ENJOYS LIQUOR
PROBE IS URGED
Representative SChafer Calls
Diplomats Liquor
Law Violation.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated PreSS.
Representative Schafer, Republican,
Wisconsin, intends to ask a committee
Of the next Congress to determine why
Government are permitting foreign rep
resentatives to violate the eighteenth
amendment"
Referring to incidents related to the
recent raid by liquor thieves on the Sal
vadorean legation, Schafer wrote to
Secretary StimSon today that 1T ap-
pears indefensible for. officials of the
Government to permit violations Of the
prohibition law" by diplomats.
Schafer, q Wisconsin anti-prohibi-
ZIONIST. was q Republican member of
the last House Expenditure Committee.
and said in statement today he would
offer q motion to that committee at its
first meeting providing for thorough
Investigation OF the embassy and lega-
ton liquor question"
Instead Of granting 24-hour police pro-
lection for privately owned beverages, +"
the -prohibitionist asserted, ''it
would seem more appropriate for law
enforcement officers to apprehend and
prosecute the felons and confiscate
their illegal stocks"
Diplomats Violate Law.
In the letter to Stimsbh = Schafer re-
Quested a report on statutes under
which diplomatic, liquor is admitted.
1t Is his recollection, he said. that the
Government has been permitting lega-
lions and embassies to violate the
mandatory provisions of the eighteenth
amendment and laws enacted there
under by reason of a statute enacted
many years before the eighteenth
amendment was incorporated in the
Constitution"
Schafer told the Secretary Of State
he could see no reason to allow diplo-
mats Ito transport prohibited liquor by
truckloads and at the same time send
O tax-paying American citizen to jail
for five years and brand him as q
felon for transporting one pint of
beverage, or 4 per cent good, whole
some beer"
He added: mo wonder the people of
America are showing disreSpect for law
and order when these conditions are
permitted to exist"
In the statement, Schafer said he
would propose that the House Commit
tee also ascertain the amount Of dip
lomatic' liquor diverted to non-diplo-
matte channels"
state Department officials said In
veStiRation of the raid on the Saliva
dorean legation, when II cases Of liquor
were stolen, and DR.. Carlos Leiva,
charge d'afYaires, was hurt In a scuffie
with q robber, disclosed ample pro-
lection" was being given to the 81 en-
bassies and legations In the Capital
The legation announced last night
that no claim would be presented to

Definite plans to withdraw from pub
lie life we're announced yesterday by
Senator Halves. Democrat, of Missouri.
That Immediately stirred speculation
over the possible return to Washing
ton of the veteran former Senator
James A. Reed of the same State.
While no one here presumed to speak
for Reed, his friends were inclined to
the belief he would not seek return
to the Senate chamber, where for 10
years his persuasive oratory kept him
in the thick Of battle.
Reed, in standing for the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1923, de-
clined to seek reelection for a fourth
term to the Senate. It is the known
intention of his friends to advance him
again for the party's presidential nomi-
nation next year. and If he is induced
to re-enter politics it Is believed it will
be only in that race.
Senator Halves, in formally withdraw
ing from the Senate contest of 1882 in
his State, mentioned no other candi-
dates. He announced some time ago
a determination to leave public life.
Then he expected to head a game con-
servation movement, but he later an
nounced he would not do so.
He said he gave his formal notice
today in response to many suggestions
from his State that he change his mind
and again run.
IF I believed my nomination was
essential to Democratic success" said
the statement, this pressure might have
affected my judgment, but some man,
well qualified and able, will be nomi-
mated. cannot change my decision not
again to become a candidate

MITCHELL TO TALK
!. ON JUSTICE WORK
Attorney General viii Outline
Departments Problems
in Radio Forum.

The problems which have confronted
the Department of Justice during the
last two years and how they have been
met will be discussed by Attorney Cen
eral William D. Mitchell in the National
Radio Forum. arranged by The Star
and broadcast over the Nation wide
network Of the Columbia Broadcasting
System at $3.50 pm. tomorrow.
Since Attorney General Mitchell be-
came the head of the Department Of
Justice, the duty of detecting violations
of the national prohibition laws has
been turned over to that department.
The Federal Government, through the
Department Of Justice. has been called
upon to help clean up gangs in many
of the big cities Of the country. There
have been problems of prison reorgani-
cation and development, Of speeding up
the administration Of justice In both
criminal and civil cases and OF the en-
forcement and possible amendment OF
the antitrust laws.
It is expected that the Attorney Cen
eral in his address in the National
Radio Forum will deal with these mat
terS and give an accounting Of the work
done by the department. Furthermore.
he may be expected to give his viws Of
proposals for changes in the system OF
the enforcement of the Federal laws,
II any are deemed necessary.
More and more work has been imposed
upon the Department Of Justice and the
Federal courts by Congress In recent
years by the passage of laws dealing not
only with prohibition and narcotics, but
also with the regulation Of various bus
inesses and the imposition Of the in
come tax law. The Department Of Jus
tice today deals with many matters in
connection with the daily lives Of the
people in a manner which was not
dreamed of half century ago. The
head of the department, Mr.. Mitchell,
Is well qualified to discuss these acttvt-
ties.

