ANDREWS ASSAILED
 FOR WET ATTITUDE
Law Enforcement Official Says
 He Should Resign

Boston, April IS R)-Gcncral Iin- coln C. Andrews, in charge of na- tional prohibition enforcement, should resign if he is not in agree ment with the law he is set to en- force in the opinion of Mrs. Henry W. Peabody of Beverly, chairman of the womon's national committee for law enforcement. Mrs. Peabody who headed a delegation of women in support of the Folstead act at the senate prohibition hearing, arrived in Boston today. She criticised sharply the manner in which the hearing was conducted.
 "I voice feeling of indignation and protest that at q hearing of the senate judiciary committee the time for witnesses was consumed in repe- tition of questions on the part of the senator from Missouri to prove tho case against the present law" she said.
 Commenting upon the opinion of General Andrews to the effect that the salc of notwithstanding beer un- der strict control would improve conditions, Mrs. Peabody said:
 General Andrews statement ex- plains in part the criticism of his department. If he Is not in agree ment with the law which he is set to enforce. he should resign. We were told during the convention, April ii to 13, that the law Is open ly and constantly violated in Wash. ington society and were urged to protest.
 I've did not go to Washington from 26 states to investigate society or the government; that is for gov ernment officials to do without fear or favor. We did not pass q resolu- ton condemning cocktails or indors- ing the ten commandments. We did did urge that the government and the state show resolution in dismiss Ing men who fail in their duty. high or low. Law breakers must not be law makers. =.
 "No organization of men or wom- en intent upon observance and en- forcement of law can do much by resolutions. Their only efficient ac- ton must be taken at the polls. We are unwilling to believe the stories told of Washington society, and wait contradiction that will assure the country that our representatives in Washington and members of their families are not breaking the law
