Turner WASHINGTON, Aug: 1-To ex- pediate the contemplated reorgan"- ization of Federal prohibition en- forcement machinery, President Hoover has designated John Mc- Nab, a San Francisco attorney, to study the situation in cooperation with interested governmental agen- cies and formulate recommenda- tions for Congressional action. This announcement was made today by the chief executive who disclosed at the same time that he expects specific recommendation to be ready for transmission to the capitol at the regular December session of Congress. As an additional means of bring- ing early action, Mr. Hoover is hopeful that Congress meanwhile will adopt his suggestion of last June and appoint a joint commit- tee to make an inquiry before the session begins. In this way, he believes legislation could be f or- mulated and laid before the two houses at the outset of the session, thus' avoiding the delay -of pro- tractec committee hearing after this session has begun. Enforcement To Be 'transferred Reviewing briefly the general form the reorganization is to take, the President said its primary pur- pose would be a centralization of responsibility In the department of Justice. To bring this about, it is proposed that the adminis'trative phases of enforcement now under the jurisdiction of .the Treasury be transferred to the Justice depart- ment, giving to that branch of the government responsibility for both administration and investigation. The inquiry also will include methods of expediting judicial ac- tion. Mr. Hoover pointed out that these proposals, "have to do solely with administration and proceed- ure in enforcement of the laws and not with change in the laws them- selves." McNab Is Old Friend The President said McNab had accepted the appointment at the joint request of himself, Secretary Mellon, Attorney-General Mitchell and Chairman Wickersham of the Law enforcement commission. 'It is intended that he shall work in co- operation with the agencies that Mellon, Mitchell, and Wickersham represent, possibly to coordinate their individual findings. McNab, an old friend and for- merly a fellow townsman of the President, came to Washington yesterday, and since haS been a house guest of the chief executive. Because of his long association with Mr. Hoover, he was chosen to make the speech placing the Pres- ident's name in nomination at the Republican National Convention last year in Kansas City. AIR TOUR WILL STAR T SA TURDAY Ann Arbor's interest in the an- nual National Air Tour starting saturday from Ford Airport will center on William Welborn and the Spartan biplane entered by the Spartan Aircraft Co., of Tulsa, Okla., distributed in Michigan and Ohio by the Flo Flying Services, Inc., lessee of Ann Arbor Municipal Airport.
