 Man of Ability,
 Say Alabama Solons
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age Herald
 300 Davidson Building

Washington. September 22.-Ala- bama's senators, 1t is learned today. will insist that capable man be appointed collector of internal rev. enue In Alabama.
 Neither Senator Underwood nor Senator Heflin has taken an interest in the scramble of republicans to land patronage jobs, but the man named for collector, 1t is made clear, must have real ability.
 Senator Underwood this afternoon said: The republicans have the right to name republican, and the re- publican they desire to name, but as the job of collector Is a mans sized job, 1t is our duty to see to 1t that the appointee Is a man of outstanding ability and not merely a politician willing to draw the salary"
 As previously reported. it is un- derstood that the President has prac- tically concluded to appoint T. H. Aldrich of Birmingham, collector for Alabama. He is not sponsored by either of the Presidents referees in Alabama
