TO STUDY AVAILABLE DATA

Washington, June 6.-(Fl-Secre-
tary Mellon was the first high govern
ment official to present his views on
Americas crime and lawlessness
problems today before President Hoo
ver's national commission on law OBJ
servance and enforcement.
The commission called number of
government officials to present their
views. The names of the other off,
cials were not disclosed.
While the session was behind
closed doors. Mr.. Mellon was UNDER
stood to have mainly presented his
views on the enforcement of the pro-
hibition and narcotic laws which come
under the jurisdiction Of the treasury
department.
Called for its second series of
meetings since its organization. it
had a ninc-room suite of offices in
a building near the department of
justice at its disposal, and scores
Of government surveys and stats
tical studies and hundreds of letters
from all parts of the country propos-
ing various plans for the curbing of
lawlessness were ready for its con-
sideration. Conferences with a num-
Der Of government officials inter
cstcd in its problems also had been
arranged.
The commission proposed as one
of it's first steps in the formulation
Of it's inquiry into crime causes and
lawlessncss to make an exhaustive
study Of all available data bearing
upon those subjects which it can
obtain from governmental and other
agencies.
The deluge of letters and tele-
grams which has been descending
daily upon the commission has con-
tanned many ''crank" or nut" sug-
gcstions for law enforcement. But
on the other hand, commission Off
cials declared number Of valuable
suggestions had Lccn offered by pri-
vate citizens in this way
While prohibition is one of the
uppermost problems before the COM
mission, its survey is not to be CEN
tered OH any single source Of crime
or lawlessness, according to its men,
bers the sale of narcotics, the in
crease Of murders and robberies in
large cities, and sociological prob
lens brought about by large GRIM
inal groups, are among other situa-
tions to be investigated.
The commission is expected to de-
eide during it's meetings, which prob
ably will last until the end of the
week, on the question whether to
conduct public hearings in the larger
cities of the country.
