Miss M. Louise Weedon died yester. By the Assoclated Press. DES MOINES, Iowa, June 17.—Both | sides expressed equal confidence of vic- | tory as they launched last-minute drives tonight before Iowa's special election Tuesday on_the question of repeal of national prohibition. | Repealists pinned hopes of placing Towa alongside the 11 States which have | previously ratified the twenty-firs amendment, superseding the eighteenth amendment, on & heavier than normal vote. Hope for Large Turnout. Prohibition leaders, anxious that Towa | be the first State to refuse to ratify re- | peal, also professed to see success in & large turnout. Rallies and gatherings over the State tomorrow and Monday are to stress “get out the vote” efforts. The anti-repeal outlook was outlined by Dr. J. W. Graves, executive secretary of the All-Towa Prohibition Emergency Committee, who declared that “if the womanhood and the farmers of Iowa register their opinion victory is assured.” | Judge E. G. Moon, co-chairman of the Iowa Repeal for Prosperity Commit- tee, declared ratification of repeal in Towa, “in our opinion, will assure repeal of the eighteenth amendment. “Its repeal vote will have an impor- | tant effect on results in other States, | particularly Kansas,” he said. “The important thing in this election, from our standpoint, is getting out the vote.” | Campaign Lags. Counterbalancing to some extent probability of a heavy vote were the lethargy which has prevailed during | most of the campaign, and prospect that farmers would be loath to leave their flelds election day. Warm weather also may cut the total. | Predictions that the vote might run around the 500,000 mark recalled that in 1917, when the Legislature submi!'.ed‘ a State constitutional amendment | against manufacture and sale of in-| toxicating beverages to the people, the total was near 430,000. At that time | Towa voters defeated the proposed amendment, 215,625 to 214,936. Towa then was dry, however, saloons | having been closed since January 1, 1916, | CONNECTICUT VOTES TUESDAY. ; State Expecting to Go for Repeal of | Eighteenth Amendment. } NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 17 (#)— | Connecticut, one of the two Btates which never ratified the eighteenth | amendment, Tuesday will select dele-| gates to its convention to act on the twenty-first amendment, which would repeal the prohibition laws. With Connecticut, always known as| a “wet” State, the result a] red 80 | certain that even Rev. Fletcher Parker of Hartford, State chairman of the citi« | zens against ratification, in a formal statement, said his organization did not expect to win. Both J. Henry Roraback, Republican State chairman, and David A. Wilson, Democratic State chairman, have pre- dicted that ratification will win easily. They also urged a large vote. Each side presents a ticket of 15 dele- gates at large, and a delegate from each of the 35 senatorial districts. There are no independent candidates. The ballots and labels of voting machines will bear only the names accepted by | the secretary of State. | Gov, Wilbur L. Cross will summon the 50 delegates who win to & convention. The date has not been set. Delegates will vote according to their pledges. NEW HAMPSHIRE BELIEVED WET. | Vote on Tuesday Expecied to Be for Repeal. CONCORD, N. H., June 17 (#).—New | Hampshire voters on Tuesday will bal- lot to ratify or reject the twenty-first | amendment. The present Legislature has leaned toward repeal. The new 3.2 per cent | beer was allowed to be sold by vote of | the lawmakers, and another bill, which | would permit sale of 6 per cent beer | and wines to be sold if the dry law was | repealed, was passed both houses. | This bill awaits the signature or veto of Gov, John G. Winant. | Up to a month ago Ernest L. Con- verse, State secretary of the Anti- Saloon League, was predicting that New Hampshire would vote to retain th: dry law, but recently no such statements have been issued. The Anti-Saloon League, however, has been active in its fight against a legalized Jli\mr traffic and rallies have been held in every section of the State, SOUTH IS DIVIDED. | Party Regularity Becomes Issue Again Over Repeal. | ATLANTA, June 17 (#)—Party reg- ularity has become an issue again in the South as three States—Alabama, Arkansas and Tennessee—prepare to vote next month on repeal of the eight- eenth amendment Dixie is the traditional fortress of Democracy and prohibition, and now that the party has thrown its prestige behind the repeal campaign the deep South is divided politically for the sec- ond time since the war between the States. Alabama and Arkansas will lead the parade of the potlikker belt when they vote July 18 on delegatcs to conver Tennessee will vote two days The Governor of Florida has thority to call & repeal election and friends expect him to fix it for mber. North and South Carolina vote November 7. Texas will de- ide August 26. Provisions have not been made in Virginia, Georgia, Ken-! 4ZpeFs & Its weight in the South in that election still is in dispute. And so prohibitionists must cross the moat of party regularity before theyl can attack the repealists on the ram- rts in a give and take battle, REPEAL ELECTIONS SEEN IN41 STATES: Shouse Says if These Were || Held He Could Predict Victory in 1933. By the Associated Press. { Jouett Shouse, president of the Asso- clation Against the Prohibition Amend- ij ment, said in a statement yesterday that there was a possibility of prohi bition repeal elections in 41 States this || year. i If these were held, he said he could | “confidently predict repeal before the || end of 19337 i “We expect to add three additional | States next week to the ranks of the || prohibition repeal column, bringing the | total to 14,” he said. | “Jowa, New Hampshire and Connec-‘ ticut will vote on Tuesday. Our reports from all of them are most encouraging. | “During the week, two additional || States set dates for repeal elections to | be held this year—Arizona on October ‘1 3, and Idaho on September 19. Attor- || n General McKittrick of Missouri | ruled that the State referendum law | does not apply to the Weeks act pro- viding for a repeal election and it is likely Gov. Park will call an election || in August. i “A petition with a sufficlent number of signatures has been presented for a ;recinl session of the Legislature in orth Dakota, where the repeal elec- || tion bill failed of enactment at the regular session earlier in the year. “It is expected that the Colorado Legislature, in special session in July, will provide for a repeal election in November, 1934, with a mandatory pro- vision, however, that the Governor must call a jal election this year, when and if 33 other States have rati- fied. We are confident of that out- come. “A special session of the Mississippi | Legislature is anticipated in August, so that a vote on repeal there this year is possible. “With 16 elections by the end of | | June and dates set definitely for 1833 in 17 others, four others are expected to || vote this year. If to that group of 37 we add Colorado, Mississippi, Oklahoma | and North Dakota as States voting in || 1?33. ‘we would have a total of 41 elec- tions.” _ His summary of the repeal situation in the States follows States which have completed action for conventions . .. 39 States which failed to act or Gov- ernors vetoed bills . . States where Legislatures aré not in SeaiOn ... .. ... .. gaieeee States which have voted .o 11 2 it A T. I. BEUCHERT FUNERAL AT RESIDENCE TOMORROW Retired Restauranteur, Lifelong D. C.
