The Senator returned to his Of
flee and rang to have the boy sent
to him. The boy came to theoffice
timidly, just bit consciousness trick-
en-. wondering II his remark had been
overheard and ready for the penalty.
AS the lad twisted his hands and
nervously stood on one foot before tn
gaze of those twinkling dark eyes
fixed on him by the man at the desk,
he felt the hand of Uncle Mark on
his shoulder:
$50 you wish you had old Hannas
money and he was in the poorhouse,
Ell? Suppose your wish should be
granted, what would you do?"

to get you out of the oorhoupse."
The Senator laughed and sent the
boy back TO his work. Today he is

Deputy Smyth Wants Drastic Measures in Case of Wealthy

Special from United Press)

(Spec1aI rom sDn1tGQt ProSS1
 New York. Sept. 17.-Smugg1ing by the very rich and socially prominent will never be stopped at the port of New York until some shining lights are given prison sentences. is the opin- ion of Deputy Surveyor George J. Smyth, before whom most persons for failure to declare dutiab1e goods are taken. Payment of fine and forfeit ure of the smuggled goods is no de- terrent, he says, and the surveyor in unison to have some of the many wealthy persons now awaiting trial not only fined but given prison sen tences should they be convicted.
 As soon as Collector Loeb returns from his hunting trip in the Rockies there will be a conference between the surveyor, General Nelson H. Hen ry. the collector and District Attorney Wise Plans for pushing the prosecu- ton of several of the most fragrant cases will then be made.
 Returnine tourists, customs officials say, often openly boast on shipboard ernment. . They swear they have no dutiabIez articles and, when cornered and the goods disclosed, weep and protest they meant no h9rn1- When selves they take the position that they bought the articles with their own money. that they considered them the1r personal property and that the govern private property intended for personal use.
 A fine means nothing to most of this class of offenders, according to offi- .cials. and they are of the opinion that the smuggling will continue until it is made plain the offenders cannot avoid the penitentiafy.
 IT is believed by the port officials that the total collections for the port of New york for the current year will total 1$,211,3 347.
