NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 8.-The
New Orleans city commission today
announced tentative acceptance of
a plan to break a protracted street
car strike here by employing the
strikers to operate busses, a radical
change in transportation here.
Thomas D. Dawkins, Shreveport
public safety commissioner, submit
ted the plan at meeting Wednes-
day and the commission announced
in an open letter today its tentative
acceptance, subject to final approval
and issuance of a franchise.
Dawkins proposed to operate from
$50 to 500 double-de buses on
a fare of 10 cents to any part Of
the city under a permit Of not less
than twenty years. The 1900 men
now out on strike for higher wages
and shorter hours would be en-
ployed to man the bus fleet.
What, if any, effect the plan
would have on the street car fran
chise was not Immediately clear.
officials of Public Service, Inc,
operators of the street car line now
under strike, declined to comment.

If thought that enforcement OF
the prohibition law necessarily
would entail continued killing and
other acts of violence, and the out
rage of private rights of persons
and property, I unqualifledly would
demand the repeal of the eighteenth
amendment and the laws enacted
hereunder.
I condemn as atrocious, wholly
unwarranted, and entirely unneces-
sary some of the killing by prohi-
bition agents. But I know that
there are equally shocking cases OF
gangsters' attacks on agents, which
if as widely known will influence
the fair minded people not to be
too hasty in lavishing sympathy on
violators of the law who get
wounded in the course of arrest.
AS sample of how the bootleg
ger deals with citizens who stand
in his way, this touching letter to
me stands as mute evidence:
Dear Madam: understand that
my husband wrote to you some

DRY AGENT IN
TEXAS KILLING
Doran Says Reports Show
Discharge of Gun Was
Accidental.

BIZ UHtted Press
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-Prohi-
bition Commissioner Doran said to-
day a final report from Deputy
Commissioner Jackson showed the
shooting of Tom Chandler at Poteet,
Tex, by Prohibition Agent Charles
Stevens was accidental.
while I was somewhat dubious
as to Stevens first statement that
Chandler was shot when the agent
slipped and fell, causing rife I'M
der his arm to be discharged, an
other federal agent, town mar
shal, and a constable, the latter two
municipal officers, substantiated his
version in full" Doran said.
..SteYenS has reputation of be-
Ing careful officer. He has been
in the service long time with an
excellent record. The report will be
accepted as accurate"
Doran said no indictment has been
returned against Stevens, but if the
agent is held for trial the case will
be transferred to federal court.
The fatal shooting of Chandler
took place when agents were search
ing for a still. The Texas farmer
was on his front porch when Ste
vens fell. Doran said it was highly
improbable Stevens would have shot
Chandler in cold blood.

He charged that Miss Hix
had given him a sandwich
which may have contained ex-
citants as they drove to the
New York Central rifle range
the night of the murder. She
had told him, he said, that she
also had eaten one.
"Did you intend to kill
her9" he was asked.
Heaven, mol" he answered.
"She was a good friend of mine
and I never would have done it."
Telling of their last automobile
ride, he said they reached the rifle
range about 9 p. m. and drove in,
parking about 100 feet from the
road.
He explained the presence of a
mechanics hammer with which Miss
Hix was beaten; so handy in the car,
by saying he had put it and other
tools into the car at his Office to
take home for some work to be done
there.
Immediately upon parking their
love-making began. Then he sug-
gested they leave but she refused.

fed. "Then she said I couldn't go
