Pinchot's Next Fight Looms Over Appointments to Service Commission
Worsening clash between Hoover and Senate widens as Pinchot prepares a new showdown over posts on the service commission. The Wickersham report will fault lax enforcement on corruption and local officials, urging stronger state and local cooperation while not endorsing legalization or referendums. The commission may sign the report with possible separate opinions and its release to President Hoover early next week. The Supreme Court fast tracks the 18th Amendment challenge, set for January 21, as Prohibition Director Woodcock expresses optimism about enforcement.
