LAST CALL MADE
 FOR FULL VOTES
President Of Women Voters Stresses Need To Members

Miss Belle Sherwin, president of the National League of Women Voters, has issued the following last-minute ap- peal to voters to "come out to vote" /"
 From coast to coast, in hamlets, towns and city wards, all summer, the work of preparing to get out the vote has gone merrily, vigorously, intensive ly on. A new habit appeared to be forming at the primaries. In widely separated states the percentage of in- crease in votes in primary elections promised new popular interest in gov ernment. The impetus and interest car ried over to many first registration days with new startling high records of registered voters.
 "Now, Tuesday, on one day only, each registered voter is not merely called to the voting booths to cast q vote, but is individually needed there if 25-per cent increase over the 1920 vote is to be won. It is each individ- ual vote that counts and that is counted. No one can truthfully say that her or his vote does not mat ter.
 "From the tinest voting precinct on record-where the entire legal popu- lation numbers one woman and one man-to the million and half reg stered men and women in the great est city in the land, each voter, for herself, and for himself, and all on the same day, must troop to the polls. Only so shall government by the people for the people become more than glori- OuS words"

 PREDICTED HEAVY

minute, could not be verified Saturday and were discounted by party leaders.
 The county democratic executive com mittee Saturday sent Mir. Minor copy of resolution urging him to withdraw from the race, but he declined, saying that the people nominated him and he would not quit. He reiterated that he is democrat and intends to vote for all party nominees.
 Chairman R. B. Evins of the state democratic executive committee, an nounced Saturday that his committee would take no action in Minors case in the following statement:
 The county democratic executive committee of Jefferson county hay ing met, considered the Minor case and adjourned, it is now possible for me, without an invasion of its province, to state that as chairman of the state democratic executive committee, I have taken, will take, and can take no ac- tion in this matter for two sufficient reasons:
 1. The principle of local self-govern- ment has been one of fundamental doc tries of the Democratic party since it was organized, and properly so, since it is the essential basis of personal lib- erty, and the only sure protection against official tyranny. The party machinery in this state, through both the statute law, which now controls primaries in Alabama, and the party rules, has been organized upon this principle, to the end that in purely county matters the county committee is invested with full and original jurisdic- tion. Out of respect to the plain right of the county committee to deal with the Minor case without interference, and with fixed intention upon my part to confine myself within the clearly de- fined boundaries of my official power, l have refused heretofore, by act or word to invade in any way the jur- isidction of the county commitete of Jefferson county in this matter. To the chairman of the county committee. who personally asked my views, l gladly gave them; but 1 have declined and will aways decline to attempt to go over the head of any lawful authority or to assume to dictate it's action or trespass upon it's prerogatives.
 No Power To Act
 Z The nomination of Mir. Minor was not made by the state committee, nor by the county committee of Jefferson county, but by the Democratic electorate O. the county. The democratic voters of the county. The democratic voters of stitute the party. and the several com mittees are but the agents of the party without power to annul the action of the people themselves.
 As l have stated, primary elections are now governed by the laws of the state and no committee has the power to revoke any nomination except upon a contest brought ill the time, and for the causes specified in the statute. The time within which Mir. Minors nomina- ton migh have been contested expired months ago, and an act of party dis loyalty occurring after the nomina tion has been made and certified is not one of the grounds of contest
 The county committee in requesting
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-02

the resignation of Mir. Minor, recognized that it had no power to revoke his nom- ination. His nomination was the act of the people themselves. It is final and not subject to revocation by any agent of the people in official position.
 Regrets Incident
 The civil courts, of course, would have no jurisdiction over any proceed ing to remove MT. Minor from the ticket. No lawyer would hold to the contrary. Numerous members of the state committee, and eminent democratic lawyers, with whom I have conferred, unanimously agree that the positions which l here take are correct.
 It is to be regretted that MT. Minor did not yield 10 the request of the county committee, and it is to be hoped that he will yet recognize the propriety of its resolution. While from Mir. Minor statement it appears that he did not view his contribution to the republican campaign fund as an act of party dis loyalty, it remtins that the act of u democratic nominee in contributing to the republican campaign fund connot be otherwise regarded. A proper re- gard for the welfare of the party to which he asserts he belongs. would leave no other course open to MT. Minor than to tender his resignation, whatever might have been the motives which prompted the thing which he did. Respectfully,
 k. B. EVINS, Chairman, State Democratic Executive Committee.

