ANDREWS CONFIDENT
Orders Regional Directors to Go
After Big Fellows and Liquor
Supply Sources

The reorganization of the prohibition
enforcement unit became effective Sep
TENDER l and the regional directors re-
Gently appointed by General Andrews
with their staff of agents took the field
with orders from the chief to clean out
the bootleggers and stop the source of
supply OF contraoand liquor.
According 10 a Washington Associated
Press Dispatch Mr.. Andrews is confident
of ultimate success. This dispatch says
that the sudden passing of authority and
responsibility from Washington to the
divisional administrators has found short
ages of personnel at some points and at
others important posts are held by men
who are not expected 10 be retained per-
manently. In other words the machn-
cry of enforcement under the new plan
is not entirely completed. However, the
area commanders are picking their stats
and Mr.. Andrews is hopeful of finding
some suitable men to fill the gaps among
the leaders.
In addition to seeking the sources of
supply General Andrews has directed his
administrators to pay particular attention
10 the big conspiracy cases.

cohol Conference meeting in Geneva,

tives of the movement against alcoholism
especially in Europe, as well as III the
United States and other parts OF the
world. are meeting in this conference.
Dr. Cannon's proposal with reference
to smuggling is that in order to end
smuggling, exporting countries ought 10
know the exact destination of the liquor
and insist that the exporter give money
guarantee forfeitable in the event OF the
oonsignments not reaching its deStlna-
ton. The conference, he declared, VIII
bring a concrete resolution to the
Leagues notice and it will be in the inter-
est of the League to undertake its further
development He pointed out that the
conference delegates who went to Geneva
at their own expense, being convinced OF
the importance of the conference, repre-
scented fourteen countries, and fourteen
governments were present ofhc1aiiy' thus
providing the worldwide interest IN the
anti-alcohol campaign.
In discussing the purposes OF the con-
ference DIR. Robert Hercod OF Switzer-
land said, I'VE must convince the League
of Nations that alcohol is as dangerous
as oDium and that similar measures must
be taken against it
