BUSCH DISCL0SES HOW
 isTH WORKS UNFAIRLY
II. Laais nre-.er Writes Lang Leslsr af Complaint la President
 Coolidge

st Louis. Ao,, Oct, sA<-Pelltieal considerations, such as the raising af Party campaign funds, have entered the enforcement Of the national pros hihillan law and apparently has made certain large cities immune from Is provisions, August 4. Busch, former brewer, declared in a letter to rresi- dent Coolidge made public here last night, The letter was written under date of October IS in connection with the conference Of governors al wash- ington today
 In the letter MT. Busch asserted that the huge steel. oil and packing interests financed and advocated sn. fofeement of the 1 sth amendment to sidetraek government antitrust pro- ceedings against them. and that only two and one-haif per cent Of the people had a voice in enactment of the law. The letter ascribed the latter assertion as the reason for its whole- sale disregard.
 Mir. Busch declared lax enforcement has corrupted the federal service. up- rooted respect for law. and has set back the cause Of temperance many years by driving the illicit manufac- ture of intoxicants Into the home and by flooding the country with smngsied liquors.
 He said that when his representa- tive presented evidence of widespread violation to enforcement officials at Washington. an officer he did not name admitted that "the department has become so corrupt that it could not enforce the law"
 The letter concludes with reference to recent communication from Pro- hibition Commissioner Haynes to Con- gressman Hill Of Maryland regarding farmers making cider and fruit juices for their own use. which MT. Busch interpreted as .exempting the farm CTS from the yolstead act"

HOME BREWERS HIT
Haynes Notifies Manufacturers of Malt Syrnps To Discontinue Their

Washington, Oct 2o.-As a move to stamp out "The menace of traffic in home brew ingredients at the source prohibition commissioner Haynes has notified Breweries to cease the manu- facture of malt syrups said to be the base for much homemade beer under penalty of revocation of their permits to manufacture cereal bev- erages.
 In announcing his campaign against home brew, Mir. Haynes said it was the intention "to absolutely stamp out the menace in all sections Of the country in campaign to halt the manufacture and traffic of home brew ingredients at the source"
 Although prohibition officials here tofore apparently have been of the opinion that the sale of malt and other beer making materials, Tn which traffic has become extensive in many cities, could not be regarded as a violation of the prohibition law. Commissioner Haynes believes the matter can be dealt with effectlVeiy through the federal permit powers.
