Smiths prohibition views have been
upon as q powerful leverage both
in cities like Philadelphia and Pitts

ers of foreign extraction. and many
Of them are Catholics. Here In
Philadelphia, Senator Wares repub-

ranks many leaders who are both
wet and Catholic, and Wares own
illness during most OF the campaign
has not made for solidarity among
his lieutenants.
