LAUNCH DRIVE 1 TO KEEP BOTH PARTIES DRY Allied Prohibition Forces Open Country-Wide Campaign. BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June o.— zation of a nation-wide prohibition campaign, with its aim to keep both major political parties dry in the 1932 presidential race, was under way today under auspices of the allied forces for prohibition, led by outstanding figures. At the same time, Amos W. W. Woodcock, federal prohibition director, was out with a “winning program” for federal enforcement. This had as its keystones attention of the government to the big commercial violator, with the speakeasy problem largely left to local agencies, and education by the dry forces as a means of securing the support of the individual citizen. Campaign Is Outlined Almost simultaneously with this pronouncement was an outline by the Rev. Daniel A. Poling, New York prohibition leader and chairman of the allied forces of the campaign to keep the two political parties dry in 1932. A battery of prohibition orators, including Senators William E. TBorah (Rep., Idaho) and Morris Sneppard (Dem., Tex.) will take thg stump in a tour across the country between Sept. 8 and Oct. 18. Poling estimated that by the time the two national conventions meeting in 1932, his organization will have obtained signed pledges from at least 2,000,000 voters. Funds to Be Raised Governor Gifford Pinchot (Pa.), who has been mentioned as a Republican presidential candidate, is one of the sponsors of the campaign, as is William Gibbs McAdoo (Dem.), former secretary of the treasury. Poling said the dry campaign expenses, estimated at about $350,000, will be raised first from contribution by sponsors, then by general solicitation from prohibitionists, and finally by collections at mass meetings. He plans about 1,500 meetings in 257 cities, including every state capital. The speaking campaign will be supplemented by newspaper advertising and radio addresses.
