THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON. D. C. THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1930 PROHIBITION SSUE IN VIRGINIA RACE Five Candidates in Field for Seat in Congress Vacated by R. Walton Moore. In the very door yard of the Na- #ional Capital, in the most historic dis- trict where Washington lived, Where there has not been a fight for mem- bership in Congress within the memory of the oldest inhabitants, an exceed- ingly warm contest is now being waged on_the “wet” and “dry” issue Representative R. Walton Moore of Pairfax, Va, who has often been re- ferred to as the “spokesman for the Natonal Capital.” has voluntarily re- | tired, and there are five candidates in | the fleld for the seat he is about to vacate in the House. They are: Frank | Ball of Arlington, & State Senator; | Howard W. Smith of Alexandria, who recently resigned from the Circuit Court bench to make the run for Con- gress: Thomas R. Keith of Fairfax, one of the most prominent attornevs in Northern Virginia; Crandall Mackey, former commonwealth attorney. anc E. | H, De Jarnette of Orange County. The | race is most active between the three | first named. Ball and Smith are “dry"—the for-| mer non-compromisingly so and the Iatter quite successful in not allowing himself to be smoked out by hecklers with “wet” tendencies. On the other hand, Keith has outspokenly declared for repeal of the eighteenth amend- ment, for modification and adherence | to State rights. He has expressed the | opinion that a great mistake was made | in placing prohibition in the Consti-| — tution with consequent abridgement | of local self-government. He is mak- | ing his campaign on the sentiment that before the eighteenth amendment was adopted Virginia handied the liquor Bh i vy eob a1 f‘;,'f;'}fcl',’,':,'f eran of the Danville department, was hibited shipment into contiguous terri- | SeVerely reprimanded today by the Po- tory, and points out that in those days | lice Commission, as & result of an ad- | Virginia was not the nesting place of | Mitted assault on George Neal, which moonshine stills the haunt of boot. | occurred in the city jail.
