HOOVER ID STRESS SEVERAL ISSUES
Will Not Center Efforts on
 Prohibition Question

Washington, July 8 R-There are indications that Secretary Hoo, CT intends to stress other issues than prohibition in the early days of hls campaign for the presidency. At his headquarters here occasion has been taken to deplore the plac- ing of any emphasis upon the wet dry question at this time and pre- dictions have been made that the nominee. while declaring for strict enforcement, will not al any early date specifically oppose the stand of Gov. Smith for fundamental changes in the provisions of the prohibition laws.
 Whatever he may say on this sub iect in his speech accepting the nom- ination has not yet been put into words and his friends say. will not be for many days.
 His duties as head Of the com merCe department have drawn MT. Hoover's attention temporarily from the preparation Of his acceptance address. The departments budget for the fiscal year l9g9-l9So has taken its place and in consequence interviews with departmental off cials have displaced extended politi- cal conferences.
 However, Carml Thompson. who led the fight against Hoover Tn the Ohio primaries. dropped in yester-
 day to pledge his support and pre- dict that the commerce secretary
 would carry his state in the Noyem- | Der election.

PLAN SHAKE.UP IN
 NEW YORK POLICE
Will Try to Stop Wave of Bandiry

New York. July Upp-A shake-up in the New York police department appeared imminent today as detect ives vainly sought those responsible for the latest of series of gang slayings.
 Police Commissioner Warren was reluctant to discuss the shakeup humors. but admitted he was dis satisfied with the detective bureau and that there would be some "quick changes"
 The net result of a days intense police activity appeared to be the holding for questioning Of Lottie May Dobson, 23 years old, in con- nection with the bombing to death Sunday night of Benjamin kano- witz, to the starter of whose auto mobile a stick of dynamite had been attached.
 The girl, who was preparing to depart from her rooming house in West S6th street when taken into custody, was said by the police to have been a close friend of kano- witz. They refused to reveal what, if anything. they learned from her. The Kanowjtz staying. however, was only one of three gang slayings in the last two weeks.
 There apparently were no clues developed in the machine gun slay- ing also on Sunday. of Frankie Uale, Brooklyn's philanthropic gangster, and the Broadway killing two weeks ago of Edwin Jerge, reputed drug peddler. -.
 X silver coffin, valued at Si5,t % and said to be a duplicate of the one in which Dion O'Banion. Chicago gangster, was buried, has been pre- pared for Uale's body, which has been claimed by Mrs. Mary Uale who last June was granted an interlocu- tory divorce decree.
 A dispute threatened for a time between the claims of Mrs. Mary Cale and Mrs. Lucita tale who said she married Uale in civil ceremony year ago. Mutual friends. however, effected an adjustment.
