A letter friend who has read my
talk on the houscwork girl who does
not want to work in home where there
arc several children. wants TO know
what l think of a landlord who does
not want to rent his house or apart
mcnt 10 a family with several children.
What she thinks is perfectly plain.
She is a mother of five.
1t is not at all difficult to answer her
question.
IT'S Hard On the Man With Family
think /, is terribly hard on pCopi :
who are having enough Of a strugEl;
To bring up family Of children. IN
rticsc days of dollars that wont buy q
half a dollars worth, to have TO be dis
eliminated against because they are do
ing their duty by the race.
Also | think it is terribly hard on
landlords who arc having enough OF
struggle TO get return from their prop
crty, in these days when dollar
worth of repairs costs at least two dol
lars and when taxes arc having an as
cention race with tho high cost Of living
to have to have their rent automatically
reduced by renting to q family WIN
several undISciplinrd children who Will
double the repair cost.
AL Children Are Not UndiscipNned
But
Doubtless some one is going 70 SUE
Ecst that all children are not undlf-
ciplined. They are not, but many arr
especially as regard matters which dN
not come hack upon the convenience or
pocket books of their own people.

CRABBE BILL DEFEATED
Continued Prom Page one.)
1000 to 5000 and the crabbe proh,o-
ition enforcement BILL ae1e"'eo ~
moro than 20 900.

COIJfNBI"S, Nov. with practlcaily
complctc returns in from all Dut 81 vi
the IS counties of the state. inc ih'I,'"
lions tonight are that the CraDpe Dill
for the purpose of enforcing prohibition
in Ohio has been defeated BY maJorl''
Of probably 10000.
The vote on the ratification OF inc ieu-
eral prohibition amendment is very close
and probably the official count Will DC
required to determine the result.
With 81 counties out wet maJorliieS
on the four prohibition amendments are
Crabbc bill, STATS; ratification 94,iI
repeal of state wide prohibition. 401l'
defining liquor ut 2.75 percent. 1851.
Practically all of the 81 counties lha'
have not yet reported arc dry. IL Is
said that these will give dry majority
of over n thousand each, thus 1t appears
possible that these returns may wipe
out the wet majority on federal prohiol-
ton OF 2i,ll3. There is no question thaI
repeal Of state wide prohibition ana IN
ing of beer Mt 2.75 percent alcohol nave
been defeated. In some quarters tnnight
il was believed that ratification or 1. D
prohibition has been upheld by about
1000.

The Wet Figures

COLUMBUS, Nov. 6-L. II. GIBSON
manager Of the Ohio Home Rule assoc
iation (wct organization) at his head
quarters at Cincinnati tonight, issued
statement giving results from eighty
five counties which he said had been
rcceivcd by him. These results showed
the 2.75 percent beer proposal to be de-
feated by 21,470: the proposal to repeal
state wide prohibition defeated by 80
O61; tho federal prohibition amendment
defeated by 1856 and the Crabbc prohib-
ition enforcement bill defeated by 2ir
9QS.
or the 20 counties from which no re-
turns have been received all gave aver
age dry majoritics last year of approx
imrtcly 1000 except two whose total
wet majority was 2.440.
Should the dry majorities Of n year
ago in tho 30 counties yet to report only
be maintained without any increases, II
is figured the els percent beer proposal
will be defeated by 1856; the proposal
to repeal state prohibition defeated by
27.l66; the federal prohibition amend
mcnt defeated by l.2l1 and the Crabb9
prohibition enforcement measure defeat
ed BY 22,1S1.
