ALABAA LOSER TOFGHTHEFLN Thompson Congratulates Bankhead, Victorious Rival for Senate. B7 the Associated Press. MONTGOMERY, Ala, August 14— Trailing candidates in Alabama’s bien- nial Democratic primary, in which the total vote appears to have fallen far short of the 200,000 mark hoped for by party leaders, today pledged sup- port in opposition to an independent ticket headed by Senator J. Thomas Heflin. With slightly more than 100 pre- cincts missing, 110,999 votes had been tabulated in the race for the sena- torial nomination, in which John H. Bankhead was conceded victory over Frederick 1. Thompson, Mobile pub- lisher. It was estimated that the com- plete count would swell the aggregate vote by 15 per cent. Approximates Smith Vote. The_indicated total would approxi- mate the vote of 127,797 given Alfred E. Smith, Democratic presidential nom- inee in 1928, when the State came within 7,000 votes of joining the Re- publican 'column. In the Democratic primary of 1926 the senatorial race attracted 216,660 votes. It was recalled that Senator Heflin had appealed to his supporters either to remain out of the primary or vote only for county offices. - Thompson. who trailed Bankhead by nearly 35,000 votes, offered his services “in unified effort to insure that the Democratic party be preserved as the Tuling and governing party authority in Alabama.” The statement was made in a message congratulating Bankhead. Leads for Governorship. On the tabulation of 153,670 votes, B. M. Miller, former associate justice of the Supreme Court, was leading W. C. Davis, lieutenant governor, by approximately 5,000 for the guberna- torial nomination. Davis' headquar- ters refused to concede defeat, but in a statement said, “In any event we shall be solidly behind the Democratic nominee in the general election.” Heflin and Hugh A. Locke, who were barred from running in the primary under an Executive Committee ruling excluding as candidates those who op- posed the 1928 Democratic presidential nominee, will be independent candi- dates for Senator and Governor, re- ctively. %ndfl' the name of “Jeffersonian Democrats” Heflin and Locke, with Dempsey Powell, independent candi- date for lieutenant governor, were in- dorsed at a mass meeting in Birming- ham July 4. A State convention has been calied here September 1 formally to nominate the three. DUTCH MUCH ANNOYED BY BATHING COSTUMES Committee Formed to Combat “Bad Habits” Objected to at German Rivers and Lakes. COLOGNE (N.AN.A).—The cardinal who is head of Germany's Western Church at Cologne has addressed 8 pastoral letter to the various dioceses and a committee has been formed “to fight the bad habits of public bathing. This because tourists from Holland, who who make the famous Rhine trip their Summer holiday, have complained of the mixed bathing with very inade- quate costume, which is now one of the features of Germany's rivers, lakes and watering places throughout the country. ‘The Dutch @o not like the spectacle of the much unclothed German family. The informal - sun-bathing party is odious to them. This must be on ac- count of its brazen calm. The German open-air . movement is stamped with such seriousness and is so devoid of anything in the nature of y. There is no thoughtless ligl . no daring frolic about it. It is just stolild and determined un and it earns everywhere the stolid and determined dislike of the Dut¢h. And the Dutch pocketbook is fat and very welcome on the Rhine; hence the ‘committee. Elsewhere in Germany no Dutchman need feel alarm, though. A Communist Deputy who ventured to address the Reichstag wearing a tennis shirt the other day was the ceuse of a decree that German M. P.'s'must wear coats! (Copyright, 1830, by North American News- r Alliance.)

The | 2,400 men made available through de- commissioning _the three battleships will be released for other assignmen over a period of three months, and re cruiting activities reduced to admit 800 | men per month for the period.

Wyoming, which will be placed in re- serve status. A body of 2.389 sailors, therefore, will b> released about Octo- ber 1, when the ships are decommis- stoned. In the early part of 1931 there will be five reasons why thcse 2.400 men will not be idle. The battleships Ari- zona and Pennsylvania will have been modernized, and three 10,000-ton cruisers, the Louisville, the Chicago and the Augusta, will be completed. The Arizona and Pennsylvania carry omplements of 1,077 men each, and ach now has 300 men aboard. The crews of the Utah and Wyoming will man the two battleships being reno- vated, plus 132 men from the Florida. Each of the three new cruisers requires 525 men, or a total of 1575. The 835 men remaining will be assigned to crew gradually diminishing during the | these, with the balance of the crews scrapping ch will rocess. Three hundred men |provided by recruiting and transfers | left aboard the Utah and 'from other ships.
