 Border Patrol Forces

Washington, April 20 R>-Ap- proval of the administration plan for unifcation of border patrol under the coast guard was given to- day before a house commerce sub committee by Rear Admiral Freder- icl c, Billiard, commandant of the coast guard and Assistant Secretary White of the labor department.
 At the same time Representative Pittenger. republican, Minnesota, whose district borders on Canada, protested vigorously against legisla- tion that would require citizens crossing the border on legitimate business to do so only at designated ports of entry.

Albany N. Y, Sept. 23 R"Re- publican state leaders gathered here today for the party convention Thursday and Friday with the promise of the state chairman, Will liam J. Maier, that the national ad- fninistration would not seek to dic- tate the platform on the prohibition issue.
 And unofficially it was reporte l there was less danger of a strong dry third party ticket being put in the field if wet were named for governor. The Anti-Saloon League was said to be cool toward the an- ppunced determination of the Wo- mems Christian Temperance Union to enter a dry candidate if the re- publicans were not dry enough.
 MT. Maier's statement followed re- ports that sources close to President Hoover had informed leaders a dry plank would be preferable to one asking repeal.
