Many Feel Called Assistant Secretary of the Treas- ury Lowman let himself in for something when he invited the drys to tell of any prohibition law violat: they knew about. Of course the invitation was productive f numerous letters telling about Bill Smith’s home brewery in the next block and the foreigner that sells my husband moonshine, gll of which are turned over to district administrators for such action as they deem fit. But it also brought in a flood of new applications for jobs. Prohibition Commissioner Doran, Secretary Mellon, the Anti-Saloon League and senators and congress- men all get such pleas, too.
