SPAIN PREPARING FOR FIRST ELECTION AFTER
 MANY YEARS; PREDICTION
By CLARENCE DUBOSE "A, P. Staff Writer)


 MADRID, Sept. 13.-Spain is oiling up it's rusty election ma
 chinery.
 Registration of voters is un-
 dcrway throughout the nation
 in readiness for the parliament
 tary elections which Premier
 Bcrenguer has said may be
 called the latter part of this
 year.
 A new cortes, or parliament, the first in eight years. will be as sembled, if this plan is carried out. Political organizations are lining up their local forces in every dis trict, town and city, and prospec- tive candidates for the congress of deputies, or lower house, are getting ready for the race. Groups supporting the monarchy are organizing with especial thor oughness.
 Republican forces, while less CO., hesive and handicapped by less facilities for organization because they oppose the established govern ment, are trying to get their sup porters into politically efficient groups.
 Impartial observers think at pres ent that the prospects indicate mon- archists will control the new cortes, with republicans having a minor ity, perhaps small, in the chamber and little or no strength at all iii the senate.
 Many Parties
 There are now between 35 and 40 so-called political parties, with more groups in formation.
 Fifteen are seriously considered as parties. Most of the others have handful of members and 9 few dollars to pay for printing a proclamation.
 The old cleavages of liberal and conservative parties existing be- fore the Primo de Rivera dictator ship, are spread into several left and right wing divisions of each of these two main groups. Socialist, labor, republican, syndicalist, com munists and other party groups have formed new parties.
 The principal political parties supporting the Monarchy are:

TROOPS GUARD ALABAMA
TRIAL

Troy, Ala, June 6.-(By The AS
ISOLATED Negro Press With mem
bers of the state militia standing
guard, Robert Giles was tried and
convicted on charges of attempting
to assault young white woman,
here Thursday and was sentenced to
nineteen years and eleven months IN
the state prison. y ISL
When the attempted attack oc-
Cured feeling was high against
Giles and only the prompt action OF
the officers in rushing him to the
state prison saved him from mob
violence. TO prevent any lynching
when he was returned here for trial,
the governor ordered troops to es-
cort him hee and to quad the pris-
oner during the trial.
While the courtroom was crowded
with whites and hundreds milled
about the outside, there was no dis
turbance whatever. The effect OF
the presence of the troops and addi-
tional law enforcement officers dam
pened whatever feeling there might
have been.
Immediately following the close Of
the trial, Giles, with his military
escort returned to Kilby Prison where
he will serve his sentence. c
