That Cheers
Is in Evidence at
Army-Navy Game
Harding May Start Investiga'
ton Into Breakdown of
Prohibition at Annual
Cridiron Contest.

Washington, Nov. 2G.-Investiga'
ton Of the breakdown in the enforce
ment Of prohibition in Philadelphia
last Saturday where 10000 people az
sembled at the annual Army and
Navy game may be ordered this week
by President Har ding.
The violation OF the law was so
flagrant as to be apparent to the
most casual observer. II existed at
the game itself. Men and some wo-
men drank und erneath the stadium
between the halves and at night some
Of the larger hotels were filled with
drunks. There We're so many as to
excite the anger Of members Of con
gress and cabinet officials.
The scenes in the hotels are de-
scribed as quite beyond belief in these
dry" days. The bars In the hotels
sold the mild one.half Of l per cent
drinks, but private rooms had well
flourishing bars in operation and men
and women drank to their satisfac
tion.
1t is understood that Secretary
Weeks intends to call to the atten-
tion Of President Harding, the dis
graceful violations Of the law. Word
comes from Philadelphia that Mr..
Weeks Informed a hotel proprietor
that he will lay the breakdown of
enforcement of the law before the
president at the cabinet meeting next
Tuesday.
In the face of President Harding's
declaration last Friday and discus
sion Of the prohibition question by the
cabinet on that day, those who are
familiar with the situation say that
a rigid investigation will be started.
1t is generally believed that there
will be complete reorganization of
the prohibition enforcement unit
within the next month.
