WASHINGTON, Oct 2. (By Francis M. Stephenson, Associlted Press CorrespondcnO-W i [ h tl.2 Prohibition question per sting in bobbing up daily in poi45ics this year, the National leaders of bota major parties are wondering whoth- CT or not this issue will be drawn into the 1882 Presidential cam paign. The political leaders are wondering if either of the two Ma tional parties will adopt a wet plank two years hence for the first time since the adoption of the Eighteenth Amendment or whether or not either or them will nominate a wet candidate.
 President Hoover supported the Eighteenth Amendment in the last campaign. Gov Alfred E. Smith ran as wet, but his platform was not wet. Hoover in effect has de- clared against the repeal of Pro- hibition, and in effect against mod ification in this campaign.
 The Presidents utterances are regarded as putting his party in the dry column Nationally. but the ranks C both parties are divided on the issue.
