THOMPSON IS NOT AN
 ASPIRANT FOR PLACE

Montgomery. May 5.-( Especially Frederick I. Thompson. publisher of the Mobile Register. and vice chairman of the United States shipping board, wired friends in Montgomery today not to submit his name to the state delnocratic executive committee for national com mititeeman, as the successor of Col " r. Sanders. deceased.
 Friends of A1r. Thompson were f,rr- ing his selection,T but Mir Thompson no tified them that he believed T.. w. Bar rett.> editor Of The Birmingham Age- Herald. should be selected in view of the fact that MT. Barrett was the run- ner-up for the honorary position when Mfr. Sanders was named and probably would have been elected had he made any campaign.
 Those who were urging the selection of MT. Thompson were acting inde- pendently of any suggestion from him in the belief that he would be the log ical representative for Alabama during his residence at the national capital

JEWELL SUMS UP UNION TESTIMONY Moves That Wage Reduction Case Before Board Be
 Dismissed
By Associated Press

Chicago, May 5.--Summing up the en- tire testimony of the railway unions af- filiated with the American Federation of Labor, E. M. Jewell, head of the o. ganization, today declared there was no Justification for reduction of rail- way workers wages and moved that the wage reduction case now before the railroad labor board be dismissed
 Mir. Jewell consumed six hours today ir presenting a comprehensive review of the charges made by the employees of inefficiency and financial misinan- agement on the part of the railroads :; the employees statistics on living costs and human standards of living and the unions rebuttal to the carriers data on wages in other industries and the cost of living.
 None of the evidence introduced by the railroads would Justify wage GU, ty the board, Mir. Jewell contended declared that any argument for q wage award he said, was on an Amer jean standard of living" reiterating the employees stand that any reduction now would reduce the wages of unskilled railway laborers to bare subsistence. "The attitude which should guide the board in it's decision" Mir. Jewell said
 
 should be looked upon merely as com pensation for the losses sustained by the employees during the war when wages failed to keep pace with the cost of living"
 MT. Jewell also declared that no wage decision could rightly be made until the rules controversy. now pending be- fore the board and referred to the in dividual roads for regotiations. was tErashed ont and an agreement reached. To establish a new wage schedule before new agreements are negotiated would preclude the possl- bility of reaching any agreement.' NJ. Jewell said. Such a decision. he added. would provoke the employees anew and Lerpetuate strife and misunderstood ing
 When AIr- Jewell concluded. the board took short recess to take up the big four brotherhoods at {. night session.

Washington. May Special. Sixty odd Alabama boys who offered their lives and gave of their limbs and health for their country were visited cheereI and congratulated at Walter Reed hos- pital this evening by the President of the United States.
 It was q miserable day from the stand point of weather conditions. The con tinuation of a three-day rain made out door competitive games impossible, but at noon the soldiers sat down to a south. ern dinner which reminded of Thanks giving or Christmas back home" At ] o clock a basket picnic was laid, nor under the trees but indoors. For this, practically every Alabamian in the city made appearance.
 Thereafter, In the Red Cross headquar- ters, the members of the delegation spoke to the boys. Senators Underwood and Hehin opened this feature of the programme, and the House members followed.
 The President, with his escort, tp- peared at o'clock. He spoke of the courage and devotion of the American soldiers in general, and of the Alabama soldiers in particular. He told of his de- light in mingling with the wounded boys and iutimated that weather conditions, however severe, could not cause him to lose the opportunity.
 At[ef the ITeStQtnA ndu SOIes tue SOL diers and guests danced until midnight.
 FIRST DUTY TO SOLDIERS
 Tn presenting the President to the audience Senator Underwood declared that the first duty of the republic was to care for the soldiers who offered their lives on the altar of the country. He declared that from his service with and Knowledge of the President, he knew that the chief executive had iden- tlcal views.
 'A liked the speech of Senator Cn- ecrwood' said the President There is no question but that the first duty of this government is to care for it's wounded hordes. And I intend that it Ghall bel done in order that everyone of you would be as thoroughly equipped as possible to meet opportunities when they present themselves"
 The President dwelt at length on the fact that sectional lines are obliter- ated.
 If after the Spanish American war; he said, "a single scar from the Civil var remained, it was completely healed as result of the World war. 1 was in the capital of a southern state when the Maine was destroyed l saw in tha ( southern capital the same resentment that expressed itself in every other capital l knew then that the Civil war was thing of the past
