An intimate picture of the costs, hopes and difficulties of the Federal prohibition agencies was placed be- fore the House today in a report con- taining testimony given recently by Assistant Secretary Andrews before the House appropriations committee. He appeared to urge additional funds for enforcement, which are pro- vided in the second deficiency appro- priation bill reported today by the committee. Gen. Andrews placed the total cost of prohibition now at $28,500,000, said one of his chief difficulties in en- forcement was handling dry agents, who accept $1,000 a month “to look the other way,” and conceded, under questioning by Chairman Madden, that he was an “optimist. Beer Off Market This Winter. He told Mr. Madden, however, that, although he might be a “ridiculous optimist,” he expected to see “real beer off the market by Christmas,” and when the cl asked if it would be *jus the Winter months,” he replied: “No. T mean off the market.” This colloquy came after the pro hibition chief had estimated that 15 000,000 gallons of industrial alcohol were diverted to bootleg whisky last year, and that, when “cut.” this rep- Yesented at least 30,000,000 gallons of liquor. 5 Industrial alcoho! d sions were confined largely in the “big manufac- turing sections east of the Mississippi and north of the Potomac,” he said, and outlined a plan for increasing the size of the enforcement unit to cope with this diversion. “What do you think will be the effect?” Madden asked. “It will eliminate, first, the source of supply for the illegitimate traffic in liquor, and probably turn the boot- legging industry to illegitimate dis- tillation,” he replied. “Then what will happen?” “Then T am asking for the right to get search warrants on the basis that we have evidence that a private dwelling is being used as a commer- clal dizillery. If we get that law we will make it pretty hard for them to distill their source of supply. If we succeed in turning the industry 1 from that scurce of supply mately. we will get it T basis where every man will make his own whisky in his own home for his own consumption. hen what?” continued Madden. “Then I will have more than dene my work.” Do you think that will be the end of it? Will there be no interference with right to make their own v the Federal Government, | 1 hope.” “You do not mean to say that those who manufacture it at home in viola- tion of the law will have any im- munity?” interposed Representative Buchanan, Democrat, of Texas. “I did not mean that.” replied An- drews. “I mean that the local com- beside a woman in the theater.

The present administration of the Izaak Walton League of America un- |der Charles W. Folds, its president, was assailed as dominated by “com- mercialized motives” and forsaking the original principles and ideals of the league, in a statement today by Will H. Dilg, founder and president of the organization for more than four years. Mr. Dilg challenged a recent state- ment by Mr. Folds, in which he took exception to a statement by Zane Grey, the author, denouncing the methods employed in “‘ousting” Mr. Dilg from the presidency of the league after illness had forced his absence from the national headquarters for more than six months. Declaring the statement by Mr. Grey is “absolutely true,” Mr. Dilg asserted the league is at present “controlled through a cre- ated majority” brought about during his illness. The thing Emerson Hough feared has come {o pass,” said Mr. Dilg. “Mr. Folds and his administration are | not_adhering to the original policies, | principles and ideals of the league— | commercialized motives have come into administration, convention man- dates have been set aside, and a high- | handed bureaucratic government in- |stalled instead of a representative | government, a fundamental policy of | the league. “The league is at present mostly controlled by a group of Chicago bankers and corporation attorneys in- stead of informed conservationists as formerly, and such experts as Zane Grey, James Oliver Curwood and Harold Pulsifer, editor of the Outlook, have resigned from the league's na- tional directory and view with alarm the future of the largest body of sportsmen conservationists the world has_ever known Mr. Dilg challenged Mr. Fold and his administration to call a meeting of the presidents of the various State divisions of the league this Fall to in- vestigate both the Grey charges in connection with Mr. Fold's succession to the presidency and the charges brought against Mr. Dilg, when, he said, he was “too ill to defend him- self.” Unless something is done to remedy the present situation, Mr. Dilg predicted, at least 75 per cent of munities ought to take action in those | 1y empership, representing the lib- cases; not the I"ederal Government.” Agents in Collusion. Gen. Andrews said in “many cases” there was collusion between brewers and prohibition agents, and that he had discharged “a great mahy men” for this reason. t extent is real beer being ked Madden. “No one knows the answer other than this: that over this section of the country (east of the Mississippi and north of the Potomac) there has been beer for sale.” There were wet spots outside of this area, he said, adding that “all thi time there has been beer for sale, more or less openly, if vou know where to get it." “Somebody must know where to get 1t,” Madden observed. So, many of them know that there 18 not much opposition to the law as it forbids the use of beer.” Citing difficulties in detecting manu- facture of “real beer,” Andrews said: “If our men are watching one of these plants in a given community, a policeman will come and say, ‘What are you doing here? making them un- cover them Federal agents in order not to be arrested and taken away because they are hanging around.” = “Do you me: asked Madden. “A regualr municipal policeman, but interested in the success of the com- pany Prohibition _enforcement, he esti- mated, will add approximately $14,500,- 000 to the operating expenses of the Coast Guard durinz the next fiscal vear. Concluding his testimony with the outline of & plan for employing in- vestigators to watch State and coun- ty “officers responsible for law en- forcement,” he said the purpose would be to encourage and “make more pop- ular the proper function of the local law officers.” Sues for Limited Divorce.

