 Just Lately
 This month she has supplied a splendid new 9x12 rug, tn gift of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb, and a 6x9 rug which she took from her own home "because the boys needed it for their front hall worse than ] did. I'd rather give 1t to them than anybody else l know"
 An oil heater also has gone out some handmade pillow cases, five good single sheets for the cots, and two more chairs.
 Linen is especially needed" she urged; and while the place is look ing livable and pleasant, of course there are lots of things that could be added--and which would be lovely to add. Mrs. Henry Swope- bless her heart-has promised to give the troop brand new flag; and to that the boys are looking forward with great glee. The one the troor now is using is worn and must be replaced"

Of course, this had the effect of leaving the system of nam ing appellate judges in primary un- changed.
 Another fight for a change In the system may be expected when the state democratic executive committee meets two years from now to arrange for the state primary. The old state democratic executive committee will retire in January and the new com r.ittee elected in the primary will succeed it. Those in favor of taking candidates for appellate judges out ol the general melee which comes with state political campaign will propose, first, that a state conven- ton be held for the nomination -of judges and, if they fail in this, will urge a separate primary

DISPUTE ARISES AS
 JUDICIARY VOTE
Henry P. White Maintains Democratic Body Indorsed Separate Primary For
 Judges
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau, The Age Herald, 221-2 First National Bank Buiidir

Montgomery September 16.-(Spe- ciaD.-Did the state democratic con vention last week adopt a resolution requiring separate primary for the nomination of judicial officers or did 1t adopt the minority report of the judiciary committee which provided that judicial officers should continue to be nominated in the gen eral state primary?
 This question has become an i'm : portant one during the week. Henry P. White, delegate from the state at-large, insists that the convention adopted his substitute resolution which provided that judicial officers should be nominated by the demo- cratic party in a separate primary. Delegates to the state convention who were consulted did not seem to agree with Mr. White and contended that the state convention intended to vote against any change in the present, system of nominating jpdi- cial candidates.
 If the issue is not settled to the satisfaction of all persons now it will come before the state demo- cratic executive committee for de- cision when it meets two years hence to provide for the general state primary.
 There is no dispute that the fol- lowing things occurred in connection with the issue during the closing hours of the convention:
 The judiciary committee returned a majority report which recommend ed that candidates for the supreme court and court of appeals in the ar vention. A minority report recom- mended that the democratic party continue to name these judicial of ficers in statewide primaries. By vote of the convention the minority report was substituted for the major ity report A motion then was made to lay both the majority and minor ity reports on the table. There was a chorus of noes.
 Dispute Begins
 Now the dispute begins: MT. White offered a substitute for the report (the minority report which had taken the place of the majority re- port), the substitute providing that a special state primary should be held for the nomination of judges of the appellate courts.
 Chairman John H. Bankhead then put the question and there was chorus of ayes. Minutes of the con vention do not show whether the chairman referred to the minority Ie- port of the committee, which also fo1s a substitute, or the substitute of MT. Whites for the substitute. The convention then took up other business.
 The convention was working under the rules of the House of Representa- tives The general construction IS that Mir Whites substitute was not adoptel. If it had been adopted as a substitute for the minority report another vote would have been neccs- sary, under the rules of the House of Representatives. as some delc- gates to the state convention may have preferred MT. Whites proposal to the proposal contained in the
