Cattle Dipping Law Test Case Heard In Georgia
A test case in Superior Court before Judge George Munro questions the Georgia cattle dipping law as unconstitutional against due process. Taylor County figures, including County Agent Heider and Sheriff Beeland, contend officers may seize cattle if owners do not dip. The case, with state vet Peter Bahnsen present, was postponed to September with travel to Butler to hear it, amid broad debate over the dipping statute. Japan has few silk animals and no poisonous reptiles. Vidalia Flour Mill, idle, reopened after disputes.
