PROHIBITION CHIEF
FIRES TOUGH AGENTS
t
Washington. P. C Conduct "die
tlnctly unbecoming to fedural officers"
has resulted Id dismissal of the chief
of the prohibition enforcement ma
chinery In and around the nation's
capital and thro of hla agents, It aa
announced by Assistant Secretary Lin
coln N. Andrews, thief of the prohibi
tion army.
They were charted with having bald
p tho automobile of a man, reputed
to bo a prominent government official,
with drawn revolvers, refusing to re
veal thnlr Identity aa Moral officers,
and actlni discourteously.
Referring to tho agents' activities'
In Maryland and In tho IMatrlrt or
Columbia, General Andrew said;.
"Agi-uts may not rush a limit city
streets and country role holclng up
automobiles without th.t allg'itisi
ratiM. using drawn revolvere and talk
ing abusively to ocrupitnta of Ilia auto
mobiles thoy atop."
Word baa passed around the treas
dry that tho central figure In Wasb
Ington'a prohibition rough housing In
cident, which coat four prohibition of
ficers their Jobs, waa himself an of
ficer of the prohlbitlnn army.
Tho atory aa told by treasury at
taches, but not confirmed or denied
by Crneral Andrews, waa that tho
men were dismissed for overhtiuling
and mistreating Charles R. Nash,
deputy commissioner of Internal rev
on uo.
In an official warning to field
agenta, Andrewa aaid the dismissed
men bad "used drawn revolver! and
threatening and Inputting li nguage
and methods absolutely without caui
or even excuse."
"Let tbla be a lemon to them and
to all others." aald the general.
DISAGREEMENT BIOS
ARMS BODY SESSION
Oeneva. Lacking unanimity on
very vital point after five niontba uf
discussion, the league of Natlona' pre
paratory commission on military dis
armament brought lla aoaalona to a
cloao.
All It could do waa to puts a final
report wherein were expressed the di
vergent views of the t'nitcd Suites,
Great Britain, Jupun, Argentina and
Chile on the one aide, and France,
Belgium, ltnlr and other European na
tlona nn thu other.
The procedure adopted forbade a
final vote on any question before the
group. Thus the divergent opinions
are In form to be presented to the
league's full disarmament commission
at Ita April mooting.
The work of the commission, which
was to answer seven questions rela
tive to methods of disarmament, and
thus form the agenda to be used at
lcni.ua disarmament conference,
brought a divergence of opinion at the
outset between powers commonly
classed as naval powers and led by
Great Ilrltaln, and the continental
European powers led by France.
Tho differences of opinion extended
virtually to every phase of military,
naval, aerial and economic disarma
ment. But the gravest difference was
between tho French thesis calling for
naval disarmament on a basis of total
tonnage of vessels, aa opposed to tho
American demand that tonnage bo
limited according to classes.

IMMUNITY GRANTED '
LIOUOrWITNESSES
Portland, Or. The government loot
one of the largest liquor conspiracy
cases ever brought Into federal court
here when Judge Bean, in a lengthy
decision, granted six of the defend
ants, Including A. Roy Moore, Immun
ity from prosecution.
Judge Bean declared It had been
shown that Moore and the others
either were compelled by the govern
ment to testify In the famous Christen-sen-Smith
liquor conspiracy case of
last spring or before the very federal
grand jury which Indicted them, and
that under section 30 of the Volstead
act they could not be prosecuted.
The decision Is considered on of
the most Important ever banded down
under the Volstead act
The government contended that tho
section did not apply to the defend
ants on grounds that they did not
testify to what bad been expected of
them, and that their testimony had
nothing to do with the charges later
brought agafnat them.
In examining them the government
was very careful to keep off tho
ground of the later charges, accord
ing to representatives of the United
States district attorney's office.
Judge Bean held, however, that the
conspiracy charged against the men
In the present case existed at the time
of the Smitb-Chrlstensen trial and that
their appearance aa witnesses there
fore bought them Immunity.
