‘STATE IS DRY,' YORK ASSERTS; DENIES DEFEAT Anti-Saloon League Head Maps Plans to Fight Repeal Action. BY BEN STERN With ‘heads bloody, but unbowed,” leaders of Indiana's prohibition forces prepared today to fight to the last ditch in defense of the Wright bone-dry law and against any liberalization measures whether it be for beer or ‘‘hard liquors.” Checking of election returns reveals that there has been elected to the general assembly a scant baker's dozen of dry indorsed senators and representatives. “Indiana is not wet and I can prove it,” declared L. E. York, superintendent of the Indiana AntiSaloon League. “As our reports come in, we find that the dry league-indorsed candidates ran far ahead of the rest of the ticket.” Points Out Dry Vote York pointed out, in substantiation of this statement, that David Hogg of Ft. Wayne, Republican candidate for re-election to congress in the Fourth district, a dry of record, ran 5,000 votes ahead of Hoover. The popularity of Franklin D. Roosevelt was all that pulled over James I. Farley, Democratic wet candidate, York said. “If the presidential candidates had run close, or if Roosevelt’s margin pf victory in the Fourth district merely had been one or two thousand votes, Hogg would have won,” York said. “The same is true in the Sixth district, where Fred Purnell, Republican, the incumbent dry, was defeated by Mrs. Virginia Jenckes of Terre Haute, wet and a Democrat. There also Purnell ran ahead of Hoover, and if the vote on President had been close, Purnell would have been elected.” Defense Plans Mapped Plans for the defense of the state dry laws have not been completed but York indicated that every resource of the Anti-Saloon League wculd.be thrown into the fight to keep the prohibition statutes on the books. This is the worst dry defeat ever recorded in an Indiana election. A campaign of “pitiless publicity” for the legislator or state official who fights to make the state wet will be made by the dry forces, York said. Several conferences of the league’s strategy board will be held. Another plan which may be pursued hsre is that outlined by F. Scott Mcßride, head of the national dry forces, which calls for prohibitionists to attempt to persuade congressmen and senators,

elected on wet or moist planks, to change their minds. York also declares that Marion county is dry because Jacob Weiss, w'ho led the wet fight in the house of representatives during the special session and who is Democratic state senator-elect, this time rar low on the ticket. “Weiss was paired on the machine with Winfield Miller, a stat~ senator who is dry of record and the fact that Miller pulled such a vote shows that the county is dry,” York said. ‘WO LIFE’ IS TOPIC Miss Zelma Smith to Give ■'Lecture at Children’s Museum. “Wild Life of the West” will be the topic of Miss Zelma Smith, science teacher of School 41, speaking at 9:30 Saturday before the opening nature study class of the second six-weeks’ term at Children’s museum.
