BootIegger War.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Sept. 8.-Differences of
rival bootleggers were blamed by
police today for explosions which
killed three men and destroyed two
buildings in which stills were be-
lieyed to have been operating.
Fires followed both explosions
One blast, in the vicinity of Mercy
Hospital, broke windows of the in
Stitution and caused so much I'M
easiness among patients that outside
physicians and nurses were called to
assist the regular staff in quieting
them.
One man was seriously injured
and two flremen were hurt.
The first explosion came in a ga
rage in the rear of the hospital. A
truck driven into an alley shortly
before was reduced to a mass Of
twisted steel and the driver killed.
He was not identified.
Louis Kramer, another truck
driver, was blown through the wind
shield of his machine and seriously
injured.
Two men were killed in an explo-
sion and fire at building occupied
by a paint company less than an
hour after the first blast. One man
was dead when police arrived. An
other, Joseph Bangora, died in a
hospital.

U. S. HAS NO
AUTHORITY TO
HALT FLIGHTS
Growing Public DisapprovaI
Shared, However, by
Naval Chiefs.
BY HERBERT LITTLE


WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.-Grow-
ing public disapproval of ocean
flights by land planes found re-
Spouse today among Government
officials, but circumstances and lack
Of authority apparently will block
any attempt to stop three pending
American flights of this type.
The apparently tragic end OF
Old Glory in mid-Atlantic, the Sir
John Carvings ambitious attempt to
reach England from Canada, the
three long and dangerous Pacific
jumps Of the Schlee- Brock round
world route, coupled with recent air
tragedies, brought general reaction
here against what some termed
"cheapenlng Of life"
Navy leaders, however, said they
could do nothing in the private fly
ing venture of Schlee and Brock,
and contemplate no action to pre-
vent Lieut.. L. w. Curtin from act
ing as navigator for Capt. Rene
Fonck on his projected New York
to-Paris or Rome flight, or to halt
the proposed Elder New York-Paris
flight.
Acting Secretary of the Navy T.
Douglas Robinson, Admiral E. w
Eberle, chief of naval operations,
and Rear Admiral w. A. Moffett,
Navy aeronautics chief, agreed land
planes were not practicable for
ocean flights.

Mellon Finds New Storm to
QueII as Result of Low
man Speeches.
BY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.--SecreS
tary Mellon has returned to his
desk to find the prohibition guess
ton raging about his head in a new
form, as the result of the speech
making campaign against the vets
recently undertaken by Seymour
Lowman, installed as Federal dry
chief just before the treasury head
went to Europe.
Faced with protests against Lows
mans criticism of wet State officials
and the dry czar's request that citir
zens inform him of prohibition vioa
lations in their neighborhoods, MelS
Ion said he would take up both
questions with the enforcement
officer at the first opportunity.
Though he was not acquainted
with details Of Loman's speech and
suggestions, Mellon seemed to feel
that enforcement was tending to fall
into ways which he frowned on
when Lincoln G. Andrews and Roy
A. Haynes were running the prohi~
bition bureau
Combines All Faults
Andrews was subjected to criticism
because of his resort to undercover
agents and government blind tigers,
while HAYNES was criticised by his
superiors because of his seeming be-
lief that chautauqua speeches were
an effective method of enforcing tho
law.
Some critics have declared that
Lowman, by existing the public as
volunteer shoppers" and assailing
Governors who oppose TIE dry laws
combines the faults of his predecess
sors
The situation is regarded as par~
ticularly acute by those G.. o. p.
politicians who want the whole oues~
ton Of Federal enforcement soft%
pedaled because of the approach Of
presidential campaign.
Representative Protests
Representative John j. Boylar1
Of New York. in a letter to Mellon,
protested against what he called
Lowman's gross misuse of his Fed
eral position to aim insults not only
at Governor Smith. but also at the
people of the State"

ularly upset. They think Lowman's
frequent reference to Smith are
