THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1930 ping, and One Gives Plural- ity for Light Drinks MODIFICATION IS THE RIDDLE |; Both Sides Claim Middle-of-the- Road Vote Is With Them; 20 Million Forms Sent Out — | \ Forty voters out of ever hundred in | § the United States desire the repeal of the eighteenth amendment, 29 pre- a fer modification of the Volstead law, and 31 stand for strict enforcement, according to The Literary ae ee a final report on its nation-wide poll, | | to be published in tomorrow's issue of | that magazine. i A grand total of 4,806,464 of the | 20,000,000 ballots sent out came back properly marked, as follows: For enforcement, 1,464,098, or 30. 46 | per cent. For modification, 1,399,314, or 29.11 | per cent. | For repeal, 1,943,052, or 40.43 per | cents. | “An unparalleled return, this, from the 20,000,000 blank ballots which be- gan their outflowing pulsations through the mail routes of the entire country in the last days of winter and the first days of spring!” exclaims the editor. ‘The harvest of votes far exceeds the fruits of all The Digest’s most fa- mous and disputed presidential polls. Does not this indicate that the Amer- ican people are more deeply stirred by the existing prohibition situation than they were even by the Hoover- Smith contest, whose astonishing outcome was so categorically forecast by our 1928 poll? “Compare the totals. The Hoover- Smith poll of some 19,000,000 ballots brought @ return of 2,767,263 votes. That was unprecedented, but it fades perceptibly in the presence of our prohibition-poll harvest of over four and three-quarter millions out of twenty millions.” How They Align Five _ states— Arkansas, Kansas, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Ten- nessee—registered a majority vote for strict enforcement, as previously re- ported; and five gave a majority for tepeal—Connecticut, Louisiana, Ne- vada, New Jersey and Rhode Island. The two extremes, by the final fig- ures, continue almost neck and neck going in opposite directions: Kan- sas, 57.67 per cent dry; Nevada 57.61 per cent wet. Thirteen states gave over 40 per cent of their votes for enforcement: Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas. Eighteen states are more than 40 per cent for repeal: Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Wyoming— and the District of Columbia. One Strong for Light Stuff Washington state is the only one to give even a slightly larger vote for light wines and beer than for either enforcement or repeal; but the states that cast approximately 30 per cent of their ballots for such modification include nearly one-half of the whole country—namely: Arizona, Califor- nia, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Ore- go, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, ‘Washington, West Virginia and Wis- consin. A generous portion of The Literary Digest’s editorial comment in this issue is devoted to thanking the press of the country and all those on both sides who have helped to make the poll a success. It says: “To The Digest it is a deep satisfac- tion to have grappled successfully with this immense task. But all our hard labor and lavish expenditure would have been of little use without. the eager cooperation of those who marked and returned their ballots. To these 4,806,464 public-spirited Americans of both sexes we proffer thanks and congratulations. They are he poll! “In all fairness The Digest also con- gratulates and thanks those other thousands who received ho ballots but erp a keen on woking £0 this anpep- ing expression of the national atti- tate that they pesicond us with pleas for ballots—pleas to which we were OLD GRADUATES.
