NEW DRY CHIEF
FOR ALASKA IN
ACTIVE CHARGE
BIRGFELD TAKES ACTIVE CON
TROL OF FEDERAL DRY
SQUADS IN ALASKA
E. O. Birgfeld, Deputy Federal
Prohibition Administrator for Alas
ka, who with Mrs. Birgfeld arrived
last week at Juneau has assumed
active charge of Federal prohibition
forces and work in the Territory, re
lieving A. G. Means, Acting Director
of Enforcement for the past three
years, according to the Juneau Em
pire. The latter’s transfer to the
States was announced by Administra
tor Lyle shortly after he assumed
his office, to take effect after Mr.
Birgfeld had assumed office.
Mr. Birgfeld declined to make any
comment on future policies or ac
tivities of the Alaska unit. “I am
not going to make any promises or
. statement at this time, nor until I
. have had sufficient time to look over
■the situation and become thoroughly
familiar with every phase of our
I work and its problems,” he said to
a representative of The Empire. “I
realize,” he said, “Alaska has a
. peculiar situation all its own, and
, I want to study it and local con
ditions before making any comment
on matters affecting or relating to
our work.”
For the present, at least, special
agents who have been working in
the Territorial unit will continue
in their present capacities, Mr. Birg
feld indicated. “No changes are
contemplated in the personnel of the
Alaska force until I have had time
to investigate all of the unit’s ac
, tivities,” he said. “I expect full co
operation from all Territorial offi
cials as -well as from Federal offi
cers,” he added.
The new prohibition chief for the
Territory is not entirely unacquaint
ed with Alaskan conditions and peo
ple. He said he had been in the
Territory several times and added,
“I am glad to get back to it.”
He recently came to Seattle from
Washington after a conference with
Prohibition officials there. He con
ferred with Administrator Lyle for
several days at Seattle before sail
ing for Alaska.
Mr. and Mrs. Birgfeld will make
their home in Juneau and -were
looking for a house today. Mrs.
Birgfeld, formerly Miss Gladys M.
Hilyer, of Washington, D. C., is
prominent in eastern musical cir
cles, appearing both in concert and
in radio programs. She had the
distinction of giving a recital in
Carnegie Hall, New York City, and
was on programs broadcasted from
some of the largest radio stations,
including WRC and WJZ, Washing
ton and New York stations of the
Radio Corporation of America, and
WO AJ, another large Washington
station.
Miss Elizabeth Robb sang a hymn
in church at St. Catherines, Canada,
and just as she finished a line about!
“blessings from above” a falling or- j
gan pipe struck her on the bean.
London actresses objected ot wear
ing uncomfortable straight-line cor
sets of thirty years ago in a play of
that period, so the costumes were
changed.
