ARIZONA DRY VOTE
DUE TOMORROW
Overwhelming Victory for Re-
peal Conceded by Pro.
hibition Forces.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHOENIX, August 7.-Arizona voters
will decide tomorrow whether this State
Is to become the twenty-f1rst IN the
Union to / sanction repeal OF tne
eighteenth amendment.
Having lost, five days before the date
of election, court battle to restrain
the casting of ballots, anti-repeal forces
conceded that the popular vote OF the
State likely would be overwhelm1ngly
in favor of ratification.
In contest at the polls dry" forces
are confronted not only with record
of a 2-to-1 vote by which the State
prohibition enforcement laws were re-
pealed last November, but with the TACT
that theirs must be write-in cam
paign for convention delegates
Under an enactment of recent Spe-
cial session of the Eleventh Arizona
Legislature, IA delegates from each
county-were to be nominated by coun-
ties and elected by vote Of the State
at large en- bloc.
No anti-repeal candidate was nomi-
mated in any county. Omcial. ballots
started on their way to polling places
as soon as the smoke Of an Injunction
battle had cleared, contained the names
Of IA delegates only, all pledged to re-
peal. Blank spaces are there, however
for the use of voters desiring to write
in dry" names.
In nine counties no candidates ap-
peared to contest for seats at the con-
vention. In five others candidates did
circulate petitions. but in no case were
they able to obtain sufficient signatures
to certify their names to the ballot.
The court fight to prevent a popular
vote on repeal started shortly after the
regular session Of the Legislature had
enacted a statute setting up machinery
for an election.

BOSTON, August THE Boston g.
Maine Airways, Inc, the aviation sub
sidiary of the Boston e. Maine and

points on next Friday officials Of the
road has been announced.
The service first was established in
1881 and was the first airline to be
operated by a railroad. 1t was discon-
tinued last year, but railroad officials
said tonight the demand has caused
them to resume 1t on q permanent
basis.
President E. S. French of the Bos-
ton & Maine tonight said, I'VE have
no thought that this or any other air.
plane service will surplant mass rail-
road passenger service. There Is, how
ever, we feel, a considerable field for
the faster service which the airplane
is able to give. The railroad. we
believe. is the logical medium which
should provide all forms Of transpor-
tation."
