Did you ever hear of an v “Iceless” Summer | Drink ? ‘We have “fireless” cookers, but, for- tunately, there is no such thing asan “iceless” Summer drink. For warm weather, drinks without ice would be as strange as the North Pole without snow. Since ice insurance costs less than 1 cent a pound, vou can be an ice spendthrift without taxing your pocketbook. For true Summer comfort use more ice! It is an excellent tonic for frayed nerves.

ALLEN Woman Judge 20,000 Votes .Behind in Senate Race; Cooper Has Margin7 By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio. August 11.— Myers Y. Cooper, Cincinnati busi- ness man and organization candi- date for the Republican nomination for governor, today had assumed & lead of approximately 15,000 votes over ;Thad H. Brown, secretary of State, his closest opponent. This lead was based on returns from 7.260 of the approximately 8,634 precincts in the state, tabulated by the Assoclated Pres: These re- turns included practically complete figures from the urban centers, but only partial reports from the rural sections What the rural vote would show generally was regarded as a toss-up. Cooper’s dry strength, based on his indorsement by the Anti- Saloon League. was offset at least ewhat by the power of Brown's onal organizations in many of the agricultural counties. Others Far Behind. None of the other candidates was within striking distance of the lead- he vote on the Republican guber- natorial race from 6854 precincts Cooper, 140.752; Thad Foregone conclusions that Gov.

Florence E. Allen, State Supreme Court justice and candidate for the Democratic nomination for United States Senator, seemed to have been decisively de- feated by Atlee Pomerene, former Senator and Cleveland attorney. Re turns gave the following vote Atlee Pomerene, 78,311; Florence E. Allen, 58,9 On 'the Republican_ ticket Senator nk B. Willis piled up a plurality 4 to 1 over his v st competitor for the senatorial nomination. C. Q. Hildebrant of Wil- mington, with Kian indorsement, was second, and former Senator Charles Judge Florence Allen in a statement issued today conceded the nomination of former Senator Atlee Pomerene as the Democratic candidate for the United enate. “Wets" Soundly Rebuked Ohio remains normally arid if fafrly complete returns may be taken as a criterion of the voters’ sentiment on prohibition. i The vote gave definite indication that every candidate for nomination on both tickets who had the temerity to declare definifely against prohibi- tion had been soundly vebuked.

Even had she been nominated, however, it is excedingly doubtful that Miss Allen would have had a real chance against Senator Willls in the general election. The race would have been picturesque. however, with the feminist element interjected. Some of Miss Allen's friends during the recent campaign sought to have Republican women vote for Miss Allen in the Demo- cratic primaries. But when atten- tion was called to this pulicly Miss Allen herself issued a statement de- claring that only Democratic women should vote in the Democratic pri- mary. Opposed Prohibition Resolution. Senator Pomerene has made no defi- nite statement regarding his stand on the wet and dry laws. He was opposed to the resolution proposing the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution while he was a member of the Senate. This opposition led to a fight being made agalnst hin by the Anti-Saloon League when he ran for the Senate in 1922. Senator Willis is so bone dry that whatever Pomerene may say he will be regard- ed as a wet when compared with his opponent. Senator Pomerene also incurred the enmity of the large part of organized labor and defled it in his 1922 campaign. The railroad brotherhoods took sides against him. During the primary campalgn this year, Labor, the official organ of the brotherhoods, was sent into Ohio by thousands of copies, supporting Miss Allen und opposing Pomerene. Senator Pomerene made no attack n, though her campaign fhe former Senator. He are himself on the wet and His entrance into the race nomination came late this Ie beén practicing law since his 1etirement from the Senate and more recently has been counsel for the Government, appointed by the President to help handle the Teapot Dome and California_naval oil lease cases against Fall, Doheny and Sin- clair.

A number of these lead it is under ck of their heads that {f Pomerene could win in Ohio, he might prove the Moses needed to lead the Democrats out of the political wilderness in 1928, few surprises in yes- s, and little of na- tional significance except in Ohio.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, August 11.— Returns are coming in slow in the Alabama Democratic primary and 527 precincts out of 1,800 in the State have reported. Hugo L. Black, candidate for the Senate, maintained a lead of several thousand over his nearest opponent, John G. Bankhead, while Mayfield, Kilby and Musgrove trailed in the or- der named. Black was the reputed candidate of the Ku Klux Klan, though a national official of the Klan | said that the order was championing the cause of Musgrove because of his fight against Senator Underwood. A split in the Klan was rumored and the charter was said to be in danger of being revoked because of the dif- ferent political sentiment. Graves Holding Lead. Bibb Graves, Klan candidate for governor, was leading his three op- ponents by a comfortable margin at a late hour. Graves brought forth a national issue in the campaign by charging millionaire newspaper pub- lishers of Alabama with trying to name their man for governor to con- trol the Alabama Democratic delega- tion to the next national convention and support Al Smith.
