Repeal Chief Jubilant;
Dry Leader Says Fight
On Rum Never to End
NEW YORK. July 30. (P Repeal,
of the 18th amendment before the
end of 1933 waa held today to be cer
tain by Jouett Shouse, president of
the national association against pro
hibition. 'The verdict of the American peo
ple Is Just as certain, is Just as well
known snd Is Just as commanding
w as It will be when the last detail
has been completed," Shouse said in
a statement commenting on the re
peal elections Tuesday in .Arkaansas
and Alabama.
It is now highly probable," the
ststement continued, "that not mere
ly the necessary 36 states will ratify
the pending proposed 21st amend
ment to the federal constitution but
that It will be ratified by all the 48
states of the union.
"This Is certainly a result to be
hoped for In order that the steps
toward repeal may be taken by an ab
solutely unified nation.
"Defeated successfully In such
strongholds as Indiana. Iowa and
West Virginia, our prohibition friends
fell back upon the south as their last
possible line of defense. Now that It
has been demonstrated beyond cavil
that the south, ton. favors repeal, now
that It Is apparent that no possible
list of thirteen states can be complied
which will hold out against repeal,
Is It not the part of wisdom for the
dry forces to submit gracefully to the
popular will and resume the construc
tive work toward temperance which
has been so utterly destroyed thru
the attempt at national prohibition?1
Shouse added orally that In his
opinion "the greatest aid to temper
ance is to have beer sold on every
corner."

ber of Commerce,
Last year the federal government
spent approximately $35,000 on this

number of business men In the city
will accompany the caravan to
the Llant, which Is reported to be
one of the most up-to-date in the
United States.
Those who desire to make the trip
are urged to communicate with the

WASHINGTON, July 30. (P)
Bishop James Cannon, Jr., said today
in a statement on the result of the
repeal elections In Alsbama and Ar
kansas that "the repeal of the eight
eenth amendment would not change
the basal facts In the warfare against
the liquor traffic
If the eighteenth amendment Is
repealed." the southern Methodist
churchman said, "It will be because
of. first lack of effective federal en
forcement. failure to ask for suffi
cient men and money to enforce the
li w; second, to lack of effective ataie
cooperation, some states following
the leadership of Governor Smith in
New York, adopting the policy of
practical nullification; third, to In
tense Roman Catholic opposition; the
Catholic heirarchy and Catholic press
having aggressively opposed the pro
hibition law.
Other factors have combined to
produce the present situation but
those mentioned are the principal
ones. The warfare of society with the
liquor traffic Is Inevitable, irrepress
ible and continuous and society will
finally Inevitably be compelled to
prohibit the traffic Just aa it has
prohibited the traffic In narcotic
orugs. The present campaign may fin
ally be lost but the war will continue
with unabated vigor for the abolition
of the traffic and for total abstinence
by the Individual."
