WOMEN LEADERS
 HELP IN FIGHT TO DEFEAT DRYS
Alfred E. Smith Said Their
 Courage and Need for New Revenue Will Win
 ReDeal

New York, Aug 2.-(UP)-The leadership of women in the fight for repeal put prohibition forces on the defensive and this, com- bined with the need for new rev. enue, was responsible for the shift of popular sentiment away from the 18th amendmenft, Alfred E. Smith said in an analysis of the repeal movement in the new Out look today. The former governor predicted repeal "by the time the snow f1ies."
 "When courageous women like Mrs Charles H. Sabin risked public condemnation by attacking the whole theory of the 18th amend ment, the drys, who had had every thing their own way, were put on the defensive" Smiths editorial said. He said another factor con- tributing to the recent large wet votes was the fact that drunkenness did not increase following legaliza- tion of 3.2 beer.

Answers to Many
 Questions Given
(Continued from Page 1.)

Q-Is an employer obliged to retain all present employees, re- gardless of their efficiency?
 A-No, there is nothing in the agreement compelling an employer to retain particular employees, pro- vided the ones he hires are paid at least the minimum wage.
 Q-What would prevent an enn- ployer from discharging persons now receiving more than the min- imum and hiring inexperienced workers at lower pay, thus creat- ing new group of unemployed?
 A-This would be regarded as a violation of the agreement to spread employment and increase wages. There is no provision in the blanket agreement for a report on personnel and wages added, but a questionnaire is to be distributed on this point and those who have made no real contribution to re- employment will be deprived of the blue eagle.
 Q-How do the smaller employ CTS receive the blank agreement forms?
 A-If the forms are not re- ceived through the mail they may be obtained at the local post office.
 Q-Do public utilities come un- der the recovery act so far as the blanket agreement and separate codes of fair competition are con- cerned?
 A-Yes.

 At has been assumed that railroads are not under the MIRA. The NRA has not made specific ruling.

Summer White House
 Made Announcement

260 in July, 1892.
 Total income of the federal gov ernment in July amounted to $163,- 213,571, compared with $87,764,- POT in the corresponding month of last year. A boost in internal revenue collections because of ris- ing beer taxes and manufacturers excise taxes not fully in effect a year ago and general improve ment in business conditions &C., counted for, the sweeping rise in revenues.
 Expenditures of the government for July, meanwhile, fell from $500,729,467 a year ago to $270,- 970,711 this year, partly as a result of drastic economies in wages, pay rolls and operations put into effect by the new administration with the start of the new fiscal year.
 On the basis of the July deficit of $107,0O0,000, this years deficit is not expected to greatly exceed the billion dollar mark compared with deficit last year of nearly $3. 100000. Miscellaneous in- ternal revenue, including beer, tobacco and excise taxes, in July amounted to $113,079,673 against $42,463,659 in July, 1882, the high est level since August, 1922, when repeal of war taxes began.
 Customs receipts, rose to $25,- 0S1,245 in July from $18,876,4S3 a year ago and was at the highest level in 10 months. The rise in customs receipts was attributed to increased foreign trade promoted by business improvement in many parts of the world. Panama Canal tolls, rose to $1,643,006 from $1,- 194,688 @ year ago.
 General expenditures of the gov- ernment, exclusive of emergency exjenditures, amounted to $195,- 617,969 in July, against $350,956,- 731 a year ago. Emergency ex- penditures in July, including pulp lie works, emergency conservation work and federal emergency relief, amounted to $75,352,742, against $149,771,736 for relief purposes through the Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation 8 year ago.
 The July deficit this year was partly financed by the government through an increase in its gross public debt of $71,216,989, bring ing total debts at the end of July to the highest level in Il years at $22,609,888,649.
