DRYS' SPLIT ON
HOOVER'S STAND
CROWS WIDER
Allied Forces Will Support
President; Anti Saloon
Chief RapS Him.
By United Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15-The
split in the dry ranks over President
Hoover's prohibition pronouncement
in his acceptance speech, was Wild
ened when DR.. Daniel A. Polling,
chairman of the allied forces for
prohibition, announced that the Or
CARNATIONS executive committee
had voted to support Mr.. Hoover for
reelection.
The allied forces are composed of
more than 100000 affiliated prohi-
bitionistS.
Announcement of the result of a
hasty poll of the 205 members of the
committee came after prohibition
ranks had been broken by refusal Of
some nationally known dry leaders
to support the President in view of
his acceptance speech statement
that the eighteenth amendment
should be changed.
Some Criticise Hoover
In addition to w. c. T. U. leaders,
F. Scott Mcbride, general super
intendent of the Anti-Saloon
League, and D. Leigh Colvin, ma
tional chairman of the Prohibition
party, have been among those to
criticise the Presidents new attn
tude toward the eighteenth amend
ment.
Polling said 1877 of the 205 commit
tee members voted that the allied
forces should support Mr.. Hoover.
He declared the Endorsement was
based on the belief that, in con-
trast with Governor Roosevelt, his
election will safeguard the gains
made under prohibition"
Naked repeal and return of the
saloon system" would be prevented
by retention of President Hoover in
the White House, Polling said the
committee decided.
Seek Dry Congressman
At the same time he said the al
lied forces intended to aggressively
campaign for election of congress
sional drys regardless of party affili-
ations.
Poling's announcement followed
that of Edwin c. Dinwiddie, execu-
tive secretary of the National Pro-
hibition Board of Strategy, who de-
clared he would support Mr.. Hoover.
He gave the same reasons as those
offered by Polling.

In explaining this, George w

the curative powers of their
natural mineral waters for in
testinaI disorders and troubles
arising from excessive acidity.
The same has been true regard
ing good many of our own
people who have visited Europe
at enormous expense in order
to receive the benfit of those
waters,
"This great expense has been
quite unnecessary, however, for
the reason that we have here
at home a natural mineral
water that has few if any
equals, and certainly no supe-
riOrs anywhere in the world.
Recognized authorities in the
American medical profession
have asserted that CapOn Min

in effect and quicker in action
than either the Carlsbad water
Of Germany or the Vichy of
France, the two outstanding
mineral waters Of Europe"
Capon Mineral Water is clear

peculiar to women are well
