| PROHIBTION PLANK OF ILLINOIS ¢. 0. P. CALLED COMPROMISE Mrs. Ruth McCormick, Senatori- al Candidate, Promises to ‘Bow’ to Will of People’ Springfield, Il, Aug. 23.—(#)—The prohibition issue in the Illinois sena- torial campaign was clearly defined today with Ruth Hanna McCormick, the Republican nominee, pledged to’ abide by the voters’ decision in a ref- erendum and James Hamilton Lewis, the Democratic candidate, standing on an out and out “wet” platform. Mrs. McCormick, who had always ‘been considered a dry, announced at the Republican state convention here yesterday that she stands ready to obey the mandate of the voters in the triple referendum on prohibition to be decided Nov. 4, the same day as the senatorial election. Her speech followed the announce- ment of the state G. O. P. platform ecntaining a prohibition plank almost identical with Mrs. McCormick's stand. The plank, which pledged Re- publican representatives in congress to carry out the will of their districts, was considered a compromise beween the wet and dry factions in the party. ‘The Democrats, meeting Wednes- day, followed the lead of their stand- ard bearer, former Senator Lewis, in favoring repeal of all prohibition leg- islation. In the first statement she has made on prohibition since announcing her candidacy for the senate, Mrs. McCormick reaffirmed that she was personally a dry. She said, however, that she was a member of the Repub- lican party which “pledges itself to be responsive to the will of the peo- ple” and she outlined specifically what course she would take if the va- rious referendums are carried. If the voters favor repeal of the 18th amendment she said she would vote to submit the question to the states. If the people decide for modi- fication of the Volstead act she said her course would be “in sympathy with the principle approved, but the definite course to be pursued would be dependent, of course, upon the na- ture of the modification demanded.” Concerning the third referendum relating to repeal of thé Illinois search and seizure act, she said it was a “state law which I shall not now discuss.” Mrs. McCormick added that “until the constitutional amendment is re- pealed or until the Volstead act is re- pealed or amended, I stand squarely for enforcement of both measures.” SAY NORTHWEST IS NOT HARDEST HIT Bank Review Claims Other Sec- tions Suffer More From Heat and Drought Summarizing crop and_ business conditions in 10 states, Northwest Bancorporation’s August Review says drought and torrid heat which settled upon the United States in June and July did not center in the northwest, although it affected some areas. Tak- ing Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Ne- braska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho arid Wash- ington, the review finds~production of wheat in these 10 states, according to August 1 estimates, slightly larger than in 1929; rye production greater, oats materially larger, and barley practically the same as in 1929 and a third better than the five-year aver- age. Even including the unfavorakle August 1 estimate of corn the out- turn of all grains in these 10 st&tes is not materially below that of 1929, Noting the corn losses and the un- favorable livestock situation, the re- view says there are some other sec- tions of very sizable scope in this ter- -ritory where conditions are good—and good not only compared with the rest of the country, but as compared with other seasons. There is a large region ‘rea which can be classed as the best so far as crops are concerned, in the United States. “Chief concern this year is the price ft which our products are being sold, or what they may bring when offered for sale later on,” says the review. “Wheat has scored some advances from its most depressed point, but still remains not far above th lowest quo- tations. Feed grains have advanced, fortunately enough for those who sell, ‘but further complicating matters for feeders of cattle and sheep, market prices for livestock still allowing but narrow profit margins and sometimes none at all. Butter has advanced, and as this is the most important dairying district in the United States the improvement is noteworthy. “This district as represented by 32 ‘of its leading citics has experienced ‘but a stnall change from 1929 in vol- ume of check payments through banks which in 30 weeks’ time amounted to $10,053,415,000 in 1930 as compared swith $10,589,975,000 last year, a differ- ence of 5 per cent. In 140 of the Jargest centers in the United States the corresponding ‘decline was 11 per cent, and including New York City, 22 per cent.” Rains Are Aid to Highway Workers Moderate to heavy rains in the bouthern half and northwestern por- tion of the state during the first part of this week have caused many un- surfaced roads-to be heavy and slip- ery, according to the weekly road report issued today by the North Da- ‘kota department of state highways. Gravel surfaced roads are gener- ally good, the precipitation aiding maintainence operations in removing rorrugations. With continued fair weather, the report said, all roads shoud be in good condition over the week-end. Light Scattered rains in the northeastern part of the state have caused no in- tonvenience to traffic.

No promise, was made, but Presi- dent Hoover said prediction of a deficit that would prevent continu- ing the reduction was unwarranted and Secretary Mellon added that, it was a “possibility” the lower schedules would be continued. As the reduction authorized by congress for this year was made continuing, new legislation will have to be passed or the previous higher rates will return. i The two statements late yesterday followed earlier pessimistic forecasts |by treasury experts. Publication of these gloomy reports brought a round | of conferences and the optimistic an- |nouncements followed. President Hoover said several items not taken into account in calculating | deficit could be counted upon to | swell treasury receipts. Among these, jhe cited increased customs receipts. temporarily reduced “because of ad- vance imports to anticipate the new tariff law—increased construction at home and substantial payments on the debts of foreign nations. Not the least important in his list was the downward revision of government ex- penditures. Partial reports on the drive for new economies in government depart- ments, the president said, indicated ‘a reduction of about $75,000,000. Sev- eral departments have yet to turn in estimates. “A very real hope,” of continuing the tax reduction was voiced by Mr. ‘Mellon, who pointed out also that the last fiscal year ended with a $186,- 000,000 surplus. The one per cent cut reduced in- come taxes by about $160,000,000, in amounts ranging from $3.75 on $4,000 incomes to nearly $100 on larger per- sonal earnings.
