5,000 BOOTLEGGERS NOW IN WASHINGTON; CAPITAL VERY WET Dry Organizations Are at Odds Over Plans to Control Prohibition Unit. Eagle Bureau, 901 Colorado Building. By JOHN BILLINGS Jr. Washington, Dee. 6-What to do with the Prohibition Unit? How to make Washington dry? These are the two most baffling questions today facing the prohibition enthusiasts in.

Capital, As for the Prohibition Unit itself, it has become a sort of "yeller dawg" which is kicked around and wanted by nobody. As for trying to sop up the puddles within plain sight of the Capitol itself, it seems an almost hopeless job for the dry agents here. Two Plans for Prohibition Unit. The Anti-Saloon League, that almost omnipotent organization when it comes to prohibition, has ruled that the Prohibition Unit should be taken away from the Internal Revenue Bureau and made an independent bureau responsible directly to the Secretary of the Treasury. The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals of the Methodist Episcopal Church, another powerful lobbying agency, wants the Prohibition Unit shifted body and soul to the Department of Justice.

Even the Prohibitionists are not in hearty agreement as to what they want. At the last session of Congress bill drafted by Congressman Louis Cramton of Michigan, the behest of Wayne B. Wheeler, potentate of the Anti-Saloon League, passed the House, 276 to 86. This measure provides that the Prohibition Unit should be divorced from the Internal Revenue Bureau and be placed directly under the Secretary of the Treasury. It also provides that authority to issue withdrawal permits for industrial alcohol be taken from the Internal Revenue and.

turned over to the Prohibition Unit. Its third feature is that all the prohibition agents should be put into the classified Civil Service, which would halt the practice of making political appointments. And now the Anti- -Saloon League is whooping it up for this measure, hoping that to it will be passed before the end of the session. Why Some Senators Object. But there is opposition to this Cramton bill, for obvious reasons.

Senators who are at heart wet have tolerated prohibition enforcement chiefly because it gave them more fill with their political henchmen and now it is proposed to eliminate this very rich field of patronage by making it Civil Service. Then, too, the druggists are up in arms at the proposal to take the industrial alcohol business away from the Internal Revenue and give it over to the Prohibition Unit. They make the claim that the Prohibition Unit is grossly fanatical and will give them a square deal on withnot drawals. But the Anti-Saloon League knows what it is has stated that at least 6.000,000 gallons of industrial alcohol are withdrawn and each that year for bootlegging purposes to stop this illicit supply it is necessary turn the whole machinery over to the Prohibition Unit. Temperance Board's Viewpoint.

The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals is trailing the Anti-Saloon League in supporting the Cramton bill. but it utters frequent asides to the effect that the Justice Department is the only proper place for the Prohibition Unit, because it is essentially a law enforcement agency. This organization has also an alternative-that prohibition be elevated to the rank a free and independent unit. outside of any department, and responsible only the President of the United States himself. The President naturally is not inclined to favor scheme which would thus burden him directly with so troublesome affair.

And in the meantime Washington itself remains pretty doggone wet. Local Paper Feels Out Sentiment. The truth of the matter is that the population of Washington is not in sympathy with prohibition, as is the case in most Eastern cities. Many a good Congressman will take an occasional drink and think nothing about it. During the current week a local newspaper conducted a test of the city's actual sentiment.

It put al honest-to-goodness flask full--in the right-hand hip pocket of one of its reporters and sent him out into the streets to wander about and get reactions. His coat was carefully thrust down behind the flask. You could get the flash of the stopper 50 feet away. The reporter walked all noon, through the thickest congestion. Some people joshed hint.

Others hastened to inform him that his flask was showing. But not one was disposed to run to the corner policeman and have him arrested. The policemen ignored him. He returned to his office unpinched-and emptied his flask in the sink. The fact that it contained nothing stronger than tea in no way lessened the significance of the experiment.

Recently there was a sharp controversy here over the number of bootleggers in the city. They are here--plenty of them -working with a fairly free hand. But how many? 5,000 Busy Bootleggers. Well, Assistant United States Attorney David A. Hart gave out to the local press a statement that there were about 5,000 in town, all doing a good business.

Wayne B. seized upon this statement, asking Wheeler of the Anti League for an explanation. Mr. Hart then blamed the reporters and named a much smaller figure to Mr. Wheeler.

Still later when taken to task by the newspapers for thus amending his statement to Mr. Wheeler, Mr. Hart said: "I felt I had to do this because it might get the District Attorney's effice into a jam. Your story was correct, however. I still say estiinate there are 5.000 bootleggers in Washington." Creditors Charge Fraud In Bankruptcy Petition Charging that he removed and concealed, or permitted others to remove and conceal, with the intent of defrauding creditors, cash in excess of $1,000, three creditors today filed fL petition in involuntary bankruptey against Louis Steinberger of 131 Buckingham president of the Electrose Manufacturing Company of 70 Washington st.

Despondent because of unemployment and failure to receive expected funds from relatives in England are given by the Medical Examiner's office as the causes that prompted Kenneth Crute, 26, of the West Side Y.

M. C. 318 W. 57th Manhattan, to commit suicide early today in the apartment of Miss Nina Jaeger, at 605 Lexington by inhaling illuminating gas. The body was found lying on two pillows in front of the kitchen stove, on which all the burners had been opened, by Miss Elsie Kirschner of 30 Stratford Brooklyn, a friend of Miss Jaeger's, who had given Crute permission to use the apartment last night.

