BUSINESS PICKS !.
new LACKEY To
REPLACE OSCAR
Choice for Senator
Also a Millionaire
tnx The Federated prsssl


WASHINGTON, July 2. - (FP) =
Oscar Underwood, big business sena
tor from Alabama, is about to an
nounee his retirement from public
life, and to designate John Il. Bank
head, brother Of the congressman and
son Of the late senator, as the man
approved by the conservative indus
trial interests of Alabama as his sue
eessor.
There will be no labor or farmer
candidate in the democratic primary
contest which will decide the issue
next summer, but half a dozen as
pirants for the favor Of organized
business will be early in the field.
The great mass of the people of the
state will have nothing to do with
choosing their next senator.
Is Millionaire.
Bankhead. who recently sold coal
mine at a price reputed at $1,OOO,OOO,
inherits the powerful and corrupt pol
itical machine built up by his father
and the chief corporate interests in
the state, and he is expected to spend
some hundreds Of thousands Of dol
lars. if necessary. to win. His chief
rival, former Gov Kilby, is likewise
rich and is expected to be prodigal
with campaign funds.
Kilby is notorious as the governor
who induced the organized coal min
ers. in their heroic strike of 1922, to
select him as arbitrator. Once chosen,
he delivered a decision whose bitter
ness toward the strikers and their
union bore all the earmarks of prep
aration in the operators camp long
before he was put in position to be-
tray the mems cause.
Chamber of Commerce Gives Orders.
Underwood has recently been tour
ing Alabama. speaking before his ro-
tary and Kiwanis friends, telling them
that he wants to retire, but saying
that if the people demand that he
continue to carry the heavy burden
of public office he will feel bound to
consider their OplulOus At tHO Se'AANS
time his friend, Bankhead, has sent
to the reactionary press OF the state
his own campaign material, with por-
traits of himself, ready for publica-
ton on the day that Underwood an
nounces withdrawal and asks his
friends to endorse Bankhead. The old
Bankhead machine always supported
Underwood in the house and senate.
In the background, pulling the
wires, is the Associated Industries of
Alabama, a close organization of the
coal operators, steel trust, and all
other big corporations in business
there. It's secretary is a former Off
cial of the Southern Railway. The
Alabama Power Co. is one of its guild
ing elements. This federation of big
business will elect Underwood's sue
cessOr.

to the Rio Grande, fixing the middle OF
the bed of the river as it then ran, as
the boundary.
The river moved southwark, thru
long years of wearing away the south
bank, until today the old boundary
stands in the American city of Ell
Paso, and the Mexican area, known as
the Chemical, is laid out in streets and
railroad yards that are American
owned thru purchase from the orig
inal Mexican owners.
An agreement was reached between
the two countries in 1910 for arbitra-
ton of the Mexican claim for political
rule of this territory, and Canadian
was chosen as arbitrator. He decid-
ed, in 1911, that all lands south of a
certain line which he drew should be
Mexican. The Mexican government ac-
cepted his ruling, but the Washington
government rejected it, claiming he
had exceeded his powers.
Recently this dispute was revived
and Secretary Kellogg was under
stood to be negotiating settlement,
by compromise" Now the Mexican
papers are suggesting that the attack
on President Gales is to serve as a
bluff in securing a better "compro-
mise" for the United States.
