PROHIBITIONISTS TO RUN TICKET

j Chicago, July B.—A prohibition ticket may be put in the field again j this fall, according to an announce--1 ment made today by Virgil G. Hinshaw, chairman of the prohibition national committee. He declared “both the democratic and republican national parties in omitting a plank endorsing the eighteenth amendI ment had dismally failed to live up Ito the standard demanded by the i American people in forty-five states.” • Decisions as to a ticket will be 1 made, he said, at the national convention to be opened in Lincoln, Neb., on July 21. Mr. Hinshaw said that the prohibition party considered it “incumbent on us to maintain a party organization to give expression to the millions of dry voters.”
