Committee, admitting there has been a shift of public opinion re- ‘garding Prohibition enforcement, but indicating his belief that the Prohi- bition! questio#® would not be taken out of politics within this generation. Mrs. Robinson had been attacked by @ Republican leader on tho party's attitude toward Prohibition, and wrote of it to Mr. Harding.. The receipt of the President's reply was annolunced yesterday afternoon at the meeting of the R@publican Neighborhood Asso- ciation in the home of Mrs. Walter James, . 7 East 70th Street, in the courgg, of an exciting analysis'of the rece! election. Mrs. Robinson re- fused to give the text of the Presi- dent’s coffimunication but verified the gist of it. Two Whndred and fifty women of wealth ease packed Mrs. James's drawing m to give personal testi- mony of their servicé™before and on Election Da They applauded when thelr President, Mrs. James Russell Pgrsons, charging ‘‘incompetence,”’ achery’’ and ‘‘disloyalty’’ within the’ party. organization, called for a reorganization. Mrs. Parsons de- clared a recount in the 15th Election District would show Schuyler Meyer elected.
