Notes On The Georgia Situation
Some citizens are strong admir¬
ers of Governor Talmude, others
en ertain feelings about him wbicTi
are the opposite ot admiration, Put
both classes can agree that the
Governor posses one quality which
is audacity.
Consider the job the Governor
has laid out for himself in the com
j * n g m 1111
First, he must devise somej
method of operating tlie Since
government without appropr'i
tions. *
Second, he must defeat Presi
dent Roosevelt in Georgia for the
Democrat ic nominal ion.
Third, he must defeat Senator
Richard B. Russell and ten Geor¬
gia Congressmen.
Governor Tulmtdge asserts that
President Roosevelt’s adtninislra
ion has brought the country to the
brink of turn. There are many
who believe that the country was
teetering "on the brink of ruip
when Roosevelt took office oh
March 4 1933- In fact, there are
plenty who be ieve that the couth
try was not more than one lap
ahead of revolution in those frighi 1
ful d tys. - I
Georgia cotton growers
getling more than double the priefc
for their cotton which they go,s
under President Hoover. Georgiy
tobacco growers this year establisl -
ed a new high level in the round
sum of thirteen million dollars re¬
ceived for their cr p. Georgia
hanks are bursting with money
which their depositors are no long
er afraid to let them keep.JGeotgia
merchants are doing such good
business they can hardly behave it
when they look at the figures Most
important of all, tlie psychology o!
leer.
Nevertheless, Governor Tal
inudge asserts t hat Roosevelt lias
brought the country to the brink of
ruin. He could talk five years
continuously and never convince
this writer of any such proposition,
but maybe he can go forth in his
red suspenders and water gourd
and convince a majority of the
Democrats of Geargia that Roose¬
velt,s adm in ist rat ion has been botli
unsuccessful and unfaithful.
It lie cm do it, then Geosgia
Demo, rats m the Presidential pref
erenti primary next spring wi l
repud • Roosevelt, md send to
the National Convention a delega¬
tion instructed to swap horses 11.
tlie precise midtile of the Demo¬
cratic stream.
Governor Talmndge is quite pre¬
cise in his idea as to where and
when tlie horse-swapping should
should he done, but it is not pre
else at all as to what horses ttie
Democrats should bestride when
t.la .y dismount from Roosevelt.
Perhaps he is reserving the iden
tity of his candidate until the veiy
last moment, like the orators do
when they introduce tlie “distin
guished speaker of tlie occasion.”
If Roosevelt, as Talmadge con¬
tends, has-been unfaithful and un
successful, then of course it follows
that Senator Rus-ell and Georgia’s
ten Congressmen have been un¬
faithful and unsuccessful, and they
must fall before the Governor’s in¬
vincible sword.
Senator Russall and tlie Georgia
Congressmen can no more be sepa
ted from tlie Roosevelt udministra
tion then limbs can be separated
from a tree. If the Roosevelt ad¬
ministration lias done its level best
to help the country, and if its el
forts have made conditions better
than they were when Roosevelt
took oificei U)en Seu;ttor Russeil
and the Georgia Congressmen de
j serve their share of the credit, and
are entitled to re-election.
I But if the Roosevelt admiaistra
tion has done its level best to be
Uray ana ruin the country, to ‘‘sell
out the farmer,” to overthrow
American institutions and replace
them with institutions invinted in
Moscow, then Senator Russell and
the Georgia Congiessmen have
besu unfaithful to the trust reposed
in them by their people, and de
serve political annihilation.
Gtvernor Talmadge for the past
nine months has enjoyed a mono
ply of the politic 1! stage in Geor¬
gia. While the Georgia Congress
men and Senators were at work in
Washington, participating in the
enactment of the far-reaching
measures of the New Deal, Tal¬
madge has swaggered back and
forth of the footlights, denouncing
the New Deal as an instrument of
Satan or Stalin, or both.
Now the scene changes. Con¬
gress lias adjourned. Senators
George and Russel! are at home.
The ten Georgia Congressmen are
back among their people. Tal¬
madge no longer monopolizes tin
political stage. lie shares it with
twelve other men. the least ol
whom is at least his equal in abil¬
ity and character.
These twelve men are going to
give Georgians a plenty to tlduk
about in tlie next ninety days.
How is Governor Talmadge go¬
ing io operate the State govern¬
ment after January i, 1836, with¬
out appropriations?
Before his advent in public af
fairs in Georgia, such a thing as a
Governor oven contemplating such
a performance, much less attempt
it, would have been considered
idiotic. Nevertheless, he waives
the matter aside with grand ges¬
ture and says: ‘'You watch me
doit.”
Appropriations for the mainte¬
nance of and institu
tions of the State of Georgia are
trfade, of course, by the Legisla
ture, the same as such appropria¬
tions are made in every otlierState,
and in the United States by the
Congress thereof.
Georgia’s Legislature when it
met in biennial session at the be¬
ginning of tlie year did nol suc¬
ceed in passing a general appro¬
priation bill, to cover the years
I9g6 and 1937- This was due to a
fuilure ot the House and Senate to
agree on certain disputed items
The last hour of t he last day when
they could continue in session
couglit them still in d sagreement,
Result—no appropriation bill.
Half a dozen oj more able law¬
yers, as able as there are in Geor¬
gia, have expressed to this writer
the opinion that a Governor has
no more authority to pay money
out of the treasury in the absence
of Legislative! appropriation there
of, than he would have to take a
sn chel into the treasury vaulte and
fill it will) currency and walk out
with it.
Nevertheless, Governor Tal¬
madge announces his intention 1*1
take the revenues, (it any), and do
with them as he sees fit, and '‘be
d untied to the Legislature.”
Whether there will be any revenu¬
es will depend on whethrr taxpay¬
ers see fit to pay their State taxes,
in tlie teeth of an explicit provi-ion
of the Constitution of Georgia that
no taxns shall be levisd “except to
pay appropriations.”
