For several days ~there has been a

DECLARE THEY STAND
ON PARTY PLATFORM 4
“Dry” Advocate Asserts
Hundreds Want Prohibi-
tionists Nominated.
Chairman E. L. G. Hohenthal of
the prohibition state committee has
received. he said last evening. an-
swers from all candidates on the
Democratic state ticket except. Mayor
Angelo Paonessa of New Britain. run-
ning for secretary of state. to a quiz
he sent out about ten days ago to
find where they stood on liquor mat-
ters. In the questionnaire he asked
their attitude on ratifying the federal
prohibition amendment by the Legis-
lature and whether they favored en-
forcement of state laws dealing with
the liquor tsi'iic and the enactment of
further lam to bring the state law in
harmony with the Volstead Act.
Summarizes Replies.
Mr. Hohenthai made a summary
of the Democratic answers by saying
candidates wrote that they stood on
the Democratic state platform. They
were for the enforcement of the law.
They were indiflerent about ratifica-
tion of the Eighteenth Amendment by
the Legislature. Connecticut and
Rhode Island are the only states
among forty-eight which have not
ratified the amendment. While it is
not necessary. Mr. Hohenthal says.
to ratify, he thinks ratification de-
nimble.
Mr.
answer .
Hohenthal has received an
from Lieutenant-Governor
Charles A. Templeton. Republican
candidate for governor. Lieutenant—
Governor Templeton replied that he
believed in the enforcement of all
laws. and. when inaugurated. would
take oath to that effect. In regard to
the other question asked by Mr.
Hohenthal. Mr. Templeton replied
that. the Eighteenth Amendment is
now a part of the United States Con-
stitution. although it is generally
known that it was written into-the
Constitution without Connecticut’s ap-
proval. However. since it is now a
part of the fundamental law, Mr.
Templeton said he could see nothing
to be gained by a further agitation of
the ratification question.
“Dry” Nominee “fanned. Hesays.
Mr. Hohenthal said he received
petitions with hundreds of signatures
be made.
of prohibition workers at the Y. n.
C. A.. it was decided not to put a
state ticket in the field. but to pick
among the candidates of the other
parties. Mr. Ilohenthal said that
prohibitionists in the country would
support Edward W. Dewey for sheriff.
