DRY LAW CASES
SHOW GAIN

A rosy picture, showing dry law
enforcement was made more ef-
fective since he took office
slightly more than year ago,
was painted yesterday by Prohi-
bition Director Amos w, w.
Woodcock.
Statistics showing an upward
swing in the number of prohibi-
ton cases reaching the Federal
courts during the last six months
were marshaled by Mr.. WoOdcock
IN support of his conteption that
the enlarged Federal prohibition
machine is functioning smoothly.
In January. Mr.. Woodcock's fig
ures show, 4,5O0 cases reached
court; in February, 4,191; in
March, 5,273; III April, 1868; in
May. 5,463, and in June, 6,834.
The dry force now numbers
1000 agents, in addition to from
200 to 800 special investigators
provided by Congress at the di-
rector'S request.
Increases in the average Jail
sentences imposed in liquor cases
and higher proportion of Jail
terms to fines were cited by MIR.
WOOdcOck as evidence of progress
In enforcement.
If the States would give gen
eral cooperation to the Federal
Government, the situation would
be completely under control, he
said, This cooperation is not
Forthcoming in every instance, but
even that phase of the matter is
rapidly clearing, according to him.
