GOOD BYE, PROHIBITION ENFORCE
 MENT UNIT.

It's fns was written during the closing days o the special session in executive order submitted by President Roosevelt and approved by Congress Its functions were assigned to general bureaus 1T the Treasury Department and Department of Justice and the unit itself will to exist an entity about August 10, next.
 In explaining the Presidential order to tht Senate Senator Joe Robinson, majority leader, ex- plained what had happened to the Prohibition Bureau follows:
 To the extent that the Bureau of Pro- hibition deals with the manufacture and sale of alcohol, it duplicates work now done by the Buraeu of Internal Revenue. The latter bureau, being a collecting agency is the proper agency to administer the issuance and cancellation of permits which are closely tied up with the collection of revenue and therefore this function is centralized in Internal Revenue.
 With few minor exceptions, the remain ing functions of the Bureau of Prohibition involved the investigation of infractions of the Prohibition law No organization reason is perceived for a special bureau for the investigation of particular kind of crime The Bureau of Investigation of the Depart rnent of Justice is charged with the general investigations of crimes against Federal laws,

Holding Companies.
Chicago Daily News)

Apologists for the holding company system may assert that there is nothing wrong in such opera tions. That is true in theory, but the record of similar operations in the past is that the stock lmanipulators become more interested in safe guarding their control than in protecting investors This was the case with the Insulls. Some of the intercompany transactions of the Van Sweringen roads are open to severe criticism.
 Control is more difficult than analysis of holding company evils. Certainly. however, the story of the Van Sweringens told before the Morgan committee justifies the restrictions imposed by the Emergency Railroad Act and the insistence of the new Securities Law that the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth be told about se- curities offerings.
