Keep the campsite clean for the

attract insects. Nothing makes a
camper angrier than to come upon

 Telegram Quoted

Washington, Oct. 2i,-The long series of disputes over prohibition enforcement in Pennsylvania re- ceived an added chapter yesterday when Mrs. M. w. Willebrandt. as- sistant attorney general, made pub lie a telegram to Joseph NJ, Steele, former president of the law enforce ment league of Philadelphia, which she said was not given out when other correspondence was made public by the league.
 The telegram, sent on July 80. denied that Mrs Willebrandt had made charges in a letter to Steele against the Pennsylvania senators and asserted that she had at no time talked over the work of United States attorneys with either Presi- dent Harding or President Coolidge.
 Mrs Willebrandt told Steele that she regarded her letter 10 him con- cArnIng politics in Pennsylvania prohibition enforcement as confiden- tial and that publication of 1t at the time 1t was written was unjustidable lon the ground that publication will at this time be put to unfair and partisan uses"
 T stand squarely on the truth and sincerity of the statement in my letter" the telegram added. But if 1t Is intended for publication it should have gone into more detail, I have never personally discussed the United States attorneys with either President Harding or Presi- dent Coolidge, though in every in- stance where facts have developed, indicating dereliction of duty in of Aces of United States attorneys, l have called the same to the atten- ton of my superior
 My letter made no charges against your senators. but 1t was in- tended to suggest that if you be- lieved any federal official who is ap- 
 pointed by senate ratification is un- faithful in office, your best proce- dure Is to take the matter up with your senators and get them to ap- peal to the president in dignif1ed manner, rather than for you to en- gage in public snlping accusations
 Lax enforcement by county and municipal authorities in Pennsyl- vsnia cannot be excused on the grounds that evasion of their duty was justified because the federal government IS not doing its duty. If you disregard the court By of my request and reasons thefefor, and publish personal correspondence, I request in the interest of fair deal ings that you publish this wire as well"
 Publication of the telegram came on top of renewed assault on the administrators prohibition en- forcement activities made last night by Samuel Untermyer, New York lawyer, who gave out a lengthy statement including Mrs, Willie braudt's letter 10 MT. Steele.
 -Coincident with Mrs. Willebrandts action, Secretary Mellon declared in discussing general prohibition con- ditions that the efforts at enforce ment were becoming more and more successful"
