SCORES HOOVER GROUP SECRECY IN LAWS PROBE Harris Serves Notice of Intention to Oppose Appropriation. Jlv f nitrd Prr WASHINGTON. Dec. 20. A declaration of war against the secrecy policies of President Hoover s ’w enforcement commission was made in the senate today by the prominent dry leader, Senator William Harris <Dem.. Ga.). Harris said he had been Informed one of the members of the commission was seeking a lease on a home here for four years, indicating the commission did not intend to report before the next presidential election. ‘■/Ivory enemy of prohibition is in favor of the com mis/ ion staying behind closed doors as they are doing," said Harris. “I want to serve notice that when the appropriation for operation of the commission is brought up in the . enate within the next few weeks, I will propose an amendment statng no part of the money should i-e "tven th n comm' rion ay long as it ■ -maim behind closed doors.” *-*r*:s was joined later by Senator .Glass 'Dem., Va.> who said a member of the commission had called at his office last week for aropy of the resolution adopted by congress under which it is working. ‘‘Not a member of the commission apparently ever had heard of the resolution creating it,’ said Glass, ‘‘or knew what the funds were to be used for. This was the most extraordinary indfference to the expressed will of congress I ever have seen. I am going to insist, too, that before this congress appropriates another dollar, it will require- this commission to make come report of its activities.” Harris was aroused because another dry leader. Senator Jones of Washington, Republican whip, objected to the Harris resolution requiring President Hoover to make his commission report findings on prohibition to congress. Jones said he considered the resolution an affront to the President and admittedly an effort to force out a report from the silent commission.
