that extradition was refused to the

In its more extended sense the

that Mellon has gone just as far on
prohibition enforcement as his su-
periors wanted him to go and I DO
not believe ne is now standing in
the way OF effective prohibition en-
forcement.'
Still Follows Orders
The dry worker informed Senator
Caraway he yet believed Mellon
went just as far as those associated
