hibition In Tuesdays election indicat-
ed that women do not unanimously
oppose saloons.
Women failed In two Pacific coast
states to turn out saloons. although
the exact status OF the female vote on
the subject In California and Wash
ington has not been tabulated yet
Both these states voted for the first
time to Gust saloons and In both the
voting OF women Is comparatively a
novelty. The vote In favor OF retain
ing saloons was large I'm both states.
The California proposed amendment
was very drastic and would have pro-
hibited the manufacture Of wines. one
of the chief industries OF the state.
The s~evereness OF the proposed law
Ia given by leaders OF the Anti-Saloon
league as a possible reason for the de-
feat OF the measure.
The women In California succeeded
In passing a law for closing all resorts
with women inmates. Returns on this
question are meager. but returns In
dictate that segregated vice districts
In California will be voted out
