CRIME COMMISSION SHUNS
JUDGMENT OF PROHIBITION
Wickersham Asserts Group Is Concerned
Only With Enforcement and Whether
It Will Be Possible.

amendment and the laws, If We were
convinced that prohibition could not be
enforced, we ought to say so, and that
If we we're convinced that 1t was very
problematical as to whether 1t could be
enforced, we ought to say so.
But, at the same time, up to the
present the commission has proceeded
on the theory that our job was to see
whether the eighteenth amendment was
being adequately and efficiently en-
forced, whether any change in the law
was desirable, and what changes, If any,
in the laws would best bring about the
maximum enforcement OF the provisions
of the eighteenth amendment"
He predicted the commissions work
would be concluded in about year.
Studies are now being made OF the
prison system, the cost and cause OF
crime, juvenile delinquency, police or
CARNATIONS and management, prosecu-
ton, lawlessness of government officials,
and the value of State and municipal
crime surveys.
Wickersham disapproved the bill to
authorize an appropriation of 81 900, 900
for world surveys, of prohibition legis-
lation, introduced by Representative
Andrew, Republican, Massachusetts.
I'VE have pretty full information
now in our possession as to what they
are doing In other countries" he said,
but the trouble is, not one of them,
with the exception of two provinces in
Canada, has been continuously in oper-
alton for five years"

OLD BELL MANSION
BEING DEMOLISHED
Last Traces of Former Arts
t0Cratic House Are Re.
moved Today.

A house on Connecticut avenue Just
south of Dupont Circle, which all the
world knew IS years ago, was reduced
to dust today as workmen removed the
few bricks remaining in the fine old
place that housed the family of the
great inventor, Alexander Graham Bell
The man who gave the world the tele-
phone lived In the three-story brick
house in the middle of the 1900 block
Of Connecticut avenue for 80 years.
During the years when he was &C
claimed the world over for his bene-
factions to humankind, he and his wife
and their children lived quietly almost
in the shadow of the tree-lined circle.
DR.. Bell died there in 1922.
The old house has not been occupied
since 1922. The demolition of the
building is a token of the Capitals
development, for only one dwelling
house remains now in block that a
quarter of a century ago was fash
ionable, exclusive section for prominent
residents.
Built in 1892.
The three-story structure Of rather
severe lines was erected at the instance
of DR.. and Mrs. Bell in 1892. Horn
blower g. Marshall, the well known
architectural firm. designed the house.
When Dr. and Mrs. Bell moved in 1t
was one of the show places OF the
period and for many years was
gathering place for distinguished men
and women. The house stood several
feet above the Connecticut avenue level,
front steps rising sharply to an en-
tranceway which gave little hint OF the
commodious quarters.
A feature of the construction was the
location Of the courtyard In the rear,
the ARRANGEMENT being such that the
two daughters of DR.. and Mrs. Bell
who maintained residences adjoining
and a block away on Eighteenth street,
might visit In all three houses without
passing from the intimacy Of the family
establishment.
The late William Howard Taft was
entertained there when he was gov
ernor general of the Philippines anc
virtually every political and social
leader in Washington and distinguished
visitors from all over the world knew
the hospitality of the Bell home. Rep
resentative Joe Cannon, the famous
Speaker, was frequent guest.
Surrounded by Business.
At the time of DR.. Bells death the
property passed to daughter, Mrs
Gilbert Grosvenor, who Is the wife of
the president Of the National Geo
graphic Society.
DR.. Grosvenor in commenting on the
changes that have taken place in the
neighborhood said today that the prop
erty would be sold and that in the
meantime it had been decided to de-
moliSh the building. 1t was skeleton,
everything of sentimental value having
been removed long since.
Business has pushed out Connecticut
avenue past the Bell property on the
other side of the street. An antique
shop and q tea room, modern in every
respect, Notwithstanding the antiques,
stand in the shadow of what in other
years was fine residence quite removed
from the business district. The British
embassy is near, but the representatives
of Great Britain are vacating the build
ing for larger quarters on Massachu-
sets avenue.

attempts Ito cause the commission to
take up the study of the problem of

Failing in that" the chairman con-

the impression in the minds of the
country that such was the study which
the commission was carrying on"
Conceding that there has been a diff
