Campbell Decrees Jail for All Who Display Liquor in Public Spot With prohibition agents nuder orders to arrest- every person possessing liquor in a public place, Prohibition Administrator Maurice Campbell today had set into action the most concentrated dry law enforcement drive 1 in the city's history and caused consternation to reign in the heretofore unmolested hotels and restaurants in the theatrical districts. Major Campbell's. warning that his agents would not "hesitate" to arrest any individual who displayed contraband refreshments in a hotel or restaurant dining room or night club was the first declaration of war on liquor buyers in the city. It was, too, generally regarded aos the most drastic order issued in Washington's avowed campaign to "dry up" New York. Includes Whole Area Deputy Administrator Donovan, in charge of the subdivision under Major Campbell including Brooklyn and Long Island, declared today that his chief's orders against the individual drinker included "the whole district of New York City and Long Island." The warning was broadened to include stipulation that arrests would fall on the personnel of hotels, restaurants, and night clubs serving ice or glasses for the consumption of liquor, and that padlock proceedings would be started against their properties.

The Campbell warning was sounded as raiding parties of 21 agents and marshals spent their second busy night in the uptown district and raided the Cornish Arms Hotel at 311 W. 23d St. and Cavanaugh's restaurant at 258 W. 23d making 20 arrests and seizing small quantities of alleged con- traband. No Guests Disturbed None of the guests at either the hotel or the restaurant was disturbed, those arrested being bellboys, waters and alleged bootleggers.

The raids followed by 24 hours' Monday night's descent on the 20- story Hotel Manger, in the theatrical district, and came at time when all was not quite harmony in official sources as to what steps would be taken against the allegedly offending hostelry. Major Campbell, following the raid, asserted that he would seek to have the $3,000,000 hotel padlocked from "top to bottom." This project was modifled by Assistant United States Attorney Robert B. Watts, in charge of prohibition cases, who said the padlock proceedings would be brought only against the grill and rooms in which liquor was served. This brought another assertion from Campbell that he would demand that the whole hotel be padlocked, and led to a telephone conference between the Prohibition Administrator and U. S.

Attorney Tuttle. Tuttle to Study Case "Major Campbell said he would forward the reports to me promptly," Tuttle declared. "I will give these reports consideration and then confer with Major Campbell as to further procedure." The management of the hotel issued a statement denying Campbell's assertions that the proprietors were aware of "frightful conditions," and asserting that they had instructed their employes to take every step to see that prohibition laws were obeyed. Stating that "we believe these instructions have been carried out," the management posted bail for its 11 employes arrested in the raid and indicated that strong resistance would be offered to the Government's proceedings. The Manger employes were represented by Frank A.

K. Boland and Joseph J. Korn, counsel to the hotel, on arraignment late yesterday before U. S. Commissioners.

The arrests at the Cornish Arms Hotel included the hotel barber and an alleged bootlegger, said to be partners in the selling of liquor, four waiters and three bellboys. Mortimer Hays, counsel for stockholders in the hotel, said that John F. Murray, proprietor of the hotel, had caused a to be posted on the hotel bulletin board a short while ago stating that employes engaged in liquor traffic would be dismissed. The Restaurant Raid Eight of the prisoners taken in the restaurant raid were listed as waiters, one as bartender, one as cashier, and the other, Michael Moynahan, was described as secretary and treasurer of the place. "The public is warned," Major Campbell's statement reads, "that the possession of liquor in public places may result in the arrest of those citizens who openly violate the law, and under my instructions my agents will not hesitate to make arrests of individuals who publicly display liquor on tables in restaurants nd night clubs.

Heretofore these individuals have not been arrested, but from now on they must be prepared to accept the consequences of their law violations. "The display and consumption of liquor in restaurants, night clubs and other public places in New York must cease." Two Drunken Drivers Are Jailed in Lynbrook Lynbrook, L. Feb. 12-Two drunken drivers started serving long jail sentences yesterday after they had been convicted by Justice of the Peace Edward T. Neu in Lynbrook Court.

Atlo Gey of 6 W. Park Long Beach, and Joseph Sekulski of Greengrove East Hempstead, were unable to pay their fines after being convicted of driving while intoxicated. The former will have to stay in the county jail at Mineola for 160 days if he isn't able to raise his fine. The latter will serve 110 days if someone doesn't provide $100 for him. CATCH 4,000 DOGS Hempstead, L.

Feb. 12-At the weekly meeting of the Hempstead Town Board yesterday Jacob Roper of Valley Stream, the official dog catcher of the town, submitted his annual report, showing that of 4,237 dogs caught in the town during the year, only 328 were redeemed. ARRESTED IN HOTEL RUM RAID Employes of the Hotel Manger, arrested in a raid there Monday shown, as they arrived at the ment yesterday. They accused of selling liquor and night, were handcuffed, as Federal building for arraignwere released on bail. Witness Hits Laxity in Big Cities as Dry Hearing Opens Continued from Page 1, over 1,360 have resulted in the last ten years from enforcement.

