HARD TASK AMAID' FOR DRY OFFICERS Enforcement of Prohibition Far From Easy. Letter From Kramer. Washington, March 31.-DIfficulties in enforcing national prohibi'tion in clude 'hostile publfi sentiment, lack of cooperation by .the states, 'bootlegging on the iborders and issuance of too many dealers' permits, according .to John V Kramer, federal Iprohibition commissioner. What he terms as his "honest views" on prohibition were given iby Mr. Kramer in a letter to Senator Capper of Kansas and made public today by the latter. Commenting on charges that liquor was being sold openly by 393 New York saloons, Mr. Kramer detailed the problems of the "dry" enforcement au thorities. "In view of all these conditions and circumstances," said Mr. Kramer, "I believe we have made remarkable progress during the year or more in which 'the national prohibition act has 'been in existence. We still have much to do and will have for years to come. You can't turn the current of history overnight. Anything that has fastened itself upon political, econon.$c and personal history of our country as has 'the liquor traflic can not be removed in a day or a year." Mr. Kramer said the Vols cad law itself wiuq b d, that lie 'wn not ad Vocating any radical revision of the law .by congress and that enforce ment problems largely were adininig trative. Too many permits for medicinal i;relarations containing alcohol were issued originally, Mr. Kramer said. These have been reduced. Permits for inanufacturing industrial alcohol also are being curtailed and refused to those selling illegitimately. Summing up, M1r. K ramer saild lie believed failures of enforcement dur ing the past year were "due to the administration of the law more than they were to the law Itself." Among recommenildations made by the prohibition director to tighten up enforcement was; "Removal of wihis key to a few large and well guarded storehouses; increase of prohibition agents on the Canadian and Alexican iorders, and enactment of prohibition codes by all the states. To the specifle charge that 393 sa loons in New York are violating the law openly, Mlr. Kraminer wrote Sena tor Capper that "there are pflaces in New York city where liquor is sold more or less ol)enly but in none as it was sold prior tol;hibition." T bilk of the people. Mr. Knurner explained must 'avor enforcement be fore substantial h(eadway can be made an( this sentiment he said was large ly absent in New York and some other communities. Mr. Kraner said that while con gress had been criticised for providing inaldequate prollibition eiforcement funds, lhe was "disap1)piointed' in the reduact ion of deficiency a pp rolriatlons, whiche necessitated diischar'ge of about I1.0 men.
