BY EARL RICHERT

The appointment recently of Ernest Minniear, Gary police cap.ain, as state excise chief presages, according to sources close to the alcoholic beverages commission, a “tightening-up” on liquor law enforcement by

the excise police.

While it was announced that Ralph Howard, the excise chief since

1941, resigned, it is known that the mission members. The members, it is reported, had nothing against Mr. Howard personally but they were dissatisfied with the enforcement job that was being done under his direction. The new police head who is being paid $375 a month, $50 a month more than his predecessor, has been given a free hand to revamp the excise department. Commission members have told him that they will approve any demotions or promotions he deems necessary to increase the efficiency of the department. There are approximately 50 excise police officers operating | throughout the state which is divided into four districts, each district under a lieutenant. One plan under consideration for strengthening the department is the ap-

one to be responsible for the northern part of the state and the other for the southern.

Had FBI Training

The position of excise chief falls to the Republicans under the bipartisan setup under which the A. B. C. operates and it is known that worried G. O. P. leaders have long been asking their members on the commission to do something about strengthening the enforcement division. But Chief Minniear's appointment did not come through regular organization channels. An FBI-trained man with a good police record, he was selected by Lowell Patterson and Neil MecCallum, the two G. O. P. commission members. In addition to changing the excise police chief, the commission members also have a plan designed to stop some of the criticism of the department that is made “without basis of fact.” Glenn Markland, public rela-

resignation was requested by com-

tions director for the A. B. C, is to make a trip throughout the state contacting members of the '43 legislature and other prominent citizens in each community. He will ask the persons he contacts if they have any complaints and, if so, to name the tavern or retailer that is evading thé law. » » ”

Doyle Re-Elected

When the Stout liquor law went into effect in 1041, it was the plan of commission members to rotate the chairmanship each year between the four members. But this plan has never been put into effect. Bernard Doyle of Hebron, a Democrat, has been reelected annually, the last time this month. Republican members say that the rotating plan was dropped because the members all felt that the governor's choice should be the chairman, and Mr. Doyle was the governor's choice. (All four members are appointed by the

governor.) » » »

Judgeship for Emmert

Odds and Ends: John Bookwalter of Indianapolis, long prominent in G. O. P. circles, is being mentioned frequently, along with Al Norris, 10th district G. O, P. chairman, as a possible successor to State Chairman Ralph Gates when he resigns to run for governor. . . . Henry R. Kissling of English, an unsuccessful candidate for the eighth district G.O. P. congressional nomination last year, says he is thinking of running for lieutenant governor next year. . . . Long-range G. O. P. planning calls for a federal judgeship for Attorney General James Emmert—that is, of course, if the Republicans elect a president next year. Mr. Emmert is scheduled to run for re-election.

s End of ‘Lady of Leisure’

NEW YORK, May 11 (U. P). —Mrs. Alexander Thompson of Glendale, O., American mother of 1043 and president of Western college at Oxford, O., told a meeting of the American Association of University Women yesterday that “the era of the lady of leisure is over.” Mrs. Thompson, who came to New York Friday to receive a medal award from the Golden Rule Foundation following her selection by the American mothers committee of the foundation, said: “There is, and will continue to be, immediate, despetate work to be done now by women a The day of the lady of leisure, the woman who is not exerting herself to the utmost, is over. For any of us to shirk our re gponsibilities now would be crime inal.” Mrs. Thompson said it is imperative that “each woman find the job for which she is best fitted and enter into it with no false attitude of glamor.”
