Bowman, head of the coalition of Prohibition forces in Utah, at midnight con- ceded that Utah had joined the ranks of repeal states. (Utah is the 36th wet state, and so repeals prohibition). (By Associated Press) Ohio and Pennsylvania stepped firmly into the wet ranks last night in a sweep of ballots that piled up a heavy repeal lead in Utah and left North and South Carolina clinging to the Prohibition standard.

Ohio heaped up a 60,000 majority for repeal and in Pennsylvania the margin was 6-to-1. North Carolina decisively iejected the repeal amendment, the voters placing the state on record as the first in the Union to break away from the wet march. The dry ration was better than 2-to-1. In South Carolina, the issue was more closely contested, but repeal forces conceded victor.y to, Prohibitionists on the face of a 2,- 000-vote lead with the missing pre- cincts confined principally to dry rural sections.