The possibilities of getting a deci- sjon on the charges pending before the émpeachment subcommittee of the House judiclary committee against trict Commissioner Fred- erick A. Fenning before another week appeared slight today after the sub- committee had been in executive ses- sion for about two hours and a half. It was indicated, at the conclusion of the meeting, by Representative Dyer of Missourl, chairman of the im- peachment subcommittee, that the full committee would be left with the responsibility of reporting to the House what, if anything, should be done about the Blanton charges. Mr. Dyer said that the subcom- mittee spent the entire morning in going over the evidence in conjurnc- tion with_the charges which were filed by Representative Blanton of Texas. Fach charge was taken up in order and the evidence adduced relating to that charge was discussed in connection with it. He pointed out, however, that no decision was reached aboyt anything in connec- tion with the case. Will Make Detailed Report. He said that the subcommittee would prepare a report for the full committee. This report will take up each charge separately, inform the full committee what evidence there was in support of the charge and note the pages in the printed record where the members of the full committee might find it and study it. If the sub- committee considers that there was no evidence in substantiation of any of the charges, he said, it will so state in its report to the full committee. Mr. Dyer indicated that before the subcommittee meets again each of the members will draw up his opinion along these lines—that is, by taking up each charge and giving an opinion as to the weight of the evidence in connection with each. These indi- vidual drafts will be worked into a composite whole at the next meeting of the subcommittee, the date of which was not determined upon to- day. ‘Will Pass on Law. This subcommittee report, in addi- tion to laying before the full com- mittee the charges and what it con- siders the supporting evident, will contain a statement of what the sub- committee considers the law in the case, which it will substantiate with full citations of ruling decisions which the members believe are applicable to the case which it is considering. In indicating that it will be another week before the subcommittee con- venes again, Mr. Dyer pointed out that this was contingent upon the adjournment of Congress. If it de- velops later in the week that Con- gress will adjourn soon, he said that he would immediately call a meeting of the subcommittee and prepare the report, following it with a request of the chairman of the full committee that it be called into immediate ses- slon for a consideration of jhe Fen- ning case. Mr. Dyer indicated that a report will be given to the House before final adjournment. Then, he said, the House would have an op- portunity to take the matter up as it saw fit and act accordingly. Rankin Urges Action. When the House convened today Representative Rankin, Democrat, of Mississippi, who as a member of the Veterans' committee took an active part in the Fenning hearings, urged that the House must not adjourn without disposing of the Fenning case. He said he would use all the influ- ence that he could muster to prevent such an adjournment. Representative Hersey, Republican, of Maine, a member of the judiciary committee, censured Representative Rankin’s utterances, pointing out that the judiciary committee now has the ! matter before it in executive session and that the members are pledged not to divulge any information con- cerning the forthcoming report until the committee has acted upon it. He said that any speech in the Jouse at this time on the subject is im- proper. ki —— et SRR %. — NS _— Fourteenth Street at New York Avenue A Maker's Lo’s Is Your Gan 3-Piece Suits ' Materially REDUCED!

She retired without din- ner last night, leaving orders not to be disturbed before 10:30. Late in the forenoon her mother had stated that Suzanne was iil and that it was impossible to say whether she would be able to play today. Friends stated that Mile. Lenglen was still very upset and nervous over yesterday's events, and much per- turbed that she had disappointed the Queen. ; They sald sho wept bitterly for a long time after the occurrence. There is no doubt that the French star wus suffering from hay fever. She did not notify the tournament committee of this, however, and when she failed to appear at the courts they did not uess that health might be the cause of her absence. According to some_reports, when Suzanne arrived at Wimbledon the officials remarked rather pointedly upon the fact that her tardiness had kept Queen Mary and the public wait- ing, and Mlle. Lenglen became hys- terical and declared she was ready to scratch from all the matches if the committee liked. Suzanne wrote the following for the Sketch, in which she is daily de- hing the play at Wimbledon: am very sorry I cannot give you account of Wednesd play. 1 at Wimbledon for an hour against the doctor’s advice.

Lenglen and Didi Viasto opposing Miss Mary Browne and Miss Elizabeth Ryan, having doubtless been sharpened by the Lenglen incident. The stands in the center court filled rapidly while the singles were pro- gressing. Mlle. Lenglen arrived short- ly after 2 o'clock. The French star was smiling as she alighted from her motor car and tripped into the cluphouse.

The French team deuced the game score and then broke through Miss Browne's service to take the third, Mile. Lenglen at this point inter- rupted play to get her smelling salts. Her partner then took service and gave the American team considerable trouble with her underhand delivery. Although the game was deuced by the Californians, the French team ain triumphed, only to have its rivals come back to win the fifth on Miss Ryan's serving. With Mlle. Lenglen serving In the th game, play was interrupted by a heavy shower. The shower soon passed over, and with the resumption of play the French team speedily clinched the first set, 6—3. Americans Win Second. The Ryan-Browne combination llied strongly at the start of the second set and spurted into an early lead of 2—0 and then 3-—1. The Californians also captured the fifth game to assume a three-game lead.
