VOTE OF STATE LEGIONNAIRES SLAPSNOOVER Political Worm Is Turned by Upset on Bonus, Dry Issues. BY BEN STERN Hoosicr politicians figuratively turned a half-dozen handsprings over night as a result of the vote of this state’s delegation to the American Legion convention on the questions of a wet referendum and Immediate cash payment of the World war bonus. Indiana legionnaires have spoken and political nanawagon experts are getting ready to climb on. Although uninstructed on the wet and dry issue by the Anderson convention it was assumed that the greater number of the 45 delegates would vote dry and against the referendum. Instead the delegation split with 24 for the referendum and 21 against it. Deaf Ear to Plea Therefore if the Legion represents a cross section of Hoosier voters this state is now at least modification in sentiment. Instructed to vote in favor of immediate cash payment of the bonus, the Indiana delegation cast 44 votes for it and 1 against. Yet this vote came after President Hoover had made a personal plea to vote down such a measure. True, the delegation was instructed, yet it amounts to a tantamount rebuke of the President. However, the bonus vote while of Paramount importance is not as significant politically as the referendum decision. Referendum Plank Certain More than a year ago Senator James E. Watson declared in favor of a referendum on the prohibition question but no great publicity was given this move. , Now it is almost a certainty that

both major parties in politically dry Indiana will have at least referendum planks in their 1932 platform. It is certainly going to be tough on the professional political drys who will have to figure out someway of gracefully changing their position. One of the important Republican managers in Marion county and the state declared Wednesday that no organization reflects public sentiment like the legion. “And believe me boy, if they go •wet, the parties are going to have to go wet," he added. The one or two Hoosier politicans who sat alone on the old wet wagon will probably find themselves crowded off by the overnight advocates, who yesterday sported the white ribbon on convention floors and a cocktail shaker in their hotel rooms. Or will you have yours straight?

DOAK STRESSES VISION Emphasizes Need of Facing Slump With “Faces to Front.” By United Press WEST WARWICK, R. L, Sept. 25. —Secretary of Labor William N. Doak emphasized the need of facing the current depression with “faces to the front and steps onward,” in

an address here today at the Pawtuxet Valley fair. “Something seems to be wrong just at present with the whole machinery of the universe,” Doak said. “But the machinery of the universe, like the machinery of the factory, can be set to rights, and with energy, determination and vision it will be set to rights.” Doak said this country has all the resources which make for prosperity, but “circumstances seem to

have conspired to make even those countries which have plenty, feel the stress of poverty.”
