A ssiStant Secretary Andrews, pro-

Details of the pronouncement ex-

not as yet been revealed, but it is
known that he believes the chief
function of the Federal Government
is stoppage of the sources of the boot

In this connection it was disclosed
today that Gen. Andrews has ordered
dismissal of q prohibition agent at

money" in pursuing, searching and
later arresting a woman motoriSt
when he found she carried "a pint
flask, perhaps a third full"
AS result of the agents action,
which Mr.. Andrews regards as having
rendered the Federal law obnoxious

has informed all administrators and
their deputies of details of the case
This was done, he said, for the guild

and he described the dismissal as a
disciplinary move.
COnferS With Attorney General.
Mr.. Andrews conferred again with
Attorney General Sargent, and there
have been indications that at previous
similar conferences the subject of the
.division of authority and responsi-
'hility was discussed. In effecting the
recent reorganization of the prohibi
