ROOSEVELT DEFINES
REPEAL VOTE DUTY
Tells CIergymen Congress.
men Should Obey Views of
Their Constituents.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, October 8-Rev. DR..
Christian F. Reisner, pastor of the
Broadway Temple Methodist Church,
made public today a letter from Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, which he said
was in response to questions he ad-
dressed to Mr.. Roosevelt on the prohi-
bition issue. DR.. Reisner has been a
supporter of the prohibition law.
One OF the questions DR.. Reisner
asked Gov. Roosevelt was, do YOU
understand that all Democrats. Sena-
tors and Representatives, are bound by
the platform to vote for repeal and the
return OF beer and wine, whatever theiJ
personal convictions or those of their
constituents"
Answers His Question.
The letter from Mr.. Roosevelt which
was dated at Albany September IL,
said:
Il am always glad to hear from you
1 believe that my talks, SO far on the
prohibition plank of the Democratic
Platform outline my views IN the sub
Ject. Regarding the last question, I
might say that Democratic Senator's
and Representatives are duty bound to
vote in accordance with the views Of
their constituents regardless of their
personal opinions
Il would suggest that YOU read my
speech made at Sea Girt, N. j.. on Au-
gust 27, copy Of which 1 am enclosing"
In making the communication pub
lie, DR.. Reisner, who has been i'll for
several weeks, said:
Calls Statement Important.
"a yery kindly letter from Gov RooSe
velt, which came in answer to a series
OF questions about prohibition through
unusual circumstances, has Just come
to hand
"A very important paragraph shows
that the Governor does not expect the
Chicago platform to bind Representa-
tlves and Senators to uniformity for
the repeal Of the eighteenth amend
ment and for wine and beer.
This is very happy omen for the
'drys, since Representatives from dry
States will thus be allowed to represent
their constituencies instead of voting
as directed by the National platform"

"Thereupon he laid him down and
