COLLEGE RESEARCH MY SOLVE LU Head of Advisory Council Ex- pects Students to Make Showing. Th2 Andings of the student body of | ®hus country on the liquor situation are expected to be more conclusive than those of the Wickersham commission, in the view of Dr. Emory R. Johnson of the University of Pennsylvania, who is at the head of this new incursion into the controversial realm of pro- ‘hibition. Associated with Dr. Johnson are eight other distinguished educators, one | & woman, constituting the “Prohibition | Advisory Research Council” named two weeks ago by Prohibition Director Woodcock to devise a program of re- search for college graduates in seek- ing their masters’ and doctors’ degr They wound up their studies here last night.

Attorney General Mitchell told news- paper men after his conference with the group that he was assured they were unbiased in their attitude on prohibi- tion, and that no interference would | be made by Government officials in | their work. “I made no suggestions to them,” the Attorney General said. “On the con- trary, I told them their work was not subject to any control or suggestion by me or by the Prohibition Bureau. “In fact, their program for research would be useless unless it was worked out in perfect independence.
