m; HECKLED FROM EVERY SIDE, MAY GIVE UP 1 I Snubbed by Society and Congress, Andrews Plans Quitting in Fall. Bu United l'ress WASHINGTON, July 3.—Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Andrews probaly will resign this fall as prohibltfon czar if he can sidestep the Federal office without admitting defeat on the tremendous task he undertook. Somewhat discouraged with the lack of congressional support and the trend his social life has taken, because of the nature of his position, Andrews is aboitfrready to reUre to civil life. Failure of Congress to pass the Goff bill, strengthening the tiolstead act. has handicapped law enforcement, he admitted today. Shelving of the measure to allow appointment of former military officers as prohibition officials also has /been a serious setback. Almost Ostracized He is thoroughly disappointed with his job from the social standpoint. While he is not ostracized, former friends who serve cocktails al dinners and parties no longer invite the general to their social functions when . intoxicants are served. Therefore, he misses many social invitations. Loss of several of his most dependable fieutneants also has been a blow to Anlrews. After training several assistants for most important posts, they have suddenly resigned for personal reasons or to enter commercial fields, which pay higher salaries. ' Year Soon Up Andrews last November said that he would quit within one year If he (lid ndt make progress in drying up America. His year is up in four mouths and today he admitted that conditions were not what he desired in several prohibition districts. He appears to be presenting an optimistic front to the world, but in his heart he is known to be sick and tired of the whole thing. Heckled by wets, criticised by drys, and between a genera! crossfire from every direction, his is a thankless task, 'his friends say. "* Refuses to Talk “I do not care'to discuss the subject,” Andrews said today when asked when he intended to resign. ‘‘lt is a question that requires considerable thought, but one that may have to be answered at any minute. ‘‘l would not quit under circumstances that would blemish my character or stain the personal obligations I have made. My duty tj the Government must also be considered.” Andrews, accompanied by William Valance, assistant solicito* of the State Department and Arthur Henderson special assistant to Attorney General Sargent, will sail for Europe JulyCJ..... Will See English ‘‘We expect to carry on negotiations with the British government intended to establish, working arrangements that will tend to prevent illegal shipping operations connected with the smuggling of liquor into the United Spates. “There will be no change 4n the •present treaty with great Britain. This Government was invited to attend the negotiations by British officias and we hope to work out methods whereby information regarding smuggling will be exchanged.” Andrews said when he Returns on Aug. 11, he will again resume active charge of prohibition work. He would not say for how long. Frank Dow, his assistant, will direct dry enforcement until his return. Detailed letters to administrators, advising them how to carry on during the interim,' were sent out. by the dry czar today. Each lieutenant was urged to speed up his work, produce results or be prepared to resign. ■ “As soon as I get back, administrators will be summoned to Washington” for a round-table he explained. “We will map out the fall "”hml winter -campaign and by September the new machinery should be functioning perfectly. Until that time, we will have to get along the best way possible.” Appointment of the 906 extra dry agents, as well as inauguration of inspections allowed under the deficiency bill, will be delayed until Andrew’s returns. •

A dozen bills for modification of the Volstead Acts were carried over.

The resolution directs a senatorial committee to determine the facts regarding the sale of patents to the Chemical Foundation of Delaware afld the sale of the Bosch Magneto Company.

One of the relief hills passed by the Senate gave recognition to the services of six Army colonels on the retired list since the World War without mentioning their names. Other legislation correcting defects in administration of the World War veterans’ act was shot through without objectio'K or reading. The House passed two Senate hills designed to facilitate prosecution of the Dome and Elk Hills oil cases, arising out of the oil scandals of 1924. The Senate adopted the Jones resolution directing the Shipping Board to draft a program for building up a merchant marine and report it to the next Congress. The President used the same table President Lincoln did to sign the bills. President Coolidge signed the second deficiency bill, carrying $51,000,000. Included in the provisions is an appropriation of $3,000,000 for additional prohibition enforcement work, including hiring of 900 new Federal agents. • 0 Others signed: To construct a bridge across the Mississippi River at South St, Paul. To increase pensions of Civil Svar Veterans, known as the Ownibus Civil War pension bill. To grant an easement to New York City to land adjoining the military reservation of Ft. Hamilton for highway purposes. More work has been accomplished since December than any other Congress of recent years. A $350,000,000 tax reduction law was enacted: the Italian and five other debt settlements were ratified; a long-pending resolution for Ameriadherence to the world court was adopted. About 500 bills have been passed.

