AbstainerS

After people had registered their
vote on the prohibition question,
they were asked:
''Do you ever have occasion to
use any alcoholic beverages such
as liquor, wine or beer, or are you
a total abstainer?"
Highlights of results on this
question reveal these facts:
One out of every three (33 per
cent? are total abstainers.
Fifteen people in every one hun
dred Us per cent? say they drink
only wine or beer.
Fifty-one per cent-hve out OF

.Two of Euery Three Voters Oppose
Return To old National Prohibition
Sentiment Has Been Per-
=. y, iodically Tested Since
!. 1886 By Institute
Nv GEORGE GALLUP
Director, American Institute OF
Public Opinion

fi. princeton. N. j., Dec. 15.-Al-
though considerable portion OF
The United States has boted dry
under local option laws since ma.
Ational prohibition was repeaieo
more than 10 years ago, public
sentiment today remains two to one
against any return to nationwide
prohibition.
Sentiment on the question Of ma
tional prohibition has been perlodl-
cally tested since 1886 by the
! American Institute of Public opln-
! ion.
! The question, asked Of a care
! f1llv selected cross-section OF vot-
ers throughout the entire nation:
/, eff the question Of national pro-
. hibition should come up again
would YOU vote wet or dry?"
The replies:
Wet -------...- oI%
Dry ----...---'.~
About five in every one hundred
among those questioned had no op-
inion to offer.
In other words, if nationwide
referendum were to be held today
on the issue, the vote would be ap-
$ proximatefy two to one against a
return to national prohibition.
It will be remembered that IN
1888 the results of the official re-
ferenda showed 30 per cent OF all
voters voting dry, 70 per cent vot-
ing wet.
The table below charts the trend
of public thinking on the question
of national prohibition since 1886,
when the Institute first began test
ing opinion on this issue. Today's|
results show a slight increase IN

Private D. {. Housing
Plan Favored in Study
OF Conference Board
Continued From Page B-1)

private enterprise which shall Build
own and operate the housing ,
= "9. Established relief agencies, pri-
vate builders contend, should pro-
vide rent relief for families unable
to pay the rentals established by this
new agency, just as they would pro-
vide other forms of relief. The costs
of such subsidies would thus be
known to all citizens, including re-
lief recipients"
In presenting an outline of 'The
Washington Plan" proposed by the
Home Builders Association, the re-
port presents a summary from the
private builders viewpoint, in part
as follows:
The intense new interest of pri-
vate builders in low-rent housing
arises from their belief that there
is going to be an active market in
higher-priced homes for sale after
the war, but a successful builder in
this field will soon run into high
income tax brackets and will have
every incentive to invest some of
his capital and time in rental hous-
ing.
Criticisms Outlined.
by dividing Ctheir) efforts and
devoting a portion of (their) time
to this slum clearance job, the sales
market in the higher brackets will
not be supplied so quickly En-
ployment will be spread out over
longer period and the market will
be steadier instead of being glutted
all at once after a few short years
Of boom building, as it was after
the last war;"
This is followed, in keeping with
the impartial plan adopted for the
report, by an outline of criticisms
voiced at the hearings, described,
in part, as follows:
Interest of private builders in
slum clearance and loW-rent hous-
ing will diminish as money and real
estate markets change; rental as
sistance to low-income families by
welfare agencies is socially undeSir-
able; subsidized private housing will
cost the public more than subsidized
public housing.
Rebutta1 on Prices.
I'm place of one direct contribu-
tion by District TAXPAYERS, they (the
HBA) propose two, the first of which
alone would impose a heavier tax
burden than does the present tax
exemption of public housing. These
two proposed contributions would
be, first. capital grants to reduce
development costs; second, rent GER
tificates to assure landlord profits" I"
Under the Washington Plan, the
report recites, housing units could
be supplied by private builders at
S35 a month shelter" rent for a
four-room row house: a three-room
apartment, with heat and utilities,
at $3.50 month"; or four-room
apartment at $3.50.
On this point, the report contains
the rebuttal from the NCHA as
serting that a two-bedroom house
in a plan outlined by the HBA has
shelter rent of $35 q month,
whereas the NCHA project taken
as guide" has an economic rent
of $25.
Costs Increased.

that the comparison used in the
