By Associated Press

Topeka, Kans., July 15.--Is print ing the Bible good newspaper fea- ture? Will the average person read the Bible if published in this way?
 After printing a weekly serial from the Bible for three months, Arthur J. Carruth. managing editor of The Topeka State JournM, de- clares that the publication of the Bible has proved to be the greatest success of any feature ever printed by The State Journal. Moreover. 1t Is being read by many subscribers as faithfully as would be the install ments of popular novel. Carruth states.
 The publication of the Bible serially has had a marvellous ef- feet" said MT. Carruth. 'It has shown that the subscribers are sin- matter of a religious ehacacter, and also has shown to the public that the newspapers do not print only the sensational. that they do not attempt to appeal primarily to the masses and that they do not neglect the church."
 Nationwide Interest
 As an indication Of the interest taken in the publication of the Bible, Mir. Carruth stated he has received inquiries from every state In the na- ton, many letters from Canada and a number of communications from foreign countries. number of Kansas newspapers have taken up the publication of the Bible since The Journal started 1t. MT. Carruth stated. He said out of about SO minis ters in Topeka, he has received com munications from all and that in only two or three cases had they criti- cized the publication.
 The publication of the Bible was undertaken by The State Journal nt the suggestion of Dr. Charles M. Sheldon of Topeka, editor of The Christian Herald and well-known author. Each installment includes about 5000 words. The Weymouth text of the New Testament, trans lation In everyday English, Is used.

 Laws Are Pending
By Associated Press

Hinshaw, presi- dent of the Prohibition Foundation, made public by the letter recently MT. Hinshaw visited Austria last De- tober in the interests of the prohi- bition movement.
 The federal minister for social administration has allocated the surn of fifty millions for this purpose" the letter continued. And the na- tionai council will pass a law in &C., cordance with which this money will be employed. A big committee Is in course of formation to which most members of the American Austrian committee will also belong. Altogether the general feeling at present in Austria is favorable to the idea of alcoholism being fought by means of public measures.
 Consumption High
 Large sections of the population realize at last that nation In our present economic distress cannot af- ford such high rate of expensive consumption of alcohol, and that therefore, all facilities for advanc- ing this consumption must be re- moved or reduced.

situation from every locality and | find that Brandon has this county practically solid. 1dont believe there is single precinct In Lamar county that will not give Branden all the votes"
 Mobile-Wflliam B. Inge, Mobile: Judge Brandon has many friends in Mobile county. No substantial oppo- sition has developed to him hero. The best authorities estimate the vote in the county at the coming prima- ries will be approximately 10000, of which Judge Brandon will get at least 5000"
 Morgan-Dr. J. L. Gunter. Albany: At the outset of the gubernatorial campaign 1t was evident in this soc ton that Judge w. W. Brandon was the favorite of the voters and as the day draws nigh to election his popu- laritS has steadily increased. It is my opinion his majority in Morgan county will be the largest ever given candidate for state office where there was opposition. I may say. in conclusion. that the prospective vote in this county for his opponent is negligible"
 Pickens-A H. Dabbs. carrollton: T have taken occasion to elicit ex- pressions from people in all sections
 
 Nttie opposition to Judge Brandon, I am confident that he will carry the county at least three Or four to one in the August primary and possibly moro. There is no possible chance for anyone to boat BIu Brandon in west Alabama While hts friends would no dosabt Do glad to have him visit among them and speak. do not deem any campaigning to be necessary In this county"
 Shelby-yufsn X Haynes, Cof,rnsbia: 'The Brandon canpaign committee in Shelby county has been very active in their efforts to arrive at the real standing of the two candidates for governor fp. this section and from all data in hand and information received from all sources they say conserva- tive estimate places Brandon's vote at from 95 to sS per cent of all the votes cast in the domocEatic primary and that Shelby county win cast from 1,8oo to 1000 votas in the primarN
 Mcdowell for lieutenant governor will also get~a large majority in this section"

QUIET PREVAILS
Strike Is Peaceful at Sheffield and
 Tuscumbia

Sheffield. July 15.-tspecial.) )-Ths strike situation in this city and Tsns- cumbia offers a fine example, for re- spect of law and order. Not single violation. technical or actual, has oc- cured In either city and the men and the officials of the carriers are in the very best of humor.
 A recent visit to this district by high officials of the Southern rail- way brought out the fact that the men and officials are on the most cordial relations, even though the six shop crafts are on strike. An other noticeable thing in this imme- diate section Is that the railroad of ficials are not making any attempt to fill the places of the men who are out.
 Train service Is being maintained and up to the present time no trains have been annulled. The conduct of the men has won many friends fer their cause.

 All for Brandon
 Jackson-John E. Proctor, Scotts- boro: "On April l, I wrote Mr. A.

Graves Busy Speaking
 Colonel Graves was not in Mont gomery during the week. being on a speaking tour in northeast Alabama. His law partner was requested to communicate with him in order thac his pre-election statement might be obtained, but he replied that Colonel Graves preferred to remain among the voters and carry his message di- rect to the people than to submit it through newspapers.
 The estimate of Brandon head quarters was based on reports fndi- eating Brandon majorities in the various counties, the average reach ed from these reports being a little more than 80 per cent. However, several counties reported the opposi- tion vote to be negligible.
 Some of the reports made public Saturday follow:
 75 Per Cent Brandon
