REVENUE AGENTS
TO COLLECT TAX
Internal Service Will Not
Have Charge of Enforc-
ing Prohibition.

Tee Job OF enforcing wartime pro-
hibition falls to the United States dis
trict attorneys. according to views
expressed by Daniel c. Roper. Com
missioner of Internal Revenue.
Roper's statement came after he had
gone thoroughly into statutes and
regulations governing the sale OF
liquor and after he had been gwen
an opinion by the solicitor of the
bureau covering the Presidential
proclamation.
In Hands of L. s. Attorneys.
Enforcement of the prohibition con-
tanned in the act approved November
p last year." Roper said, "leaves the
work of making the country dry in
the hands of L. S. attorneys. This is
made clear by the section OF the act
whi-h provides that any person who
violates any OF che foregoing prUvi.
sions shall be punished by imPrison-
ment or by fine
Existing revenue laws with regard
10 the control of Illicit liquor manu-
facture and sale Will remain II force
until repealed bv Congress. 1t is only
on tbs phase OF the law enforcement
that the Internal Revenue Bureau can
give it's attention"
Recent reports that Commissioner
Roper would turn loose about 90
revenue agents on the JOB of enforc-
ing the prohibition act is now shown
to be disCredited. Some of these
agents will be sed in guarding i'm
