CARTER FACTION
CLAIMS BACKING
FROM DRY WING
Asserts Flying Squadron
Comment Shows Favor
to Judge.
BY ROBERT BEARD

Wet and dry aspects of the three
sided race for the Republican nomi-
nation for United States Senator
we're bidding for attention today
when division of dry sentiment
appeared on the horizon.
BackerS of Scion J. Carter Re-
publican senatorial candidate, were
interpreting as tacit Endorsement
of his candidacy an editorial in the
National Enquirer, organ OF the
"extra-dry" Flying Squadron Foun-
dalton.
Although Indiana Anti-Salcon
League headquarters attached little
Importance to the Flying Squad
ron's favorable appraisal of Carter,
it was admittedly in direct contra
diction to the Leagues recommen-
dations in the Senate race.
Pledge Dry Law Support
DESPITE the statements of Car
ter and Attorney General Arthur l..
Gilliom, rival candidate for the
nomination, that they are for strict
enforcement of dry laws, the Anti
Saloon League has made 1t clear
that Senator Arthur R. Robinson is
its choice for the nomination, as ne
was two years ago.
The leagues opposition to Carter
and Gilliom made it the accepted
belief that they would divide the
anti Robinson vote.
Referring to Carriers statement
that it was not consistent with the
theory of the Constitution to write
the Eighteenth amendment into 1t,
but that he was for it's enforcement
since it was enacted, the Flying
Squadron's organ said.
Places Confidence in Carter
I'm the light of the facts, at this
early stage of the contest, II
seems that Robinson and Carter
will divide the dry VOTE" and OF
Carriers candidacy; "On the basis
of that statement, assuming Judge
Carter to be a man of his word, drys
need not be afraid to support nm.
Oliver w. Stewart, Flying Squad
ron Foundation president, said II
was not the Enquirer'S intent to in
dorse any candidate, "but to give the
public the facts"
The Flying Squadron was organ
lied by former Governor j. Frank
Hanly, marshaling into its ranks
ultra drys who differed from the
Anti-SaIoon League policy with ref
erence to prohibition as a political
issue.
Asserts VETS Back GilliOm
The Flying Squadron organ at the
same time said Gilliom appears 10
be the choice of the vets. He
deserves nothing at the hands Of
the supporters of the Eighteenth
Amendment"
Of Senator Robinson, the dry
organ said, "his vote and whatever
influence he has had in the Senate
have been given freely in support
of prohibition. But he has his
liabilities" It cited Robinson as an
enemy of the World Court, referred
to charges of utilization with D. c.
Stephenson, and observed his
prestige is suffering acutely from
what was, to say the least, a
blunder, namely-his feeble and
futile effort to meet the charges
against Republicans in connection
with the oil scandals by bringing
similar indictments of Democrats"
