tice. Tho senator further states that
the presen, system OF enforcement IS
Ineffective. wasteful. demoralizing and
Scandalous.
1t may be accepted without argument
that many liquor violators are not be-
ing caught. At the same time. the
clogged condition of the courts. due to
the large number of liquor cases Is
prima facie proof that Uncle Sam
present enforcement agents are doing
some excellent work To make enforce
men, effective would require both
larger and better organized force OF
agents and special courts TO handle
liquor cases promptly.
Whether the department OF justice
would handle the situation any better

utNIy certain. However, tts greater en-
perience in police matters should prove
valuable.
