TREASURY STARTS LIQUOR TAX DRIVE 185 Are Added to Force to Tighten Alcohol Levy Collection. By the Associated Press. The Treasury Department has auietly | started a new drive to tighten up en- | forcement of liquor laws and increase | alcohol tax collections during the 1937 | fiscal vear just started. Internal revenue officialsdisclosedlast | night that to draw the tax net tighter | around bootleggers, moonshiners and | other tax evaders and law violators, 185 additional investigators, inspectors | and storekeeper gagers have been added to the present force of 4000 men. | More officers will be enlisted, offi- cials said. until the Internal Revenue | Bureau has 260 new inspectors, 125 | storekeeper gagers and 100 investi- gators, making a total enforcement | staff of 4,500 men. 25 in New York District. The New York district, which was understaffed, was assigned 25 of the| 80 new investigators. The others, plus | 34 inspectors, were scattered through- | out the 15 revenue districts of the country The investigators will run down bootleggers and manufacturers of | illicit liquor. They also must check | all industrial alcohol production which | might be diverted into illegal channels | and check retail stores to make sure bottles have proper revenue stamps. The 71 new storekeeper gagers have been assigned chiefly to Kentucky. Illinois, Indiana and other whisky-| producing regions, Where they check the production of all spirits manufac- tured for tax purposes. Officials said | that in the past only one gager has been assigned to many distilleries where two or three should be on duty. The Internal Revenue Bureau hasi approximately 267 distilleries, 175 | bonded warehouses, 800 wineries. 400 rectifying plants, 4.300 manufacturers | and dealers in industrial alcohol, and 6,000 hospitals and laboratories that use alcohol, under its jurisdiction. Danger of Over-supply. The view was expressed in one quar- ter that there was imminent danger of an over-supply of legal liquor. In a post-session issue of the Con- gressional Record, Representative Cel- | ler, Democrat, of New York, said that at the time of repeal two and a half years ago distillers considered their major problem one of accumulating sufficient stocks of whisky in Govern- | ment bonded warehouses to permit aging in pre-war proportions. But, he said, Treasury reports show | that at the close of May, 1936, there ‘were 281,000,000 gallons in bonded ‘warehous compared with approxi- mately 250,000,000 before the World | War, with reduction approximating | 22,000,000 gallons a month. Only 25 to 33 per cent of the production is withdrawn, he said Celler urged future planning by the industry, with a view to curtailing pro- duction or finding other control measures. WILL PREéENT PLAY “Smilin’ Through to Be Offered by Blackfriars’ Guild. “Smilin’ Through,” a play in three acts, will be presented by the Black- friars’ Guild at 7:30 o'clock tonight on the Catholic University campus. » The first outdoor dramatic presenta- tion at the university, the play will be given on the lawn between McMahon and Gibbons Halls.

This is the second in a series of siz articles on dust storms and floods. BY CHARLES NORMAN, Associated Press Staff Writer. UST storms concern the farmer | whose land blows, the mer- | chant and banker and manu< facturer who depend on the farmer’s income, the housewives who scrub unceasingy, the less sturdy whose lungs are affected, the stock- men whose animals perish in the storm or starve because the pastures are dust-covered. Dust storms originating in the Mid- west have blown in black or yellow clouds as far east as the Atlantic| Coast. The problem is graiest in an area of the Southwest called the “dust bowl” Included in that area are southeastern Colorado, North- eastern New Mexico, Western Kansas, western Oklahoma and northwestern ‘Texas. In the Midwest they know from the color of the dust where it comes from—red from Oklahoma and Texas, sandy from Kansas, black from the Dakotas. Spring is the season of worst dust storms.

STAR, WASHINGTON, ANTI-STRIKE LAW EFFECT DOUBTED May Not Cover Striking Me- chanics’ Complaint, Cummings Says. Charges that local automobile con- cerns are violating the new Federal “anti-strike-breaking” act by advertis- ing outside the District for mechanics prompted Attorney General Cummings to express doubt today that the law covers such advertising. Questioned at his press conference, Cummings said that while he had re- ceived no formal complaints in con- nection with the mechanics’ strike here, he had noted public reports in- dicating the Central Labor Union will ask the Justice Department to make an investigation of the “help want advertisements. Cummings said legal experts who are studying the act for him are as yet not certain as to its scope, but that the consensus is that the law applies only in cases where persons are transported across a State line for the specific pur- pose of “interfering with the right of peaceful picketing.” The Attorney General said the lan- guage of the bill does not make it “very clear” as to whether transporta- tion of persons to “interfere with the rights of employes to organize” en- compasses “'strike breakers.” He said use of the words “right of peaceful picketing” has aroused spec- ulation in the department in view of 0 “right” of picketing at all. On the contrary. he said, there are some State laws making picketing & crim- whether the Federal Government has the power to establish by Federal law a “right” that is outlawed in some of the States. Cummings expressed “regret” that Congress had passed the law without providing appropriation for its en- | forcement. He explained the depart- ment has no way of knowing at pres- ent to what extent it will be called | upon to take action under the law, but said the Department of Justice will do its best to enforce the law as it sees it. tions as to its full scope.

The “dust bowl” is a small area as Americans figure areas. Its prob- lem is not small in the same propor- tion.

The Attorney General said the anti- trust division of the Justice Depart- ment is making a broad investigation of charges of collusion, to develop two things: Whether there have been “imme- diate acts of collusive bidding” and whether such acts, if they exist, have any effect “on the broad question of monopoly” in the industry. - Cummings said he had not specified how far back the check should be made, but that it would “go far enough back to be indicative of a continuing practice.” The Attorney General said he was “trying to push this thing along,” be- cause he is “very desirous of reaching a speedy conclusion as to whether there is any action the Government should take.” Cummings’ investigation was asked by President Roosevelt after a study by the Federal Trade Commission.

In an effort to reduce the number of accidents at the northern approach | of the viaduct on Georgia avenue the association voted to urge the county commissioners to have police begin an immediate drive on violators of the speed limit. Action on the proposed safety drive was taken following a report by Wil- tiam F. Carlin, chairman of the Traffic | Committee, that he had been told by | County Commissioner Coughlan that very little could be done at present to change the physical approach to the bridge. Deploring the fact that the Silver Spring Volunteer Fire Department has to conduct its rescue work in a small open truck, the association adopted a resolution calling for the appointment of a committee to confer with the department on the feasibility of purchasing an ambulance. If necessary, the association agreed to offer financial aid toward the pur- chase of the ambulance. Fred L. Lutes, chairman of the committee, is | assisted by Capt. Frank L. Hewitt, Dr. | J. Howell Forsyth and Rev. Ralph D. | Smith. George T. Day heads the committee named to plan for a proper observ- ance of all holidays, particularly July 4, Labor day, Armistice day and | Christmas.
