Physicians YOL'NC ATTORNEY ARRESTED Florence (Lawyer Charged WHJi Part In Bank Hold-up. Florence, Nov. 15.?A. J. Fowler, Jr., Florence lawyer, and bin father, who holds a responsible position with the Atlantic Coast Line railroad, were arrested here today following their implication in the holdup last March of the Bank of Coward near here in a confession said by officer# to have been made by Thad Smith, now serylwr a 16 to 20 year sentence in.the fetate penitentiary for manslaughter. Smith's reported confession is said to set forth that he and Carl Fowler, a brother of the lawyer, robbed the bank of $5,000 and that he turned his part of loot over to A. J. Fowler and his father. Carl Fowler is under indictment for alleged participation in the holdup. The attorney arrested is associated at the bar with Philip H.?Arrowsmith, state senator from Florence county. He is about 26 years old', and was graduated from the University of South Carolina. The senior Fowler is a supervisor of section foremen for the railroad. Smith, who was'convicted of the killing of Roy McKay at a country dance, is said to have made his confession to L. C. Johnson, , one of Governor Richards' detectives. His arrest, along with that of Carl Fowler, was caused by W. A. Newman, of a private detective agency. The bank robbery took place some time after the homicide which involved Smith. In his reported confession,' the latter is quoted qs having eaid he hid his share of /the loot at Great Falls, where he kept it, until told by Attorney Fowler to bring it back to Florence. His reported statement says he turned it over to the lawyer, and has not. seen any of it since. Officers say that only about $500. of the bank's money was recovered. Smith's confession, as made public, relates that he and Fowler visited the bank a week before they actually committed the robbery with the intention of holding it up; but changed their minds when they saw two women inside. On the day of the holdup, he said, they took the' license tag from the rear of their car, put up the | curtains, and left the motor running when they entered the bank. ?<Fowler, he continued, drew a pistol on the cashier, and ordered him to "stick 'em up," after which they got $5,000 in currency from the vault, making their getaway. The ' two hid- the money in the woods for several days before dividing it, according to [ Smith's confession. Smith asserted he got $1,900, which he took to Great Falls in an old satchel, where he kept | I in until on the advice of A. J. Fowler he turned it over to the lawyer. Ruth ?Elder, trans-Atlantic flyer, who returned to New York last week, from Paris, is reported to have given her husband to understand that she is through washing dishes and is going into the movie game to cash in on the publicity she has gained as the result of. her attempt to fly across the Atlantic.

AN ORDINANCE . 1 ? ?? Declaring the result of an election I ' on the question of a Bond Issue of the City of Camden, South Caro* I Una, fer the purpose of paving certain streets of the City of Camden, I South Carolina. I I State of South .Carolina, ? I County of Kershaw, j City Council of Camden. Be It ordained by the City Councif of Camden, South Carolina!? and by I the authority of same, that the elect I day of Qctobif71927, on the question I of issuing coupon bonds o? the City I of Camden, South CaroMna, to the amount of Thirty-Fire Thousand [any legal tender of the United States forty 140) year# afUr date, with privilege of redemption twenty (20) years after date, for the purpose of paving certain streets of the City of Camden, South Carolina, was duly held with the result that said bond issue whs carried. The majority of electors si said election voting for the said issue of bonds, .there being Twenty-four votes for said bond issue and three votes against said bond issue. j Ratified in Council assembled this WARNING ON ELECTION Former Senator MeLattrin Say# State Vota CouM Be Counted Out York, b. C., Nov. 15,-^Pointinir out how the 1928 election in South Carolina may be declared void, former United State* Senator John L. McLaurin in a two column article in The Yorkville Enquirer today sounds a warning to the people of South Caro-1 Una with Home overtones the national Democratic party may hear, on the piesent condition of the election lawn i of the Palmetto State. He says his object is only the good of the state and the Democratic party for "my political ambition* are gone." Recounting the evolution of the South Carolina statute which five* the Democratic Btate convention power to regulate who may vote at the primary which, however, is made a state election, he warns that this delegation of legislative power will be held unconstitutional at its first test, and moreover is very dangerous just now, and says: "It was bad judgment to pass any law which can be construed as making the rules of the party a part of the election machinery of the state. We all know as a matter of fact that the primary iH the real election. Formerly w? nullified the general election without the aid of statute law, and we should have continued to do so. The August election is as much under the law as the Noyembe^ election, and one who cannot vote in the August election is dented all voice in the government of S<*ith Carolina." He then asks , whether any citizan can he prevented from voting at the August primary; what would the United States supreme court say, if colored citizens made proper application to vote at the primary and were refused; is not the state treading on very dangerous ground in the light of her olden, but continuing necessities ? Senator McLaurin then advises: "The legislature at an early date after its meeting should repeal every law that entangles the Democratic primary with the general election laws of the state. It should be left entirely as it was until a few years ago as to the rules and regulations adopted by the Democratic convention. I also think that the rules should be amended, and no oath required to support any man or platform in national politics. If A1 Smith is nominated, the Protestants in South Carolina as a whole will not support him, just as if McAdoo were nominated, the Catholics would not vote for him, and it would be just as wrong to cram McAdoo down their throats as it is to cram Smith down our throats. The politicians have their plans well laid, but when they slap the Methodists and Baptists in the face?a flimsy political machinery will think and feel that a cyclone hit it. I think that both McAdoo and Smith should be set aside. The nomination of either will break the solid South as nothing else will. The nomination of Smith will subordinate the will and traditions of our people to the frantic desire of a few selfish politicians to win regardless of cost." Some 250 or more An>erican Legionaires, visiting Rome, were given a Royal welcome in that city on Wednesday. The World war veterans were led by Howard P. Savage, former head of the legion. The party was received by the pope.

MaSbsr^SsW County, , ' GEORGIA TOUCHED SEAS State Orl|iM)l> Extended From. At* Untie to Pacific George 11, of England, on June 9, 1732, granted to Jamea Ogelthorpe and his associates a large portion of country lying between the Savannah and Aitamaha Rivers, and extending due west from their headquarters by two parallel lines to the South Seas, which meant to the Pacific Ocean. It was customary in that day for monarchs to claim all the land their seamen discovered, and as much more as was partly occupied by nations too weak to defend their title, hence this grant extended much further westward than the territory the king had any right to or dominion over. The lines were never run, however, beyond the Mississippi River, says the Detroit News. At the time the King of Spain claimed all land south of the Altamaha, including the territory now known as Florida, and all of Alabama and Mississippi except a narrow atrip along the Gulf. Thirty years later a J treaty with Spain gave this territory i to England, and George 111, then ! granted to his trustees for the Georgia colony all that Spain had ceded, except that part known as East and West Florida; hence the Georgia do Sized Dp the Oother On* While Firestone, Edison, Ford and Burroughs were touring, * light and a tire on the car wont bad.