The power wires of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company will be cut. Largest Ever Moved The Haugh Hotel will be the first large building ever moved intact through Indianapolis streets. However, Hunt scoffs at fears of accidents, declaring that similar maneuvers have been successfully executed in other cities.

A minor farm relief bill was passed, but the tesue of general farm aid was left unsettled. The aircraft bills providing building programs and increased personnel in the air services and the railroad .labor bill, establishing a railway arbitration board were other measures conducted through Conr gress by the Administration. Leaders of all factions are satisfied and virtually every Senator and Congressman Is eager to go home. Many will open fall political campaigns. The outstanding development of the session is the political realignment of both the major parties. Democratic and Republican leaders joined hands on (he tax reduction and world court legislation. New Farm Bloc But anew farm bloc within the Republican ranks has been formed by Vice President Dawes, Senator Watson of Indiana, and Senator MoNary, Republican, Oregon. Although the wing failed to obtain passage for its Haugen bill, it killed the Fess farm relief plan. Its activities probably will furnish the basis for political developments for months to come. The Senate primary investigation has stirred the political waters by revealing huge expenditures In the Republican senatorial primary, and the earlier Senate prohibition investiation was the signal for the wots to go on the warpath. The Senate defeated the nomination of Wallace McCamant, Oregon, to be a Federal judge, although McCamant is the man who started the Coolidge stampede for the Republican vice presidential nomination In 1920. Some other less important nominations also have beeti rejected. Despite the great amount of legislation, President Coolidge used his veto power but twice, both times on inconsequential measures. The first veto was on a private bill reinstating an Army officer who had been dishonorably discharged. The President’s action was based on the recommendation of the Secretary of War. The second veto came Friday on a bill authorizing permits to land and oil rights on unallotted lapds in Indian reservations. This measure was vetoed on the recommendatipn of Senator Borah, Idaho, who told the President that large oil Interests were lobbying for the bill and that It ’would discriminate agalhst independent oil companiesOn the other hand, most of the Administration measures have been passed, the Tincher-Fess farm relief plan being the only major piece of legislation sponsored by the White House that was -defeated.

KIPLING KNE WHIS STUFF, WIFE AVERS Chicago Girl Weds Prince — Goes to India Where He Re* verted to ‘Harem’ Ideas—She Sues for Divorce.

Bu United Pres* , CHICAGO, July 3.—The experi- . ence of being held captive in India i by her Hjniffi mate has convinced i Mrs. Betty Jvurlo Bose, former Chi- : cago co-ed, that Rudyard Kipling ! knew his stuff when he penned those : lines about east meeting west. She has asked for a divorce from Abani Kumar Bose, prince of a small es- | tate In Baroda, India, and Judge I Joseph Sabath has indicated he would grant the decree. Mrs. Bose, who is 27, and unusually pretty, set forth in hep petition that she met the Hindu Prince when I she was an 18-year-old co-ed, and they were students together at Northwestern Fniyersity here. Following a whirlwind courtship in which Prince- Abani convinced her 'that he had fully acquired occidental ideas of marriage, they were married In 1917 and lived together In this country for several years. During this period, she 'said her husband treated her “with unfailing consideration.” But in 1922. Mrs. Bose stated, Prince Abani persuaded her to go with him to his estate In India. Then It was. she said, that her husband reverted to the customs of his native India and kept her a virtual prisoner in the women’s quarters of his home. When she begged him to take her back to the United States, her princely husband beat her, she complained.

DENIES PETITION ■ IN PODNEMERGER Holds 4 Per Cent Fee to Be Objectionable. Taking the view that the four per cent contractual fee imposed by the American Telephone Telegraph Company on its subskliarise is objectionable. the public service commission has denied the petition of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, one of those subsidiaries, to absorb five small telephone companies. The proposed merger was more of a bookkeeping change, since the Bell already owns most of the stock in each. Companies which the Bell sought to merge are the Citizens Telephone Company of Columbus, the New Home Telephone Company of Bloomfield, the Parke County Telephone Company of Rockville, the Indiana Telephone and Telegraph Company of Clinton and Ae Corn solidated Telephone Company of Danville and Plainfield. Two years ago the commission acted similarly on a request of the Bell *to merge several small companies.
