GRIFFITH TO RUN.

E. NJ. Griffith, prosecuting attorney
viii be a candidate for re- elestion and
for the nomination on the Democratic
ticket for said office at the primary
election on September 3. His ability as
a successful prosecutor ia we'll known,
and his good Judgment in knowing
what cases should or should not be
prosecuted has resulted in saving the tax
payers many thousands of dollars. He
is fearless in performing the duties of
said office and does not hesitate when
conditions warrant in refusing to prose
cute cases which would otherwise prove
a failure to convict ana an unnecessary
expense to the county. The tax pay
ers who stand the burden Of the ex-
pense in criminal prosecution win I'M
doubtsdly bear this in mind when it
comes to the choice who shall be the
next prosecuting attorney. Mr.. Grit
fifth is what is known as the govern
ment appeal agent for the local draft
board and his duties in this matter have
great deal of his attention
aside from his regular officiel
duties. eff

 Must Do Duty
DOES NOT WANT TO
 LEAVE WASHINGTON
President Needs Him to Help Run the War and Campaign Out of Question-Final State
 meut Later

Washington, May 27.-tSpecialO Congressman Heflin gave out the foi- lowing statement today;
 "The question as to when Congress would adjourn has been one or se- rious concern to me as l have consio- cred the matter of entering the sena- torial race against Senator Bankheaa' and since the President and those nm mediately in charge of the war pro- gramme have decided that the exigen- cies of the occasion make it necessary for Congress to remain in session, feel I should be at my post rendering such assistance as I can to the Pres ident in the passage of necessary war measures. Those who know me best know tEat the only question that I have considered seriously in connec- tion with the senatorial race was the question of my duty in the matter. But for the fact that have differed sharp ly with Senator Bankhead upon his po- sition on three important measures, growing out of the war, to-wit the ship purchase bill. the war tax bill and his vote last summer putting cotton In the food bill. would not have con- sidered entering the race for the sem ate at this time.
 T like the service in the House ard feel that I have accomplished something of value and have been of some service to our people there and the President has been good enough to say to me re- peatedly that I have been a source of real comfort and help to him as he has handled the great problems of the war.
 'No man ever had district to stand more lovingly and Loyalty by him than the Fifth Alabama district has stood by me, and in considering the matter of entering the senatorial race was prompted as much by my desire to be of greater service to the people of my own district, as 1 was to serve in a larger measure the whole people of the state, and while pledging united support if should enter the race for the Senate, democrats from all over my district have expressed regret at the prospect of giv- ing me up as their representative in the House I am deeply grateful to them for their affectionate regard and great ly appreciate the expressed desire of the many democrats over the state to have me represnt them in the Senate of the United States.
 "rhe Senate by reason of the larger power possessed by a senator would furnish wider field of usefulness anG enable me to better protect the cot ton industry of the south, and place me in position to be of greater serv- ice to the President of the country and to the boys at the front, and yet. in order to make a successful race for the Senate I would have to leave Washington and make a thorough can vass of the state This would take me away from my place in the House dur ing a very important session of Con- gress.'
 MT Heflin will make a final state ment in the matter on or before June 1.
