In victorious fusion quarters, the assertion was made that ‘Tammany had passed the word to “vote from the right”—to knife May- or John P. O'Brien and “trade him in” as a desperate attempt to save what it could from the fusion land- slide. The Tammany mayoral candidate failed to carry one of the five boroughs and finished third in the three-cor- nered race. The fusion party gained complete trol of the municipal government yy winning 13 of the sixteen votes on the board of estimate, the policy-de- termining body of the city. The final mayoral vote gave La- Guardia 858,551 votes; McKee 604,045; O'Brien 586,100, and Charles Solomon, Socialist, 63,450. ‘Tammany’s sole victory of city-wide importance was turned in by Samuel Levy, who retained the presidency of the borough of Manhattan and gave Tammany its three votes on the board of estimate. ’ | The election was accomplished with the liberal use of blackjacxs, brass knuckles, lead pipe. bricks, knives, and hob-nailed boots. It marked the most violent election period in any New ‘Yorx city mayoral c!ection—nearly * 2,100,000 of the 2,300.000 registered voters went to the’ polls.

TO DISSOLVE ORGANIZATION New York, Nov. 8. — (#) — Mrs Charles H. ‘Women's The most important of the laws to be revived by the passing of national Prohibition is the Webb-Kenyon law enacted in 1913 to protect dry states. It remains in force and will make|— 2 unlawful the shipment of intoxicat- ing liquor into states where local laws forbid it. This law will be enforced by the | department of justice. Collection of taxes on liquor will be in the hands of the internal rev- enue bureau, where it was before prohibition. The Volstead law and its amend- ments will be dead, except for the District of Columbia and other fe eral territories. Down with the Vol- stead Act will go the severe Jones enforcement law and the recently en- acted 3.2 per cent beer law, both of which were made amendments to it. Another law which comes back in-/ to effect with repeal is the Reed amendment to the Webb-Kenyon law, which forbids sending adver- tisements of intoxicating liquors into i dry states. | This would prevent mailing news- papers and magazines with liquor advertisements into states where in toxicating beverages are prohibited.
