OKLAHOMA VETS WERE HAPPY AND
 SOME UNHAPPY
Voted for Beer Yesterday But Gov Murray Calls Troops to Hold Back the Start
BY GEORGE B. ROSCOE

bY GEOhGE b. I1OSCO6 United Press Staff Cofrespondent)
 Oklahoma City, July 12.-(UP) vets to-day hailed the conversion of bone-dry Oklahoma to the ranks of states permitting the sale of 3.2 per cent beer as the most encouraging victory of their war on prohibton.
 The state voted almost two to one to legalize beer at an election yesterday. Previously 1t had been regarded as second only to Kan sas in devotion to the dry cause. The most optimistic vets believed the beer victory signalized a wet victory on the repeal issue before the end of the year.
 Oklahoma is the 35th state to legalize beer.
 Returns from 2,497 of the staet's 3,313 precincts showed 193,538 votes for beer and 110,947 against. Returns were complete for 16 counties and partial for the other 61.
 Thirsty Oklahomans did not know exactly when they would be able to lift their steins. The law adopted yesterday provides legal beer five days after the election re- suits are announced. Many towns, knowing the sentiment of local of- ficials, expected to be wide open" by midnight tonight.
 That hope was blasted, however, by Gov William H. Murray, who called out his much, worked na- tional guard and ordered it to see that beer, now on railroad sidngs in Oklahoma City, stayed there.
 "We're going to collect the tax;;'' the governor said.
 The law provides that each deal CT must take out a $100 license. Estimates indicated 1000 dealers will seek permits. Other taxes make the Oklahoma beer imposts the highest in the union.
