WISCONSIN VOTES 4 TOl IN FAVOR OF DRY REPEAL; ELECT ALL WET DELEGATES Second State to Ballot Against 18th Amendment Will Hold Convention in Madison on April 25 for Official Ratification. By t'niterl Press MILWAUKEE. Wis., April s.—Wisconsin joined Michigan today as the second state to vote repeal of the eighteenth amendment by naming a slate of fifteen wet delegates to a state convention which will ratify the repeal amendment to the Constitution. Returns from 1,862 of the state's 2,899 precincts gave: For repeal. 408,127; against repeal, 88.764. The vote on the delegates was by the state at large. The fifteen wet candidates topped their dry opponents by a vote that was expected to run more than 4 to 1.

The vote showed a tremendous upturn of sentiment in the past fourteen years. In 1919 Wisconsin voted 419.302 to 199.876 in favor of the Eighteenth amendment. The convention will meet April 25 formally to ratify the wishes of the voters. In Milwaukee, traditional center of beer interests, wets piled up a majority of more than 10 to 1. Drys, who had conceded before voting began that they would be unable to select a single delegate, showed the greatest strength in the southwestern section of the state, but even there the wet majority was from 2 to 1 to 4 to 1. In Oshkosh the repeal vote was nearly 10 to 1; in Kenosha, Racine and Sheboygan it ranged upward from 4 to i. Wisconsin’s repeal vote, in line with the anti-prohibition sentiment that first was climaxed two years ago when the state enforcement law's were nullified, is the home of former Senator John J. Blaine, author of the proposed repeal amendment. Michigan Monday also voted overwhelmingly in favor of repeal, being the first state to ballot on the issue. One Dry in Michigan Bp t nitrrl Press DETROIT, April 5. Michigan, first state to vote for ratification of the repeal amendment, viewed the possibility today of a constitutional convention composed of ninety-nine delegates pledged to repeal and one dry delegate. Late returns from Monday’s election added to huge wet majorities in most districts and swung others definitely into the wet column. With almost complete reports, it appeared that the district composed of Barry county alone would elect a delegate pledged to reject the amendment when the convention meets in Lansing Monday. The drys had a majority of 236 in Barry county.

HIRAM JOHNSON FIGHTS ON FOR UTILITY BILL Wants Right to Review Rato Decisions Taken From Court. By Scrippa-Howartl Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, April 5. The first blow to be struck in this new deal congress in behalf of better utility regulation is credited to Senator Hiram W. Johnson of California. Senator Johnson has renewed his fight, carried on for the past four years, to take from the lower Federal courts the right to review decisions of state regulatory commissions. His measure was reported favorably by the Senate judiciary committee in the last congress, and probably will be so reported again without delay. It is believed to have an excellent chance of becoming law in this administration. Utilities would retain the right to appeal to the United States supreme court, after receiving an adverse decision in the state courts, under the Johnson plan, but would not be able to secure an injunction or a decision from a Federal district court halting a rate ruling before state courts have had a chance to pass on it. BEGGARS ARE FLAILED No Place for Panhandler in Indianapolis. Says Minister. “There is no place for the professional beggar in Indianapolis,’’ the Rev. Herbert E. Eberhardt, superintendent of the Wheeler Rescue Mission, declared before the Universal Club in the Columbia Ciub Tuesday.

Mr. Eberhardt. advocated passage of national legislation barring “hitch-hikers” from public highways. He asked that persons approached for “handouts” refer the beggar to some organized institution because “no worthy man will beg if he can earn his food and lodging by work.” 19 UNDER ARREST HERE Held for City License Violation; Drive to Be Kept l ! p.
