Secretary NageI Favors Admissien of
 gyrfamH.

washington. Nov. lf.--Secretary Ma gel of the department of commerce and labor expressed his opinion today on the subject of functions of the na- turalization division of that depart ment to an effect quite different from that embodied in the recent ruling of Richard K. Campbell, chairman of that division. in opposition to the naturah- zation of syrians and others of kin dred race.
 MT. Nagel declared 1t to be the at titude of the department that the function of the naturalization division was to present facts and not to at tempt to enforce any particular in- depreciation of the law.
 Speaking directly of the controversy over the eligibility of Syrians. MT. Nagel said he saw no reason for any action on the part of the department that would cause any uneasiness to any class of immigrants.
 Tbere are several cases in the fed eraI courts and decision have been rendered in states as widely apart as California, Louisiana and Rhode ls- land favorable to the Syrians. secre- tary Nagel believes the personal char acter of the applicant for citizenship or more importance than his nationality

sCHEllE OF AIElDERs BARED

Headlana. Nov. 11-(Special)-T chief sepsation of the campaign in this section Of the state was sprung here today. when Senator Max Ham- burger of Mobile. speaking against the amendment. produced an affidavit signed by sheriff B. [. Andrews. de- elaring that while the constitutional amendment was pending in the Senate Harry l. Martin political lieutenant of Governor Conner and q leading lobbyist for the Anti-saioon League. told him that when the amendment had been passed and had been ratified. an extra session of the Legislature would be called at which an act would be passed. making 1t unlawful to have whiskey in the homes or to carry 1t on the person.
 Mr. Hamburger declared that the sf- fidavit clearly shows that 1t was the purpose of the prohibition politicians. who already had laws passed forbid ding the use of whiskey in the home to provide law for search and seizure of the home--the intent of the amend ment.
 The deepest significance is attached to the affidavit of Sheriff Andrews. who Is man of the highest standing in Dale county. By those who know him. every word of the affidavit is ac- cepted as absolutely .true. signifi- canoe is added to 1t. too. by the high standing of Harry L. Martin in the councils of the political prohibitionists and by his closeness to Governor Conner.
 During the extra session of the Legislature he spent practically all his time in Montgomery working for the passage of the amendment. Next to Brooks Lawrence he was recognized aa the most important of the many lob- byists that were working for that bill,
 It will be recalled that he was of fered the circuit judgeship by Cover nor Conner when Judge A. A. Evans was appointed to the Supreme Court bench. He Is editor of The Ozark Tribune, which published . bitter at tack on the Jews of Montgomery and to which Senator Hamburger made answer on the floor of the Senate.
 Senator Hamburger was furnished with a copy of the affidavit, of Sheriff Andrews while in Ozark yesterday. He is making three speeches a day through the Wiregrass. Ills reading

Ozark. Nov. 11.-( Especial Senator Max Hamburger of Mobile spoke here yesterday in defense Of the constitu- ton to 100 voters. Tn fact, the court house was full. every seat being taken. while many stood In the aisles and occupied the windows. A noticeable fact was that there were no women nor school children present.
 MT. Hamburzer's speech was clear. forcefui and full of good sense and good argument: the frequent rounds of applause attesting both to his ability as speaker and the temper of his hearers.
 Several white ribbons were seen in the audience. but most of the avowed .'amenders. of Ozark were absent.
 The early arrival in town of large number of the best citizens from diff ferent portions. of our country the promptness with which they filled the court house when the speaking was announced and the attention and en- thusiasm accorded the speaker. could leave but small doubt as to the out come in Dale County.
