OF this service should be in close contact
with the federal prohibition enforcement
corps on shore SO that in the event SNUG
glers escape their vigilance within the ter
ritorial waters, they might be appre-
hended by the force operating on land.
Members of the coast guard assigned
to the life saving station also obtain in
formation concerning the movements of
smugglers. They should be required to
make report. In the income tax division
clues are frequently obtained which, if
investigated would result in bringing to
light violations of the prohibition law
Where these various activities are with
IN single department., as in the Treas
ury, the department head could promote
better enforcement of the law if he were
to direct officers and employees in his de-
partment to promptly refer information
concerning the violation of the various
laws to the proper departments within
his jurisdiction
In cases involving the transmission of
information between the respective de-
partments, probably the only solution
would be by means of an executive or
der. Such an order issued by the Pres-
dent, which would direct the attention of
all officers and employees in the govern
ment service to the fact that the Supreme
Court has declared it to be the duty of all
citizens to report violations of all federal
statutes, would result in the placing of
an amazing amount of information in the
hands of enforcement officers, which
otherwise would require much investiga-
ton to obtain. Some plan for the desig-
nation of a special intelligence officer, to
whom such reports could be made for the
distribution to the various departments,
would bring about a better coordination
and understanding among the several de-
partments and speed up law enforcement.

tries engaged in the smuggling of liquors
into the United States. These officers
would be in position to furnish data
concerning the clearance of vessels sus-
pected of rum running. They could also
supply much data which would be waltz
able in acting upon applications for the
issuance of passports.
Agricultural Department: This de-
partment administers the Pure Food and
Drug Acts In the matter of branding
and labelling products manufactured I'M
der this act, information is sometimes
obtained which would be helpful to the
permit division OF the prohibition unit
in passing upon applications for basic
permits to manufacture products under
the national prohibition act.
Labor Department: This department
is charged with the duty of administering
the immigration laws. The smuggling of
aliens and the smuggling of liquors are
closely related The inspectors of the
Labor Department obtain much informa-
ton which would be of great value in the
administration of the prohibition law.
The Army and Navy Department:
While the naval and military forces of the
United States can not be used to admin
lister civil law, nevertheless members of
the armed forces of the United States are
sworn to uphold the Constitution. It is
their duty to report to proper civil au-
thorities violations of the civil laws.
Officers of the navy in time of peace can
render much service by reporting the
movements of rum running vessels. Off
GERS and enlisted men in the army: par
ticular1y those stationed along the inter-
national border, those engaged in the
coast defense service, and those stationed
on military reservations for the protec-
ton of the Indians, frequently obtain evil
dence which would be helpful to the en-
forcement division in the suppression of
smuggling and other forms of violation
of the prohibition act
Treasury Department: Within the
Treasury Department there are number
of divisions which have to deal with va
rious phases of prohibition enforcement.
These are the coast guard, the customs
officers, the internal revenue agents, and
the income tax agents. 1t is the practice
of customs officers at many places espe-
cially along the international border,
whenever individuals attempt to smugg1e
liquor into the United States to confscate
the liquor to collect the amount of tax
and penalty under the customs laws.
When this is collected the offender is
permitted to go on his way. No further
action is taken. Each of these cases in
volve a violation of the prohibition act.
There is no reason why cases of this
character should not be reported promptly
to the prohibition enforcement unit for
investigation and prosecution. Many
times customs officers, from the CONVEX
sation of those with whom they come in
contact in the administration of the Gus
toms laws, obtain information concerning
the schemes of smugglers to evade the
customs laws which would be of great
assistance to the prohibition enforcement
division. Officers in the customs service
should be directed to bring all such infor-

II LINCOLN c. ANDREWS OF TREAS DEPT IN CHARGE
Should be Extended Include Other Departments
nation Hands of Other Departments Often Enforce
ment Unit Through Lack of Coordination

