! STATES AIDING IN PROSECUTION OF RUMGASES Federal Director Doran Is Gratified by Growing Co-Operation. BY CECIL OWEN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—Satisfactory progress is being made by the treasury in its campaign to obtain a greater measure of state cooperation in enforcement of the eighteenth amendment, according to Prohibition Commissioner James M. Doran, Administrators in each of the twenty-seven prohibition districts throughout the country report a gratifying response, Doran said, to the treasury’s appeal for further state aid in prosecution of liquor cases. It is the treasury’s plan to have the great majority of the smaller cases tried by state’s attorneys under local nuisance statutes, rather than in federal courts under the eighteenth amendment. Will Relieve U. S. Courts Transfer of the bulk of smaller cases to tl; lower courts is expected to have a salutary effect on congested federal court dockets and will permit federal prohibition agencies also to concentrate their full energies on the large-scale bootleggers. In only one instance has the treasury’s program met with outspoken opposition from local authorities. Police Commissioner Grover Whalen of New York City refused to co-operate because New York state has no dry law, but county district attorneys in other parts of the state responded favorably. President Hoover’s law enforcement commission is a’so studying the part played by states in prohibition enforcement and is expected to have seme suggestions for further clarification of federal and state funct’ons when it submits its preliminary report to the White House probably next year. War on Bootleg Rum Meanwhile, the treasury’s three prohibition units, coast guard, customs service and prohibition bureau, are proceeding -,/ith utmost vigor to halt the flow' of bootleg rum. Drives are under w f ay in Chicago, Detroit and the vicinity of New York where the largest liquor ring ever known recently was raided. In Chicago, the campaign has resulted in indictment of more than 100 bootleggers under prohibition, income tax, narcotic, Mann act, and other laws. Other cities may oe selected for cleanups by the treasury and justice departments in the near future. Plans are being formulated by the treasury for the transfer next month of a large body of prohibition agents and customs border patrolmen from Great Lakes region to the Florida coast where they wall concentrate on halting the incoming tide of smuggled liquor from tropical ports.

ADMIRAL JUNES MAY REFUSE TO ATTENQj’ARLEY Rift in General Board of Navy May Disrupt London Party. Bv United Press WASHINGTON. Nov. 15.—Friction is developing within the ranks of President Hoover's naval advisers and may result in Rear Admiral Hilary Jones refusing to accompany the American delegation to the London conference, the United Press was told today. President Hoover and others, it is understood still are hopeful Admiral Jones will consent to go. Jones had not informed officials today whether he would accept Mr. Hoover’s appointment. He has said he is not sure of his course. Being a retired admiral, he is free to accept or reject the offer. The disagreement extends to the navy general board. Two factors combine to cause Jones’ hesitation, although Mr. Hoover announced him some time ago as one of two naval officers who would be on the advisory commission in London. First Admiral William V. Pratt is to be a member of the. advisory commission and, because he is commander of the United States navy and a full admiral on the active list, he would outrank Jones. Second, Jones and others on the general board want the American delegation pledged to a definite program before leaving Washington and this the state department has refused to agree to,
