MITCHELL PLANS
 DRIVE ON LIQUOR
Hopes to Shift Some Of Work to
 State Courts and JailS

Washington. May r UP)-The states will be called on by Attorney General Mitchell 10 assume a larger share in trying and imprisoning pro- hibitlon law Niolators, it was learn cd today.
 Crowded federal pcnitcntiaries. held responsible for many late riots. and the congested dockets Of fed cral courts have forced this move.
 Mitchell, 1t was learned, will seek to have the states try prohibition offenders under their oH'n laws where that is possible. In states that nave no dry legislation their nui- sance laws may he invoked.
 Jail Crowding Serious
 Congestion in the federal iails, which are now housing nearly three times the number of inmates they were intended 10 accommodate. makes 1t extremely difficult for the federal government to care for many additional prohibition prison- CTS.
 The doCkets Of federal courts are crowded with 20,o00 dry cases. This condition causes lengthy delays in obtaining trial Of federal dry offen- ders and is a primary incentive of the effort to place more responsi- blljty on state courts.
 The senate late yesterday passed 2. bill providing for two new federal nltentiarles-one west of the Mis- sisslppi and another in the north east Even with these. however. Mitchell said crowding would still remain 8. pressing problem. The ex- istlns Overflow of prisoners could almost fill the new prisons. Mitchell said. There are now 12.oQ0 prisoners in federal institutions. Of which moro than 5000 are prohibition law violators. An additional 13,n0o fed oral prisoners are in county institu- tlons. Three-fourths are believed to be dry offenders.
 Dry Probe Planned
 Searching examination Of the rec ord Of prohibition administrator throughout the country. similar 10 the nationwide investigation of L. :. district attorneys, is also a part of MitChelrs program. It is planned 70 retain only those dry adminis- rators whose records are fawless and who show outstanding efficiency.
