ADMINISTRATOR
IS DUE FOR Ak

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 QP-For the
present, at least, Roy G. Lyle will
continue as prohibition administrator,
for Washington, Oregon and Alaska
Assistant Secretary Lowman of the
treasury, in charge Of prohibition en-
forcement, announced today that Lyle
would return to his post awaiting
the outcome of the regular civil serv-
ice appointments" 1t was reiterated
by treasury officials, however, that
he probably would be supplahted
soon.
Lyle was summoned to Washington
two weeks ago to explain reported
unsatisfactory conditions in his dis
trict.
In announcing that nyle's status
would be held more or less in abey-
ance, LoWman also made known that
he had suspended Alfred M. Hubbard
and Richard L. Fryant, prohibition
agents under Lyle, from duty and
pay for irregularities in connection
with the smuggling of liquor"
The exact nature of the charges
against them was not made public.

favorably with those prevailing in the

Women's garments, dresses and
