LIQUOR BATTLE WAKES
WARMER AS DAY WAVES
Women and Camera Men Are
Prominent in Rum" Fight
at Wilmington
WILMINGTON, Del. Nov. {.

w lLMl4N'r lO.Nt lJel, NOV. "
The fight between the VETS and "drys'
in the city Of wilmington and rural New
Castle County grew in intensity this after
noon. Meetings we're held by both sides on
numerous corners in the hope Of getting
out every possible vote.
The feeling among disinterested persons
appeared to be that the city would go wet
and the rur Al part Of the county dry, each,
however, by small majority. This was
merely a guess and no one could give an
accurate forecast with anything definite
upon which to base it. SO it Is anybody's
fight until the voting ends tonight
Because of the large number of arrests
that have been made on the ground Of
alleged Illegal registration and, because of
reports of many other arrests, it was said
this afternoon that many voters were afraid
to venture to the polls.
While women cannot vote, they were very
much in evidence all over the city today
endeavoring to win votes, chiefly for the
cause of the drys. Detectives also were on
the job, as also were camera men, en-
deavoring to get snapshots Of voters the
drys suspected were not qualified.

NEW ALLIANCE RUMORED
Reports of Chilian-Argentinian Pact
Ascribed to German Intrigue

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-Evdences of
German efforts to disturb the political bal
ance in South America were seen by State
Department officials in unofficial reports re-
ceived here from Buenos Aires that an
alliance between Chill and Argentina was
being negotiated.
All information reaching the department
indicates the improbability of any such radi-
cal realignment but it was regarded as pos
sble that Count Won Luxburk the expelled
German diplomat had taken advantage of a
recent diplomatic controversy between Chill
on the one hand and Bolivia and Peru on
the other to set at work forces which might
weaken the solidarity of Latin America.
