SEE PROHIBITION •** < AS ISSUE IN 1928 ! " I Wets and I)rys Laying Plans To Meet Issue In Presidential Campaign Washington, Nov. 4. — (United Press)—Prohibition Is destined, in the opinion of wets and drys here today, to become thetlbmlnant 1928 presidential campaign issue. Drys are already laying plans with this issue in mind. The national temperance council, the United Press learns, will convene here next month with the 1928 campaign—on a dty-wet basis—«s Its chief topic of discussion. This organization is a sort of super-organization embpdylng the AntiSaloon* Leagup and all other dry groups. Wets, too, foresee that prohibition will be the fighting issue of 1928. Drys assert the Tuesday election results leave unaltered the strength they have had in congress. But they see in Gov. Al Smith’s New York gubernatorial victory a ’ sign that a wet is likely to be strong Ily in the lists as democratic presi dential campaign timber. Dry leaders foresee”that President Coolidge, if he becomes a candidate.

*' ' ■■ !■■»■■■■■ i L t .i4' iJm. ~, w ih, J.iiT L." a •» will be for the dry side. , These drys would welcome the can- 1 dldacy of Smith, for, they say, it would deni the wets a terrible blow. ' They believe the solid democratic south would knife Smith as a wet, since the south Is admittedly dry. One of the men In drydom's Inner councils suid today the Smith candidacy would f tear the democratic party apart. The south would vote for a republican pres dent rather than for a wet, he asserted. Wayne B. Wheeler, head of the Anti-Saloon league here, contended the Tuesday outcome showed the drys won "In every state where they hud a fighting chance except Massachusetts" that the wets "got only nine out of 35 senators elected," and "over 300 members of the house with dry records or pronouncements have been elected." p— , ■ County Commissioners End Session Wednesday The county commissioners adjourn'd last evening, disposing of S'v-ral natters during the dav.
