Only two members of the com- mission notitied Chairman George W. Wickersharm, former attorney general under President Taft, that théy would be unable to attend today's meetiags. They were Fed- eral Judges William 8. Kenyon, of Towa, and Paul J.

Attorney General Mitchell has offered the facilities and records of his department including the re- cent survey made under his direc- tion of conditions in the offices of the federal district attorneys. The deluge of letters and tele- grams which has been descending daily upon the commission has con- tained many “crank” or “nut” sug- gestions for law enforcement. But on the other hand commission offi- clals declared a number of valuable suggestions had been offercd by private citizens in this way. All Crimes Cousidered While prohibition is one of the uppermost problems before = the commission, its syrvey is not to be centered on any ringle source of crime or lawlemsness, according to the members. The sale of narcotics, the increase of murders and rob- beries in large cities, and sociologi- cal problems brought about by large criminal groups, are among other situations to be Investigated. The commission is expected to de- cide during its meetings, which probably will last until the end of the week, on the question whether hearings in the larger cities of the country. extensive one and since it involves many changes in existing laws gov- erning administrative provisions of the enforcement act, Mr. Hoover deemed it advisable to have repre- sentatives of the house and senate take over thc matter during the months intervening before the reg- ular sesgion. As the program now is generally outlined it 'involves complete re- moval of the prohibition unit from the treasury department with the enforcement agents placed either in an’ existing division of the justice department or the creation of a new division under the direction of an administrative rath- er than a legal officer. The large legul force now employ- ed by the unit presumably would be placed under the assistant attorney general in charge of dry law prose- cution. In addition there are {nvolved questions of administration and co- operation with the customs force ond the coast guard, which would temain within the treasury organi- zation, because their primary duties have to do with enforcement of the customs laws. Other matters to which the joint committee must give attention include that of permits for liquors for medicinal purposes, for industrial alcohol and the use of in- toxicants for other purposes. 3 Permit System Important The permit system is regarded of the highest importance, since ex- perience has shown that much of the illegal liquor now on the market has - BREAD @ guality lsaf—mude with mellk i o z wabes work enjoyoble end bife worthwhils.

Basis of Discussion to Be Demand of 37 Annuities —No Bargaining Ex- pected. Brussels, Belgium, June ¢ UP— Negotiations between Belgium and Germany on the German marks question, which for a time threaten- ed the reparations settlement, will start in Brussels on Monday and ar: expected to be concluded by the end of the week. A The basis of the discussions wiil be the Belgian demand for 37 an- nuities each of 25,000,000 marks (about $6,000,000). This is stated here to represent 925,000,000 gold on Marks Monday the German evacuation. With 'account taken of the years' delay, lost interest and depre- ciation of the franc for which the belated mark settlement is held 4i- rectly responsible by Belgium, Bel- gian opinion does not consider the suggested arrangement a fair deal. Thus the Belgian negotiators are not expected to admit of any further bargaining which, it is said, wouid not only withhold upplication of the Young plan but would induce Belgium to veto any early evacu: tion of the Rhineland which Ge:- many is seeking. % Paris, June 6§ (M—Secretaries and technicians of the experts’ commit- tee on reparations exerted selves today to have the conference report ready for signature of the na- tions' representatives at mnoon to- morrow. ten | them- | before them—the task of compress- | ing the different chapters, clauses, | and annexes of the report having be- | come more difficult as they pro- | gressed. | Much of the material for the re- | port was in a rough English draft | and this must be translated into | French and polished up before it cun | be put into final form.
