BIuftOn To Haze
Local Option Vote

Buttons local option election is
assured as a part of the November
z balloting, officials of the Allen
county board of elections announced
last week after petitions presented
to them had been certified.
The Bluffton vote is to be for the
purpose of prohibiting the sale of
everything except 3.2 per cent beer.
This would mean a ban on the sale
of wine and beer of more than 3.2
alcoholic content.
Sale of hard liquor has been pro-
hibited here since the 1888 election
when Bluffton's vote was against
the repeal of the state prohibition
amendment and also the eighteenth
amendment to the federal constitu-
tion.
Board officials also announced that
petitions have been filed from
Beaverdam to prohibit sale of liquor
and beer, except the 3.2 brand.
Official action on the proposal is ex-
pected to be taken by the board
this week.
