'LOWMAN SILENT ON POLICY.
Says, However, He VIII Try tO
Garry Out Law.

ELMIRA, n. Y, May 21 (P).-Sey-
mour Lowman. informed last night of
his appointment to succeed Lincoln
G. Andrews as Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury, remarked that his 'in-
terest in law enforcement is well
known" but declined to make any dec
laration Of policy regarding his new
post. His record as a State Senator
and lieutenant governor show him a
pronounced dry adherent.
Congress has definitely fixed the
policy of law enforcement with re-
spect to the eighteenth amendment" ="
he said, II will endeavor to carry
out that mandate to the best of my
ability. 1t is big job, but great
progress has been made under Gen.
Andrews His handling OF the coast
patrol has been very effective. Rum
row has been routed. With the close
cooperation of foreign governments
illegal importation Of liquor will soon
stop.
''I hope to be able to accomplish
things In a reasonable and construc.
tive manner"
It is a coincidence that Gen. An
drews and Lowman were boyhood
friends. Gen. Andrews was born on a
farm in Seneca County, n. Y, not
far from Hector, about 80 miles from
the birthplace of Mr.. Lowman, in
Chemung County. The retiring Sec
retary was appointed to West Point
from Mr.. Lowman's congressional dis

AIR MAIL SERVICE
MAY Be EXTENDED
Ruling by McCarI Permits
Fee 'cr Lines Over
Present 1utes.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated ffess.
Possibility that the air mail service
may be extended to additional cities
is forecast in an opinion of Controller
General McCarl by which Postmaster
General New may designate additional
stops on present contract routes with
in the 1.000-n1ile contract rates limit
to be served by feeder lines without
further additional advertising for bids.
The controller general made the
ruling in connection with the New
York Atlanta Air Mail Service. which
will begin operation this Summer. He
informed the postmaster general that
Asheyille, N. c.. might be added to the
route by a feeder line from Spartan
burg s. c.
Postal officials see in the ruling a
means of extending service to more
cities on certain routes, where the con-
tractor Is willing to undertake service
and the cities guarantee sufficient air
main to warrant extension. Under
the ruling Detroit could be added to
the present transcontinental and over
night New York-Chicago service by a
feeder line.
Extension of the Chicago Dallas Fort
Worth route to Laredo, Tex, on the
Mexican border, and to Houston and
Galveston. which is being discussed
today at Wichita Falls, Tex, by AS
siitant Postmaster General Glover,
with Texas cities, would not come
within the ruling, but would require
additional contracts.
