The next Congress will he far inertLiberal than the existing one. The representation of the so-called Fanners’ Bloc has received a great increase ot strength. The new Congress will contain only one v.wman Mrs Winifred Mason ILik. from Illinois. Generally speaking. the women voted as their husbands did. Tho association against Prohibition claims 185 seats in the next Congress. It requires, according to its own estiniii.tes. 33 more for a majority in favour of a mollification of the presentt Volstead Act.' California and Alassachusetts as well as Illinois showed decided hostility towards the Volstead Act. It looks as though in those Ist a tits as well as in New York, now that Mr Alfred Smith t Democrat) Inis been elected Governor the duty of enforcing Prohibition will devolve'on Federal officers, with the local police acting the part of disinterest-.! observers.
