COMMISSIONERS 10 MEET IN DIGKINSON Findings of Law Enforcement Commission Will Be Made~ Public Soon oe 4 HOOVER STUDIES DOCUMENT Word Has Been Given That It Contains No Recommenda- tion for Repeal Washington, Jan. 19.—(?}—The law enforcement commission's prohibition report was submitted to President commission's to congress without delay, possibly Tuesday or Wednesday. At that time it will be available for publication. The sects the commission as a expected to be made known only through publication of the documents themselves, From the commissioners themselves in recent weeks have come assertions that unanimity could not be hoped for.’ Under the plan upon which the re- ‘was drafted the amem- port of} bers have written separate reports ‘or opinions to take care of these divergencies. ‘The task of studying and reporting on all the nation’s laws was put in the hands of the commission and George W. Wickersham, the 72-year- old chairman, exactly 19 months and 23 days ago. Now that. the prohibition report is out of its hands, the commission is to concentrate on other phases of its study. A final report is expected to Hoover hibition report. s ‘His engagement list was held to the very minimum in order that he might devote the entire day to the task. He expects to send it to con- tomorrow noon. No summary of the long document i will be issued.

Assistant pul “did not even dare to talk about.” Official ‘Connection Shown’ Dennis “The Duke” Cooney, opera- tor of the hotel, the prosecutors said, among the documents seized. Panic prevailed in the underworld after the raiders, described as trusted. detectives from the state's attorney's office, surprised the operators of the hotel, and kept it under guard for. more than four hours. Newspaper investigators reported that virtually every speakeasy in the Loop was quickly closed. So. too were gambling houses. Cooney is reported to be in Florida. He is known as “Tite Duke” because he'wears a different suit.each morn- ing, afternoon, and night. In his place the officers found George “Tubby” Miller, whom they arrested, as well as 15 other men and six wom- en, In addition to the records the officers found in the safes about $15,- 000 in currency, revolvers, blackjacks, @ shot gun, and police night sticks. Police Are Questioned While the raiders were in charge, two uniformed policemen and two de- tectives sauntered in, saying they had been under instructions to call at the place every hour to see if there were any violations of the law, but that they had never found any. . “How long,” asked Mueller, “have you been blind?” Miss Bernice Shaw, 34, was under, subpoena to appear before the special geant Jack Herdegen had been a “go- between” for vice operators and Jack Zuta, slain business manager for George Moran’s north side gang.

FRANCE WILL ASK CERTIFICATES FOR IMPORTED WHEAT Decree Results From Rumor That Imported Grain Ex- ceeds 1930 Quotas Paris, Jan. 19.—(7)—The cabinet Monday decided to issue a decree or- dering special certificates for all for- eign wheat entering France. ‘The decree resulted from allega- tions that foreign wheat hes been en- tering France in excess of the offi- cial quotas which last year was fixed at 10 per cent of the total wheat necessary for consumption in France. ‘This year’s quota has not been fixed. Great wheat-producing céuntries, notably the United States, Canada, and the Argentine, are deeply: inter- ested in knowing how much wheat they will be permitted to sell in France. All wheat arriving at French ports must be entered by government agencies before delivery to the con- signee. Another cabinet decree which has been drafted would oblige all persons dealing in wheat to make complete reports to the government concerning the use to which their wheat is put. Nothing was said about price fix- ing although it has been generally ex- Pected that the price would be set at @ jittle less than $2 a bushel. The newspaper, La Information, devoted especially to economic and financial matters, estimated Monday that because the French wheat crop is small this year it will be necessary to import between six and 10 million quintals, or between one and two bil- lion pounds.
