report. Forestry projects were
carried out by 13,000 4-H Club
members. Georgia farmers also
planted more than 8.000,000
seedlings during the year.

this bill is the second step in a conspir

Georgia and because it deprives all vot

they are entitled.
The first step in the conspiracy ot
which this bill is a part was taken last
November in the General Election when
the author of this bill, with his cohorts,
bolted the Party by conducting a write-in
campaign against the Party’s nominee for
Governor.
They first attempted to nullify the Pri
