The United States today was declared by Secretary of State Stimson ‘“ready to approve any practicable plan” for international supervision of Liberia’s administration, but feels such co-op- eration would be futile without “an adequate grant of authority” by the African republic. “The view of this Government in re- spect to Liberia,” Stimson said, “is simply that any officials sent there in behalf of the League of Nations shall have sufficient assurance of support anc authority from both Liberia and the l:uue to make it worth while sending them.” The Government's position was set forth by the Secretary in a telegram last night to Walter White, secretary of the National Association for the Ad- vancement of Colored People, and W. E. B. Du Bols, editor of the Crisis, both of New York City. Held Same as Veto. White and Du Bois contended in a telegram to Stimson yesterday that the State Department attitude “amounts to & veto” of the League plan for nine foreign officials and ¢ League adviser to supervise Liberla. This plan was sug- gested after ah international commis- sion reported conditions of slavery and forced labor existed there. “If the department does not change - |its attitude on a question of vital im- portance to colored voters in the United States, we should not be able to avoid attributing its position to the hostility of the Hoover administration to the Negro race,” White and Du Bois said. “The remedy suggested by the league,’, Stimson. replied, “has been supervision of Liberian administration by non- partisan officials representing the en- lightened nations of the world. We have urged only that these officials be promised in advance sufficient author- ity to make them useful.” White and Dubols said the Staie Department policy would mean “a de- structive occupation similar to that which the United States has carried out in another Negro republic, namely Haiti,” and added thet the same logic “would lead the prcient administra- | Gle tion to embark upon a unilatreal in- tervention in Liberia’s affairs for the protection of the Firestone interests.” Reply Given in Full. Stimson said “the tone interests have no immediate connection with the present problem.” His telegram, as made public here, follows in full: “The view of this Government in re- spect to Liberia is simply that any officials sent there in behalf of the League of Nations shall have sufficient assurance of support and authority from both Liberia and the League to make it worth while sending them. The United States has no desire or plan to intervene in Liberia, but is seeking to co-operate with the other nations of the world in bringing to an end conditions which have shocked the humanitarian sentiments of the whole civilized globe. “In January, 1931, an international commission of inquiry reported that | conditions of slavery and forced labor existed in that country to a shocking extent and that these conditions con- tinued with the knowledge, if not the active participation, of high officials in the Liberian government. It was a dis- tressing revelation for a country found- ed a century ago in the name of human Xree_ld‘ggm. = remedy suggested by the League has been supervision of leeyrhn Id.mf':- istration by non-partisan officials repre- senting the enlightened nations of the world. We have urged only that these officials be promised in advance suffi- clent authority to make them useful. ‘The experience of previous advisers established in Liberia has been that without adequate authority their pres- ence accomplishes nothing whatever. Practicable Plan Wanted. “Our Government is ready to approve nnycPrM:ncabXe plan based on these principles, but in the absence of an adequate grant of authority by Liberia feels that international co-operation would be futile. We have not proposed dictatoriai powers, but we have been reluctant to see an assumption of re- sponsibility by an international com- mission which has not been granted power to meet that responsibility. “The Pirestone interests have no im- mediate connection with the present problem. Their. conduct in Liberia has not been the subject of criticism by any investigating body. The present prob- lem is not one of business interests, but of order and humanity.” Honeymoon Driver Excused. Sentence was suspended on George K.

By the Associated Press. FLORENCE, Ala., September 28.— ‘Through no designs of its own, a rat. tlesnake was hailed by police yesterday as a fellow worker for law and order in the solution of a mysterious robbery. The other night a rural store was ransacked and officers were left with- out a clue for a time. Yesterday, however, - Cleburne Hale was brought to a hospital to be treated for a snake bite and Sheriff Mitchell recalled the country merchant had a hobby of keeping rattlesnakes on dis- play in his showcases. The sheriff arrested the sick man, questioned him at length and hurried forth to arrest Ernest Hale, Blackle O'Neal and Nathan Barfield. He said Cleburne Hale stuck his hand into the rattlers’ showcase as he and his companions robbed the store, and was bitten. e MANCHESTER APARTMENT PURCHASED FOR $136,000 Seven-Story Building on M Street Acquired by McCambridge & Rider at Auction. ‘The Manchester, seven-story apart- ment building at 1426 M street, was bought at public auction yesterday by len W. McCambridge and L. Harry Rider, with a bid carrying a total con- sideration of $136,200. ‘The bid, submitted by Leon Torbriner for the purchasers, was for $31.000 and subject to the balance of the first | trust, amounting to $105,000.

DRY CLEAN-UP STIRS KANSAS CITY Resorts Thrown Into Panic by Raiders—30 Places Caught in Net. By the Associated Press. KANSAS CITY, September 28.—In a concentrated drive against Kansas City liquor dispensing establishments, 86 Federal prohibition agents closed more than 30 in six hours. At exactly 10 o'clock last night—the zero hour—agents working in squads began raiding elite night clubs, chicken dinner farms and resorts in the city and vicinity. The offensive continued today, and those in charge said they expected to have 75 places padlocked by_noon. So fast were operators and employes taken to offices of H. L. Duncan, chief lg:cl.ll agent, Bureau of Prohibition, that no immediate estimate of the number arrested could be ed. Willlam L. Vandeventer, United States district attorney, who two months ago announced a campaign to “clean up Kansas City booze dives,” said the offensive was the greatest un- dertaken here since enactment of Fed- eral prohibition laws. He sald most of those arrested would be charged with sale and Boueuwn of liquor and maintaining a liquor nuisance. Agents Are Strangers. Adding to the rise feature was .the fact that most of the agents were unknown in Kansas City. They had been brought here from Illinois, Kan- sas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nebraska and Iowa. Among those who joined in the raids were Col. George H. Wark, prohibition administrator of Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma, and Thad W. Rowden, deputy administra- tor of Western Missouri. Tactics of the raiding squads varied but little. While one agent handled the doormen or watchers, others rushed in- side. Guests were forced to remain, while employes were rounded up. The names of frequenters were taken. Un- less they were unable to supply creden- tials verifying their names and ad- dresses they were released. Following the raiders were huge mov- ing vans, which were loaded with fur- niture and fixtures and driven to Gov- ernment warehouses. Numerous gam- bling devices were numbered among the articles confiscated. Former Gang Leader Taken. Among: those taken into custody were persons who had had previous experi- ences with Federal agents. One of them ‘was Bobble Carnahan, an alleged for- mer lieutenant of Frank Demayo, once known as the “king of bootleggers” in the Southwest. Places raided included the Scotland Yard Night Club, Oak Tavern, Kit-Kat Club (formesly White House Tavern), Cotton Club, Novelty Club, Hollywood Gardens and the Reel Cafe. At Scotland Yard the cashier was known as the “judge of kangaroo court” and waiters were dressed in stripes. Booths were labeled to represent the cells of various type of criminals, and “trusties” welcomed guests at the door. The Negro orchestra had just struck up “The Prisoner's Song” when the agents | entered.
