28 DRY PROBE ACTION SE FOR MONDAY Amendments to Pending Res- olutions Will Be Con- sidered. (From Yesterday's 5:30 Edition of The Star.) By the Associated Press. ‘The Senate judiciary committee went over proposals for an investigation of prohibition enforcement today and finally postponed action until Monday so that amendments to pending resolu- tions might be considered. Senator Jones, Republican, Washing- | ton, a dry, and Edge, Republican, of New Jersey, a wet, have written reso- lutions on the subject and both ap- peared before the committee declar- ing that they were in agreement as to the results to be obtained from the in- vestigation. The Edge plan, which is agreeable to Senator Jones, would have Mr. Hoover name a commission of nine citizens of his own choosing, afier he becomes President, empowered to make | “a searching investigation” of enforce- ment conditions. Both the New Jersey Senator and | Senator Jones expressed confidence that Mr. Hoover would appoint men and women to the commission who would make an honest and non- partisian examination of the situation. “I want to see neither extreme drys nor extreme wets on this commission,” Senator Edge said, and Senator Jones added that he appreciated there were differences of opinion on the subject. “I think every one realizes,” Jones declared, “that neither the eighteenth amendment nor its contributory law will ever be repealed, at least for a long time to come. This investigation is intended to show what abuses exist and | how to correct them.” An amendment was offered by Sena- tor Neely, Democrat, West Virginia, that the committee should especially investigate as to whether enforcement of prohibition should be under the Jjurisdiction of “an ex-distiller.” “If we don't adopt this amendment Hoover might put Mellon on the board,” Neely declared. Senator Blaine, Republican, Wiscon- sin, asked Jones why he would have the commission appointed by Hoover. “This amounts to practically an in- dictment of enforcement under the present administration.” Blaine said. “Why not postpone this until after Hoover comes in to see what he, as|= President, wants to do about this noble experiment of his? I know he talked about it in his acceptance speech, but then sometimes campaign speeches are to get votes.” ALEXANDRIA.
