Montgomery, June s.--tSpecial)-- Contending that the constitutional amendment permitting soldiers and sailors to participate in AlabamS elections without the payment of q poll tax was properly submitted to the voters. but if not the time for attacking its validity has passed. Ray Rushton and Marion Rushton, of Montgomery, Senator R. B. Bivins of Greensboro and Matt H. Murphy of Birmingham today filed with the supreme court brief supplementary to that filed by Orr & Kilcrease of Marshall county.
 The supplemental brief was pre- pared in the interest of thousa nds of ex-service men who have partici- pated in recent elections, but who wIrl be disfranchlsed and even sub 1ected to punishment for criminal offense if the constitutional amend ment Is held to be invalid The at tack on the validity of the amend ment was made by ". L. Fox. who seeks to oust A. B. Hooper. Jr.. from the position of jury commissioner os Marshall county because he did not pay poll tax.
 The brief insists that the lexis iature did appoint definite date fos the election In tn. same manner that the constitution appointed the date Of the submission of amendments oil the days of general elections Tn other words, the writers argued that the constitution makers did not set 3 definite date for the submission of anne Ddments which were to bc e a oTa did say the vote should be taken o1 a day following general election while day following general elec- tfon for state officers is subject 10 change by the Legislature and the day for the general election for fed eral officers Is subject 10 the will of the national Congress.