Through reorganization IN the Treas
ury Department April l General Lincoln
c. Andrews of New York, recently APP
pointed Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury, was placed in charge of the coast
guard, customs, thermal revenue and pro-
hibition unit activities. According to the
statement of Gerard B. Winston, acting
Secretary of the Treasury, the prohibition
unit will continue to act through the COM
missioner of internal revenue as provided
for by law Under the reorganization
plan, however, David II. Blair, Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, and McKin-
zie Moss, Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury and assistant commissioner,
will have little to do with the practical
activities of the prohibition unit which
will be under the direction of General
Andrews.
General Andrews is an army officer of
thirty years experience He was gradu-
ated from West Point in 1893 and rose to
the rank of brigadier general during the
World War. He is known as a strict
discplinarian.
Step in Right Direction
The Anti-Saloon League believe that
this coordination of these arms of the
service and the appointment of General
Andrews is big step in the right direc-
ton to get cooperation in the Treasury
Department for law enforcement. The
only defect is that it probably does not
~ l. II
if it should unite other agencies for en-
forcement outside the Treasury. This
was recommended by the report of the
committee on the alcoholic liquor traffic.
1t has been urged by the Ant-Saoon
League for more than a year.
General Andrews appointment no
doubt will bring about greater cooperation
OF the coast guard, customs and internal
revenue departments with the prohibition
unit and it is to be hoped that it will be
extended to take in other departments of
government which have much informa-
ton concerning liquor law violations.
Contrary to press reports concerning
this appointment, it is not to supersede
the activities of the prohibition enforce
ment unit but rather to help that depart
ment to get the cooperation of the other
divisions and agencies of government.
President Coolidge Approves
The Washington Star sets forth the
statement from the White House con-
corning this new officer and his duties
as follows:
President Coolidge is represented
by those with whom he has discussed
the Encouragement of prohibition en-
forcement agencies in the Treasury
Department to place them all under
the supervision of Assistant Secretary
Andrews, as feeling sure that this
change will bring about a more eff
fective enforcement of the Volstead
law He does not believe, however,
that the change will involve any
change of policy.
1t is the Presidents understanding
that General Andrews will act as spe-

cial representative Of Secretary Mel
Ion in prohibition matters and par
ticularly as a liaison officer between
Mr.. Mellon and Prohibition Commits
sioner Haynes
The new arrangement in the opin-
ion of Mr.. Coolidge will place Mr..
Haynes in a more advantageous po-
sition in his efforts to enforce the dry
law and at the same time will relieve
Mr.. Mellon of much of the detail
which has burdened him in his rela-
tons with the prohibition unit
The cost for the current fiscal year of
the three activities which will be headed
by General Andrews was given at the
Treasury as follows: customs enforce
ment, $l7,000,000; coast guard activities,
$28,000000; prohibition unit $l1,000000.
The position of the Anti-Saloon League
was submitted to the Couzens committee
recommending this change as follows:
Better Coordination of Governmental Ac-
tivities for Prohibition Enforcement
In addition to the prohibition unit there
are a number of departments of govern
ment whose activities bring them either
directly or indirectly in contact with the
matter of prohibition enforcement The
officers in these various departments fire.
quently have brought to their attention
information concerning violations of the
national prohibition act. There is at the
present time no adequate system for the
- .~fo 4:
tributing it in proper channels so that it
may be promptly acted upon and the Of
tenders brought to justice. This same
principle is true with reference to the
various other departments, as the agents
of one department frequently obtain in
formation concerning infractons of the
law administered by other departments.
Many times this information is not re-
ported because in a government so vast,
the particular individual to whose atten-
ton it is brought does not know to whom
the report should be made, and in some
cases the feeling exists that matters re-
lating to violations of laws not immedi-
ately under the supervision of the depart
ment with which the officer is connected
is not matter with which we should be
concerned.
There is need for the designation in
each of the departments of a particular
officer to inform the enforcement depart
ment of violations of the law coming to
their attention, and it should be made the
duty of this designated officer to place
such information in proper channels so
that it could be promptly investigated
The attention of all officers of the gov
eminent should be called to the fact that
it is not their duty to enforce simply the
law which is under the jurisdiction of
their particular department. but that they
must aid in the enforcement of all federal
statutes. Illustrating this, the officers of
the following departments at times re-
ceive information which would be valua-
bic to the prohibition unit.
State Department: The members of
the consular and diplomatic service fire.
