PRIMARY IS CALLED FOR APRIL 6 TO FILL
 SHORT TERM PLACE
(Continued from Page Five)


 of Joseph F. Johnston at the time of the democratic run-off, May H. The goy- ernor announced Tuesday that he would call an election for that date and wired Tyler Goodwin, chairman of the state democratic executive committed, to ask the committee In session at Birmingham to provide for the nomination of can didate in the primary April II.
 Following receipt of the telegram, the committee ordered the nomination of a short term candidate, and fixed April 20 as the date for a run-off should there be more than two candidates for senator
 Misunderstanding may result from a general and democratic election on the same date as only democrats can serve as officers in the primary. and the gen eral election law provides that man. agers of general elections shall be se- lected from members of different politi- cal parties
 Can Work Out Problem
 The governor was asked about this after he had given notice of the cleo tion, and said that the problem could be worked out
 By holding the general election on the day of the democratic run-off much money can be saved the state" said the governor. This brings up the ques- ton of whether or not the democrats who entered the first primary as can didates for office can be forced to pay for the general election from which they will not benefit. However, it is not be- lieved there will be serious objections as the election will cost no more than 1t would had the candidates for the short term senatorship not entered.
 The person nominated by the demo- cratic party and elected in the special election will succeed Senator Johnston, who died last year, and will take the place of Frank P. Glass of Birmingham. who was appointed by the governor and rejected by the Senate because no effort was made to comply with the seven- teenth amendment providing for the di- rect election of senators by the people

Senate Now to Act on the
 Maneuver Camp Bill
REGULAR ARMY POST
BlackmOn Secures Consent of Minor ity Leader Mann Not to Oppose Measure-Bell Sees No Hob-
 son Men in Florida

Anniston, March 3.-(Special. )-Con- gressman Fred L. BlaclSmon has been ex- tensively congratulated by his friends here on account of his success in getting the permanent maneuver camp bill, which he fathered, passed in the House of Repre- sentatives Monday afternoon
 MT. Blackmon is beng especially con- graduated on getting the consent of Minority Leader Mann not to oppose his bill. The Illinois solon has been very az gressive in fighting every effort to bring the maneuver camp to Anniston, and the fact that he relaxed his efforts at the critical moment is attributed to the fine tact Representative Blackmon has mani fested in handling the opposition to his measure.
 A meeting of statewide interest will be held at Parker Memorial Baptist church here on March 10, at which time representatives of the stNte, home and foreign mission boards of the Baptist church win hold conference. They will map out a state itinerary in the interest of general missions.
 Capt A. w. Bell, a retired capitalist of this city. who has been on his annual winter visit to Florida for the past six weeks has returned home. He is a mem- Der of the Underwood campaign committee in this county and states that among the hundreds of men with whom be came in contact while away. he did not find one who did not favor the cleo ton of Oscar w. Underwood as Ala bama's next United States senator
 ''I believed it before I left said Cap tain Bell, but now know that Alabama would be the laughing stock of the na- ton if we should turn down Oscar Un- derwood in favor of Hobson.' One of the interesting phases of the campaign in this county is. that whilc Captain Bell is strong for Underwood, his son, c. R. Bell. a wholesale grocer, is equally strong for Robson, being a member of the latter's campaign committee.

William Henry Cowan. Liberal, pro-
posed that Great Britain follow Rus.
sia's example and prohibit the sale of
liquor during the war. Mr.. Healy de-
manded greater liberality in dealing
with the dependents OF the soldiers.
He said:
We are not going to have crippled
warriors in the warehouses; again. or
their dependents thrown upon the
scrap heap"
In his closing speech, Premier
Asquith placed the burden OF the cen
sorship on France. and said IL was
necessary to defer TO the wishes Of
the country which was doing the
greater part of the fighting and where
the fighting was being carried on.
Matter Of Pay.
Dealing with the matter of pay. the
premier said:
The insufficiency of the pay OF the
lower ranks OF commissioned officers
has long been a reproach TO this coun-
try, but has become scandalous and
an indecency when men are laying
down their lives"
He announced that Earl Kitchener.
secretary Of state for war. had pre-
pared a scheme for increased pay. He
closed by declaring that sickness
among the troops had not exceeded
10. possibly 10 per cent. and that he
believed no body OF men ever had
been brought together who had com.
ported themselves better than the
present army
Dealing with the vote OF a million
additional men. the premier remark
ed that apart from the territorials
100000 men already were under
arms. That number. however. he ad.
ded. was not enough. He said he saw
no reason to be discouraged by the
recruiting figures. The number OF
men that the exigencies OF the state
demanded. he believed. would be
raised. Indeed. ne considered that
the recruiting position was very sat.
