were selected by the governor who chose one for and one against repeaTfrom each of the fourteen counties Little Interest Shown Although observers throughout the state report little evidence thus far of strong interest on the part of the voters a lively campaign has been carried on by both sides The state antisaloon league has held meetings in various towns and eitiea and church meetings have been held in many places Earlier in the year Dr Clarence True Wilson spoke before the Vermont Methodist Episcopal conference at St Albans and during the past week Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes of -Washington has been speaking throughout the state under the auspices of the campaign The high spot of the repeal campaign was an address by Postmaster General Farley at a rally in Rutland few days ago conducted

against repeal and regardless of national action on the question the state will continue tinder a prohibition enforcement act passed by the state legislature after adoption of the eighteenth amendment and passage of the Volstead act until further legislation Is enacted The next regular session of thetegislature is not sched-' uled until 1935 At the last session early in the year sale of 32 beer was legalized and a special session in Jqly authorized 32 wine Should the amendment be repealed nothing stronger than the present legal beer and wine could be sold-under the state law One of First Dry States The Green Mountain state was one of the earliest prohibition states Shortly after the War of 1812 the temperance movement was launched in the state and in 1852 the legislature whs deluged with petitions urging a law patterned after the Maine law sponsored by Neal Dow known as the of prohibition" As a result Vermont passed a state prohibition act which was submitted to a referendum of the voters who adopted it 22215 to 21045 The law remained to effect until 1902 when It gave way to a local option or law which continued in operation until the adoption of the eighteenth amendment Since then sentiment has continued strong on both sides stimulated by the activities of rum runners operating across the Canadian border at the north and th8 efforts of prohibition enforcement agencies to

pose Like Cromwell he would bawl out the painter who makes him prettier than he is in the he would order Hu Personality The last conf erence came on an extremely hot day The general strode in without a coat wearing suspenders and with his collar open at the front The little secretary seemed vicariously self-conscious about her very negligee charge But there was no self-consciousness about the general Nor did he excite any among the adequately tailored newspaper men the presence of so much personality as General Johnson has you forget about clothes The general sat down and the questions began to fly He has learned to practice some caution in his answers The complete candor that is natural with him got him in softie trouble did some injustice to him with the public Now on occasion he adopts the device which I think Governor Smith invented and which President Roosevelt habitually practices To an occasional newspaper question he replies answer that but this part of it is off the

common sense and penetrating intelligence and Smith's humor and pungency of language) General Johnson has learned other tricks of caution He knows now how to use his hand holding his cigaret in such a
