M'BR|DE ATTACKS
VETS STAMPEDE
Anti-SaIoon Head Flags At
tempt to Force Dry
States.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS
Anti-prohibition leaders were assailed
today by DR.. F. Scott Mcbride. general
superintendent of the Anti-Saloon
League, for what he termed their efforts
to stampede voters into repeating State
dry laws.
Mcbride charged that estate party
leaders and wet interests now attacking
State prohibition laws are guilty of a
brazen and unjustifiable violation of
the obligation assumed by the national
parties to permit State prohibition
problems to be settled independent OF
the national prohibition issue.
Notwithstanding the assurance &C
cepted in good faith by thousands OF
voters, particularly in the South" he
asserted, party leaders and wet groups
in various States are now trying to
stampede the voters into accepting the
results of election on the question of
national prohibition as an indication
that the States are opposed to State
prohibition.
Assumption "Unjustified."
"The assumption that a State is wet
because a majority in the State voted
for repeal is justified neither by the
facts nor the election figures. Half of
the voters who took part in the presi-
dental election did not vote at all on
the question of national prohibition
repeal Undoubtedly the stay-at-home
vote was the dry vote which would
oppose repeal of State prohibition laws"
Mcbride said: Some voted for re-
peal because of national party pres
sure or out of a sense of loyalty to
the administration, and others be-
cause they were told repeal was neces-
sary for the success of the national
recovery drive"
Pleads for States Rights.
Others expected repeal to lower
taxes, he said, and still others thought
dry States could more effectively in
force their own dry laws
In all fairness" Mcbride said, ma
tional party leaders should make it
clear that each State has a right to
settle the question of State prohibition
independent of the vote on the eight
eenth amendment.
If they continue to permit State
and local party leaders to attack State
prohibition on the basis of national
repeal votes, they will lay themselves
open to the charge of inconsistency,
II not insincerity, and the suspicion
that they are more interested in pro-
noting the liquor traffic than in solv-
ing the liquor problem

into the fashioning of that room.
The statues Of elephants point to the
high regard In which the big beasts
are held in India. It is likely that
elephants were used in hauling away
rock during the period Of cutting. In
addition there are. hundreds OF figures
of gods and goddesses carved upon the
walls; some Of the figures. are. IL feet

The chief honor, however, was for
the great god, silva.
silva is one of the three gods to whom
the Hindus give most worship. The
other two are Brahma and Vishnu.
silva is supposed to stand for that which
destroys and that which builds up again.
He is death. and he is also the new life.
The temples around Ellora are not

forth as examples Of the trouble peo-
pie have taken to honor their gods.
