ELECTION FORECAST

Montgomery, April 5.-(SpeciaL )-Per- sons returning from the organization meeting of the Alabama Highway asso- citation, held in Birmingham this week, believe statewide election on the sub ject of issuing highway improvement bonds to the amount of s25,00o000, will he held before the end of 199 The sub ject will be one of the first to be submit ted to the legislature. when it reconvenes July s, and it will be urged to call the election at the rlest practicable date.
 Leaders in the legislature have already pledged their efforts to movement which will give Alabama sufficient funds to match the $25,O0O, ,O00 which will be given to this state by the federal gov ernment, provided the same amount is raised within the state This is taken to mean that they will favor the bond issue, as this will be the only means the state can use in obtaining funds at this time.
 It is probable that the legislature will provide that the automobile licenses shall be used in paying interest on the bonds and in creating sinking fund gradually to retire the bonds when or before they become due. Another suggestion is that the licenses on motors be increased about 50 per cent.
 Strong influence will be brought to bear on the legislature also to use convict labor on the highways. The administra- tion is committed to the programme of removing convicts from the mines as soon ass possible and one argument now will be that the state has a great incentive for road work and for the abandonment of mine working in favor of highway i'm pavement work.
 The subject of road work and methods of ma tching the federal appropriation will come before the recess committee on pen itentiary and highways created by the legislature in February, which will hold it's first meeting this month and will make general investigations before the legisla- ture reconVeneS

!'MELADY PEEVED AT | ZbYSKZO'S CLAIM CaddOck s Manager Asserts
 That His Champ Has Not Retired

Gene Melady, manager of Earl Cad worlds heavyweight wrestling cham pionship and at present, is very much peeved over the announcement by Jack Curley that the recent defeat of Strang Ter Lewis by Vladek Zbyszko entitled the latter to the worlds heavyweight wrestling championships because of Caddock's retirement from the game Melady takes strong objection to Cur ley's statement. In letter to the New York Sun he writes:
 "No one has authority to make a statement to the effect that Caddock has retired Let me say emphatically that he has not retireds and. further has no intention of retiring He still is heavyweight champion and all state ments to the contrary notwithstanding IS stiii uhder my management. As soon as he is mustered out of service he will meet all challengers for the title"
 There is not the slightest flaw in Caddock's championship as he has beaten every one of his ablest competi- tors and nearly all the minor wrestlers or the class. Caddock's first notable victory was over Joe Stecher, in 1917. They met at Omaha in April, and Stecher won the first fall in one hour and twenty-two minutes. Caddock took the second fall in one hour and forty minutes, and tSecher refused to come out for the third fall. thus for feting the match
 Caddock has twice beaten Zbyszko, defeating the Pole at Des Moines on Fepruary s, 1918, by two straight falls. m two hours and thirty minutes. On May \, 1918, Caddock got the decision on points over Zbyszko at Chicago after wrestling two hours and thirty minutes without a fall Caddock defeated Lewis at Des Moines June 21. 1918, getting the decision on points, after two hours and twenty minutes withoutSa fall
