Wheeler, national counsel for the Anti-Saloon league of America, aaid here tonight. Claiming that the wets have shown they want the whole of their liquor back again—"not merely beer and wines'*—Mr. Wheeler, said that the re pea) of the New York state act was the "first frank confession of their plan" and that war waa on with the assemblymen who voted wet. "We will call in aU the federal of ficials possible, and in the meantime canvaas every city and district in which a wet legislator rssidss. and sim at his defeat." said Mr. Wheeler. "With a new dry legislature in office, the enforcement code will go back on the books." "We dont think the New York re verse is so nstionally important at the wets should indicate," he declared "We fought battles Uke that in mi nd won them all. We would have won in New York If it had not been for political maneuver ing." • Mr. Wheeler declared the New York action "plaoss the prohibition ques tion in the fovfront of the most im portant issues of the Presidential campaign. It focuses the mind of America upon the right of the ma jority of the people to legislate for the nation." Rom, June ,li—Mount Dm Hi violent «"option b laying waste to petchai ranching Uio mainland.
