SEES PERIL IN
LAW VIOLATION
Breakdown Of the Prohibition
Act Gives Harding Fear.
CABINET PONDERS REMEDIES
President and His Advisers Meet to
Talk of Enforcement FaiIure-May
Appeal to Public for
Support.

Washington, Nov. 25.-COmplete
breakdown in liquor law enforcement,
bringing with it a contempt for all
law and, graver still, lack of full
measured respect for American insti-
tutiOnS, is giving President Harding
and other administration leaders
grave concern. The entire time of
the cabinet session Friday was given
to consideration of the failure to make
the country measurably dry.
Holds People Accountable.
The cabinet concluded that the peO-
pie were to be held accountable for
the failure rather than the law. An
official statement made after the cab
met meeting as to the situation
throughout the country as far as pro-
hibitiOn is concerned created mild
sensation in Washington because it
was so in contrast with official an
nOuncementS made over a long period
of months by Prohibition Commission
er Haynes, which in every instance
proclaimed a growing respect for the
law and an increase in sentiment for
law enforcement.
Concerned by Disregard.
The concern of the President and
his advisers is primarily with the
menace to the country seen in the dis
regard for the prohibition law by
otherwise law-abiding citizens.
The cabinet discussed ways and
means Of Strengthening law enforce
ment and regard for the prohibition
laws and the eighteenth amendment.
The conclusion was that some form
Of appeal to the people was neces-
Sary. A means is being sought to get
the support and help of the conscience,
driven, government-lOving members OF
the community that they will not per
NIT or countenance violation of the
liquor laws any more than other laws
