VOTERS DEMAND HASTINGS APOLOGY Two Alabamans Named John W. Moore Ask Retraction of Election Fraud Charge. By the Associated Press. BIRMINGHAM, Ala, February 12.— Benator Hastings (Republican, Dela- | ware, chairman of the Senate Privi- leges and Elections Committee, yes- terday was asked to retract a state- ment on the Bankhead-Heflin sena- torial contest, that “an absentee ballot was cast for a dead man in Shelby County, or John W. Moore, an election | officer, voted in two counties” in the 1930 election. A retraction was demanded in tele- grams to Hastings from two men by the name of John W. Moore, who live within two miles of each other in Jefferson County. One is a qualified voter in Jefferson and the other main- tains his voting privileges in Shelby. The charge was made at the Senate Elections Subcommittee’s hearings here several weeks ago and reported Wednesday by Senator Hastings lhal‘ the name of John W. Moore, supposed to have been dead five years, was on an absentee ballot cast in Sheiby County. | ‘The man whose absentee ballot was cast appeared later, testified his ballot was legal and that he was “very much alive.” The telegram of the man who main- tains his voting privileges in Jefferson County said: “I scrved as election officer in beat 1, box 1, and have teen 8 qualified voter there all my life. I have never voted in Shelby County. The John W. Moore mentioned as com- ing there from Shelby and voting is another man. Your report has done me serious injustice and I demand im- mediate retraction, with the same pub- licity as given your charge.” ‘The telegram from the other Moore, who lives in Jefferson and votes in Bhelby, read: “Newspapers say you claim in your report that I voted in Shelby in 1930, and in the same election served as manager and voted in beat 1, box 1, Jefferson County. This is not justified | and untrue and I request that you| give a statement, correcting this in- Justice to me.” WIFE SAYS M'NAMEE MET ANOTHER WOMAN “Pajama” Scene Described in Di- vorce Hearing Involving Radio Announcer.

Students Are Seared With Chemicals in Club’s Initiation I'wo Boys’ Faces May Bear Permanent Scars From Solution Used. By the Associated Press. MACON, Ga., February 12.—Two Macon high school boys are suffering from burns on their faces and bodies, which they told their parents were caused by a chemical solution painted on them Tuesday night during a club | initiation. Physicians said the burns might leave permanent scars. The boys, Wallace Miller, jr, and Bowden Culpepper, said they were taken into the woods, stripped and| painted with the chemical, which was | intended to turn them black. Members of the club said théy had used the so- lution in previous initiations, and that there had been no effect other than temporary blackening of the skin of the initiates. Maj. Paul R. Anderson, principal of the school the two boys attend, said the club was not recognized by the school and was not under faculty juris- diction. A committee from the Macon Board of Education, however, planned to visit the echool today to determine if further investigation shguld be made.

Police said the three boys, Sylvester | L. Brown, Robert T. Brown and Her- bert Jones, were picked out of a line-up of 10 men at headquarters by the two | victims.

LOS .mom.m February 12.—Rec- ognizing “exceptional _circumstances” in the case of Arthur Shirley, Austra- lan film actor, Federal immigration officials in Washington have advised local authorities he would not be de- ported provided he leaves this country voluntarily before March 15. The plight of Shirley, who has been held in jail since last December 23, | aroused interest in the Hollywood film colony because he once had played the Iosdlng role of a young American in “The Fall of a Nation.” That was a preparedness picture re- | leased shortly before the United States TEN MARKE TS entered the World War. Several “stills” of him were used in enlistment posters. ‘The actor entered the United States a second time in November, 1930, on a visitor'’s vise, which permits a six- month stay. He said he had applied for permission to remain another six months, but Federal officials insist the application was never received. . — Gold Found Under City. In the heart of Johannesburg, South Africa, a reef rich with gold has been found, but cannot be worked because the laws prohibit mining under cities and towns. Workmen excavating for a new post office in Von Brandis Square struck the reef 6 feet below the sur- face. Efforts are being made to trace the reef beyond the city limits so that mining may begin.
