Lord sot his first Information of the raiding- party. It was said, after the work had been completed. Director Day and Chief Parsons said they were well pleased with the. results. The raiders used a hlh -powered automobile and covered practically all sections of Brooklyn.

In some instances they had search warrants, bavin- previously procured evidence. Einstein said they had no difficulty In ret tin liquor in any of the places visited. Director Day some time aco declared Brooklyn the wettest borough in the city, but a specfal detail of agents In that territory for more than a week produced only about a dosen cases. The raid yesterday was the first big attempt to clean up Brooklyn alnce that time. The most prominent place visited was the Hole In the Wall." at 137 Plerre-pont Street.

Issy walked over to a coat hanging- behind the bar. and In a pocket found a quart of good liquor. A large quantity of alleged good beer was also found. A' summons was left for Alfred J. Hoenings.

In the cellar of the saloon 'of Peter Luger. Broadway, opposite the Williamsburg Bridge Plasa. the ag-ents got a truckload of Imported wines and liquors.

CAMP DIX.

X. June 4." Don't worry about me; stay there and make a strong fight for the right and may you win." This mmag from his wife, ill In Boston, reached Major Malcolm Wheeler Nicholson today, following the refusal of the War Department to permit him to visit Mrs. Wheeler Nicholson and to postpone his court-martial on the charge of golna- over the head of his superiors In writing to the President about alleged abuses and Prussisnism In the regular army. The Major, in an appeal to the Secretary of War last week, which is still -unanswered, said his wife's physician urged hla presence in Boston. Cheered by his wife's message and reports from her bedside, Msjor Wheeler Nicholson said tonight he was ready for the big ordeal of the court-martial sea-slon tomorrow.

He said he was willing to be a martyr to improve conditions for junior officers. HARDING AROUSED. TO ACT AS LEADER Contlaaed from Page 1, Column 2. leader must begin to take account of political stock in preparation for going oerore tne country witn a class or roods that the electorate will care to buy. in a wasninirton aisoatch in me Nw York Times of May 31 it waa pointed out that the time had come when Presi dent Hardin a would be oblired to de termine whether he should adhere to his policy of non-interference with Uie orO' weses of the Congress or assert leader hip in legislative matters affecting the barty welfare.

Mention waa made in that dispatch that the pending Ship Sub- Idr bill, which tne Administration pre fers to call a merchant marine com pensation bill, was dearer to the Presl- ent heart than any other measure now before Congress, and he desired It enacted during the present Congressional session. Veaterdav'a conference at the White Houre between' the President and Speaker Klliott, Representative Mondell, the Republican floor leader, and Representative Campbell. Chairman of the powerful Committee on Rules, served to show tht Mr Hirdlnt had taken the Subsidy bill as the foundation for a strong- hint that unless Congress speeaea up its legis lative program the President would be la-cd to taKe commana oi party inier sis in Senate and House. Invites Frank Expression. It is not difficult for Congressional leaders to discuss matters with Mr.

Mara- ing. He invites frank expression and la ready to engage In a give-and-take rgument. He has shown no disposition to assert an autocratic attitude, which is one of the temptations growing out of the power and Influence of the Presidential office. It may have been on ac count of this characteristic of the President that his conferees frankly combat ted his contention that it was essential to pass the Merchant Marine bill before the adjournment of the conrres- slonal session. At any rate, Mr.

Hard- ing found opposition to his views as to party procedure In the legislative branch, and his visitors went away with the feeling that he was blaming the House for a condilton of legislative delay for which the slow-going and delib-' erative Senate was responsible. It cannot be said that the President i has locked horns with Congress, but I the evidence at hand indicates that the stubborn trait In his nature has been aroused, and that horn-Iockln will be inevitable if the leaders in the Senate and House do not heed the President admonition that certain Important legislation must be enacted before candidates for renomlnation and re-election carry out their desire to get back to their constituencies for what promises to be an extremely hectic campaign. The nest week or so should bring Interesting developments. The Soldiers' Bonus bill may bring the real test of the President's apparent intention to follow his own course if the leaders uf hU party in Congress will not listen to his advice as to what i best for the party and th-s country. There has not been the slightest deviation from his expression of opposition to the Hoije bonus nifasure.

with its omission -A any provirion for the enormous sum necessary to meet its alms. Still Firm on BSonas Bill. A few days aso Mr. Harding Indicated that he had not changed Ills mind since he told Chairman Kordney of the House Committer on Ways and Means, that provision for raislnc revenue to pay the bonus through Increases In present forms of direct taxation was ob noxious to him. He made It i lear then that the sales tax was the only method he would sanction as a revenue raider, In cons-quenio of this, the Wava and Means Committer modified the biil so as I to omit altjgithvr any revenue-raising features, and th nicaur wax passed by the Hcu In that form.

The Sen- i ate Committ-je on Finance has followed the same line, which is to i be as obnoxious to the PresMfjit as the original Hoiuo bill which brought hi. condemnation. All the indications are that the Prni. dent will veto the Bonus bill If it fails to provide for raising revenue to pay the Don us or. ii any revenue raiser is at- tached.

the means authorized is not the Bales tax. From what is hunt In Administration circles, the Presi- dent does not intended to be in- fluenced by the spectacle tomorrow of Senator McCumber. Chairman of the Finance Committee and author of the' benate Bonus bin. marching from the Senate office building to the Capitol car rying in his inds the: Finance Committee's favorable report on the bill, surrounded by a large contingent of ex-service bonus rooters. Mr.

Harding has made no threat of veto, but the private expressions that have come from hinr. of his adherence to his prior stand seem to be cspabte of no other Interpretation than that the bonus promoters are riding for a fall if they do not amend the bill to conform to the President's expressed wishes.
