CRIME STUDY
By GEORGE r. HOLMES

KAY VEzUNOE H. NNVAANaAIfS
Given unlimited scope and all the
time in the world. President
Hoover's Law Enforcement Commits
sion squared away today to the
monumental task Of determining
what makes the American people
so Iawless. and how to remedy it.
It will be a year. more likely
two years. and perhaps even
longer before the commission will
attempt to report verdict. Hear
ings are to be held. witnesses ex.
amined. expert opinions sought.
masses of statistics digested. records
gone into. At the end. voluni-
nous report perhaps several reports.
if the 10 men and one woman COM
prislng the commission are unable
to agree.
The spectre of prohibition and
what part 1t has played in con-
tributing to the eyer-expanding
crime record of the nation viii
stalk the committees sessions.
however much the fact may be de-
plored and however much indi-
yiduaI members may desire to min.
imize it.
Direct Mention Avoided
Both President Hoover and Chair.
man George w. Wickersham care.
fully avoided direct mention OF
prohibition in their exchange q
addresses. but the chairman later
asserted that the relation Of pro
hibition to crime most certainly
would be considered and reported
upon. He thought 1t highly i'm.
probable" however, that the com
mission would recommend modifi.
cation although he considered that
it has q right to do so should II be
found that reform in this field Il
desirable.
.Th were two striking and sig
nificant utterances in Mr.. Hoover
remarks to the commission. and
Chairman Wickersham q reply.
The President said:
TT is my hope that the commits
sion shall secure an accurate deter
mination OF fact and cause, follow
ing them with constructive. cour
ageons conclusions which will brinf
public understanding and commant
public support of its solutions.
