Washington, Aug. 29.—()—Stress- | ing the-vital need for state and local cooperation in prohibition enforce- ment, Assistant Attorney General Youngquist in a radio address last night said effective enforcement by federal forces, unaided, was an “utter impossibility.” Youngquist formerly was attorney general for the state of Minnesota. _, The number of federal agents—esti- mated at one to every 70,000 people— he described as “pitifiully inadequate” to the task of drying up the country. Reiterating the appeal for state co- operation frequently voiced of late by Attorney General Mitchell, Prohibi- tion Director Hitchcock and Chair- man Wickersham of the law enforce- ment commission, Youngquist said the local authorities in many sections already were giving valuable help. Enforcement, he asserted, was “be- coming more effective’ and would improve in the future. However, he emphasized it was not a matter of enforcing prohibition laws alone, but gions for the conferences, and every county will have been represented when the last meeting is held. Says Local Cooperation in Dry Enforcement Will Help in Crime War taining observance of all criminal | Statutes. “The associations and ramifications of the criminal element generally are such,” Youngquist said, “that prose- cutions and convictions under the prohibition laws tend to prevent the commission and effect the punish- ment of other crimes as well.” Pointing out that every state but five had liquor laws of their own and that many municipalities also had enforcement statutes, the assistant attorney general said local peace of- ficers numbered 175,000, compared to the 175,000 federal agents a—much more adequate force for making the statutes effective. Youngquist stressed the determina- tion of the justice department to have only fit men engaged in the prohibi- tion task. “No mercy will be shown the cor- rupt or unfit agent,” he said. “The Job is more important than the man who happens to fill it.” Last night it was learned also from |Prohibition Director Woodcock that no reduction in expenditures could be that ‘cooperation was needed for ob- t jempected in the enforcement bureau. mare county district court on a charge of robbing the First National Bank of Spring Valley. ‘The decision of the high court end- ed a two year battle for freedom. by Klashtorni, during which he was con- victed twice on a charge of first degree robbery, the second trial being granted by the Supreme Court on an gs een his first conviction. was charged with one of Rex veo iy May 7, 1028 hela up an Spring Vall bank of $15,000.

Carrying the’ case to the Supreme Court, Klashtorni was granted a new trial because of certain evidence used by the state in the first trial. His second trial in June, 1929, also re- sulted in a conviction. This time he was sentenced to a term up to 30 years. A second appeal was carried to the Supreme Court, which by its decision today refused a new trial. ° Couldn’t Or Didn’t | Bite Her Landlady J Chicago, Aug. 29.—(P)—It was im- Possible, Miss Helen Lomax told the court yesterday, that she could have bitten her landlady’s thumb. She had no teeth. ‘That sounded like a good argument, so Judge Harry Porter ordered, “open.” Miss Lomax opened and sure enough, no teeth. The landlady, Mrs. Alverta Stewart, interrupted to say Miss Lomax left her false teeth at home, but Judge Porter ruled that somebody else must have bitten the thumb. However, hr ordered Miss Lomax to leave Mrs Stewart's house for failure to pay het rent. That's what the original argu- ment was over, anyway.
