CLAYTON OPPOSES BILL
Says Election Of Superintendents Would Be Mistake

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 12- Present methods of selecting county superintendents of education is far superior to the method of election through the direct vote of the people, is the statement received here today from Dr. P. P. ClaXton, former pro- vost marshal of the University of Alabama.
 q believe it would be equivalent to an annual loss of not less than s1 100000 of school funds. It would
 be better to keep this amount in the treasury for other purposes or throw it into the Alabama river than ex- change the present method of se- lecting county superintendents for a method wisely discarded eight years ago." pr. Claxton said.
