Ohio Man Named
"Dry" Chief to
Replace Kramer
Roy A. Ha yn'es Appointed Fed
eral Prohibition Commis
sioner Retiring Officer
Outlines Problems.
Washington, June 11. Roy ' A.
Haynes of Hillsboro, Ov today be
came national prohibition commis
sioner, succeeding John F. Kramer
of Mansfield, O. He said that while
he had not as yet torrnulated any
general policy, he brought to his new
ofice the best of his energy and
ability.
loon relinauishment ot the post
he held since November, 1919, Mr.
Kramer issuQd a statement setting
forth some fit Tthe more important
problems beforfl the new commisj
sioner. He suggested tnat congress
enact a law giving Mr. Haynes
authority to limit the qumber of pre
scriptions . for whisky which physi
cians may issue and the quantity of
whisky which may be manufactured
and imported and to prevent the use
of whisky in medicines tn which al
cohol has been used. -
Primary among problems facing
the new commissioner, Mr. Kramer
said, will.be the maintaining of an
organization which will loyally do
the work. While, a tew. prohibition
enforcement officers have betrayed
thtir trust, he declared, the great
majority are loyal and honest.
Alcohol will continue to be a
problem," he said. "It must be en
couraged for industrial uses and
purposes, yet the very alcohol which
is so valuable in industrial lines can
easily be made a potable liquor.
The border problem is rather se
rious in that liquors are smuggled
into the country.
The illicit making of whisky, and
this especially in the south, will re
main a problem for some time.
"The withdrawal of whisky and
alcohol from bond on forged permits
has been one of our greatest problems."
Local and state support to federal
fficials has become more pro
nounced, Mr. Kramer continued.
'The people, he added, have to
great extent, adapted themselves
to the new law ?nd to the changed
conditions." .
Commissioner Haynes announced
tonight the appointment of James
Jones, formerly of xoungstown,
O., as assistant federal prohibition
commissioner.

fair workers at various street cor
ners. "I saw him take money from the
captain at Sixteenth and Farnam,"
reported the watchful scout.

Flora Hoffman.
. "Yes, I gave him money. He wore
a City Mission' band across his
chest and carried the regulation
bags," she related.
"Help, Thief."
Pressed for a description, she re
called a "thin man, gray suit, and
small mustache.
The women threw up their, hands
in dismay.
J'Helpl It's a thief!" cried one.
"Telephone the police!"
"Send cars out notifying the wo
men not to give up their money to
any strange man!"
Staccato orders were issued in
rapid succession.

bank building, waiting for word that
the thief had been caught.
"Villain" Heaves in Sight.
"Who knows how much that man
may have taken?" moaned Mrs. F. J.
v- ...
morion.
Just then a car driven by Mrs.
Charles Wright drew up to the curb.
Out stepped W. Dale Clark, vice
president of the bank, heavily laden
with money bags.
"There's the .man," shrieked Mrs
Hoffman.
"He hasn't any mustache," chorus
ed bystanding women.
"No, I haven't but I admit I
need a shave, ladies. What's the
trouble?" inquired the innocent Clark,
already heralded to the police as a
man with a black mustache.
Explains Mystery.
He was told.
"Why, Gould Dietz sent me out to
collect this money," he explained.
"He didn't tell us anything about
it," returned the women.
Nevertheless they sighed deep
sighs of relief.
