DRY STRONGHOLD INWET NEW YORK| = Woman Attorney Hits at Pro- posed Repeal as Sur- * render to Lawless. NEV/ YORK (N.AN.A).—The Na- tion thinks of New York as a wet city, if not the wettest, and yet this is the headquarters of a considerable dry propaganda and the position of leading drys here has remained unshaken despite all the evidence, freely acknowl- edged, that in public places and private homes the drinking of alcoholic beverages is widespread and unabashed. Bertha Rembaugh, attorney, frankly grants that so long as the present public temper remains the prohibition law cannot be enforced with the resources now available. Her sttitude is that the standing of law itself is at stake and that repcaling this particular law would be surrender to the lawless. She has little patience with persons who point to the forefath:rs’ rebellion against iniquitous laws. “When they were lawless," she says, “they were lawless in behalf of some- thing besides the gratification of & physical appetite.” (Coryright, 1930. by North American News- paper Alliance.)
