HOOSIERS VOTE 2-1 FOR REPEAL IN DIGEST POLL l 131.040 Want Change, 61,262 Say No, New Report Shows. Indianians favoring: repeal of the eighteenth amendment hold a majority of more than 2 to 1 over those urging its retention as the Literary Digest this week tabulates 192,302 straw votes from the Hoosier state. The Indiana figures, to be. announced in Saturday’s issue of the Digest, are: Favoring repeal, 131,040; favoring continuance, 61,262. Thirty-two states representing a combined population of over 85,000,000 are voting within a fraction of 3 to 1 wet, as more than 4.000,000 ballots are tabulated in the current report. Nine states with a total population of more than 19,000,000 register a dry sentiment of 40 per cent or more. Os these states Kansas alone gives a definite majority for continuance of the prohibition amendment, while. North Carolin is almost dry. Northeast Wettest The wettest section of the United States as evidenced by the poll figures extends from the Mississippi river to the Atlantic ocean above the Mason-Dixon line, with the dampest concentration in the group of states of New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island. The dryest sector is the belt of twelve states extending from Texas and Oklahoma to the Atlantic ocean Including Kentucky and Virginia and excepting Florida. The Pacific coast states are voting slightly over three to one wet, about the same as those states in the upper Mississippi valley. The Rocky Mountain section registers approximately three to two sentiment for repeal. 4 Million Votes Counted A total of 4,009.499 ballots are tallied this week of which 1,046,113, or 26.09 per cent, vote for continuance of prohibition and 2,963,386, or 73.91 per cent, are for repeal. As an answer to charges that the poll does not represent the women of the nation, The Literary Digest tombrrow will publish returns of a special referendum of all registered voters of Portland. Maine, which was selected, it is stated, because it was one of the oldest prohibition centers in the whole country. The canvass was so arranged, announcement is made, that the ballots returned by women voters could be distinguished from those returned by men voters and still remain secret ballots. 14,598 ballots were mailed to men and 11,958 ballots were mailed to women, the total of which constituted the entire registered electorate of the city. Os 3.981 replies returned by men 970 or 24.36 per cent, voted dry and 3,011. or 75.64 per cent voted wet. Women Favor Repeal Os the 11.958 ballots mailed to the women 1.126, or 38.45 per cent, voted for continuance of the prohibition amendment and 1,802, or 61.55 per cent, voted for repeal. Dr. William Seaver Woods, editor-in-chief of the magazine, states that he has received a number of complaints from people who claim to have received more than one ballot. This he accounts for by the fact that the Literary Digest is conducting supplementary polls of lawyers, bankers, doctors, and clergymen concurrently with the main referendum and the letter of instruction that accompanies the ballot in each of these minor polls informs the receiver that the additional ballot may be a duplication, but that it will not be counted in the main poll.
