tive committee elected r. II. Angel OF

Is prominent in the banking and real
estate affairs of this section.
Virginia newspapers are commenting
on the fact that Mr.. Angel has re-
Gently given hearty indorsement 10 the
constructive work OF the administration
OF Coy. Byrd. Democrat. This is In
marked contrast with resolutions adopt
ed by the State Republican convention
recently held in Roanoke. These reso-
lutions belittled the work OF Gov. Byrd,
Committee Appointed.
At It's meeting here the executive
committee made plans 10 organize
Southern delegates 10 the Kansas City
convention for the purpose Of persuad-
Ing the convention 10 place a Southern
man on the national ticket. For this

derson, Richmond attorney who was
the Republican candidate for governor
Of Virginia In 1921. IL Is said, how

cratic convention set for June q, Just

the Nation before the Virginia eonven~
ton meets, and the average politician
Is tervently praying that this will be
the case,
Interest among the people Is, how
ever, shown by flood OF communica-
tons reaching the newspapers. These
are either for or against Gov Smith of
New York. The name Of no other can.
