 Ohio voted dry in 1918. Prohibi- tion's original victory in this state and it's subsequent trimuphs in keeping the state dry were based partly on the fact that Anti-Saloon League headquarters are in Wes- terville, a hamlet near Columbus.

MAYOR BEACH IS GIVEN WARNING
Kidnapers Threaten to Steal Daughter Just as
 He Becomes Mayor

Hartford, Conn, Dec 5.-(UP)- Threatened with Kidnapping, Ann Harrison Beach, nine-year old daughter of J. Watson Beach, who took office as mayor of Hartford to-day, was under a heavy police guard.
 Beach said two telephone calls were received last night from the would-be kidnapers- The first was taken by a maid, as Mayor Beach was out. Later Beach him. self received a call. The voice on the telephone demanded $5,000, threatened to kidnap Miss Ann, and told Beach where to put the money.
 ''It was a very peculiar voice." Beach said to-day. T am sure I would recognize it if I heard it again."
 Beach said he did not talk with the men long.
 "When realized what the man
 was saying I got mad and from then on did the talking" he ex- plained.
 Police placed guard about the Beach home last night, and to-day officers were to watch Miss Ann at school and be with her constantly when she was going between her home and the school building. Meantime detectives sought car carrying a Massachusetts registra- ton, and in which two men were reported riding. They believe this pair were the men who telephoned Beach.

(Continued from Page ID between the British government and De Valera, in which the gov- ernment showed tendency to yield to demands for an Irish re. public, provided certain vital questions can be settled"
 ''Whenever the Irish people have yielded to British rule in any form, DeValera wrote, "they did so only under the pressure of over whelming material force."
 In reply to this, Thomas told the house that "the government cannot believe the Free State gov ernment contemplates a final repu- diation of its treaty obligations in the manner suggested, and there fore does not feel called upon to say what attitude it would adopt in circumstances purely hypothetical.
 Creation of Free State domin- ion status, DeValera'S letter said, involved "a fundamental change in attitude. The experience of the last 12 years has made abundantly plain that lasting friendship is not atainable on the basis of the pres ent relationship"
 The note continued that the Free State government inferred from Thomas's statement on November IA, that Great Britain 'now re- alizes the evils of forced associa- tion. and had decided not to treat as a cause of war. or any other az gressive action, the decision of the Irish people to sever their connec- tion with the commonwealth"
 He concluded by asking the Brit ish government to formulate it's at titude in an unequivocal state- ment.
 Thomas began his reply to the message by saying that the govern ment was unable to accept the assumption that last friendship was not attainable under the basis of the present relationship" and added that "the British govern ment sees no grounds for answer ing question founded on that as- sumption"
 Thomas's use of the words "within the commonwealth" were regarded as meaning that the gov ernment is unwilling to permit the Free State to form a wholly inde- pendent republic, although it's att titude had been regarded as soft ening towards DeValera's aspira- tions.

(Continued from Page 1.) Fairfield county and possibly New Haven might have had legal liquor today, but with the formal ratifica- ton postponed until o'clock there Is no chance for liquor to be poured legally until tomorrow.
 Under the state liquor law there iS but one outlet for liquor-the package stores. And they must close at 6 o'clock.
 In an effort to speed up delive- sent their trucks to New York and Boston warehouses and distilleries, and heavy flow of good whiskey will be underway into the state throughout the night. Sufficient supplies will be on hand Wednes- day morning.
 In addition to the delay in ob- taining liquor considerable confu- sion and disappointment over the liquor law exists. Drug store own CTS in particular are upset, for they have been unable to get clear cut decision on their rights under the law.
 The attorney general has given 9 ruling that they must obtain liquor ermits, and the liquor commission insists they will give them only package store licenses, under which sales are restricted to not less than one quart.
 A test case was expected to get underway in the court today. but when the commission met late yes- terday 1t did not take up the ap- T. rlication of the Stoughton Drug company, Hartford. for a liquor permit. Had it done so and re- fused the permit attorneys for the druggists planned to bring man. damus proceedings in court today.
 Hotel and restaurant owners also are demanding a new deaP so they may handle liquor. At present only beer and wine may be served in restaurants and hotels, and the permits if they even permit guests. to drink liquor in their public rooms.
 The retail beer, wine and liquor merchants association also has its fears of the future. With sale of spirits restricted to package stores the members see the speakeasy owners Yeaping golden harvest, catering to the trade that desires but a highball and not a quart.
 Many package stores, which arg handling beer, are not yet prepared to stock whiskey. The big chain store organizations are among those which have not determined their policy on liquor.
 Brewers of the state seem well satisfied with the present setup. They have been making beer of from to z per cent strength for months, and have millions of gal Ions ready to replace the 3.2 brew which has been on sale since last spring.

