Wet And Dry And Labor
Question Will Play I'M

Administration Forces Look
For Thompson to Carry
Them to Victory

Columbus. O.. Aug. Cry the AS

publican voters In tomorrows state
wide primary will follow trail blazed
bv Indiana. Pennsylvania and Iowa,
and nominate progressive candidate
over the organizations choice for gov
ernor; whether they will repudiate the
states stand on prohibition and nomi-
nate light wine and beer candidate,
and whether labor's choice OF candf
dates will prove to be the popular
ones, were the dominant subjects on
the eve OF the balloting-
With Congressman Charles J.
Knight OF Akron as their standard
bearer, the progressives hope TO swing
Ohio into the list OF progressive
states.
Administration forces have pinned
their faith In the ability Of Carl A,
Thompson of Cleveland to lead them
to victory. With Thompson. also, the
drys under the leadership Of the Anti,
Saloon league hope to hold Ohio IN
the ranks of absolute prohibition.
The extreme vets are expected 70
throw their support TO c. Homer Du,
rand. Coshocton attorney and leader
in former wet and dry fights. who is
an out-and-out light wine and beer ad'
vocate. The more conservative vets,
however, are expected to throw their
support to Secretary Of State Harvey
Smith OF GAINESVILLE. who has been
classed as a wet by the Ant-Saloon
league. Smith has contended prohibi,
ton is not an issue, and has advocated
law enforcement.
On the eve Of the balloting there
was filed with the secretary OF state
a petition calling for the submission
Of a light wine and beer amendment
TO the state constitution to be voted
upon at the November election. The
senatorial contest. in which Senator
Pomerene and Congressman Fess, for.
mer chairman OF the Republican ma
tional committee, generally are admit
ted by leaders to be the leading can
didates, has been complicated by the
endorsement Of their opponents by
labor organizations. Labor has given
its endorsement to former Congress
man John ]. Lentz. Columbus. against
Senator Pomerene, and former Senat
or Charles Dick OF Akron against Con
gressman Fess. Mr.. Fess also has two
other opponents, former Lieut.-Gover
nor John H. Arnold OF Columbus and
David W. Wood, an inmate OF the
Ohio Soldiers home at Sandusky. Ar
mold claims to be q progressive.
