.
“Get any mail today?”
“No,” snapped wife again. “Why?”
“Well, here is the proof of some
devilish' letter you forgot to destroy.”
Dropping the pieces of note paper
on the table, he noticed a twinkle in
the eye of his better half.
“How funny you are, dear. That
was a list of music 1 bought today.”
And the storm sutsided.

Shoes for Bird Dogs
As part of the equipment of bird
hunters using dogs, an eastern sports¬
man recommends wool-lined, sole
leather hoots he laced upon the four
feet: of the dog. “This saves many
nasty briar cuts, stubble bruises and
sheds sand burrs. The dog soon be¬
comes quite willing that they should
be placed upon his feet, for lie realizes
after his first hunt that bis feet are
not tender and cut up as is usual
when hunting rough and weed-ladened
country,” says this gunner.
