The question was whether the House would consider a resolution to resubmit the Eigh- teenth Amendment to the States. In favor of this {proposal the Wets polled 187 votes, divided as fol- lows: Rep.

It has long been evi- dent that Prohibition cuts across both party lines, but the evenness of the division, as revealed by this tabulation, exceeds most calculations. On the Republican side the Wets lacked only 8 votes yes- terday of a majority control of their party; on the Democratic side they lacked 13. Thers are also unexpected results when the figures are considered from the point of view of different setions. The South, of course, is politically Dry. But it was shown by yesterday's vote to bef even more politically Dry than many observers would have thought. Of the 177 Southern Representatives, [ mission. On the other hand, the Middle West and The poll showed 32 Democratic members from those sections voting for the resolution, compared with 24 opposed, and 50 Republicans in favor, ot 71 opposed.

Johnson and Arthur went to the Presidency from the Vice-Presidential chair. Grant, | Arthur, Cleveland, Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Coolidge | and Hoover never served in Congress at all. Not since th: nomination of Senator Stephen A. Douglas in 1860—nearly three quarters of a century | ago—have the Democrats got a Presidential nominee out of Congress. McCllellan nominated in 1864 and Hancock in 1880 were soldiers. Seymour named in 1868, Tilden in 1876, Cleveland in 1884, 1888 and Smith in 1928 had been Governors. Greeley in 1872 and Bryan in 1896, 1900 and 1908 were journalists. Parker in 1904 was Chief Judge of the New York State Court of Appeals and Davis in 1924 was a practicing lawyer who had made an enviable record as a diplomat. It is not likely that either party will this year record being mace in Congress, Republican Senate and Democratic House, make it less likely every day. CUTTING EXPENSES TO THE QUICK. The United States Senate has decided that there must be a cut of ten per cent. in the operating expenses of the Government. By a two to one vote it sent back to the appropriations committee the bill providing funds for the Departments of State, duce them ten per cent. Senator Jones declared that he considers that a mandate to cut all supply bills at least that much. That is the only sure way to reduce expenses and troubles new Those Alaskans who may be elected 1933 Legislature should not go to: Juneau with the idea that the road to fame lies in the number of bills which can be put through during the sse- sion. days as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States, did not go to Washington with a record as the originator 1892, Wilson in 1912 and 1916, Cox in 1920 and | of many bills during the time he served as a member of the Texas Legislature. fact he introduced only two measures and joined as co-author in a third.
