REPUBLICANS WILL
 URGE LONG DEFEAT. r OR CHAIR IAN
Leaders Throughout State Assemble Here for Con- ference to Dust Aspi-
 rant in Recent Contest

At meeting Tuesday night of 47 leading republicans of the state, a resolution was unanimously passed denouncing any move that might be made to re-elect Pope M Long as state chairman of the republican held at the Metropolitan hotel.
 Personal ambition for office was pointed out as the chief reason for the disapproval of Long. It was said that he was partly responsible for disunion in the party of the state. Concensus of opinion seemed to be, among those speaking, that MT. Long, If reelected, would aggra- vate discord in the party and other wise hinder any progress that be made. according to members attend Ing the meeting.
 Judge T. H. Davidson of Oneonta presided with J. A. Downer serving as secretary
 The resolution as passed follows:
 We the undersigned republicans of Alabama hereby declare that in our opinion and Judgement the peace and harmony of the republican party in this state will be served in the election of a new state chairman of the state executive committee at the convention to be held September T. 1922.
 "rhe present state chairman in his efforts to serve his own personal ambitions, has brought serious di- vision and dissention in tho party of this state. When the president had made important appointments In the state he has been party to mak- Ing. or having made unfounded charges against such appointments.
 eve believe that the reelection of the present state chairman would but widen the breach and add to the faotional differences that now exist and we have no doubt that is the desire of great majority of the re- publicans of the state that new man be placed at the head of the party organization and we hereby pledge ourselves to work for that result, to the end that harmony may again come to the party of thit state.'

 Each Evening

Beginning July 3, the Alabama Power company will inaugurate the broadcastng of market quotations over its radiophone 'w s r." at 2:3o o'clock. every afternoon except Sun cay. thus supplementing the enter i tainment features now sent out with a Service of practical value.
 It is intended to broadcast the closing quotations on the New York Stock Exchange, the New York Cot Market, the Chicago Board of Trade, LberN Bond prices and the Morris Aven6e (Brmingham), quotations on fruits, produce. live stock, hides and tallow, fish, grain, feedstuff and poultry In addition, it is possible that other information of practical or immediate news value. together with lectures and crop news of espe- cial value to the farmers will also be given.
 This service will afford the farm CTS of Alabama. Mississippi. Tennes- see and Georgia their first opportu- nifty to receive first hand the latest news and quotations from tho New Orleans, Chicago and New York ex- changes In other words. the farm CT who has cotton to sell will know a few minutes after the markets close just what his cotton Is worth, thereby eliminating the necessity of driving into the city with his cot ton and not knowing what 1t will bring until after he reaches there.
 This new service is being inaugu- rated by the Alabama Power com- pany in the belief that it will be of service to the thousands within the range of it's stations who are in- tcrested in receiving such informa- ton. As the existence of the ser vice becomes better known. many re- ceiving sets will undoubtedly be in- stalled by brokers. business houses, cooperative growing and marketing associations and individual farmers.
