Opinion of the Court
1. The judgment of this court reversing the trial court has been reversed by the Supreme Court of Georgia on certiorari in Hard v. Housing Authority of the City of Atlanta, 219 Ga. 74 (132 SE2d 25). In compliance with the direction of the Supreme Court the judgment of the trial court is affirmed on the question considered and decided by the Supreme Court.
2. It becomes necessary to decide another question originally raised in this court by the Housing Authority’s appeal (106 Ga.

The court ruled that such evidence was inadmissible. Whether or not the trial court was right in this ruling, the ruling was not harmful to
Under the direction of the Supreme Court and under our authority to adjudicate the additional question not heretofore passed on the judgment of the trial court denying the Housing Authority’s motion for a new trial is
Affirmed.
