SERVICES AT CHURCHES

 The following statement was made today in reference to the appointment of pr. E. F. Fields as campaign man ager of the O'Neal forces of beat 45, embracing Ensley.
 "A statement has been circulated in and around Ensley and gwen credence that a. serious breach or split had oc- cured in the ranks of the friends of Emmet ONeal in Ensley. This i'm pressfon probably grew out of the fact that an O'Neal club had been organ ized some time ago with Dr. F. II. Johnson as president, when later Dr. E. T. Fields had been named by the county chairman as manager of the in this beat. The statement that a breach had occurred is without in fact, and all the friends of O'Neal are working in perfect har- mony and with enthusiasm in his cause. The work the club will do and that of the beat campaign manager will all be to the same end--the election of Emmet O'Neal as governor-and there has not been. and there will not be-. but harmonious cooperation of the two branches of the campaign.
