END OF BAN ASKED
ON SMITH BOILERS
Heflin and Locke Urge Ala
bama Democrats to Remove
Committees Restrictions.
BY the Associated Press.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, January 4. -
Removal before February / of the re-
striction excluding as candidates from
the 1880 party primary those who OPP
posed the Democratic presidential NOM
inee in 1928shas been asked of the Ala
bama Democratic executive committee =,
Attending a mass meeting last night
at which the request was made, Sena-
tor j. Thomas Heflin declared that "if
this is not done the voters will be given
their chance to act"
A resolution calling upon the COM
mittee to rescind It's action was adopted.
Ben F. Ray, a member of the commit
tee who protested the ruling, drafted
and read the resolution. Several thou
sand persons were present.
Il am not seeking to organize an in
dependent party" Helm said. las a
Democrat am asking the committee
to meet and rescind its action. If it
does not we will have a chance to fight
1t out at the polls"
Hugh A. Locke, who has announced
for governor, expressed views similar
to those voiced by Heflin. Both Locke
and Heflin supported Herbert Hoover
in the 1923 general election.
Locke attacked the action of the
State committee as unconstitutional and
undemocratic.
1WeuLy -SeVen members OF the COM
mittee have determined that all Offices
shall be filled with simon pure AL
Smithites." he said. They set up AL
Smith as the qualification for officers
In Alabama for the next four years"
While fixing qualifications for candi-
dates the State committee at the same
time invited all Democrats who would
pledge themselves to support the party
nominees in the future to take part as
voters in the August primary.
Helm asserted that by the terms of
the ruling of the executive committee
every priest and Catholic in the State
can vote or be candidate while good
Professionals are disfranchised." He said
Although large votes were polled in
Alabama by Harding and Coolidge no
efforts were made by the committee to
discipline those boilers"
Alabama would have gone into the
Republican column in 1928" he said,
"if we had received fair count"
The Democratic presidential ticket
carried Alabama in 1928 by 1000 votes,
as compared with a margin of nearly
$1,000 in 1924.

ASTRONOMER SEES
LESS RAINS IN 1890
Predicter of Bumper Wheat Crop
Declares Ultraviolet
Rays Decreasing.

OTTAWA, January 4.-Lighter rain
fall, reduced crops, better radio recep-
ton. greater danger from forest fires,
fewer electrical storms, increased fur
production-these are some of the pos
sibilitieS suggested by an astronomer
for this year.
DR.. Ralph E. Delury of the Dominion
Observatory looks for lessening of the
suns ultraviolet rays.
While hesitating to make definite
predictions on account of the vagaries
of the suns activities, investigation
leads him to believe 1880 will see a re-
duction of rainfall with the many re-
suits that entails.
All forms of electrical transmission
improve when ultra violet rays are weak.
Static is lessened and radio reception is
favorably affected. The aurora bore
ais, which obstructs long distance tele-
graphic communication, becomes infre-
quent.
DR.. Delurys expectation of bumper
wheat crop in 1928 at the sun spot peak
was followed by the greatest production
of any year in Canadian history.