by false hopes. have gone to swell the
ranks Of Socialism to return without
delay to the bosom Of the church which
they have done i'll to abandon.
He urges them to enroll themselves
among these groups of generous men
who, according to the principles given
by Leo XIII, are striving with every
nerve to establish on a sound basis
justice and charity in human society.
THE holy father then passes on to
indicate with greater precision the
remedies for present evils.
With keen insight he observes that
the root of the disorder, both in the
modern economic world in general and
IN Socialism, lies in men fixing their
eyes on earthly goods without heed of
God and of things eternal
The principal remedy, therefore,
must be applied to the root itself by
raising up mems hearts and minds to
God and filling them with nobler and
purer aspirations. To this end the
first urgent need is that men bend their
manners and to the establishment OF
the reign of justice by which the whole
social and economic order should be in
spired
Even then, however, a wide field will
always remain open for charity which
Is and VIII ever be the only true and
efhcacious bond which can unite all
men together and make them one single
family.
In this renovation Of society on the
basis OF the gospel and Of Christian
charity all men Of Good ought to con-
cur.
"On this account the holy father re-
Joices to see the initiative and zeal with
which not only the clergy, but also the
laity in large numbers and even many
young men filled with the spirit Of
Catholic action, are laboring in the va
rious countries, and he stimulates them
with fatherly encouragement to devote
themselves untiringly to this noble end.
For II a condition of affairs dia-
metrically opposed to Christian princi-
pies were to prevail. as many insist, the
disaster would be terrible. Strong as
she Is in Gods infallible promises, the
church does not fear for herself, but
she Tears for SO many of her sons, for
so many souls who would be lost.
All must work together, therefore,
Tor the common good in complete har-
mony and discipline, each at his own
post and in his own sphere seeking only
the interests OF God and the Kingdom
Of Jesus Christ.
With this paternal exhortation con-
cludes the important document which
the Holy Father offers as a precious
jubilee gift to his dear sons, and
through them. to the whole world,
wishing and imploring for all the bless
ings Of Heaven"

CONCERTED ACTION NEEDED.

BY Gable to The Star.
GENEVA, Switzerland, May IS
The German plan OF q customs union
with Austria as the first Of a number
OF such small attempts to create pan
Europe from below, and the BRAND plan
of extensive preference customs duties
gradually extending to concerted action
by the whole continent, are not mutually
exclusive but complimentary" German
Foreign Minister Julius Curtius de-
clared yesterday en- route by train from
Berlin to Geneva.
1T Is not a question Of our plan or
the BRAND plan, but our plan and the
BRAND plan. have always believed
that no single way leads to an organized
and prosperous Europe, but that all
must be trodden simultaneously.
Il should like to foresee q number
Of little groups In q regional customs
union, such as ours with Austria. This
would not really hurt the interests Of
the great foodstuh exporters like the
United States, Argentina and Canada.
Europe;s need for imported foodstuffs
is so great that Europes agricultural
countries cannot MI 1t.
There would be left q big field for
overseas countries to occupy. If they
were damaged in one way. they would
retrieve their losses by the fact that an
economically restored and prosperous
Europe would be a much better Gus
toner"
DR.. Curtius is going to defend the
German-Austrian customs union project
to the end. Yet he hopes sincerely that
the French and Germans viii waste no
time in sterile opposition.
IF had wished to be sarcastic" DR..
Curtius continued, II could have told
BRAND. HerTiot and other Frenchmen
who attacked our plan that two days
after 1t was announced numerous
French business men congratulated me
on taking the only step that would seri-
ously lead to European recovery.
There are important groups of French
people who would welcome q customs
union with us. I trust that they will
show readiness to begin studying the
problem"

mates say, M. BRAND expressed to them
belief that he had been betrayed at
Versailles by certain members Of the

suaded him to retain the post at least
until his immediate tasks at Geneva

If he resigns before the entire cabinet
