By the Associated Press. Under the authority of President Hoo- ver's Law Enforcement Commission, two prominent legal éxperts will con- | duct a survey of lawlessness among Government officlals charged with en- forcing prohibition and other Federal statutes. Prof, Zechariah Chafee of the Har- | vard Law School and Walter N. Pol- lak of New York City, who served as a special Assistant Attorney General in | the prosecution of Nicky Arnstein, have been delegated by the commission to take over this phase of its work. Details Are Withheld. Announcing these appointments, the commission, which is holding a ses- sion of several days at its headquar- ters here, withheld public information as to the details of the activities for which Chafee and Pollak were ap- pointed, but its announcement was re- garded as evidence of a decision to face this problem squarely and give it ade- quate consideration as an important part of its general task. 3 Although the inquiry given over to the two experts is not restricted to prohibition, but includes lawlessness in the enforcement of all Federal statutes, it was considered a foregone conclusion that they would devote most of their time to the field of the Volstead law. Coast Guard and border patrols are expected to undergo a careful scrutiny, the purpose of which will be the de- termination of the extent of lawless- ness among these agencies. Start to Work at Once. That Pollak and Chafee intend to begin their work at the earliest pos- sible time was indicated by an an- nouncement that the former left New York last night to confer with his col- league at Cambridge, Mass. Prof. E fee is a graduate of Brown University. He has devoted a great deal of his time to lectures and to writing books of a legal nature, in- cluding one on free speech. In 1923 he was chairmi f & committee created at the instancé of the Fedef™ Coal Commission to make a survey of civil | liberties in coal mining areas. Pollak's activities have kept him in close contact with the courts and with questions related to the inquiry he and Chafee are to make. In addition to acting as special counsel in the Arn- stein prosecution, he was counsel to the Moreland act commissioner in New York. in the recent investigation of un- lawful practices in the State banking department.

They are both Republican citfes, and both politically clean and wholesome and law-abiding, and it was a great ad for justice and clean living that two such upstand- ing, righteous cities should compete in our greatest sporting event, and it should be an example to these corrupt hoodlum towns for them to turn over & new leaf and try and be upright and a credit to their inhabit- ants, and maybe they would win a pennant once im a while.

MORE DELAY SEEN - FOR TARIFF VOTE Censideration of Farm Board Confirmation Stands in Way of Taking Poll. By the Associated Press. The manifold obstacles to completion of a tariff bill during the special ses- sion were augmented today by a de- mand for the consideration of Presi- dent Hoover’s nominees to the Federal Farm Board. : Beyond one day or possibly several to be devoted to this latest factor, loomed the disposition of an export debenture rider. After that remained the balance of individual amendments before rate schedules could be reached. With the abandonment of conferences of leaders on means of expediting tariff consideration, it was considered virtu- ally certain, with these other items incident to further delay, that the bill would go into the regular session. Chairman Smoot of the finance com- mittee has indicated he would ask night sessions as a last expedient. Opposition In Prospect. As the Senate turned to corisideration of nominees to the Federal Barm Board, with opposition to some expected, prospects were not only that the bill would be & long time on the Senate floor, but that many weeks in confer- ence would be necessary if an attempt is made by Senate and House conferees to reinsert the flexible tariff provision which President Hoover desires and the House continued in the bill. Senator Norris, Nebraska, a Repub- lican independent leader, has announced his intention of proposing export debenture rider before consideration of rate schedules. Earlier, Senator Thomas, Democrat, Oklahoma, said he would move to recommit with instructions to limit revision to farm schedules. ‘While the concensus was that nefther mlt’ul{hwuld muém a necesug ma- y, the respective proponents were determined that the Senate should go on g More Delay Seen. ‘With talk also of & move by members of the Democratic-Republican inde- pendent coalition to seek consideration of the agricultural schedule first, which under ordinary procedure would be con« other schedules had been disposed of, prospects for early dis- position were further dimmed. Republican leaders ghave indicated that this latest suggestion would be countered as in conflict with the unani- mous consent agreement that schedules ll’g to be considered in their numerical order. It has been suggested that Republican leaders might move to defer action on the entire tariff question until after the biennial elections next Fall in the event that consideration should continue far into the regular session. Rumors have circulated, too, that the President would veto a bill without the flexible plan, but nothing to substan- tiate or deny them has been forthcom- ing from the White House. Benefit Plans Arranged. Special Dispatch to The Star. CLARENDON, Va., October 16.—The special committee of the Arlin County Civic Federation appoint to arrange for a card party for benefit of the organization met here last night, deciding to hola the affair in Commu- nity Hall of Lyon Park the evening of October 28.

By the Assoclated Press. . Many of the House members who have walted patlently here for the Senate to enact a tariff bill have mrs them before 8] session and are packing their bags for a rest av home prior to the open! of the rej ular session early mMDl:c'@Mr & meet, without transacting any busi- ness, every three days until November 11, when it is expected that a decision will be reached on the course to be pursued before the December session. Héwever, in the opinion of most of the hundred of the 435 members who are now in town, the resolution adoptea Monday to postpone all business until November 11 was equivalent to an agreement to exd the special session then, so far as the House is concernea, it Senate has not passed the bill by that date. Time Is Lacking. Speaker Longworth points out that even should the Senate approve the measure by that time, Senate and House conferees would not have suffi- cient time before the end of the spe- cial session to compose the many differ- ences between the House bill passed last®Spring and the Senate measure. Representative Tilson of Connecticut, the Republican floor leader, places most of the glume for the apparent failure of Congl;ess to carry out fully the program of tl a‘%ecl.ll session on the activities of Republican insurgents and Demo; crats in the Senate. Members have been informed by Til- son that there is no legislative business for the House during the remainder of the special session other than the :.nhegnler ibility of again considering Committees Held Up. He also has said that no agreement has been reached as to the organization of House committees at the end of the special session. This has ‘been particu- larly aging to members who de- sired to%get bills before committees so that action on them might be expected during the December session. Representative Garner of Texas, the Democratic leader, believes that there might be a slight possibility of enacting the tariff measure within a reasonable time if President Hoover would with- draw his demand for the fiexible pro- vision. ‘The President of Germany is elected by direct vote of the people for a term of seven years.

CAMPS FOR FAMILIES ARE HELD NEED HERE Bepprtjto Social Agencies Shows | Facilities in District Should Be_ Enlarged. Washington'’s lack of adequate Sum- mer campl facilities for eatire families was stressed by Miss Bertha Howell of | St. Louls, in a report on camping and recreation submitted to the Council of Social Agencies at its first Fall meeting at the Y. W. C. A. yesterday. ‘While Miss Howell was high in her praise for the camps for children and mothers, and also pay camps conducted ymzr the auspices of the Y. W. C. A, . M. C. A. and Boy Scouts, she said there was a great need for {mm where families could go as an entity and en- joy an outing. She also found a lack of facilities for colored people. | Miss Howell's report was indorsed by | Thomas S. Settle, former official of the | Playground and Recreation Association p of America, who added that there also existed a lack of facilities for working mothers who could afford %o send chil- | dren to a part-pay camp during the Summer months, but who cannot afford a full-pay camp for their children. The Council of Social Agencies ex- pects to take steps toward the stand- ardization of camps in this district and provide for the lack of facilities as a ! result of Miss Howell's report.
