it, the signing of the compact at Santa

tives of seven states allotted the waters

and domestic use. is one Of the big
events Of history.

However, il seems likely the compact
will go thru as signed, in order TO
avoid litigation between the several
states whose future is involved.

The report appearing in the Sunday

the political meeting and debate at Mil
ton Saturday was as usual misleading
and ridiculously one-sided, and is re-
sented by the citizens of Santa Rosa

The meeting was called to order at
11:45 by Mr.. John Collins, the Postmaster
at Milton. and the accredited campaign
manager for Mr.. Smithwicl in that coun-
ty. Mr.. Hancock was the first to be
introduced and the hearty ovation given

scented his claims to the office, and the
reasons why his opponent should not be
returned, stressing the fact that he has
signally failed to support tho Ford efforts
to acquire Muscle Shoals while IN Wash
ington, and was only championing this
measure now when he found the people
were demanding it, Mr.. Smithwicl con-
sun1ed over an hour defending his posi-
ton and making a vicious personal attack
on Walter s. Richardson. who he claimed
is Hancocls's campaign manager Mr.
Hancock in his rejoinder read q letter
from the Chief Justice Of the Supreme
Court OF Alabama stating that Mr.. Rich
ardson was a member OF the bar Of that
state, in good standing and a highly re-
spected citizen. He also stated that he
was perfectly willing 20 compare his cam

manager Mr. Fred Schad of Pensacola.

speaking itinerary and he not having had
any previous invitation. he did not make
those two places in the afternoon, but
spent the time with his thousands OF
friends at Milton who treasured him that
