 Although no definite statement has come from the Smith camp as to their attitude on this question 1t IS asserted by his Followers that he pre- fers to abide by the present proceed ure.
 Despite the fact that close friends of Homer <. Cummings. of Connccti- cut declared that he was not a can didate for the chairmanship of the rules committee it was freely predict ed by well-informed observers and leaders today that he would be draft ed for tho post

Mrs. Wilcbrandt declared the sue eessful prosecution of large scale bootlcggrrs al Atlanta, brought up in the testimony had been a most suc- ccssful cHdcaror of the department of justice and that he evidence had only been procured for convictions by many months of persistent and patient "un- der cover work" of secret agents
 "The trouble about criticisms that come in these bis cases" she said, "is that the critics have only the general knowledge and you cant convict pco- pie on that. You have to get To the bottom with specific names. dates and instances. The bootlcggers boast be- fore they get in iail. but after that they only muttcr quietly"
 With reference 10 the executive clemcncy obtained by Philip Gross man of Chicago. Mrs Nillcbrandt said there was mo doubt but that the cor rupt local political ring out in Chi cago kept him out Of jail"
 John W. H. Grim. special assistant to tn" attorney general. fntcryeued when Mrs. Willehrandt repeatedly re fused to say whether local officials of the department of justice at Chicago lad concealed the facts in making un the pardon record.
