The significance liss in the fact that when the wets point to events in places like New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts, and depict them as handwriting on the political wall, the drys retort by claiming that their stronghold is, and always has been, beyond the Alleghanies and be- | low Mason and Dixon's line. In other words, the drys contend that in a Nation-wide referendum on the | eighteenth amendment they could view the loss of the East and the more | populous regions of the Middle West without alarm.

Their American origin traces back farther than many of those in the forefront of social life in some of our Eastern cities. “For this reason these families, long established, do not feel any need of ‘keeping up with the Joneses.” They do not have to resort to conventional or artificial resources to give interest to the social affairs they sponsor.

Mrs, Strawbridge has found, she thinks, that the “Soviet menace” is one of the factors “having a very profound influence upon the altering standards of American social life.” Although Communist propaganda is not so potent as to threaten seriously the undermining | of American institutions, Mrs. Straw- bridge discovers that large and influ- ential groups are coming more and more o realize the necessity of “standing by the Constitution.” She says: “Prohibition is a part of the Consti- tution. The Soviet drive in the United States is undoubtedly forcing growing numbers of our people to realize that the whole future of the type of civiliza- tion develo] be maintal by positive support of law and order. To be merely negative is of no value. Our forefathers paid a tremendous price for the liberty we possess. “The responsible leaders of social life in American cities are not like the French courtiers who could calmly sa; ‘after us, the deluge,’ nor do they wis to be in a position where they will remorsefully cry ‘had we only known. They are becoming conscieus that they must not lose hope, courage, nerve and ambition; that they must not be de- pressed by the widely-sown publicity of the liquor grolip. Rather are they ccw ing to the settled conviction that the Constitution which serves and protects 122,000,000 Americans must not be wrecked by a few greedy, irresponsible or_careless folk.” Mrs. Strawbridge was asked what ap- pears to be the governing motive of women ready to go dry at their own tables. “Their unwillingness to sell the morals of their children and of youth generally the be) a traffic now outlawed,” she replied, “nor will the) pander to the appetites of a very small minerity, in order to exchange quantity for quality at their own social functions.

It is interesting to note tthat two of them are owned by the United States of America, and that one of these was raided twice in three months. This list is made up by the Police De- partment for the use of the district torney's office in order to start lock proceedings, so it is reasonable to resume that the district attorney should immediately proceed to lock certain properties of the United States.” Commenting on these statistics, the Crusaders’ Washington headquarters says: “It 15 now a matter of common knowledge that prohibition laws have ‘been passed in Congress with the active help of ‘wet-drinking, dry-voting Con- gressmen.’ But the country at large does not realize that efforts to enforce the ‘?mhlbulon laws are as futile in the Nation's Capital as they have proved in other sections of the United States. “Our tion, the Crusaders, is largely made up of men who were t00 young to vote when the eighteenth prohibition was hurriedly made & law, We know that prohibition is a faflure, that it has bred crime and disrespect for law.

It has pointed out that by sup- porting dry candidates for Congress it was doing something effective, whereas the referendum was really ineffective whichever way it might go. In the election of dry Representatives-at-large and dry Senators the league has been singularly effective up to this time. That must be admitted. On the other hand, the fights over the election of members of the House and the Senate had in them many | issues beyond prohibition. The drys had the advantage, for example, back+ ing Republican candidates for these offices in a strongly Republican State, The issue so far as wet and dry is con- cerned, therefore, was not strictly drawn in these elections. League Backs Mrs. O'Neill. ‘When Mrs. McCormick at the Repub- lican State Convention August 23, last, announced that she would be guided in her votes in the Senate on the liquor question by the results of the referen- dum, the Anti-Saloon League went straight up in the air. The Republican | State Convention took the same stand as that of Mrs. McCormick in its plat- form. In other words, the Republican orgenization and its senatorial candi- date threatened to get out of hand on the wet and dry issue. The league right there made up its mind that if it did | not take drastic action in the case of Mrs. McCormck the same situation would keep right on cropping up in Illinols and, indeed, in other States, with the threat always hanging over the that if & State went wet in a referendum, the Senators and Congress- men would vote wet in Washington. pul independent d: ublican in the fleld and finall; Mm‘ Lottie Holman O'Neill, who was the first woman ever elected to the State Legislature.

