~ HAYNES LIKELY T0 QUIT “DRY’ OFFIGES With Harding Gone, He Has no Official Friends Lelt BY GEORGE H, (Washington Bureau ot Na‘fv‘s’{rh:{mummld). Washington, D. . Aug. 28—Re- ports of - Prohibition Commissioner Roy A, Haynes' {llness are being gen- erally taken as practically conclusive verification of recent predictions that the Ohio man will' resign his post as head of the Volstead law enforcement bureau before snow flies. With W arren, G, Harding, his spon- “or and protector, gone, Haynes will find it very uncomfortable and diffi- cult to work under Secretary Mellon and Internal Revenue Commissioner Blair who have “had it in for him' from the start, it is believed. The consensus of opinion is that Mr. Haynes sees the handwriting on the wall, and realizes that, although President Coolidge may be a staunch supporter of his predecessor's policies, he does not ‘feel called on to assume Mr. Harding's friendships. With Grain of Salt. FFor this reason, the alleged serious- r.ess of Mr. Haynes' condition is taken with several grains of salt by ‘most volitical wiseacres, who sce in the throat operation about to be under- gone by the anti-hooch director a more or less providential excuse for the tendering of his resignation on iceount of i1l health. Not that there is any doubt as to the fact of Mr. Haynes' throat trouble, Several times before during his incumbency he has disappeared from the capital for medical treatment, but he has usually managed to return to his desk, with at least enough vocal powers to whisper’ orders to his trusted aides, and to Boast of the way the country i being ‘dried up.” Mr. Haynes has recently been aquoted as having told several of his friends that he was planning to resign his office in order to become a can- didate for zovernor of Ohio. It is now learned from a reliable source, however, that he has abandoned this idea-—and some say that the ground of ill health is liable to cause liim less embarrassment, than any other ex- cuse. Probably Will Retir But whatever the grounds, therc are very few who doubt that Commis- vioner Haynes is going to retire. The whole history of his occupancy of his office is a story of his protection by President Harding, who had a close friendship th his fellow Ohio editor. Neither $eeretary Mellon nor Internal Revenue Commissioner Blair, Haynes' immediate superiors, have ever dis- played any marked sympathy with the Haynes admini jon, and the presi- dent’s int ntion has heen continu- ally nec to shield the prohibi- tion commissioner from the wrath of Lis departmental chiefs. As an i ance of the way in which Mr, Hayvnes was always geiting him- self in hot water with his superiors is the comparatively recent episode of his book--a complete story of pro- hibition enforcement: as “vaged under Commissioner Hayne§, ‘written by Mr. Haynes' government-paid public staff, which he sold to the New York ‘struggle, he had to name Times for serfal publication, prior to its app book form. Book Causes Trouble When this was announced, the charge was at once made that, if the information in Mr. Haynes'‘book was properly public information it should have been given free of charge to all papers alike—and if not information to which the public was entitled, it could not ethically be published by Mr. Haynes in any way, This popu- lar view of the situation “was fully acquiesced in by Commissioner Blair, and Haynes was summoned to his office and put on the carpet for the greater part of two days. Just what Mr. Hayneés was told by his chief will probably always remain shrowded in mystery—but aside from speaking his mind with more or less freedom in the privacy of his office, Mr. Blair was powerless to adminis- ter any public rebuke because Presi- dent Harding had sonctioned thé Haynes book by personally wrmns the introduction to it. President Coolidge’s attitude toward Haynes is not known to be unfriendly; but it is certain that Mr, Haynes will no longer be able to look to the White House for a champion against Secre- tary Mellon and Commissioner Blair. And under these circumstances his tenure of office will be precarious, to say the least, Not a Bed of Roses. Bven with President Harding's protection, Haynes' job was nothing resembling a bed of roses. When he brought Hazeltine, the so-called “bearcat of the northwest,” to Phila- b delphia as divisional director, he was met by Senator Pepper's refusal to countenance the operations of the northwestern prodigy in his state, and forced to send the ‘“bearcat” to Florida. ‘When he attempted to name an anti-saloon leaguc candidate as pro- hibition director for New Jersey, the appointment was blocked by Senator 1dge, and after six months of futile an ldge man, When, after the fall of Hazeltine in Philadelphia, by the diction of Sena- (] eclor Sams was sent nator lidge delivered his edict that Mr. Sams might work in Pennsylvania, but his activities were not wanted and would not be permitted in, New Jersey—and since that time the New Jersey state direc- tor, a close friend of Senator Edge's has had full sway in New Jersey, while the divisional director has con- fined himself to the Pennsylvania half of his division. Similar occurrences tor Pepper, D to that post, ' throughout the country have continu- ally marked the administration of Commissioner Haynes. Incidentally, it may also be men- tioned that former Congressman Bas- com Slemp, who has been named as secrettary to President Coolidge, and i sexpected to act as political advisor to the chief executive, has never been heard emitting loud cheers for Haynes. Mr. Siemp, however, did have an important part in the ap- pointment of Blair, his close. friend as revenue commissioner, and might be expected to back up the latter in any move to oust Haynes which he might find necessar: '~|:-<-u-|m~ Blouse. stressing the sleeviess Paris i3 blouse at present. of bright figured materjal ‘or is heav- ily embroidertd.

One of the mysteries confronting the police is how the poison was ad- ministered. No glasses showing the | slightest trace of poison had been found in the apartment. There was a suggestion that the death poison had been placed in the stem of Sut- phen’s pipe. No definite motive could be found for the murder, although police stressed the importance of finding the women seen in the apartment. It was not until his death that “double life” was revealed. Sutphen's expenditures and their relation to his probable income as private secretary to George A.
