And it is a fact, as evidenced by manv cases in the Federal Court. big bootlegging rmx have been broken up. either bv force or voluntarily, and that the m-n who worked In them have opened epeak- easise.

Not So Many It niters Now. Down at the Army Base In Brooklyn, where most of the seized liquor is stored, it is reported that there is a storageware house almost empty. At the pier there, and again at the Government pier at Kavonne. there are almost no seized ships tied up. The battery pier is the same way.

Mills and the former soldiers ho have, surrounded him in the present ad ministration will (o out of office at midnight Thursday. Incidentally, the only real scandal which has broken during their regime is popping about their ears right now.

But It is not the sort of scandal that reared its head to bo'er former Prohibition directorates. Bootlegger 'io have used New York as a bask ill tell you that business Is very nad. Speakeasy operators, on the other hand, will tell you that It Is good. And the fact remains that today It is quite pos sible for a thirsty man to buy liquor in the city. Stopping Liquor at lis Kniiroe.

The whole point of the Mills ad ministration, however, has been to atop fiquor at Its source. Mills, when he took office and in his public ulter- ancea since then, has insisted he did not believe the Government was as much concerned In catching "small fry" as it was in breaking up big bootlegging rings and In stopping the flow of liquor Into the city. Looking the situation over, one Is forced to admit that the present ad ministration has aucceeded in these efforts: 1. has virtually sunk Rum Itow. Two years ago the summer found) anywhere from 10 lo SO ships anchored off the harbor, all loaded with liquor, and all ruiiniiif? it in iu various ways.

Today there Is no Kum Row. 2. It has broken up the "pipe Hue" beer rrom Pennsylvania and New Jersey. There is no Kteady stream of beer-laden trucks rumbling into the city now. 3.

It has slashed crtex-llvelr at Ihe "Mierftineuial wine supply, rutting out something like 7.000,- 000 gallons In two years. 4. It has closed up a large number of giant stills which were mixing mash ami alcohol to make woich and rye. Major Mills himself claims these successes, hut invites investigation. He has owned the theory, since he took office, that the only way to dry up New York was to stop the flow of liquor at the source, and he ha been bending every possible effort, he savs.

to do that. Were Former Army Men. Hills was a former Army man. So was hi first assistant, MaJ. Augustus Heise, and so were several lesser lights.

In fact, he has two agents, still under cover, who got extended leaves of absence from Army service, at the request of Major Alii Is, to become agents. Neither of them has ever worked in New-York City. On the face of H. however, it must be admitted ihal liquor is still prevalent in the city. It is possible to so into a speakeasy and get al-mot anything.

It is possible to get cordials, even, or champagne. Tn thnt statement of fact Director Mills replies, that it will take a year or longer to feel the effects of the Administration's efforts. 'Ynu won't be able to get It so easily in a Is the way he puts it. Mills View on Speakeasies. But It must be remembered that Major Mills has not given any vast attention to speakeasies.

He has allowed them to flourish the Idea being that they will very probably kill themselves. Kroin a bootlecKing standpoint, the last two years has brought success to the speakeasy only.

There was some doubt in City Hall today as to whether adjournment of the criminal charges against the six internes would cause Mayor Walker to postpone his investigation of hospital administration, precipitated by the "hazing" incident and charges of anti-Semitism at Kings County Hospital extending to the institution's wards. Sweedler, however, declared In court that he had been summoned by the Mayor to appear before him In City Hall tomorrow afternoon at o'clock, prepared to go on with his charges. For his part, Sweedler has declared that he will produce 75 patients and physicians at the inquiry to support his charges and those of the Kab-Mnlcal headed by Dr.

In a pocketbook carried by the injured girl was a slip of paper with the name Smith on it.

When the girl regained consciousness in the hospital this morning, however, she gave her name as Aldlne Smith and said she lived on Riverside Drive.

Frank Loughman, chairman of the State Tax Commission, was today declared guilty of contempt by Jus. tlce Dike in Supreme Court for fall-ing to obey a mandamus order Issued last July by Justice directing him to reinstate to their posts as investigators in the Transfer Tax Bureau William F. Haliz of 254 l.lndnn and Simon May of 1010 President St.

The men were ousted bv former Chairman Gilchrist and after they sued for reinstatement, claiming that Democrats had been appointed to do their work but under different titles, a Jury decided their removal was not Justified. Justice Dike was asked In punish all the commissioners, including John J. Merrell and Mark Craves, and they answered they could not comply because the Jobs held by the relators hsd been abolished. The court today decided that Chalrmnn Loughman had the necessary power to obey the order and that although he "inherited the malady" from his predecessor, as Justice Dike described, he had power to cure it. view the removal of the relators as a political gesture, rather than a serious determination of the matter," Justice Dike commented.

He gave iouerhman ten davs In which to purge himself of contempt.

"My headquarters won't be any where in connection with Prohibi tion service," the Major slashed out in reply to a question put by one of bis interviewers. Then realizing that he had given the hint of his future action, he admitted he was going to resinn. He planned to send in his resignation today or tomorrow. But the more he thought of it and the more ho discussed the situation in New York, the angrier he got.

So he rushed for telegraph blanks and aent his message then. "Only Threatened." The Major believes that Muj. Augustus Heise, his assistant, did not get a fair deal from Washington. The suspension of Heise was parti- larly gulling to the Director. Millls insists that although Heise admitted in court that he had caused a suspect to be roped to a chair and then threatened to twist a towel around his neck.

Heise, after all, "only threatened. Then the Director said that he planned to give out a long atatoment either today or Thursday, and that the statement would contain some "interest ins; facts." He didn't say "startling" but it was clearly indicated that he wouldn't mince many words about the prohibition situation in New York. His statement yesterday concerned only the Heise matter.

He has practically no authority in the general district. JUDGE HITS HEISE 3D DEGREE ACTS AT AGENTS' TRIAL Knox Tells Jury to Consider Effect on Witnesses Tuttle to Order Official Probe.

The Board of Estimate at a special meeting this afternoon Is making an effort to settle the bus question. It Is predicted at City Hall by some of the city officials that, nothing- will coma of It, and the belief la gaining ground that the whole project, so fan as It concerns the Installation of a comprehensive, city-wide bus system, Is a good as dead.

Berry anil Byrne Firm. From an authoritative source It was learned that Controller Berrv till is determined not to cast his three votes for the Equitable, and Boro President Byrne is said to be very far from having changed his hostile attitude toward that concern. These five votes are sufficient to prevent adoption of any bus franchise, the legal requirement being 3 votes. The original purpose of to-day's meeting of the Board was to consider the question whnther bus franchises for crosstown routes could be award ed and postpone the matter of longi ludlnal lines until fall without re- advertising the forms of contract as adopted several months ago. New Hearing Dale Necessary.

Corporation Counael Nicholson was requested to submit an opinion on the legality of such a course. He informed the Board today that "if it is desired to amend the forms of contracts by changing or reducing the number of routes advertised in the rontracts now before the Board, it will be necessary to adopt resolu. tions fixing a new dale for linal hear ing and ordering the amended forms of contract entered upon the inin utes for the time required by the charter and further directing the publication of the contract, with notice of a hearing." In view of this opinion the Board must either take up the franchise applications as advertised, or put over the crosstown bus proposition for another month.
