Nuxated Iron and its widespread sale Git be- ing estimated that over three million people annually are to-day using it), has led to the offering of numerous substitutes, and these physicians say that health officials and doc- tors everywhere should caution the public against accepting substitutes in medicines and they especially warn against accepting substitutes for Nuxated Iron, which, instead of being organic iron may be nothing mora than a metallic iron compound which may in some cases produce more harm than good. The widespread publication of the above in. formation, has been suggested by Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly physician of Belle vue Hospital Outdoor Dept.l, New York, and the Westchester County Hospital; Dr. Ferdinand King, New York Physician and Medical Author and others, so that the pub. lie may be informed on this subject and protected from the use of metallic iron un- der the delusion that it is Nuxated Iron or at least something as good as Nuxated Iron. ~n-
 It is surprising how many people suffer from iron deficiency and do not know it. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See l. how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two hve-grain tablets of Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for two weeks, Then test your strength and see how much you have gained. -~S

Man Power BiU Gets
 Alaban1ians Support
Gray and Huddleston Only Members From State Who Are Not Present at Roll Call-State
 Backing the Administration
Rr HIGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, August 26.-(Special) The editorial of the New York Sun. in- weighing against Representative Dent, Blackmon and Steagall was ill-advised. Along with all other Alabamians, they opposed drafting of boys younger than 21 years of age. But when their fight was lost they supported the man pow CT bill. It was their position that ir- respective of how men might differ relative to detail it was the duty of patriots to support the vital princi- pals of the administration.
 They were not in sympathy with those Alabamians who supported the volunteer system, and that system beaten, opposed the administration in its right to resort to the draft. Simply they thought that the administration should not invade classes below 21 years of age. However, when the ad- ministration won out, they took their medicine and voted to give the gov- ernment power to draft all ages, any individual it desired to draft
 For that reason, the strictures of the New York Sun, reproduced in Ala bama, were regarded as unfair. In this connection, Alabaniians by unani- nous vote, expressed in indirect sense,

GEN. MARCH WOULD
 ASSIST IN GIVING
 SOLDIERS A VOTE
Question of Permitting Men in Serv- ice to Vote Will Come Before
 Next Alabama Legislature

Washington, August 26-(Special)-Gen-.
 eral March, chief of staff. in a general
 order has enuncated the extent to which
 the government will go in securing and
 transmitting the votes of soldiers engaged
 in the service.
 He makes it plain that the govern
 ment is anxious that soldiers, not actual
 ly engaged in warfare, be given the right
 of suffrage. Furthermore, he calls upon states, the laws of which do not make
 distant voting possible, so to amend their laws that soldiers will be permitted in their right of suffrage.
 In a general way, the government in clines strongly to securing the votes of soldiers in the United States, and weakly to securing votes of soldiers in Europe. In his order the general declares that the government will secure the votes wherever possible and transmit them, or aid in every way election commissioners , from those states which require commits sionerS.
 In Alabama as result of election laws requiring one to vote in person. it lis said and generally believed that a constitutional amendment vii be neces- sary before citizen can vote at places out of the borders of the state. It 's 1 learned positively, that in the session of
 the legislature next fall an effort will be made to give Alabamians in the serv- l ice the right to cast their ballots .
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-08-27

were opposed to drafting boys below 21 years of age. When Representative Dent, chairman of the military com mittee, moved that the administration draft bill be recommitted with instruc- tions that the House agree to the drafting of men only 21 years old and in excess thereof, the Alabama dele gation voted as a unit. For the Dent resolution the following voted:
 Dent, Steagall, Blackmon,8 Heflin, Burnett, Almon and Bankhead.
 Those who lodged the roll call were Gray, of the First, who suffered de7 feat in the recent primary, and Hud- dleston, of the Ninth, who was not present and who, according to the President, has always opposed the ad- ministration. The other Alabamians who did not vote was Representative Oliver, who is across the seas in a study of the American naval prepara- tion for the prosecution of the Euro pean war.
 This fact is apparent: Alabamians differed as to the manner in which procedure might be made, but agreed with the administration that irre- spective of details procedure should be made.
 Representatives Dent, Steagal1 and Blackmon, therefore, are not to be considered with those who stood stol- idly against the raising of an army to prosecute the war, war having been declared.

NO PRICE FIXED
 FOR COTTON SEED

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 It has been brought to our attention from many sections that it is being cur rently reported in Alabama that the food administration has fixed the price to be paid for cotton seed this season, Such reports are untrue and unWar- ranted. The food administration desires and insists that the producer receive the highest price for his seed warranted by the returns the mills secure for finished products, less the reasonable allowances made for the expense of buying and crushing. The food administration has not fixed a price. If it becomes neces- sary ill order to protect the producer for such action to be taken notice Will immediately be given the public under the authority of this office.

RICCO IDENTIFIES NEGROES WHO SHOT
 AND KILLED HIS WIFE

Solomon Wilson and James Leake, ne- groes, charged with causing the death of Mrs. Dominic Ricco were identified at the county jail yesterday by the husband of the deceased. It is alleged that the two negroes went to Riccos store a few days ago and attempted to rob him and fired two shots, one of them fatal ly wounding Mrs. Ricco. They made good their escape.
 Constable J. c. Matlock and Deputy James Daley worked on the case and suc- ceeded in running down the two negroes.
 Yesterday Ricco in company with sev- eral friends, went with Solicitor Tate and the two officers to the county jail to identify the men in custody. The moment Ricco saw the negroes he identi- fled them as the ones who tried to rob him and who shot his wife. The sight of the negroes drove him into frenzy and he tried to enter the cell in which they were confined with the evident in- tention of doing them bodily harm. He was restrained by the officers with some difficulty and with anger unabated was taken away from the cell

With the American Army on the Ves- le Front, August 26.-(By the Asso- ciated Press JLSeveral German ammu- nition dumps north of the Vesle were blown up today by high explosives from the American guns. This was the only notable incident in the operations between Soissons and Rheims, al- though the usual exchange between the artilleries continued.
 The destruction of the dumps was made possible by aerial observation by American aviatoFs. They were located near Revillon and early in the day a battery of long-range guns began dropping shells at points indicated The observation posts soon after re- ported great clouds of smoke from the targets.
 An indication of the lengths to which Germany is going for war ma- terials is contained in a letter taken from a dead soldier. It was written by his wife and informed him that the great bronze statue of Emperor Will liam at Luneburg, Pomeraine, had been torn down and sent to the foun- dry to be converted into ordnance, as had also the roofs of churches.
