STATEWIDE POLL
UNDERTAKEN ON
LIQUOR ISSUES

the November ballot. These have
been designated as Propositions No.
3 and No. 9.
The so-called local option measure .
—Proposition No. 9—shattered all

SINGLE TAXON
LAND SIMILAR
TO SOVIET ACT
SACRAMENTO, Aug. 17.—Drawing a sharp parallel between the tenets of “Single Tax’’ (Land Tax) advocates, and the decree of the Soviet
Republic, confiscating private property, John R. Quinn, chairman of the
State Veterans’ Welfare Board, today denounced the “Single Tax” Alct
on the November ballot—Proposition Number 1—as “‘a deliberate attive of aroused public opinion on the

counties in the state have been certified. This was nearly 15,000 more
names than the 186,378 required to
place an initiative measure on the
ballot.
In a statewide campaign caucus
of local option leadérs at Atascadero
last Wedtiesday, sponsors of the lo€al option law stressed the fact that,
in a strict sense, the proposition is
“neither wet nor dry”, but is simply an enabling act, which will give
individual cities, towns or counties
the power to ‘‘regulate, zone or prohibit the sale of alcoholic beverages’, thus breaking the monopoly now
held by the board of equalization.
Campaign lines were forming this
week as the army of volunteer workers received their instructions to
carry the house-to-house poll into
every precinct in the state. Results
of this canvass will be carefully analyzed and compared with: previous

“Such a proposal is in direct viofation of the fundamental American
principle which guarantees the right

Establishing the parellel: between
“Single Tax,” theories and Communistict doctrines, insofar as property
rights are concerned, Quinn quoted
the principles and purposes of both
groups, as follows:

start
Connersville, Ind.—The gravity of
the present situation confronting
the American people was pointed
out here by Colonel Frank Knox,
Republican nominee for Vice-President, in the first major speech of
the campaign following his acceptance address in Chicago.
“The issues we discuss are
grave,’’ Colonel Knox said. ‘The
American people have not faced
since the Civil War an election with
more at stake. We are confronted
with problems that go to the very
roots of the American economic
system.’’
In continuing to stress the ‘“‘crusade,’’ Colonel Knox attacked the
New Deal party with the assertion:
‘Whatever the government has
been doing about recovery has. been
wrong. It has not helped recovery.
It has blocked recovery. The Administration has proceeded on the
theory that the business man and
the farmer must bé told how to
run their businesses by some planner in Washington.’’
Vandenberg Urges
Fight for Liberty
Chicago. — Declaring that the
American flag ‘‘is not yet red nor
even pink,’’ Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan told the Union
League Club in an address here
that ‘‘it still is the personification of
‘the Constitution; it still is the banner of a free peopie who propose to
vote themselves a new emancipation’”’ in November.
Asserting that the American people must ‘‘fight for their liberty,”’
Senator Vandenberg charged that
the New Deal administration is
sponsoring, through Secretary Henry Wallace, an ‘unwritten constitution.’ “If you do not want this
‘unwritten constitution’ this may be
your last opportunity to say so,’’
warned Senator Vandenberg.
