PARTIES WORRIED
BY WET-DRY ISSUE
G. O. P. Leaders to Insist on
Anti-RepeaI Plank-Demo-
Gratis in Quandary.
BY FRANCIS M. STEPHENSON,
Associated Press stan Writer.

Republican dry chieftains are pre-
pairing to insist that their party's 1882
platform contain a plank declaring
against repeal Of the eighteenth
amendment.
They are biding their time, quietly
awaiting, meanwhile, the returns from
the congressional elections two weeks
hence, but already limitations are
heard that unless this plank against
repeal is incorporated in the RepubH-
can platform third party movement
may be started.
The Democrats, too, are having their
worries over prohibition in contemplat-
ing the 1882 prospect, with their lead
ing presidential possibilities divided
widely ON the issue.
Wet Democrats Expected.
However, in spite of the political
aridity OF the Southern States, Repub-
lican prohibitionistS are less hopeful
now Of repeating their 1928 successes
in the South, even though the Demo-
Gratis should select wet nominee. Also
the Republican candidates in New York
and New Jersey this year are cam
paigning for repeal and there is every
indication that the delegations Of these
States to the next convention will carry
with them wet demands.
The Democrats, although specializing
on the 1882 effects of possible victories
this year by such repeal candidates as
Gov. Roosevelt Of New York and Rob-
ert j. Buckley, the party's senatorial
nominee in Ohio, have powerful dry
leaders. Among them are such preSi-
Dental possibilities as Senator Robinson
Of Arkansas and Senator Glass Of Viz
ginia.
The report Of the Law Enforcement
Commission on prohibition Is expected
at the Capitol to precipitate campaign
ing on National scale. The report
will not be drafted until after the cleo
ton. There is no definite indication Of
the lineup of the commission on the
subject, although Washington Is filled
with rumors.
Ponder Hooyer's Stand.
Some Republican drys are wondering
whether the commissions report may
affect the stand of President Hoover,
who in the 1928 campaign declared
against repeal of the prohibition amend
ment.
Meanwhile, Senator Capper, Repub-
lican, Kansas, already has called for a
prohibition battle in 1882, and has as
serted the Republicans will champion
the dry cause.
The prohibitionists are mobilizing, and
the Republicans are mentioning such
party stalwarts as Vice President Curtis
and Senator Tess of Ohio, now national
chairman, as well as Senator Borah Of
Idaho, for leadership.

Papal Claim Still Stands

In 1871 the Italian government
absorbed as part of the territory
of Italy much of the properly over
which the pope of Rome had exer-
cised and claimed jurisdiction and
possession. The Italian govern
ment placed to the credit of the
Vatican sum of money and GER
tain guarantees which have not
been accepted by the Roman auth
critics. 1t is said that the italian
government is anxious to adjust
the matter, but so far the papel
claim has not been diminished,
which is temporal power or juris-
diction over the disputed territory.
