MITCHELL BARS
VETS FROM JOBS
IN DRY REGIME
Drinking Handicap to All
Seeking Posts, Warning
of New Chief.

BIZ ScriDps-HOiodrd NetoSDaDeT Alliance
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.-Drink-
erS and opponents of the principle
Of prohibition will not be trusted
with enforcement or prosecution of
the dry laws under a rule laid down
today by Attorney General Mitchell,
who will become dry car under the
presidential program now before
congress.
Though Mitchell said he did not
want fanatics" in the service, his
dictum will affect all individuals
connected with the federal courts
from judges and district attorneys to
bailiffS.
When congress transfers the pro-
hibition unit from the treasury to
the department of justice it will in
clude the dry army from admins
traitors down to chemists, the cleri-
cal force and field agents. Such a
policy long has been demanded by
professional prohibitionistS.
II have not made any hard and
fast rule on the subject" said Mitch
ell, in his letter to an unnamed
critic in congress, "and there are
many matters respecting a mans
ability and personal qualifications
that have to be considered, but I
believe that no man who makes a
practice of drinking, or who has
definite and pronounced views in
opposition to prohibition, belongs,
during this administration, in any
post having directly to do with the
prosecution of cases under the ma
tional prohibition act.
It seems to me that such men had
better seek positions in some other
branch of the government or a pri-
vate occupation.
81 have not made any b1are of
trumpets about this matter, but !
am not at all reluctant to have it
known among those in this depart
ment that the habitual use of liquor
and opposition to prohibition are
very definite handicaps to appoint
ment or reappointment in this
service"
Federal attorneys, assistants, mar
shals and deputy marShals, Mitchell
declared, must not drink under any
circumstances" In the attorney
generals opinion, pre-war liquor
stocks are about consumed, and the
presumption would be that any of
these officials found using liquor
had obtained it from illicit sources. "
An office-holder's views, Mitchell
wrote, bears ION the probable eff
cheney of the candidate in the prose-
cution of prohibition cases."

BILL THOMPSON
ADMITS CHICAGO
is FLAT BROKE
Turns Money Problems of
City Over to State
Legislature.
BY MERTON T. AKERS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO, Jan. 29.-Big Bill
Thompson, Chicago's cowboy-Yale
graduate mayor, handed the city'S
financial tangle to the state legis-
lature today, admitting, in effect,
that 1t had grown too large for his
administration.
Thompson, who likes to be known
as Big Bill, the builder and an
enemy of King George, admitted
publicly, and for the first time, IN
statement that the city is broke and
is lettering on the brink of financial
disaster.
AS a remedy and the only hope
for relief for the thousands of city
employees who are existing on loan
shark money, the mayor demanded
that the legislature be called into
special session and laws passed to
lift the city from its morass of al
most $30O,000,O00 debt, debt that
rolls up like SNOWFALL at the rate
of almost $4,000 day.
The mayors statement apparently
came after considerable pressure
for definite stand had been exerted
by citizens.

Had Advanced Far

II tends to confirm several impor-
tant theories. Some scientists now
believe that the human stem is root
ed in the early part of the age OF
mammals. The Peiping man lived
in the very beginning of the ice age.
Already at that remote period ne
had advanced far along the road
of human development. That means
that the ancestral stock from which
he sprang had started long ago. es-
timated to have begun 100000
years ago.
The Peiping man is a long way
from being the missing link The
remote progenitOrS of man will be
found in much older strata. The
exact place is uncertain, but I am
convinced that it will be somewhere
on the Asiatic plateau.
