Anti-Saloon League Sure
OF Ohio on q Recount
Wheeler Says States Chief Inter-
est Vas on Local Dry Issues;
Questions Referendum Vote
Ne1o York Tribune

Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Confidence
that recount of ballots will show a
dry victory on the prohibition amend
ment referendum in Ohio was ex-
pressed to-day by Wayne 3. Wheeler.
general counsel for the Anti-Saloon
League. "Thc election shows that on
the clear-cut issue Of prohibition the
state is dry by over 100000" Mr..
Wheeler said. He has been in Ohio
this week arranging for a contest and
recount on the referendum election on
the Eighteenth Amendment.
"Ohio voted against the repeal of
statewide constitutional prohibition bv
41,s39," Mr.. Wheeler said. "The ma
!ority against the amendment to legal
lze 2.75 per cent alcohol in beer was
29,667. The vote shows that there WAS
a great deal of confusion in the minds
of the voters. The campaign slogan
was to defeat the wet proposals. In
order to do this on the referendum vote
each elector had to vote yes or mark
his ballot opposite the word yes The
face of the returns shows a series of
contradictions.
There were 4S,626 more votes cast
on the referendum on the Eighteenth
Amendment than upon the question of
'~ N~teAA Va oNoIc piCHlUlllOH, NCCOrQ-
ing to the returns; about 5000 more
votes were cast in Cleveland on the
ratification issue than state-widc re-
peal; 5000 mere in Cincinnati and 8 900
III Lucas County. Inasnluch as thc
local interest on statewide prouibi-
ton was more intense than on the
Eighteenth Amendment, it is hard to
explain the figures. The announced ro-
suit on the Eighteenth Amendment ref
erendum was against the proposition
by less than 800 ma jority. Because Of
the many errors already reported and
the discrepancies manifest on the face
Of the returns the Anti Saloon League
of America and the Ohio Anti-Saloon
League have asked for a recount Of the
ballots and contest the election.
Fortunately, Ohio has an honcat
election law which provides for such
recount and contest. 1t was enacted in
1915, following statewide wet and
dry contest, where gross Irregularities
and misconduct in the election was
proved by the 'drys,' but the Supreme
Court held that there was no law by
which contest could be made The
Legislature promptly enacted one of
the most complete. honest election laws
to contest al election that can be found
in any state in the United States. We
believe that enough errors and irregd-
larties will be proved to the court to
change the results and show that a ma
Jorlry OF the voters of Ohio sustained
the Legislature in ratifying the
Eighteenth Amendment"

 An investigator of the Detroit Patriotic Fund testified last week she found Mrs. Ernest Prall, an other of today's witnesses, and her two children suffering from malnutrition and in dire poverty when she called at the Prall home.

Pike's Peak 7
 Not TdUest

Most people, if asked to name the highest mountain in Colorado, would say: "Pike's Peak"
 Yet there are no less than twen- ty-six mountains in Colorado which are HIGHER.
 Pike's Peak is generally thought to be the hiohest-because it has been extensively ADVERTISED.
 This story, by John Lee Mahin, has a moral:
 There may be twenty-six stores in this town equally as good as yours.
 But most folks, if asked to name the "best" store in your line, will name YOUR store-if you adVer- tise.
 Of course you will do all in your power to justify this confidence. You will back up your advertising with quality and service. You will deliver the goods.
 You yourself can name hundreds of products which are PREFERRED by the public because the manufae- turer knew what publicity would do for him.
 There's a hint for you in &he story of Pike's Peak. Think it over and patronize the columns of the Bisbee Daily Review, Southern Ari- zona's leading advertising medium.

HOME RIGHT RETAINED IN
 LIQUOR BILL
May Keep Cellar Full After July l, But Owner Must Drink It All Up Himself
Can Not Give It Away Or Transport It. Is Proviso Of House In Prohibition Bill

WASHINGTON, June 24.-A mans right to store liquor in his home for the long dry period after July l, stood up today against an attack on that provision of the prohibition enforce. ment bill before the house judiciary committed
 Near the end of an all day session the committee voted down an amend ment which would have made it un- lawful for a citizen to have liquor in his possession, struck out a section which would have prevented use" by a citizen of liquor in his private dwelling, and decided in the matter of general enforcement there would be no difference between war time and constitutional prohibition.
 Even with these and other changes the bill as it will be reported out to- morrow or Thursday is considered as all-embracing. So drastic are it's pro- visions, members of the committee said, that while man may put a keg of beer in his cellar he may be con victed and fined if, for instance, he wears a watch fob on which there is picture of the keg as an advertise ment.
 As amended, the section stands:
 That no person shall on or after date when the 18th amendment to the constitution of the United States goes into effect, nor while the war prohi- bition act shall be in force, manufac- ture, sell, barter, give away, trans port, import, export, deliver, furnish, receive or possess any intoxicating liquor except as authorized in this act, and all the provisions of this act shall be literally construed to the end that Intoxicating liquor as a beverage may be prohibited. Liquor for non-bever- age purposes and wine for sacramental purposes may be purchased, sold transported and used as herein pro- vided'
 Every person legally permitted to have liquor is required to report to the proper authorities within ten days after the passage of the act, and possession after that date "by any person not legally permitted under this title to possess liquors" shall be regarded as evidence that it is kept for purposes of sale. This, however, does not apply to home stocks.
 The bills definition of what is in- toxicating iquor-any beverage or product containing more than one half of l per cent alcohol-was re- tained. It was said that members of the committee discussed this section at length, some contending that if one congress undertake to define in- toxicating liquors as one-half of one per cent another congress could come along and make it 4 per cent, or any figure it chose.
