LIQUOR DEALERS
MAKE FIRST MOVE.

That the liquor dealers of the state
are planning a counter attack in the
statewide prohibition fight this fall was
indicated when Secretary of State
Vaughan approved form Of blank Pc
tition providing an amendment to the
constitution whereby the local option
unit would be changed from the county
to the city and township.
The petition was Forwarded to the
state department from a Detroit a.
torney who is closely identified with tfn
campaign against the adoption of tho
statewide prohibition amendment.
1t is said the amendment to be initiat-
ed by the "wets" is for the purpose a
enlisting the active support of tho
"wet" sympathizers in local optioa
counties. If prohibition is defeated
and the amendment initiated by Tho
"wets" to change the local option unit
is carried. it is claimed that thousands
of saloons will be restored in countiss
where local option has prevailed for
years.
