Belief that Mrs. Cook was slain by a llquor law vio- lator, however, as a result of her dry law activities, has been expressed.

Treasury records disclose that more than 300 attorneys have appeared be- fore the Internal Revenue Bureau and | prohibition unit in connection with va. rious legBl knots under the Volstead s are wondering whether erq will follow the removal of authority from Washington and re- new thelr practice in the more impor- tant centers where prohibition admin- tstrators are located, or will turn to other lines of work. With the new machine built by Mr. Andrews now in operation, little of the administrative work is done here. The 24 administrators have final authority | to dispose of questions in their own Jjurisdictions, and that of course, in- cludes the granting of permits for withdrawal of liquc® and aleohol and the countless other odds and ends over which the Government retains control | through licensing. It has been well known that since prohibition became effective there have been lawyers here who devoted their entire time to unraveling the pages of regulations {ssued under the prohibition laws.