LOEB TO OPEN SHOP
 FOR MILLINERY
Exclusive Establishment To Be Remodeled At
 1909 Third Avenue

Leopold Loeb, of the firm of I.oveman, Joseph and Loeb, will establish an ex- elusive millinery shop at 1909 Third avenue, three-story building now oc- cupied by M. Well and Brother, 1t was announced Saturday. MT. Loeb will not sever connections with his firm, it is stated, but continue in charge of the millinery department there.
 ! A pretentious program of remodelIng and decoration to make the store one of the prettiest in the south, is promised by MT. Loeb. To the buying public familiar with the reputation he has made in his 34 years in Birmingham, this message is of considerable import The shop will be ready for opening be- tween January and 15.
 The rise of Leopold Loeb in the re- tail business world here is one based on a shrewd mind and an ambition to master all details of the retail business. He began as cash boy for the com pany ill 1890 and year later, when the store was moved from 1915 Second ave- nue to PIP Nineteenth street, was made bookkeeper. From this point his ad- vance was rapid for in 1896 A. B. Love- man asked him to take charge of the millinery department.
 MT. Loeb's desire to serve the public brought an extensive expansion of the millinery department. He engaged a New York saleslady and trimmer to bring the most outstanding styles in hats to Birmingham and the public's grati- tude was reflected in huge increase in sales. Since that time he has kept a close eye on women's tastes and dress with the result that his department has obtained considerable fame throughout the state and the south. In his new venture, Mir. Loeb will endeavor to give the same service and satisfaction which have made him a style dictator to large number of women.
 The store of MT. Loeb is the third big move in retail business in month. With the others, the taking over of part interest in Hood and Wheeler by Brom- berg, and the new store of Herman Saks and Sons, it further emphasizes the growth of Birmingham as a retail center. A long-term lease has been signed on the new store by MT. Loeb through the Meyer and Engel Real Estate and Insurance company.

Paul Gallups, IF, Has A Fighting Chance Of
 Recovery

Paul Gallups, 12, son of City, Detec- tive A. NJ. Gallups, has fighting chance of recovery from the bullet wounI inflicted by Mrs. Amy Hall, 63, when she fired at a score of Hallo- ween pranksters who were tearing down her fence Friday night, according to physicians at Ensley infirmary late Saturday.
 Mrs. Hall, who is on the verge of hysteria over the shooting, was releas- ed in $2,5O0 bail in Judge G. M. .Taylor's inferior court at Ensley Satur- day afternoon for hearing which will be held when the final outcome of the boys injury is ascertained. The aged woman said she only intended to scare the group who had surrounded her home at 500 Third street. Pratt City, and did not mean to fire the weapon.
 T was not aware it had discharged" Mrs. Hall told police, until heard the poor boy scream and saw him fall"
 Mrs. Hall said her son had loaded the revolver and instructed her to shoot into the ground if she was bothered by Halloween Inischief-makers. Ap- bearing on the front porch, she ordered the boys to leave, she said. After that she does not remember distinctly what happened, according to police.
 Several Pratt City boys who were in the group in the vicinity of the Hall home testified today that young Gallups was 50 feet from the fence and was not participating in the work of tear ing it down.
 The boy, who lives at BOP Market street. Pratt City, was shot through the abdomen. His condition has showed no improvement in the past 24 .hours, hospital attendants said.

5000 ATTEND
 RECORD EXHIBIT ]. OF HOUSEWIVES
Many Manufacturers Buy Booths For Show
 Next Year

The third annual Manufacturers and Housewives Exhibit was a great sue. cess. This statement was made by ex. hibitors, spectators and the committed shortly before the doors were closed for the last time at Il o'clock Satur- day night.
 From every point of view, the exposi- tion is said to have achieved it's pur- pose and to have demonstrated beyond doubt that Birmingham people are keen ly interested in Birmingham-made prod ucts. So interested was Birmingham that approximately SO,0O0 people vis- ited the auditorium du.ing the week, it was estimated by Mrs. J. M. Hankins, president of the Jefferson County League of Women Voters, under whose auspices the exhibit was given. The crowd on the final day was estimated to have been nearly 10000 and there was no let up in the procession of spec. tators who filed past the booths from the time the doors were opened until late last night.
 Study Products
 Never before has the city had such q wonderful opportunity to learn and study the wide range. of products made in Birmingham, Mrs. Hankins asserted, and the weeks exposition has given citizens new conception of the high quality of Birming articles. No finer testimonial for the success of the exhibit is possible, it was said, than the enthusiasm which the manu- facturers and exhibitors showed Satur- day, when q large number signed agree ments for space in the 1925 exhibit. The board of health, which this year occupied two booths, has requested that it's space be doubled next year and sev- eral other exhibitors also have requested larger space. "a
 Demand Continues
 'We shall be compelled next year to place booths in the corridors if the de- mand for space continues" Mrs. Han kins said Tt hardly seems possible that the annual exhibit has taken such high place in Birmingham's ci9c life since it was suggested to the fleague three years ago by l.. Sevier.'
 The only exhibit in the vast arena. which was not Birmingham-made product was Sasanoff's painting, "The Man of Sorrows" which was displayed Wednesday night and then kept on the stage because of the great interest in the picture. This lad a Birmingham appeal, because of the efforts being made-by the Christ at Kilby committee under John W. Altman to raise funds to assist wives and children of prison CTS in the state penitentiary.
 Award Prizes
 Music for the final day was furnished by the Phillips High school band, which played both afternoon and evening. The only other feature on the program was the distribution of the grand prizes Saturday night. Over 20 prizes, rang ing in value from $10 to $1OO, were given away. The prizes. included sev- eral tons of coal, wardrobe trunk, breakfast set and other articles, do- mated by. the exhibitors. School children who visited the ex- hibit were under the care of F. N. Sharpe, custodian of the auditorium. who Saturday thanked school officials, school teachers, and all the exhibitors for their attention to the children.
