Borah Leads Attack
On Enforcement
System

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2s-tP-
Fresh outbreaks Of prohibition en-
forcement startled washington to-
night with senate drys splitting
asunder and senator Borah Of
Idaho, charging in a new attack
that practically open SALONS are
running in the jurisdiction OF
district attorney after district ab-
torney in this country"
The Idahoan jumped into the
dispute again after two admins
tration dry leaders-Senators Jones,
OF Washington, and Capper, OF
Kansas--issued statements assuring
far reaching action by president
Hoover in dry enforcement In an
appeal to the prohibitionists to
stick together and help him.
The cry Stand by the President
has nothing to do with this ques-
tion," thundered Borah =. word
reached him Of the appeal Of the
other republican drys, and the as
surance by senator Jones that The
President will remove quickly any
man in a responsible position who
he is convinced Is not doing his
duty"
Time to Speak Out
Senator Borah said that Il pres
ume, Of course, that the President
wants clean and efficient service,
and I say to those senators that
we have not got that at the pres
ent time.
Washing your hands with sight
less soap in the presence of the
President will not bring effective
service" he continued. 1T Is nee
eSSary to sta, the facts and they
are going to be stated.
II assert that the permit system
itself as It Is bin carried on is
scandal-that Is Is being used In
such a way 70 demoralize the whole

that the law enforcement depart
ment Is responsible for this. ! fur

When say this, I do not mean
simply New York or Chicago. /
mean 70 state a condition which
prevails throughout the country.

catch every bootlegger. But the

disregard Of the law, day after day
and month after month, with no ef-
