§ 43-21-57 constitutional although title of Act does not mention injunction. - Fact that no particular reference is made in the title of Ga. L. 1945, p. 326 (see now O.C.G.A.

Const. 1976, Art. III, Sec. VII, Para. IV (see now Ga. Const. 1983, Art. III, Sec. V, Para. III). Copeland v. Leathers, 206 Ga. 280, 56 S.E.2d 530 (1949).
