START SELECTION
'OF
i WASHINGTON. July .22. (A. P.)
Federal prohibition officers prepared
to buckle down today to their most
difficult problem in the sweeping dry
re-organ iiuuion select Ion of men to
shoulder the reaponnibnity of enforce
; ment In each of 24 districts provided
In the new plan of operation.
, Bulging files of thousands of let
ters of application, and recommenda
tions awaited consideration at a con
ference called yesterday to meet to
day of the. dry heads on the return to
the capital of Assistant Secretary An
drews of the treasury, creator of the
new enforcement machine.
With the first appointment yet to
be definitely decided on and applica
tions mounting daily, some believe it
1 will be at least another month before
the plan can be put in operation. One
factor supporting this prediction is
the fact; that several hundred em
ployes v at prohibition headquarters
who are to lose their jobs in the re
organization have not as yet received
their required month's notice.
- Selection of the federal administra
tors apparently wus the one big task
confronting officials today, for an
nouncement wus made that the re
vised, regulations covering industrial
alcohol had been completed,
v. The department of justice nt the
same time -was working to determine
the exact boundary lines between fed
eral districts, especially those bounded
by water, to aid officers to prosecute
property seizure cases,

FRANCE TO CONFER
WITH HER ALLIES
ON BERLIN NOTE
PARIS, July 22. (A. P.) The
French government has begun consld. (
oration of the Oerman security note '
presented to the allies on Monduy and
will get in touch with other countries
in an effort to determine the policy '
to follow concerning negotiations with
the German government for a security
pact guaranteeing the western frontier
of Germany.
Should it appear necessary to call a
conference for negotiations it could
be successful only, in the French view t
when an agreement had been reached j
practically on all questions. j
The Journal declares that Instead '
of c'iscusslng the security pact the
German note opens a debate on revis
ion of the peace treaties. -
The Matin is of the same opinion.
These are based on German's conten
tion In the note that she should he
free to negotiate by peaceful agree
ment Buch conditions in the treaties
as she considers are justified by chang
ed circumstances. .
WASHINGTON, July 22. (A. P.)
Substantial accord has been reached
by the powers on a formula to deal
with the whole Chinese' problem.
Formal acquiescence in some ele
ments of the program still is lacking,
but the Peking diplomats are expected
to be in a position to submit the for
mula to the provisional government of
China at an early date. .
The settlement to be proposed will
Include the Washington conference
plan for revision of Chinese customs
duties nnd creation of a commission
of inquiry into extra-territorial ques
tions; and also the British proposals
for a new Judicial Inquiry into the re
sponsibility for loss of lives in the re
cent Shanghai rioting.
The plan for i dealing with the
Shanghai incident is expected to be
contingent upon participation- by the
Peking government In the extra
territorial inquiry and agreement by
that government to be bound by the
findings of the investigation.
