PLAN To FIGHT.
DRY CRAFT

Congressional drys are through
passing prohibition enforcement laws
and have a new goal-a campaign to
eliminate politics and graft from the
Federal machinery.
This was the declaration today of
Representative Gale II. Stalker (R.l
of New York. co-author of the dras-
tice Jones-Stalker law, fixing a max
mum sentence of five years in prison
and $4,000 fine for first offenders.
The Department of Justice and
the Treasury Department may both
feel the power of the drys in their
determined drive to end the wide
spread criticism of enforcement.
All Law Needed.
az believe we have all the law we
require for enforcement of the Eigh-
teenth Amendment and Nolstead
Act" said Stalker. What we want
to do is to eliminate graft and poll
tics from it's administration.
This can be done, too, If Off
Gals of the Attorney Gerenafs Of
flee and the Treasury Department
will ignore the political side of the
question. -,
1--WE are supposed to have civil
service regula tons which remove
all prohibition administrators and
agents from the realm of politics,
but the politicians refused to ac-
accept it.
Too Much Politics
"There's too much meddling by
politicians not in sympathy with
the law. The politicians exercise
their hand in obtaining the transfer
of agents and influencing the
agents when they get on the job
Many of these politicians are peo-
pie whom the Administrator
usually relies on for advice in
local matters. l think Seymour
Lowman, Assistant Secretary in
charge of Treasury activities, is
doing a fine job in the face of
enormous difficulties.
The only possible new legislation
in Stalker's opinion, will be entirely
administrative, dealing with transfer
of dry activities from the Treasury
opposes that.
at seems to me that before the
Department of Justice takes on any
work it ought to get its own house
in order. The Attorney General
now Is doing some commendable
work cleaning up the department
and obtaining more efficient off
GERS" he said.
With some of the furore raised
over the Jones-Stalker "five-and'
ten-law". now ended, Stalker de-
clared the authors of the act are
highly satisfied with the way it is
working out. He asserted that il
is having a depressing effect on the
bootlegging industry.
