Fort's petition must be filed with the secretary of state at Trenton before midnight tonight. The task of obtaining 1,000 signatures for the document has occupied the representative for the past few days, and jvilh It out of the way, the former secretary of the Ropuh lican national committee will begin his "fight to the last ditch" for the nomin ation. In that fight, without the support of political leaders and organizations which have long since been aligned with Morrow or with former Senator Joseph S. Frellnghuysen, also a wet, he will have the aid of the Anti-Saloon league. The league, however, will function as an independent organization supporting Fort and will not merge It funds and its speakers into whatever machinery Fort may set up.

Hopes to Weaken Wet Sentiment "I will fight for the nomination to the last ditch," Fort has announced, "but regardless of the outcome I am certain my campaign will go a long way toward weakening wet sentiment." The Anti-Saloon league, preparing for state-wide campaign to get out the dry vote, Is seeking legal opinions as to how much money it may spend. Frellnghuysen will begin the week in Monmouth county after a weekend at his Rarltan residence. County leaders spent Saturday with him discussing campaign plans and developments. Both he and Fort will augment their state wide tours by the use of radio. Frellnghuysen Here Today Today Frellnghuysen went into Mon mouth county to address meetings in Asbury Park, Freehold and Long Branch.

Tomorrow night he will attend a banquet of the Republican women of Union county in Elizabeth to which Morrow has been invited. After a tour of Middlesex county on Saturday, the former senator will go to Mercer county and then return to Essex. Indications were that he would not amplify his stand for "national control" of liquor but would confine his address to discussions of public utilities and "bosslsm." Morrow, also, it was believed, had expressed in full his views on prohibition with his demand for repeal of the 18th amendment and return to the individual states of the right to decide the question. The main theme of Fort's speeches, on the other hand, will be prohibition, which he views as the major issue. Outside of the prospect of radio addresses, he has not announced any campaign plans or speaking dates.

Th9 first of the expected defections from his two principal rivals to Fort occurred yesterday when Mayor Joseph V. Van Meter of Collingswood, announced that as a "dry" he had resigned his post of Camden county campaign manager for Frelinghuysen and would support Fort. The Essex county Hebrew Republican league, which several months ago endorsed the action of Jesse Salmon, chairman of the Essex county Republican committee, in supporting Frelinghuysen. formally rescinded Its original action and announced its support of Morrow. Harry A.

Pine, president, announced after a meeting of the executive committee yesterday that a resolution to that effect had been ratified by the committee. Pine Said the concensus was that "Mr. Morrow was the ablest of the three candidates" and "we have no quarrel witn Mr. saimon or Mr. pre, llnghuysen."
