ROBINSON APPEALS Blames Wall Street for Cam- paign to Repeal Eight- eenth Amendment. By the Associated Press. In a last prohibition appeal to the Indiana voters, who today decide their State's action on repeal, Senator Arthur Robinson last night blamed Wall Street for the campaign to bring back legal lquor. “Organized wealth and the powers of Wall Street are furnishing the funds for the campaign against the eighteenth’ amendment,” said the dry Republican. “Why? In order to dodge their fair share of the cost of Government; evade income taxes and shift the bur- den onto the shoulders of the consumers of intoxicating liquor. * * * “One thing is certain. As soon as repeal is consummated, if ever, a sa- loon will be established immediately on every street corner. * * * America will go on a spree the like of which was never heard of before. Everybody who e streets. dulum will swing back beyond a doubt toward decency.” He brought the Morgan investigation into his ent, asserting that the banker, while paying no income taxes in 1931 and 1932, “launched a $2,500,000 yacht” during the period.