Miss Jaeger is out of town. According to Miss Kirschner, Crute arrived here from England five months ago. He was unable to get work and his funds became exhausted. An expected remittance from England failed to arrive and Miss Kirschner, when she went with Crute last night to inspect the apartment on the second floor rear of the Lexington ave. address, gave him permission to remain there over night.

A note was left by Crute asking the authorities to notify Miss Kirschner of his She arrived at the apartment at 10:20 o'clock this morning, opened the door and was met witth gas fumes, She opened the windows and called Patrolman Harry Vincent, of the E. 51st st. station. Dr. Filipino of Reception Hospital said Crute had been dead several hours.

GRAND JURORS URGE SMITH TO ABOLISH BOARD OF PAROLE Promised Release of Brindell Called Menace by Kings County Association. A recommendation advocating the abolition of the State Parole Board was yesterday sent to Governor Smith by Clarence F. Spayd, secretary of the Kings County Grand Jurors Association. At the annual meeting of the association on Friday the secretary was commissioned to send the 'telegram to the Governor following a heated discussion, in which the Parole Board was scored for its reported action promising the release from prison of Robert P. Brindell, former czar of the building trades unions.

The association had formerly called for the abolition of the Parole Board, according to Mr. Spayd. 'An excerpt from the telegram follows: "In consequence of the recent determinations of the State Parole Board, we reaffirm our recommendation for the instant discontinuance of this board, because of its menacing influence against the best social and legal interests of the people of this State." At the meeting Friday Victor A. Lerner, vice president of the Bowery Savings Bank, was elected president of 'the association. Other officers are Capt.

Cocheu, director 'of the Brooklyn Bureau at 317 Washington both sound a warning that, un1688 the public response for applicationa for the State motorcar 11- censes is immediate the congestion of the license offices throughout Greater New York between Christmas and the first of the year "will be terrific." In a statement yesterday Commissioner Harnett declares that although there have been 22 branch offlees opened for license issue during the past two weeks, two weeks earlier than they were last year, the response has been most disappointing.

There has been but 20,000 licenses issued to owners in the whole city. The number that must be issued before re Dec. 31, midnight, run upward of 300,000. "The showing the number of people visiting our branches are discouraging," said the Commissioner. "As few as 29 persons per day have taken advantage of the license issue in some of the branches.

"The offices were opened to save the people from getting into the awful he continues, "that formerly attended the rush for registration at the last moment, when it took an applicant six hours to get A set of plates; six a hours standing in the rain, cold and snow. The publie is thoroughly cognizant of all this yet it awaits until the very last ment." Director Cocheu is concerned over the outlook. So far in Brooklyn but 4,200 persons have applied and obtained licenses. Last year at this time, although the sale of the plates started two weeks later, more than 5,000 licenses had been given out. He points out that between now and the first of the year more than 115,000 licenses must be issued in Brooklyn alone.

"If only the large owners of motorcars and trucks would Mr. Cocheu said yesterday, "conditions would improve. And also others who have the time. "We can issue plates to any of those who apply now, within 10 minutes. If the public waits until the last moment the jam is sure to congest the offices and bring inconvenience to these who must wait long hours in line.

"Under the law all cars must have the new year's plates after midnight, Dec. 31." PLUNKETT CRUSADE HAS TRANSFORMED NAVY YARD SECTION Marine Patrol Keeping Sailors Straight- Lid Down Tight on Vice Dens. By JAMES L. HOLTON. Admiral Plunkett has made good his promise to clean up in Sands and has not stopped there, but has extended his crusade throughout the whole Navy Yard district.

Working without show, Marine patrols from the Navy Yard barracks, since last August, have put a decided crimp in the conditions which caused the naval commandant to clap a "restriction ban" on this whole district. just short of a year For months now vicious resorts that fall within the ken of the efficient patrol officer from the Navy Yard have felt the wrath of Admiral Plunkett. The whole of Hudson from its north end at the East River, up to DeKalb is forbidden ground for the Navy man. On Sands st. there are 17 forbidden places between the Navy Yard gate and Fulton st.

Other points restricted to sailors are: Twelve stores and other business places on Washington between York and Tillary sts. places on Adams beThree tween York and Tillary sts. One store near High and Pearl streets. One store near High and Hudson avenue. Nine places on Fulton between Front and High sts.

Four places on Tillary between Pearl and Gold sts. Three places on Nassau between Jay and Navy sts. near the corner of Two places Humboldt and Debevoise sts. One place near the corner of Gold and Sands sts. The sailor also may not make use of the Clark st.

subway station of the I. R. T. either going to or from the Navy Yard. There had been numerous complaints from residents on larking there.

Too, the point was Heights about sailors skyBrooklyn used a rendezvous of the element that preys upon men ashore. Men found entering restricted places stores in the Yard area are Immediately placed under arrest by the patrols constantly on guard during the afternoons and evenings. The crews of the vessels at the naval station are warned of the banned on arrival at the naval station. points The campaign of Admiral Plunkett has had its effect. Sailors now traveling the streets in the seen Yard section have some place to go and do not loiter.

It is rare that is seen under the influence of one and, rarer still, seen with liquor questionable characters. DIAMON Bought From private individuals and estates. Highest prices paid. No Years. waiting.
