Law BY GEORGE H. MANNING. | (Washington Bureau of N. B. Herald) | © Washington, Jan. 29.—It would be well to place prohibition enforce- | ment agents under lock and key, Con- | gressman Patrick B. O'Sullivan of {l)vrby‘ Conn., declared today in an- | swer to a letter from Ernest V. Cla; pool, superintendent of the Conne | cut anti-saloon league, Hartford, who | recently wrote to O’'SBullivan asking him enforcement agents should be put un- |der the civil service. } The wave of graft, which has re- | sulted in the Teapot Dome scandal involving at least two cabinet officers, has resulted in a large measure, Mr. O’Sullivan asserts, from the cloud of | dishonesty in men’s lives brought |about by the hypocritical Volstead | act. | To place prohibition enforcement agents under the civil service, Mr. | O’Sullivan declares, would not re- move the temptation to corruption or remove the framework of | nature, Mr, |reads as follows: “Your recent let-| |ter referring to the bill to place pro- | hibition enforcement officers under civil service is duly acknowledged. “My own view is that instecad of plmlng prohibition enforcement wng:-ms under clvil" service, it would be far better to place some of them under lock and key. But it may be |that we are hasty in criticlzing them. | The wave of graft and corruption | which, running its course for the past |few years and culminating, it would |now seem in a scandal affecting the integrity of a cabinet officlal, has been due, in a large measure to a cloud of dishonesty in men’s lives oc- | casioned by the hypocritical Volstead act. The temptation for men en- gaged in enforcing such a law has been, is, and always will be great. {To place the stamp of ‘civil service’ |on these agents cannot remove the temptations to corruption or remould | the framework of human nature. “Whether one be labelled cabinet officer, enforcement agent, or merely syperintendent of the anti-saloon league, nature is unchangeable. more splendid example could be |given than that afforded by the spec- |tion In New York—W. H. Anderson, who, even as I write, is awalting the verdiet of the jury to a charge closely allied with corruption. May we not remark in passing that we trust that Mr. Anderson will be found ‘not | guilty” It would make such a splen- | did nrl!umv-nl for law enforcement.” \ELM CITY IS PLANNING Mayor FitzGerald Announces That Connectic Counsel Has Mat- | ‘! ter in Hand at Present.
