ray OF facts to snow that absolute
prohibition is the only means by
which the state can overcome tie
evils Of alcohol The next speaker
was Curtis Dooley. With the Grafton,

ton covered in a general way tie

written Grafton, and this was com
bined with an effective stage deliy-
cry.
In the ranking of the judges less
than one per cent separated the
