The civil service commission calmly
replies that it has only followed it's
usual procedure and that it will con-
tinue to do so. Oral examination
of the 4,5Oo survivors, including only
500 prohibition jobholders, who are
candidates for 1000 agent jobs, are
proceeding.
A rigid character examination will
follow. Then. if in some enforcement
districts there aren't enough eligibles
sifted from the rest, re-examination
will be held in those districts.
But meanwhile, the civil service

Some of the smarter grafters in
the service who may have passed the
first two tests may have trouble when
their records are scrutinized. A man
who has been in the enforcement
machinery for several years recently
told this writer:
IT estimate that all but about 2
per cent of the agents are chiseling
(grafting). The prohibition agent
who can't make $4,000 year if
he desires is dub. Who thinks
that most of these fellows go to work

once and may even be necessary
before enforcement can become hon
eStly effective.
Prohibition Commissioner Doran,
finding nearly rs per cent of his
1000 prohibition agents disqualified
by simple mental written civil service
examinations and with perhaps 10 or
Is per cent more almost sure to
follow, has shouted for help and
predicted a collapse OF enforcement
unless he can keep his men. The
Anti Saloon league has been worrying.
The plain truth is that no one
had ever suspected that prohibition
agents were so dumb.

sonnet as is demanded, there will be
no assurance of an intelligent, COM

politicians who regard prohibition
enforcement as the most lucrative
section in the national patronage
orchard have shared Doran's dismay,
for most of the present agents are
connected with some political ma
chine.
In eight years, some 1900 prohibi-
ton agents have been fired and
between 800 and 700 prosecuted in
the courts. OF the current crop of

present row between the prohibition
bureau and the civil service commits
sion over whether present enforce

is important to remember that the
service was put on a competitive
merit basis only after congress, the
bureau, the Anti-Saloon league and
nearly everyone else had agreed that
prohibition enforcement was a ma
tional scandal which must be cleaned
up.
So, today, the great issue is
whether there is to be more and

REVISION OF PARIS PACT
URGED BY DR.. H0ETSCH

DR.. Otto Hoetsch, member of the
foreign affairs committee Of the German
Reichstag. In an address last night at
the Georgetown School Of Foreign
Service, declared that the work OF
organizing peace cannot succeed until
Europe reaches q peaceful revision of
the Paris treaties.
Since the signing OF the Dawes plan
and the Locarno pact, DR.. Hoetsch
said that position of equality among
nations which Germany should occupy
has been denied her.
For the sake Of European peace,
Germany should be placed on equal
terms" he added. Unequal treaties
are, in Europe as in China, serious
danger to peace.
Germany has embraced the Kellogg
proposal without reservation and at the
same time is looking with disfavor on
the secret agreement reached by Eng
land and France on disarmament. Such
secret treaties and negotiations served