It is appealing to the church people and tht‘ ll!.h- clergymen to support Mrs. e ‘The Anti-Saloon League leaders say that Mrs. McCormick had nothing to fear after she had been nominated by | the Republicans for the Senate last | April. All she had to do, they say, was to let the prohibition question alone | and she would have been elected with- | out question. But in order to curry favor with the wet voters and to ride along with the wet Republican City Hall organization in Chicago, they charge, Mrs. McCormick gave in and agreed to abide by the referendum. They go further and charge that her | agreement to abide by the referendum, which was sponsored by the City Hall | crowd, is part payment for the support which the City Hall crowd gave her in her contest for the senatorial nomina- tion against Senator Charles S. Deneen. Mrs. McCormick in No Danger. George B. Safford, superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of Illinois, in ! a statement issued to the press said in part: “Mrs. McCormick was in no danger after her large victory in the primaries. She did not make the concession’to the wets because she was in danger. In 1926, in a situation almost exactly similar, Yates and Rathbone, candi- dates for congressmen at large, ignored a similar referendum, publicly declared their edherence to the dry cause and | { openly defied the wets. The two Demo- cratic candidates were equally frank | in taking their position on the wet side, | and though the wets won by a large | majority in the referendum the two dry Republican candidates won by 350,000 majority in the same election. Mrs. McCormick was in an equally safe position and could have counted on a majority of upwards of 300,000. Neither e nor the Republican party was in ds r of defeat.”, Discussing the advisability of having the drys take part in the coming ref- erendum, Mr. Safford said: the referendum. The wets are in con- trol of the election machinery of both parties in Cook County. They have not proposed this referendum with an idea of letting the drys win. They expect to produce enough wet votes in Cook County by fair means and foul to overcome any dry votes that may be_ produced by the State.” question submitted to the voters in the referendum of 1922 was as fol- : “Shall the existing State and Federal prohibition laws be modified 50 as to permit the manufacture, sale and transportation of beer (containing less than 4 per cent by velume of alco- hol) and light wines for home con- sumption.” The vote in this referendum | stood as follows: Downstate, 513,239 wet; Cook County, 552,003 wet; total wet, 1,065,242. Downstate, 374,002 dry; Cook County, 138,109 dry; total dry, 512,111. At the same election, Yates, Republi- can and dry, candidate for Represen- tative-at-Large, received 043,684 votes to 662,050 for Murphy, his Democratic opponent who was wet. The dry| league points to this election to show the strength of the drys. Question Different in 1926. In 1926 the question submitted to the voters in the referendum of that| year was somewhat different. It fol- | lows: “Shall the Congress of the United States modify the Federal Act to enforce the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution so that same shall not prohibit the manufacture, sale, transporation, importation or exporta- tion of beverages which are not in fact intoxicating as determined in accor-| dance with the laws of the respective States.” The drys made a better showing in this latter referendum than they did in_1922. The vote stood: i Downstate, 353,468 wet; Cook County, 487,163 wet; total wet, 840,631. | Downstate, 354,118 dry; Cook County, 202,474 dry; total dry, 556,111. Senator Lewis doesn't like the refer- endum on the liquor question. He in sists that he and his party's platform which declared for rej of the eighteenth amendment and modification of the Volstead act in the interim, pre- sent a sufficient referendum to the vot- ers. Indeed, the Democrats declined to take steps to bring forward a referp endum petition of their own this y(‘('.‘ fearing that the wet Re'ruhllcnna mij{nt vote wet in the referendum and having | blown off steam in that manner, cast| their ballots for the Republican nomi- nees. They would have been well satis- fied if the city hall crowd had not spon- sored a petition for such a referendum. However, it has turned out to be a stumbling block for Mrs. McCormick. It has resulted in a great amount of hostility toward her on the part of the bone drys and the interjection of the candidacy of Mrs. O'Neil, who is bound Cormick than from Senator Lewls, if the political dopesters are right. Seeks to Placate Dry Women. Mrs. McCormick apparently is seeking to placate the dry women and dry Re- publican men by reiterating her asser- tion that she is personally .dry, that she favors hibition and that there is no possibility of the eighteenth amend- lr:::nt'l being_repealed.

OPTIMISM RULES POLITIGAL CAMPS Both Parties Confident of Election Results as Final Fight Nears. By the Associated Press. t Tightening up their machines for the | drive of the con | \ final three weeks' gressional campaign, national leaders of both parties maintained their opti- mistic hopes yesterday over the out- come on November 4. Republican campaign managers were called into special conference here by Robert H. Lucas, executive director of the national committee, but he insisted the parley was routine and should not be considered as a sign of alarm in the Republican ranks. 1 some of tne Republican ‘ns spoke privately of probable losses in the election, Lucas asserted things were looking “splendid” and predicted the administration would keep a “workable majority” in the House and there would little change in the political makeup of the Senate.

Raskob, chairman of the Democratic National Committee; James Cox of Ohio, Demo- cratic presidential nominee in 1920, and Jouett Shouse will be the radio speakers over Nationwide hook-ups for the Democrats. Becretary Davis of the Labor Depart- ment, the Republican senatorial nominee in Pennsylvania; Secretary Hurley, Emory Buckner, former New York dis- trict attorney, and James Francis Burke, counsel of the Republican National Committee, will do the radio work for the Republicans. Big Guns on Stump. Meanwhile both parties intend also to use their “big guns” in the fleld. Vice President Curtis, Senator Watson of Indiana and Chairman Fess of the Republican National Committee are on speaking tours now. James A. Reed, veteran Musaurld Ee:uwutg :nh paigner, is expected by party 80 into action along with Senator Robin- son of Arkansas, the Democratic leader in the Senate. Republicans are expressing concern that a situation of eight years ago, in which the Wisconsin Republican “in- surgents” held ennlro} of the House, the balance of power to the party “Insurgents.” Senator Tydings says the Democrats will win the House, but Shouse contents himself with the definite assertion that the Democrats will make tremendous gains in November. —————————————— the State on liquor. To this Mrs. Mc- Cormick repiles that when she was nominated there was no question of a referendum and that the question of prohibition was not brought up in the primary campaign between herself and Senator Deneen. As a matter of fact, both she and Senator Deneen ven the indorsement of the Anti Senator Lewis, like Mrs. McCormick, announces to the world that he is gfl‘- sonally dry, and that he is devoted to temperance. He differs from Mrs. Mc- Cormick, however, when it comes to de- manding the repeal of the eighteenth amendment. insis t prohibition is undermining the and the institutions of the country.
