SAN ANTONIO. Texas, Aug. IT.
(AP). The way was paved for
a test of Smith and anti-Smith
sentiment in Texas when the dem
ocratic state executlre committee
here today certified the name of
Thomas B. Love of Dallas as a
candidate for lieutenant governor
in the runoff primary August 25.
Love, former ' democratic na
tional committeeman for Texas,
has announced he will vote for
Herbert Hoover for president. In
the runoff primary he will be op
posed by Lieutenant Governor
Barry Miller, who has pledged
support to Governor Alfred E.
Smith, the democratic presiden
tial nominee.
Love's name was certified by
the comm lttee after Miller
urged such action. s

u- Roan i ruling decided a
suit brought by the company to
recover excess profits and income
taxes levied by the government for
the years, mentioned in the ap
proximate amount of 156.000.
Company Protests
On protest of the company this
amount finally was reduced to
$18,000 which the company paid
under protest in 1922.
Under the provisions of the
federal statutes suit was brought
against the collector of Internal
revenue " for the return of this
amount.
William H. Trindle. of Salera,
as attorney for the Gile company,
repeatedly endeavored to get
action in the matter, making at
least two trips to Washington, D
C, in the interests of his clients.

the government is directed to re
turn to the Gile company the $18,
