Bay State Also Gives Thought fo Dry Laws Boston, Oct. 20.—(P—Massachu- setts, largest state to vote democratic in the 1928 presidential election, but traditionally republican, ponders the problems of unemployment and pro- hibition as both parties beg the sup- port of her 1,600,000 voters in the elaction November 4. On that date the public,<fow listening to nightly political radio appeals, reading political literature in its morning mail and rousing now and then to hearken to an old-fash- foned rally, will decide several ques- tions. First, it will determine whather or not William M. Butler, a dry re- publican, triend of Calvin Coolidge, or Marcus A. Coolidge, a wet demo- crat, will succeed to the United States sena': seat soon to be vacat- ed by Frederick H. Gillett, republic- an. It will decide whether or not its present dry, republican governor, Frank G. Allen, will succeed himsel? or be succeeded by Joseph B. Ely, a wet democrat. 1t will decide whether or not its prohibition enforcement law, popu- larly called “the baby Volstead act,” will be repeated. To Elect 16 * And it will choose 16 representa- tives to sit in congress. The democrats, party and individ- ual leaders alike, have denounced prohibition and have laid upon re- publican policies much of the blame for depression and unem- ployment. The leaders of the republican ticket are dry, although no less than half 4 dozen republican congress- men or aspirants for congress are classed as wets. They stand on a platform which upholds the party's 1928 declaration for law-enforce- ment—although it also counsels vot- ers to awalt the findings of the pres- ident’s law-enforcement commission and expressed the bellef that the will of the majority will prevail. The re- publicans have pledged themselves to rehabilitate business and relieve unemployment and point to efforts already made to aid both business and worker. Butler, campaign manager for former President” Coolidge, and formerly chairman of the republican national committee, was appointed to the senate after the death of Henry Cabot Lodge but was defeated later by Sematqy David 1. Walsh, democrat. ! Will Support President Declaring that the dominant issue of the campaign is the rebuilding of business and the creation of more vlaces for workers, he has pledged himself to work for those ends and to support the president. Butler, himself a leader in the cotton manu. facturing industry, proposes a fed- eral 48-hour law to equalize condi- : ; 88 tions of labor. * F His opponent, Coolidge, says that ; : e ; i ; B 3 g THOUSANDS CHEERING! “the Coolidges are men of few 2 o 2 i % = b £ = ¥ i ills! words” but he has, by radio and at 2 3 E : ¢ 4 : b 2 ¢ & The whistle shrills!

Therefore, he pur- 5 : " & i af poses to work for modification of G the enforcement law and proposes raising the definition of intoxicating liquor fram a half to one per cent to 12 or 15 per cent. He has sug- gested a federal commission to su- pervise distribution of such bever- ages. He has struck at the present tariff as a contributing cause of wunem- . ployment. He holds that light and power rates are of tremendous im- / portance and proposes giving to a federal comimssion power to regu- late interstate rates of hydro-elce- tric companies. Governor Allen is dry, but that is- . gue has played but little part in his B campaign. He stands for reelection upon his record in office, - pointing to welfare measures for the sick and the aged, pointing to a steadily shrinking state debt, and emphasize ; [ ing a program of construction of state roads and buildings that has released and is releasing many mil- O i [ lions of dollars—thus creating jobs for workers throughout the state. Wants Repeal Ely assalls prohibition and advo- cates repeal. He has kept that is- suc to the front in his drive for of- fice. But he also has attacked the re- publican economic policy.
