For the great majority of North Carolina Democrats vote dry. Thus a:l the dry Democrats will be compelled to suppoit Morrison in order to defeat Reynolds, with Grist nil but ground to meal between the two large mill stones. The power companies, McNinch and other inci dents that otherwise would havp figured largely in the campaign will be forced into the background by the question of whether the people of North Carolina want to modify prohibition or want to continue to drink their bootieR liquor in the good old fashioned way. When it comes to whooping it up for prohibition, no one can whoop it up any better than Senator Mdi 1 son, for he is a veteran of the (old tight fdr prohibition that stall ed more than 25 years ago. Not only will Morrison have the support of the "regular" Democrats who stood with him m 1928 wh-n he opposed Simmons so vigorously .but he will al,o be the beneficiary (of the greater part of the Simmons bloc who opposed A1 Smith because Smith was a wet" and a Catholic. For while many of these may ob ject lo Morrison because of his op position to Simmons in 1928 thev will be compelled to support him or else vote for Reynolds, a "wet" nr for Grist. So many will vote for Morrison in order to insure Rey nold's defeat This will also mean that Morrison will also be the bene ficiary of the political influence of the churches of the State,* especially I the Methodist Church Josephus [Daniel?
