HOOVER DENIES
PLAN FOR u. S.
DRIVE ON GANGS
Suggestion Reflection on
States Sovereignty,
Says President.
By United Press

By bnttcG Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Sugges-
lions that the federal government
should begin campaign to curb
local racketeering were frowned
upon today by President Hoover.
In q statement made to the semi
weekly press conference the Presi-
dent described such suggestions as
"a reflection on the sovereignty and
stamina of state governments"
President Hoover also said that
the United States does not intend
to enter into any trade conflicts
with Russia or with any other ma
ton.
He was commenting upon the
recent notice given by the treasury
department that it would bar con-
vict made goods from this country
under the new customs law.
Revision of the immigration law
to provide more 'selectivity and
fexibility" is favored by the Pres
ident, he announced.
Mr.. Hoover said the recent re-
strictive measures he placed in eff
feet against entry of immigrants
who might become public charges
were working out effectively.
Two things are needed now to di-
minish criminal activities in severa
large localities, Mr.. Hoover said, re-
ferring to the racketeering problem
The first is an awakening of civic
governments which have failed to
protect citizens against crime. The
second is Il support for those organ
izations endeavoring to suppress
racketeering.
There is no intention on the part
of the federal government of spon-
soring any general laws to assume
the responsibility of local enforce
ment officials in places where en-
forcement is lax, the President said
The report that I am proposing
to congress any extension of the
federal criminal laws to cover rack
eteering is untrue, Mr.. Hoover said.
Every single state has amply laws
that cover such crinlinality.
What is needed is the enforce
nent Of those laws and not more
laws.
