PROHIBITION WILL BE PRESSED, SAYS KRAMER
New U. s. Chief Declares Drought Will be Real Thing,
.sss'"ss""f'' 's'ssfi

Mansfield, Ohio.-The new federal prohibition enforcement law IS sun- cient.
 It can be enforced.
 It will be enforced.
 The United States is really going to be dry, instead of half dry or maKe- believe dry, as it Is today.
 These are the matured decisions or Honest John" Kramer, Mansfield at- torney. Sunday school teacher, con- frmed dry, but no zealot, who is the one person out of 1OO,0OO,00O in the United States chosen by Internal Re- venue Collector D. c. Roper to tackle the biggest law-enforcement 1oD tnls country ever undertook, and as Tar reaching in it's social effects as the Chinese abolition of opium several years back.
 MT. Kramer has spent most of his time since his appointment in his law office. over a hardware store, just as he has spent most of his days except Sunday for several years. Telegrams are being delivered to him at all hours Some contained congratula- tons. some were dpp1lCdI1OAo AOA jobs, for as head of the huge prohi- bition enforcement machine that the government is shortly to set up Mr. Kramer will have an army Of hun dreds of agents scattered from coast to coast.
 Why did the government, out Of the thousands of available men, go into Mansfield and choose John F. Kramer for the difficult place of prohibition commissioner?
 Serious consideration was given to some twenty-five possibilities. The government wished to have the en- sorcement of prohibition, both of war time and permanent prohibition under the constitutional amendment which NecomeS effective next January, in he hands of it's friends, but at the same time it did not want to entrust the task to a zealot. These things counted in MT. Kramer's favor:
 He is a man of strong moral con- victions. .,:
 He is a forceful talker and one of the tasks of the prohibition commits sioner will be to "sell the idea" of prohibition to the country.
 The first prohibition commissioner is fifty, of medium build and height.
 Mr. Kramer is the product of an Ohio farm.
