STATES RIGHTS ISSUE
REVIVED IN ALABAMA
Repeal Advocates Push Fight a:
Drys Stress Moral and Eco
nomic Angles.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 23.-The
doctrine Of States rights, which sent
the South into civil conflict and still is
a nursery lesson in Dixie, has become
an issue in the prohibition fight in Ala
bama
Repeal advocates who seek to put
Alabama in the repeal column when
this State votes on the liquor question
July 18 have pushed States rights and
party regularity to the front as per-
suasive weapons. Prohibitionists are
stressing the moral and economic angles
of the question.
How can voters of Alabama expect
to retain the right to regulate their
| jury system and their election system
and at the same time deny other States
| the right to regulate their own interna.
affairs?" said A. M. Tunstall, manager
| OF repeal forces in the campaign.
The jury system of Alabama ano
other Southern States has drawn fire
from several quarters recently on con-
tention colored people are denied the
| right to serve on juries. The South's
primary system has been under fire
| often since the reconstruction era.
I'm voting for repeal, Alabama, will
| say to all States that there will be nc
! interference in the future with their
| own decisions regarding internal prob
lens" Tunstall said.

Kenneth said that in the rehearsal
of the crime with authorities On May
7 he did not point out the entrance he
actually used to enter the cellar of the
house because you didn't give me a
chance" He said he told Chief Hall
the location of the entrance he used.
In contrast to his department yester-
day, when he cried several times
Kenneth was bearing up well under his
grilling.
Kenneth reiterated that his chief con-
Germ was for the safety of his wife and
child while he was dealing with the
gang"
Q.-Werent you fearful, knowing that
this gang was dangerous?
Al was fearful for my wife and boy
Q.-Why didn't you ask Bill his
name?
Al knew McMath was behind it.
Crossley stepped forward waving the
confession, and said:
You had no knowledge McMath was
behind this and the only person you
knew was behind this was Bill"

No indication was given that this
latest move in the announced program
of "Germanizing" the youth constituted
a challenge to a manifesto issued this
week by Catholic leaders, who claimed
the right to carry on religious, health
and occupaticnal training of youths
within the church.
In the interview, printed in the
Danish Berlingske Tidende, Chancellor
Hitler was quoted as saying he believed

The secret police suspended for one

the ground that the publication had

commander of those units, went volun-
tarily instead of by compulsion to the
police for a hearing. Bismarck is a

Within an hour after Thomas J. DON

Repeal Council, filed the suit, Judge
Bevis issued the writ, returnable July 3,
and set July 10 as the date for argu-
ment of the case.
Besides asking a writ of prohibition
to prevent certiflcatiOn of the referndum
petition, the repealists requested a writ
of mandamus to compel the Secretary
of State George S. Myers to authorize
the printing of ballots for the election
of 50 delegates at large to the conven-
ton. Gov. White set the election for
November T.
Almost simultaneously with the filing

for Albany Meet
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE,

will be made by the returning dele

Present Open Letter
The delegation going to the Social
lst Conference will bring to the dele
gates the message of the open letter
addressed to the workers of the S. P.
allied trade unions and unemployed
organizations by the Provisional
Committee for the Albany Confer
ence.
This letter points out that a united
front preliminary conference in prep
aration for the Albany conference
had been initiated in the city of New
York by the A. F. of l.. rank and file
committee.
That few days after the call for
the Albany conference had been
issued the leaders of the S. p. an
nounced a separate conference to
take place in New York. AT that
time no place or date for the S. P.
Conference had been specified.
Later, it was announced that. the
Socialist Party conference would take
place on February %, just few days
before the Albany State Conference.
and that the arrangements were such
as to clearly show that the S. p.
officials initiated their conference
move for no other purpose than to
split the ranks Of the workers in the
fight for Unemployment Insurance
and other measures in the interests
Of the workers.
Fight for Unity
The S. P. conference. the letter
points out, is called in the evening
when no adequate discussion or plans
can possibly be worked out. More
than that, militant organizations
which have been in the forefront of
the fight for unemployment relief
and other workers struggles are
barred from the Socialist Party
Conference
The S. P. Conference delegates will
be urged to unite with and support
the Albany Conference. and thereby
create an unbreakable front of labor
to force favorable legislation from
the State legislature.
