REPEAI_ S"UA"UN New Stone Marks Boundary FINISHING TOUCHES PUT ON CHEVY CHASE CIRCLE MARKER IN STATES STUDIED Vote Sure in 36, Several Others Are Considering Elections This Year. By the Associated Press. | ‘With votes on prohibition repeal vir- tually certain to be held this year m“ 36 States—the number necessary wi abolish the eighteenth amendment— | repeal leaders last night were studying | the possibility of votes being had in some of the remaining 12 States before January 1. To date 20 States have voted repeal of the eighteenth amendment through approval of the twenty-first amend- ment. None has favored retention of constitutional prohibition. | These are the States that have set | votes for the remaining months of this year: August 8.—Arizona. August 19—Missouri. August 26—Texas. August 29—Washington. September 5—Vermont. September 11—Maine. September 12—Maryland and Min- nesota. September ~ 19—Idaho Mexico. October 10—Florida. November 7—North and South Caro- lina, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Colorado Governor to Act. ‘The Governor of Colorado has an- nounced he will call the Legislature of | his State into session August 1 to set a vote for September 5. This would be the thirty-sixth State to vote. Repealists already claim Arizona by default, the prohibitionists having failed to name candidates to represent their side in the election in that State. Three States where repeal forces have said they were hopeful of getting votes this year are Utah, Virginia and Mon- tana. Gov. Blood of Utah told th Legis- lature last week national sentiment for | repeal was a “mass movement” and| suggested a vote in that State on No- vember 7. and New new stone marker indicating the ANGIONO is shown putting the finishing touches on the design on the o the District of Columbia at Chevy Chase Circle. e e s e boundary line between Maryland and —=Star Staff Photo. The Governor of Montana has an- nounced he would invoke the power given him by the Legislature and call a repeal election whenever it became necessary fo rMontana to be the thirty- sixth State to ratify repeal. The Virginia Legislature meets in spe- cial session August 17 and is expected to set a vote for this year. Oklahoma Won't Vote This Year. Gov. Murray of Oklahoma, who was authorized by the Legislature to call a special repeal election any time after December 5, has announced he would not_use the authority and Oklahoma would not vote before the July, 1934, Tap Brewers Protest and Dr. New Issue Will Be primary. Oklahoma, in a recent beer referendum, favored that beverage by nearly 100,000 majority. e “Two Staies--Nebraska and South Da- | peor, on€ of the problems of the Hole of Modern Beer Kegs Too Large for Old-Time Stamp largement—Master Die Being Made and kota—have definitely set their elections for November 6, 1934, but there is agi- tation in three other States, whose Legislatures do not meet regularly until next year, for special sessions. These three are Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi. Gov. Laffoon of Kentucky is consid- ering calling a special session shortly. A special election in Mississippi is not considered likely, and one in Louisiana | is a matter of speculation. Three Fail to Set Vote. Legislatures in Georgia, Kansas and North Dakota failed to set up prohibi- tion voting machinery. On the basis of partly official and slightly incomplete returns, the 20 States that have favored repeal did so with popular votes of 8,672,625 for repeal and 2,575,761 against repeal. The 20 States are: Michigan, Wiscon- sin, Rhode Island, Wyoming, New Jer- sey, Delaware, Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, Iowa, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Nevada, California, West Virginia, Alabama, Arkansas, Ten- nessee and Oregon. State conventions to record formally the sentiment of the voters generally are he%d about a month after the popular votes.

They sald the stamps would scarcely cover the new tap hole. Much of the material around the tap hole is metal. Stamps don’t stick well to metal. ‘There wasn’t enough stamp extending over the metal to adhere to the wooden keg or barrel e Besides this, there is & rushing busi- ness in beer. Brewery workers who paste the Government stamps on the tap holes have to do it in a hurry— or they would, if the size of the stamps permitted. | So Dr. James M.