One hundred fifty citizens were killed by prohibition officers and 64 agents killed by citizens. In one year there were 77,351 arrests for violations, alleged or real. During the first year under prohibition there were 29,000 cases instituted, and during the last fiscal year there were close to 70,000. Prison Relief Urgent "Demand for more prisons has been made and new ones ordered, from over-crowding except for a pewhich 1 it is said will not give relief riod of five years or possibly ten. Prison population has jumped 4 percent per 100,000 in the last five years.

"When on we add corruption, bribery, demoralization of the citizenry, disrespect for law, bootlegging and kindred offenses, does not such a picture call for the fair, dispassionate judgment of men and women, to come together and reason over what remedy can be devised to abate this sad condition. A Destructive Law House for consideration. Two-thirds Vote Needed. Chairman Graham said no law couled ever be enforced was destructive of right and individual liberty. "You may create a guerilla warfare and conditions reeking with murder, bribery, corruption, violations or evasions and disrespect for to be capable of being enforced all 1 law," Graham said.

"Every law without such a train of consequences must not be inconsistent with the mind of the people of the country as being right and must not be destructive ofindividual liberty." Chairman Groham prefaced this statement by saying seven resolutions each containing a proposition to amend the Constitution were introduced in the House by seven different members and referred to the Judiciary Committee by The purpose also, he said, was for the committee if it deemed them meritorious to have them reported back to the House. Their adoption would necessitate a two-thirds vote in ach branch of Congress. After that he explained threefourths of the States must concur in the action of Congress. Should Congress reject a resolution proposing revision of the Constitution, Graham added, it then would not be submitted to the States. In the event an amendment should be submitted to the States, he said it could be approved by the State Legislature or by a convention convened in each State so directed by Congress.

"The convention methods, which would require delegates to be elected on the issue of amendment, would furnish the opportunity for a referendum, so much desired and asked for," he said. "That method of ratification would furnish the only way a referendum can ever be had under the law. Explains Hearing Right "There was widespread requests for hearings from proponents and the friends of the resolutions; hence a hearing has been ordered. In the existing state of thepublic mind a hearing upon the matters could not be denied without infringing the rights of American citizens to petition and be heard by the Congress upon redressing a wrong or bettering a condition. "This hearing will not interfere with President Hoover's' Crime Commission, but rather be an id thereof.

"The Eighteenth Amendment and the enforcement law has been tested for 10 years, without satisfactory results. Enforcement has left a train of consequences most deplorable and to every patriot." Caucus Room Crowded The more than 200 men and women gathered in the House caucus room listened intently to Graham. Nearly half of the audience was composed of women. Representative Mary T. Norton, Democratic wet of New Jersey, author of one of the pending resolutions, sat in the front row.

Miss M. Louise Cross, chairman of the Women's Committee for the Repeal of the 18th Amendment, and Mrs. David H. Martin, secretary, both were on hand prepared to testify. Graham was interrupted by a burst of applause when he said that no law can be enforced that is de- Civics Ask Rehearing On Park Site Sale The Rusurban Civic Association Negro organization, headed by Al Fred D.

Byrne, who declared that if the Reds refuse to obey the law they should be run out of the country. The Borough President expressed this opinion at the conclusion of an address on "Lincoln the Soldier," delivered in conjunction with a Lincoln's Birthday Eve program sponsored by the Americanization committee of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Department of New York. Program Broadcast The program. which was under the direction of George William Duggan, departmental patriotic instructor, was broadcast over Station WNYC.

"In this city there recently sprang up disturbances that had as their only object the tearing down of what such men as Lincoln and Washington tried to build up." Mr.

The conspiracy, the Government charged, had resulted in thousands of dollars worth of liquor being smuggled into the United State.

Three rum rings, accused of using pack trains to bring in the liquor, were said to have resorted to camouflage to hide the long lines plodding, liquor-laden animals, and at times to have driven the mules over United States Forestry Service trails, "So systematized were the widespread operations of the three rum rings that a "traffic manager" was employed to route the many pack trains from Canada to secluded places opposite the sparsely settled and mountainous Okanogan counItery in north central Washington.

Burwell, Queens Superintendent of Buildings, last night asked for public assistance as he carried the fight against the amendments to the building code, now pending before the Board of Aldermen, over radio station WWRL in Woodside. Asking that protests against the proposed amendments be filed with him, Superintendent Burwell charged that should the resolution be enacted plans for new buildings or alterations could be filed only by registered architects and "would force the architects to establish a minimum rate that would almost equal the cost of minor construction or repairs."
