VARE’S VICTORY FORGES DRY LAW EIGHT INTO OPEN Correspondent of Opinion Candidates No Longer Can Pussyfoot. Times Washington Bureau, HIS Sew York Armin' WASHINGTON, May 20.—N0 inore pussyfooting on the prohibition issue. A real jolt for President Coolidge should he decide to seek a third term. A far-reaching investigation by the United States Senate into campaign expenditures, particularly in primary contests, and: A suggested Nation wide referendum on modification of the Volstead law. These are some of the outstanding developments and results of the Pennsylvania primary election Tuesday when George Wharton Pepper was unseated as senior Senator and W illiam S. Vare was nominated as his successor by a startlingly large plurality. Vare’s victory over his two prohibition opponents, Senator Pepper and Governor Gifford Pinchot, gave Washington its biggest jolt in years, and from the White House to the (,'apitol offices Senators are seeking an explanation. Urges Referendum Vare, himself, likewise, Senator David Reed of Pennsylvania, one of the Pepper strategy board, attributed the result to the dissatisfaction over the prohibition law. Reed said the States should authorize a referendum such as has been authorized by Governor A1 Smith in New York, lie will use his influence for such a test in his own State. The emphatic manner in which Pennsylvania refused to rally to the appeal of Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Secretary of Labor Davis and other administration leaders to show their “confidence” in President Coolidge can be interpreted only ns anti-Coolidge. On the heels of the defeat of Senator McKinley in Illinois, who ran as a supporter of the President, and the election in Indiana of Senators Watson and Robinson, who have not wholly accepted Coolidge leadership, Vare’s nomination gives the White House serious cause for reflection. IS’ow for Coolidge Although he jun ms a supporter of the President, Administration leaders used the President's name freely in their speeches against Vare. Coolidge unquestionably authorized

them to do so. Vare naturally will nurse a grouch. He probablo will control the Pennsylvania delegation of 76 votes to the next Republican convention, and in the meantime he and his running mate. Governordesignate E. K\Beidelman, will control the vast patrongs from the Statehouse, all of which likely will be used against Coolidge. A senatorial investigation of tremendous expenditures in Pennsylvania in behalf of Pepper and an inquiry into forthcoming expenditures elsewhere throughout the Nation is a direct result, precipitated by dispatches from Pennsylvania by this correspondent. These dispatches were read into the Congressional Record by Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, and Senator Reed of Missouri used them as levers to force the Senatae to agree to his resolution directing an inquiry. Beer and wine as a dominant issue in the next national conventions can no longer he dodged, observers today all are agreed, nor can candidates now pussyfoot cm the subject. The Pennsylvania race is considered as a forerunner of a real showdown Tight on whether the Volstead act shall remain as is or whether it Shall be modified. Fight ill Open The fight is now in the open. The wets encouraged by Vare’s addition to the Senate, where he will join Senators Bruce of Maryland, Edwards of New Jersey and Reed of Missouri, are planning to invade other States. Former Senator David Walsh of Masachusetts, may pick up the beer issue in his campaign against Senator Butler, the Coolidge spokesman, and a, "wet” candidate probably former Senator Pomerene, may run in Ohio. In New York, Republicans are encouraged to shoot the works, as It were, on Senator Wadsworth as a wet. Always a modlficationist, Wadsworth has been doing some fancy side stepping because of the fear of the anti-Saloon League. The result showed that the Mellon influence in Pennsylvania is not nearly so far-reaching as Indicated, it will be months before the Pennsylvania expenditures are properly appraised, but the early impressions are that President Coolidge, Secretary Mellon and the Anti-Saloon League emerge from the fracas more or less crippled.
