Lowman has a force of more than 15,000 persons to use in dry/law en- forcement work. There ars some 4,000 employes of the prohidition bureau, 10,000 officers and men in the coast guard.

Lowman plans to leave the major responaibility for carrying out the Volstead act to Dr. J. M. Doran prohidition commissioner. The as- sistant secretary, however, will be held dlrectly responsible by the ad- ministeation for results. Harery J. Anslinger, -who was 16aned to the prohibition bureau by the state department to organize a 4ivislon of foreign control to end liquor smuggling, will return to his dutles at the state department about August 1.

New Haven, June 17 (P—Propos- als for increase in the pay of op- erators of Connecticut Company trol- ley cars and for fixing of the work- ing day at eight hours instead of inine have been rejected by the com- pany, the New Haven Register said today. The wage proposal would have iglven operators of two man cars 75 cents an hour and increased the wage Of one man car operators 15 cents an hour. President John K. Punderford told the trolleymen’s committee, Reg- ister sald, that in view of the fimancial condition of the road it could not afford to grant the wage increase. He pointed out that the road has paid no dividends since 1916. An effort will be made, according jto the Register, to effect a compro- mise without going to the expense of arbitration, and the workmen are ex- pected to submit compromise pro- posals.

Thomas of the Uhited States | district court had defeated - a be- |lated move on the part of stock- | holders of the Wislau Manufactur- !ing Co. of this city to salvage portion of the estate of the insolvent | company. Judge Thomas, in dismissing the bill of equity and dissolving the in- Junction, decreed against Trustee Charles McLavghlin. In the equity action the trustee sought to regain possession of a factory in Poland, claiming that the directors did not have the right to sell it. Judge Thomas held that his court had no jurisdiction in the matter, since the property in question is located in a | toreign country. The factory in Poland was sold by the directors of the insolvent Wislau Co., in dissolving the corporation and the plant was the subject of liti- gation. It was sold to Sophie Pod- lasek of this city before the coun- try's creditors placed it in bank. Only a small sum of money was paid for the factory and the balance was offset by mortgages held by the purchaser.

Winging his way across the east- ern range of mountains and over the fertile valleys of the middlewest, Colonel Lindbergh, accompanied by an escort squadron of army planes, Wwas to arrive over the Mississippi river here about 3:30 o’clock. Cheers and Whistles His appearance will be the signal for an outburst of cheers and a thunderous din of whistles, bells and automobile horns, surpassed not even by the celebration staged when the World War armistice was signed. Dipping his “Spirit of St. Louis” in salute to the colors of the naval reserve, stationed on the river front, Colonel Lindbergh will circle the city at low altitude and then con- tinue his flight to the Lambert-8t. Louis flying fleld, 15 miles from the city, where he officially will be welcomed by the governor of Mis- souri and the mayor of St. Louls. Every effort by the police depart- ment will be expended to keep the crowde from swarming onto the fiy- ing fleld and making the fiyer's landing hasardous. National Guards- men will be stationed along the high wire fence encireling the field to Kkeep bael those who may become over-zealous in attempting to ex- tend their welcome to the noted birdman. Might Ghange Fields Major Albert B. Lambert, com- mandant at the flying fleld and | Litutenant Colonel John Paegelow, commandant at Scott Field, near Belleville, IIl,, across the Mississippi river from here, have arranged to signal the fiyer it the crowds become unruly, and have him make his landing at Scott Field. The two commandants believe, however, that the throng adequately ¢an be taken care of and that a change in land- ing flelds will not*be necessary. Immediately after the official wel- come by QGovernor Sam A. Baker and Mayor Victor Miller, Colonel Lindbergh will be taken to the home of Harry H. Knight, one of the backers of the aviator's New, Paris flight, where Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, is staying. 8he arrived yesterday by rail from New York to witness the three day celebratién this city has planned for her son. Both will spend the Aight as guests at the Knight home. Parade Tomorrow A gigantic parade through the residential and business sections of ths city, a private luncheon at the Coronado hotel, and the champion- ship flag-raising ceremonies by the St. Louls Cardinals at Sportsman | Park, are the high lights of the functions arranged for Colonel Lindbergh tomorrow. He"will be given a banquet at the Chase hotel tomorrow night, at; which the city's gift—a gold orna- mented box, containing an illumin- ated manuscript of parchment, bear- ing the welcome of St. Louls and signed by Mayor Miller—will be pre- sented to him. Dwight F. Davis, secretary of war, | will present the trans-Atlantic fiyer | with a commission of colonel in the lair service reserve corps of the | United States army at a public pro- gram at Forest Park Sunday, which will mark the conclusion of the | three-day celebration. Lindbergh's | commission and the distinguished flying cross, conferred upon him by President Coolidge, represents the official honors which he has re- ceived from the government. He also will receive a commission of colonel in the Missouri National | Guard from Governor Baker at the | Sunday exercises. | At the conclusion of the ceremon- fes fn Forest Park, Cbdlonel Lind- bergh will place a wreath on the | statue of the symbolic figure of St. Louis on top of Art Hill. Speakers on Sunday's program will be Secretary of War Davis, Gov- ernor Baker, United States Senator Harry Hawes, Mayor Miller, Knight and Hareld M.