New Gilmartin Book
 Is Published To-day
Vocabulary Building and Pronunciation" Offers Aid
 in Augmenting Word Supplies

The latest work of John c. Gil- martin, vocabulary Building and Pronunciation" Book Four, ap- peared today in its complete form. The manifest aim of this book. ac- cor1ing to it's author, is to cultivate taste for vocabulary building which will eventually produce for the student a much augmented supply of words and to strengthen his pronunciation of many common words which have been and are being frequently mispronouneed by persons of every rank.
 An examination of the book re- veals the fact that it calls for &C., 'tivity and not mere reading on the part of the class. Lessons of a di- versified nature are formed in it. This diversity will stimulate the desired interest in the class which would be difficult were all lessons presented in the same, montonous way.
 The work is adapted for pupils in junior high schools and senior high schools throughout the coun- try. It is the intention of the au- thor to have eventually a series of books on this all-important sub ject which will be suitable to all the needs and within the grasp of pupils and students from the fifth grade through high school and col lege. At present his work in vo- cabulary building and practical English is used in many colleges in this country.

Ready To Assign 100
 Men Daily On CWA
Arthur J. MalOney to Inform William M. Harris of Plan
 T0-day-City's Quota May Be Filled Soon

Arthur J. Maloney, director of the local office of the state em- ployment bureau which Is working in cooperation with the national unemployment service, to-day planned to notify William M. Har- ris, administrator of the CWA, that his office was ready to assign 100 men a day to work on federal pro- jects. If projects and equipment can be remedied soon enough and the proposal can be accepted by Mir Harris, 1t is hoped to have at least several hundred men added to the CWA payroll within the next week.
 The right to call for stipulated numbers of men rests with Mir Harris in his capacity as adminis- trator and with the employment bureau ready to send hundreds on demand, 1t is believed that he will endeavor to fill the city's remain ing quota as soon as possible.
 This morning the administrator asked for 50 more men in addition to the 50 requisitioned yesterday. With these 100 jobs given out to ex-servicemen there will still be 60 or 70 veterans to be given pref erence in early calls for workers.
 With LIDO men on the CWA payroll by means of transfer from Mutual Aid and city welfare lists, about the same number Of self sustaining unemployed are expect ed to get federal employment by the 18th.
 All applications filed for CWA work have been filed and cross indexed, and MT Maloney an- to-day that further reSis- tration would begin Thursday at the armory.
 Despite the fact that the Mutual Aid lists were almost depleted two weeks ago with the transfer of workers to the CWA, figures quoted at yesterdays meeting of the Mu- tual Aid committee showed that 317 are now on the list. Practi- cally all are those who have been laid off at local factories. From present indications, 1t appears that a score or more will be added to the lists each day.

CITIZENS STOP
 LONG ELECTION
Closed Up All Polling Places and Prevented
 Any Ballot Casting

Hammond, La, Dec 5.-(UP)- Mobilized citizens, some passively resistent, others using force, de- feated Senator Huey P. Longs po- litical administration and prevent ed the opening of the polls for a federal election to-day in Louisi- ana's sixth congressional district.
 The citizens, claiming that Sena- tor Long's regime 'hand picked'' a ballot listing only Mrs Bolivar D. Kemp as candidate for con- gress to succeed her late husband, refused to vote.
 Flying squadrons of armed citi- zen-deputies were out before a. m. in this section, bent on clos ing all polling places that they found.
 So effective was the revolt that at a. m. Judge Lee Ponder, the Long lieutenant in the parishes of Tangipahoa, St Helena and Living ston, announced that the election was officially called off in each of those parishes.
 We don't agree with this ad- verse court order, but because we are law-abiding citizens, we wiK abide by it," he said.
