he had found evidence in official docu-

the two towns have been forced to dis
continue legalizing the sale of liquor

Der of the state committee from the Third congressional district
 Plans of the local optionists became known Thursday following dispatches from Washington announcing that the House judiciary committee would make favorable report on the Sheppard amend ment and would place it on the calendar for immediate action. Local optionists admit that there is no specific provision for the submission of the question un- der the primary election laws but contend that such can be done, that if the regular primary election ballot cannot be used another can be prepared and submitted to ali voters and that the state execu- tive committee has as much right to order this submission as it had several years ago to provide for the nomina- tion of alternate senators.
 John H. Wallace, Jr.. local option can- didate for governor, Thursday announced his support of the proposed action be- fore the state committee and declared that he would in his campaign urge the voters to send to the house and senate men who would support the will of the people expressed by ballot and that if the state committee should refuse to submit the question he would urge the voters to name men who would refuse to ratify the Sheppard amendment. The amendment is an aggression by the fed eral government upon the rights of the states to regulate their domestic af- fairs,' said MT. Wallace, and it obliter- ates the sound and patriotic scheme of local self government championed by Jefferson and reverts to the Hamiltonian idea of concentration and centralization of power in Washington" He con- tends that the voters in 1909 rejected constitutional amendment for prohibit tion and have not since expressed any preference for prohibition.
