BV J. C. BASKKRVILL. Raleigh, Nov. 18.—From now on, i more holdups and robberies similar to th<‘ one in Charlotte fhis week in which bandits got from SIOO,OOO to $250,000 in a bold daylight hobbery, are to be expected, in the opinion of Deputy Warden L. G. Whitley of (he prison division of the State Highways and Public Works Commission. From his ten years experience as prison in spector and in dealing with prisoners and criminals of all sorts, he is con vinced that lawlessness is going to increase in Carolina rather than decrease so long as it attempts to en force State prohibition laws, with all the other stages except South Caro lina permitting the sale of liquor. “No* only are bootleggers and rum runners from other states going to come in to North Carolina, but the gangsters, racketeers and bandits are going to come with them, as has already been shown by the mail truck hold-up in Charlotte this week,” Whitley said. “This hold-up is merely a sample of what can be expected from now on. For instead of the little pint and quart bootleggers we have been dealing with for years, we will still have them and the ‘big shots’ that will come in from other states. “The only thing the State is going to gain by retaining or rather attempt ing to retain, State prohibition, is to increase the number of bootleggers and rum runners, thus increasing the prison population and the cost of maintaining them by the S+ate. And if the law were even partially enfor ced, the number of prison camps would have to be doubled in order to hold them.” At the present approximately (Continued on Page Four) PUBLISHED EVERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY. novjSSl That Was Based on Conven. tion Vote, but 184,572 For Candidates VOTES ARE CERTIFIED 120,190 Votes Cast f° r Repeal and 293,484 Against Repeal; 16 Wet Delegates Elected by 14 Counties.

Mr. Roosevelt struck out at. the critics of his monetary plan with these words: “It has been remarked of late by certain Tories that those who are to day in charge of your national gov ernment are guilty of great experi mentation. “I I read n«y-history right, the same suggestion was used when English men protesting in vain against, in tolerable conditions at home, founded new colonies in the American wilder ness, and when Washington and Adams and Bullochs conducted an other great experiment in 1776.” Flags w» re waved and the crowd interrupted with cheers as the "...in dent referred, to Russian li’i'.n and the influence oil peace he d* n m it to be.
