McNab, Sari Francisco lawyer, has undertaken, at the re- quest of President Hoover, the dif- ficult task of formulating legisla- tion to bring about better prohibi- tion enforcement and relief of court congestion. Mr. McNab has no official con- nection with the government, but was urged by Secretary Mellon, At- torney General Mitchell and Chair- I man Wickersham of the law en- forcement commission, as well as the president, to draft legislation for submission to congress in De- cember that would centralize pro- hibition enforcement under the justice department. Although describing it as a "bur- den," he said he felt it was his patriotic duty because no one "who has caught the spirit of the presi- dent on his ardent desile to make this country a law-abiding nation could, for a moment, hesitate to take up this task.", Abuses Bring Dsrepute The abuses which have ac- companied enforcement of the dry law have brought the act into "un- merited disrepute," he believes, and have broken down the legal machinery through the clogging of the courts. Long a friend of the chief ex- ecutive, and a guest since Monday at the White House, he regards the reforms suggested by the presi- dent as badly needed and has un- dertaken his task with the reserva- tion that he will receive no com- pensation or reward. He will have at his disposal the findings of the enforcement commission. "It must be understood," he said, "that these reforms do not concern alone the enforcement of the laws in support of the eighteenth amendment. The proposal looks1 to the relief of the courts from their present congestion. Legal Machinery Broken "The abuses which have undeni- ably accompanied the enforcement of the dry law have brought that act into unmerited disrepute. "The legal machinery of the country has broken under the strain. Courts have been clogged, abuses have arisen and practices have developed which call for definite reform. "That reform, the president pro- poses, shall be prompt and effec- tive. "Congress will convene Decem- ber tenth. By that time it is hoped that a definite plan with drafts of necessary laws will be ready for submission. "Such is the wish of the presi- dent, and to the fulfillment of that wish I shall devote my fullest en- ergy." Fifteen sororities at Northwest- ern are competing for a silver cup in a drive to secure subscriptions for the university's new literary magazine. The teams of sales- women have taken the names of popular authors, ranging from James Joyce to S. S. Van Dine. SPIRIT WORSHIPPING PRTAuthorities in Principa".
