 Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney general in charge of prohibition urged amendment of the Nolstead act 10 permit courts in their discretion to impose jail sen- sences heavy enough to fit the facts"

 Mrs. Willebrandt reported ''in- creasing cooperation" by the foreign governments in the suppressing of rum smuggling and related that the Honduran government had dismissed two of its consuls for .ssuing tem- porary sea letters to vessels. Both Great Britain and Honduras, she said, had indicated a desire to pre- vent the use of their flags by rum runners.
 Donovan's Report
 William J. Donovan, assistant to tho attorney general and in charge of antitrust cases, suggested possi- ble amendments to section seven of the Clayton act without definite recommendations. He said there had been criticism that the act enjoined the acquisition of stock of a com peting corporation but not the &C., 4uisition of its property and assets.
 Donovan also said complaints had had been made that the act now prevents the merger of two small corporations whose joining may only serve to enable them to con- pete more successfully with an al- ready existing larger unit in the same line.
 Summarizing activities of the antitrust division, Donovan said IS criminal and 21 civil cases had been finally determined in the last fiscal year and seven criminal and eight civil cases instituted. First atten- ton was given. he said, to clearing up old cases, while particular at-

TWO DIE WHEN
 CAR SUbMERGES
Mishap May Have Followed
 Parking Party

Plymouth, Mass, Dec. 6 Pl-De- tails of the strange tragedy in which Sarah Swift of Chiltonville and An tonic Thomas of North Plymouth rode in an automobile 10 their deaths in Little Pond remained un- explained today.
 Although satisfied that their lives were lost through mischance as of flcially reported in the medical ex. aminer's verdict of Faccidenta drowning, the authorities were pug
 zled by the facts that the car was found in 30 feet of water and SD feet from shore with ignition switch turned off and emergency brake set. The spot where the car was founG was 150 yards from the road Five Days Lost For five days the pond had held
 the secret of the disappearance of the girl and young man, while po- lice had tried to trace them after they left Plymouth center last Mon
 day night. Saturday the girls body was found floating In the pond,
 and yesterday searchers with grap- l bling irons recovered Thomas's body and located the submerged automo-
 bile.
 i All the windows of the automo-
 ble were closed, but that beside the drivers seat was broken. Three
 cuts in Thomas's left arm indicated that he had smashed f after the machine plunged into the water and that both escaped through the open ing, but were unable to reach shore. Auto Is Found
 A trail of broken and bent bushes l leading from the road to the pond led 10 the finding of the submerged
 automobile. Police were uncertain
 whether the car had failed to make
 turn in the highway and had
 plunged through the bushes and 1 into the pond. but were more in clined to believe that the driver had 1 turned in among the trees to park, i turning off the lights and motor and i setting the brake. The ground there slopes gently toward the water and the police believe the
 brake failed to hold and the car rolled down the incline before
 Thomas could stop it.
