Slack Stands For Bill To Kill Prohibition In Indiana
Representative Condo, a Republican, led opposition to county option while supporting state wide prohibition. Senator Slack, a Democrat, spoke for statewide prohibition but failed to rally county option supporters. The senate judiciary committee favored indefinite postponement and the minority report suggested court review. The final tally against the minority report was 34 to 12 with Senator Strange crossing party lines to back submission to voters.

Lack Jibes At Republicans Cause Mirth In Debate
Senator L Ert Slack leads Democratic jibe at Republicans over a state wide prohibition amendment. Slack and Stotsenberg propose referring the matter to Attorney General James Bingham for a speedy opinion, prompting laughter due to Bingham's known liberal temperance views. Republicans retort that Bingham is on the stump, not available for early advice, as Slack deflects claims of taking orders from governor candidate Thomas R. Marshall.
