SAYS DRY BUREAU CORRUPT
Department Filled With Political Ap.
pointees, Representative Says.

Washington. ID. C., March L.
Charges that the federal prohibition
bureau is full of political appOintces
from top to bottom" and that some
of its officers are not in sympathy
with the enforcement of the Nolstead
act, were made in the House today
by Representative Cooper, Ohio.
Representative Cooper also charged
that the district attorney and United
States marshal here "do not take the
enforcement Of the prohibition law
with sufficient seriousness"
when q bootlegging case comes
before the court here" Cooper said
young and inexperienced attorneys
are assigned to the cases, while the
bootleggers have the best legal tai
ent obtainable.
"Thcre is n powerful influence in
the national capital toward the illegal,
disgraceful and notorious traffic in
booze" Cooper declared. These peo.
pie of the gay night life, mixing their
cocktails and highballs, are the first
to speak in condemnation of the Of
ficers, who take their lives in their
hands when they interfere with the
bold bandits who are engaged in sup
plying thirsty patrons.
The shooting Of Senator Greene,
Vermont. has done more 10 focus ct
tention of the public on the bold out
law dealers in liquor than anything
else"
Cooper said the blame for the ac
cidental shooting of Senator Greene
should be placed on the patrons of
bootleggers.

WANTS UNIVERSITY
FREE FROM "SLIMY"
HANDS OF POLITICS
Former Instructor Says
Strictly Educational
School Desired.

That the Texas Legislature should
take the hands of Shiny politics from
the University of Texas and make il
strictly educational institution was
the recommendation made by DIR. w.
T.. Mather. member Of the faculty for
20 years, in an address at the annual
banquet of ExStudents of the Texas
University Association at the Meng9r
hotel Saturday night. The banquet
was in the nature of n celebration OF
Texas Independence Day.
DIR. Mather did not go into detail
regarding the part politics has played
in the management Of the state insti-
tuition, confirming his reference to thi.
matter to this one recommendation.
He pointed out, however. that for the
size of the state, the university has
too small tract of land for cam
pus. The 200 acres of ground, he de-
ella red, can hardly provide for the thou
sands who attend school.
People boast of the size OF the
state DR.. Mather said. ''but they
should get to work and do things. The
universities are included in the part of
the state that should be helped"
Judge X. L. Seagler also made a
brief address. 0. b. Black was toast
master.
New officers were elected as fol-
lows: Winchester Kelso, president ;
Charles X. Tips, vice president; Mrs.
X. +. Spencer, secretary, and Mrs.

sentative.

going to tell the jury everything. |
don't care where it hits was the de-
| fiant reply of former Director of the
Veterans Bureau Charles II. Forbes
tonight to the Indictment for bribery
returned against him by federal
grand jury in Chicago.
'If ever man was subjected to n
contemptible frameup, I'm that man."
said Forbes.

, was laid and | know the man who
propose to submit conclusive evidence
of this conspiracy which was founded

| Forbes. though repeatedly restrain
ed by his. counsel, in IN interview here
declared that the chief witness against
him. Elias III. Mortimer. had con
lspired with various officials of the
department of Justice whom he has
long been shielding from prosecution.
Forbes charged that the sudden trip
of Attorney General Daugherty To
Chicago had either "been TO throw
prestige of his official position into the
wavering scales of justice so that an
indictment might be forced. or prevent
the indictment of other persons high
in the councils Of his administration
and his political party"
"What is the deal between Mortim-
err and the Department of Justice
demanded Forbes. why was he given
immunity"
| Anxious For Trial.

| on bail for nearly year after an
J indictment for a liquor law violation
! in New York and that he had been
defended by Thomas Fielder, Attorney
General Daugherty's assistant in the
! Morse pardon case. Forbes said the
! Department of Justice has long had
| Il file in evidence duplicating Morti'
mer in bootlegging deals in Baltimore
Washington and Pittsburg. but thai
| he has never been prosecuted.
Forbes declared he is anxious &c
| appear in court where he will have
the flair hearing" which. he asserts
the Senate investigating committed
| denied him.
Counsel for Forbes deny that it is
| planned TO call Mrs. 'Notaw. sister Of
| the late President Harding. as n wit
ness. Forbes interrupted to say that
she had nothing TO do with th'
Veterans Bureau business" lie ex
| planned that her only connection hat

introduced him to both j. W. Thomp

tractor. was indicted with Forbes.

| Mortimer. Forbes said, had claimed
TO be related to the Harding family
and since both Mr. and Mrs. MORT
mer had been on very friendly term
with Mrs. Yotaw. he had "never ques
toned the claims"
Forbes was bitter in his denuncia
ton of the Senate committee, Brig
Gen. Sawyer. whom he characterized
as "spineless," William J. Bnrns o
the Department Of Justice. whom h
accused of shielding Mortimer, an,
the counsel to the Senate committee
whom he charged with "brow beat

BANKER
MEETING NOTES

A conference of bankers and farm
ers Of the Fifth Federal Reserve Dis
trict held recently at Raleigh, North
Carolina. under the auspices of the
American Bankers Association Agri.
cultural Commission, adopted the fol.
lowing principles:
I'm order to encourage and promote
a safe, sane and constructive system
of farm practices, the Banker and
Farmer Conference of the Fifth Fed
eral Reserve District would make this
following recommendations with ref
erence to the activities of farmers
and bankers on which to concentrate
efforts during the coming year:
Il. Encouragement of loans by bank
ers to bright and deserving young
men and young women who wish to
go to college to study agriculture and
home economics.
"2. Promote in a rational and con-
sentative way the economic Increase
in the productiveness of the soils OF
the district SO that a larger unit OF
crop production may be secured.
Small unit yields of necessity are
expensive while moderate to large
yields of crops are generally the
cheapest. Larger yields per acre
coupled with a reduction in the acre
age, when advisable, should and usu
ally will be more profitable and when
handled properly will not lead to an
over-production.
SO. Encouragement Of a proper sys-
TEN of diversified farming In which
farmers will grow as far as practical
all the food and feed crops necessary
for feeding the family and livestock OF
the farm, and TO keep or the farms
the requisite kinds and amounts OF
livestock best to meet the economic
needs of farming.
az. To formulate and put In motion
definite plans for carrying out this
it is urged that the Agri-
cultural College of the District put
a county agent in every county and
that a banker-farmer conference be
called to meet early in the fall at the
agricultural college of each State"
