 CONTEST
By Associated Press.

By ASSOclaUe0 RreSS-
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. 29.-In- dieations point to a majority of from 16,OOO to 10000 against the drastic prohibition amendment to the eonsti- tuition. Chairman Lee Long, who is in charge of the fight against the amendment, claims 10000.
 Early indications of a landslide against the amendment were fully borne out by succeeding bulletins Jefferson county, where is located Birmingham, the largest city in the state, and in spite of the fact that the fight was concentrated here. gave majority of a thousand against. The amendment carried only in three counties.
 The election, however, cannot be counted as a straight anti-prohibition victory, as personal politics injected into the issue, assoeiating Governor Conner with the reported ability to name as the successor to the gov ernorship, Judge Kley, the author of the prohibition amendment, fig ured prominently in the result.
 A fact of special interest is that for the first time the entire eleetor- ate of the state had an opportunity of expression on the question of pro- hibitiOn. A significant feature was that the small rural communities re- turned majorities against the amend ment.
 There were so many fstie eneoun- ters it was impossible to keep track of them. Excitement ran high. Oscar Hall, tax commissioner of Baldwin county, fell dead after voting for the amendment. The doctors said it was due to heart failure induced by ex- eitement.

Secretary Meyer Will Inaugurate Reforms To Be Effective
 Wednesday
MEN WHO FIGHT HEREAFTER TO HAVE MORE VOICE IN
 CONDUCT OF AFFAIRS
By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Heeding the cry for reform, Secretary Meyer of the Navy will inaugurate on Wednesday the most sweeping chang es since the department was organ -ized in 1s41.
 He hopes to put the department on a business basis beyond the deans of his predecessors. The keynote is the subordination of bureau chiefs.
 Summarized the reforms are: The selection of four advisers to be known as aide for material; aide of personnel; aid of the operations of the fleet, and aide of inspections. The grouping of the bueraus in two divisions, material and personnel; the establishment of a comprehensive in spection system; the abolition of the bureaus of construction and equip ment.
 Henceforth officers who fight on ships will have more voice in the influence and conduct of the navy. The secretary will retain administra- tive and executive powers. All re- forms go into effect December l. The aide for operations will be Admiral Wainwright; personnel, Admiral W. P. Potter; aide of material, Admiral William Swift; inspection, Captain Aaron Ward. Captain Reginald Mich - olson will be chief of the bureau of navigation, succeeding Potter.
 Under the new plan the operating branch will originate features of con- structiOn in consultation with the gen. eral board. Secretary Meyer has decided to divide the manufacturing department into two divisions-ma- chinery and hulls, according to the practice in England and Germany.
