Shake-up in Prospect. A far-reaching “shake-up” in the Secret Service appeared to be in pros- pect as a result of the expose of un- authorized activities by agents of that service. It was indicated at the Department of Justice that apologies, alone, will | not be satisfactory. Dismissal of agents involved will be demanded, it was learned. The “spying” was a direct violation of Secret Service law and regulations, it was declared, amounting to illegal use of Govern- ment money Treasury officials at first had ridi culed reports of Secret Service * snip VACUUM CLEANERS Free inspection to all Royal users 517 10th SI NW. 1 THE EVENING ing” at the G-men, but admitted the “jll-advised activities” after receiving written statements from Secret Service men in St. Paul and Chicago. Secretary Morgenthau is on vaca- tion, but is said to be as “horrified” as McReynolds over the revelations. There have been -previous reports that Treasury investigators were aim- ing undercover blows at the Federal Bureau of Investigation and that they have “fed” to certain newspapers ma- terial for articles. criticizing J. Edgar Hoover and his men. Hoover is known to have aroused enmity in some political quarters for refusing to appoint certain applicarts with fine political indorsements, but who failed in entrance examinations. William H. Moran, veteran chief of the secret service, declared today that if any such activities have occurred they were without his permission and knowledge. “Certainly I gave no orders for such an investigation,” Moran said. “We have our own work to do and that keeps us busy enough. The secret service is limited by law to investigating counterfeiting and to protecting the President and his family.

I have the utmost confidence in Mr. Hoover. “If anybody thinks he can pry him out by ill-advised tactics—and I'm not referring to the present instance— he's picked the wrong spot.” Cummings is said to have objected strenuously to the Treasury upon learning of the reported activities of the secret service men. The White House also is believed to have been advised, because of the close associa- tion .of the secret service with the White House. 17,000-Mile Voyage Begun.
