ARNALL QUITS TO
BLOCK TALMADCE
CLAIM TO OFFICE

ATLANTA, = Ellis Arnall re-
signed last Saturday as governor
of Georgia. effectively immedia-
tely after the qualification of the
acknowledgements" in maneu-
yer apparently aimed at blocking
succession of Herman Talmadge to
the office won by his late father
The S9-year-old governor. who
unseated Gene Talmadge in 1912
and who, was ineligible to seek re-
election when Talmadge won
fourth non-consecutive term in
1916, dramatically removed him
self from the controversy which
has torn Georgia since death
claimed the defender of white
supremacy" His resignation auto
matically makes NJ. E. Thompson
claimant to the governorship
the moment he is sworn in as
Georgias first ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
1t will be effective regardless of
whether the legislature sustains
Hermans claims to office based
on a few hundred write-in votes

gineered on election day as lin
surance" in case Gene Talmadge
died.
Arnall's move appeared to pre-
clude any situation in which he
and Herman Talmadge might be
rival governors.

Black Sea Riviera Enjoys Big Russian "Velvet Season"
(BY Tom Whitney, (P) NeWSfeatureS)

MOSCOW, (P)-September and early October was the Velvet Season" on the Black Sea riviera. Thousands of Soviet citizens from all over the country, with perhaps the single largest contingent from Moscow, hurried SouthWard to stretch out the brief Russian sum- mer for another month or six weeks in the sunshine.
 While September mornings in the Soviet capital were chilly and while there were frequent frOsts at night, it was the height of the vacation season in Sochi, Gagary and many other seaside resorts of the Caucasus.
 The days were very hot there, and the nights so warm that open air restaurants were thronged by lightly dressed vacationers far in to the evening.
 The whole coastline of the Black Sea from Sukhumi 10 Sochi. is dotted with sanatoriums. rest homes and other refuges. The forty miles or so between the cen. ters of Gagary and Cochi is one continuous line of new and old luxurious and more simple vaca. tion institutions belonging to va. rious organizations and used by their employees.
 Sochi and Gagary vacations are usually fairly serious affairs ir the Russian tradition of combin- ing medical care with rest anc amusement.
 Many Russians take the sulphur baths in MatSesta. Some live in sanatoriums where they have a strenuous and rigid regimen.
 In typical sanatorium the morning is devoted to setting up exercises, breakfast, consultations

 Then comes lunch, rest, a ses- sion on the beach getting tanned, then wash-up and supper.

Manders Wins
 Court Action
(The Anchorage Times)

Ruling that Attorney John Man ders had rendered extremely valuable services" Judge Anthony J. Dimond last week sustained all Manders' claims against Mrs. Elizabeth Cross.
 Manders had maintained that he had been instrumental in saving Mrs. Cross the forfeiture of some liquor, whose value he said was S8500. Mrs. Cross, famed queen of the Arctic" had questioned the amount of fee Manders had charg- ed.
 The Anchorage attorney was awarded judgment ofg $l655.55 plus interest from Aug. 2, l944. In addition, Attorney J. Gerald Will Hams, Manders' counsel in the court action here, will be paid $100 by the defendant.
 Mrs. Cross said that she didn't know whether or not she had ac- tually hired Manders to represent her in the case in question. There is a fair inference that she did so employ him." the judge ruled. Her reliance on the existing friendly relations had no bear ing on the case" he continued,
 Three prominent Anchorage at torneys had testified that Man ders' fee for the action involved was reasonable.

B-J.L Will Lay Off $500 Workers In Alaska

SEATTLE, (P) - The approach of Alaskan cold, which was as fearsome as 60 degree below at Fairbanks at times last winter, will result in the layoff of approx imately $500 workers on war de- partment projects, the Birch Johnson-Lytle construction firm revealed Saturday.
 Projects at Nome, Whittier, Fairbanks, Mile 26, Anchorage and other Alaskan points are ef- fected.
 D. L. Cheney, general manager of the construction firm, said about 2,500 employees will be kept on the job sites throughout the winter.
 Cheney said the southward movement of the laid-off workers started about three weeks ago.
 Work now is being rushed on the framing of barracks and other buildings to build up as much in- side work as possible. before the severe cold sets in. There will be considerable finish work for car penters, plumbers, electricians, painters and other building crafts men during the winter.
 Employees released in good standing will be given first con- sideration when labor recruiting starts next year, Cheney said.
