UNCLE SAMWATCHIN CANADA
Special Measures Taken To Prevent
Smuggling By Way OF Northern
Ports

The Treasury Department at Wash
ington has taken steps to strengthen
the force of special agents employed by
the customs service on the Canadian
border. Additional secret agents have
been appointed and instructions have
been issued to all the agents to keep a
sharp lookout at the Canadian ports
which are the gateways of transatlantic
travel to intercept any attempt at
smuggling. The Department has a
mass of information collected by its
agents abroad showing the purchase of
many valuable articles by Americans,
but the articles have not been traced to
the port of New York or any of the
other Atlantic ports of entry, and there
is a suspicion in official circles that the
purchasers have been frightened away
from New York by the publication of
the news of seizures that have been
made there recently and may try to
bring the goods in through the Cana
dian ports. Montreal and Quebec are
being watched with special care. as
they are the principal ports of entry
for European travellers returning by
way of Canada.
