Senator Heflin and a others did not attend. The announcement of the re- sult was made by Senator Thad- deus H. Caraway, of Arkansas, who said the conference had also given Senator Robinson a second vyote of confidence on the work as a member of the Special Mexi- can Slush Fund Committee from which committee Heflin asked that Robinson be removed. Heflin, Not Stilled The vote of confidence in Rob- inaon leadership failed to still the voice of Senator Heflin who this afternoon again assailed the party chief, Gov. Smith and the Catholic Church. The assault was made on the floor of the Senate defying the party conference. The Alabaman threw the charge against those who he said passed the question during his absence. Naming Gov. Smith, Heflin said: “It will be arsad day for the party when it takes up with a wet nullifier, Tammanyite and Roman Catholic.” FOUR DEAD IN MYSTERY CASE Given Cough Medicine and Expire 45 Minutes Later i in Hospital 19 ph Senate Unit Rob- | leader, | vestar-| | Jan, Jo dozen CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan, 19~ While the police sought to deter. mine the contents of a bottle of cough medicine which caused the death of James Potter and three members of his family, word came from Stucbenville, his former home, that Potter was once a prominent capitalist there before he lost a fortuné in oil and coal ‘land developments.

But when you try to buy style without the foot aches, then you begin to wonder. For ages men have thought they were compelled to choose between good looks and comfort in their shoes. Perhaps they were — but not today. They ‘ buy the ARCH PRESERVER SHOE — with all the swank in the world — and lo and behold! they discover that something has happened to their old dogs. They have an urge to hustle, to prance, if you want to call it that, and consequently they go happily through their daily 18,908 steps and hardly realize the day has started. There's a pair of these better shoes waiting for your tired, aching feet. In your favorite style, too! ‘Goldstein’s Empormm' | Snoz DEPARTMENT
