Washington clergymen voted over- whelmingly for repeal of the prohibition law, it will be revealed in the returns of the Literary Digest’s special classi- | g: 4 fied polls, as published in tomorrow’s mg | issue of the magazine. The religious leaders of. the District voted: For enforcement, 42; for modi- fication, 38, and for repeal, 234, Other District totals follow: Bankers —For _enforcement, 28; for modifica- tion, 25; for repeal, 78. Educators— For enforcement, 236; for modification, 65; for repeal, 82. Lawyers—For en- forcement, 140; for modification, 114; for repeal, 419. Physicians—For en- forcement, 115; for modification, 110; for repeal, 282. Bankers Want Prosperity. “Bankers,” the Literary Digest states editorially, “are interested in keeping America pros"gerous, Their expert fin- gers are on the business pulse of every city, town and village, every line of trade and industry. “When they vote, they vote for good times and against hard times, and, curi- ously enough, we find practically the same number voting for enforcement and for repeal, 35210 for the one and 34,518 for the other, with 15,096 taking the middle ground for modification. “Striking ~ geographical trends are shown, with bankers in manufacturing States like New York and New Jersey favoring repeal, and bankers in farming States like Kansas and Nebraska favor- ing enforcement. “A total of 218,711 ballots were mailed to bankers. “The clergy, on the other hand, are concerned over our spiritual welfare. All faiths and all creeds are represented in our Eoll, and all are deeply anxious over this perplexing problem. “Out of 116,235 clergymen to whom ballots were sent, we find 26,863 voting for enforcement, 3,864 for modification and 15912 for repeal. Thus a clear majority are for enforcement. Complex Situation. “When we scan the figures in the table, State by State, however, we find the bone-drys in the minority in some places, and actual majorities for repeal in the District of Columbia, Louisiana, Nevada, New York and Wisconsin. This at least shows the complexity of the great wet and dry enigma. “Then we have the champion dry voters, the educators. Of this class 490,895 were supplied with ballots. We have chosen the well known efficient and long-suffering _schoolmistress to represent the teachérs, but this group also includes thousands of men, school principals, college professors and presi- dents and large numbers of man teach- ers in all the grades. “The teachers are faced every day with the vital problem of our young people, which flames out in the news columns all too often, and here we have their votes to gieve us their judg- ment on what is to be done about it. “The educators cast 95422 ballots for enforcement, 22,705 for modifica- tion and 38,956 for repeal. Connecticut and New York stand out as the only two States where the teachers cast mori votes for repeal than for enforce- men “The lawyers should surely have a chance to voice their views here, as it is a question of lawmaking, law- breaking and law-enforcement. Show Clear Majority. “Judges, too, are included in this mu,'l&lhmmv":’hnwnchuvh speal pec lll%. “The lawyers evidently differ with the clergy and the teachers, they show a clear majority for 3 They vote 18,101 for enforcement, 9,743 for modification and 34,886 for repeal, the only one of the six groups to show @ clear majority for repeal. “The States where their enforcement for McDades Prescription Full Pint Competitive Value $2.00 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
