Meanwhile, through an oversight

T|DWELL UPHELD

Treasury Department Slaps

Comes Too Late

1t Is no OF the business OF the col
iector of customs or of the surveyor
OF the port, hereafter. to conduct in
vestigations into opium smuggling or
eny other infractions of the law. out
side the scope of their usual and ordi-
nary employment, according to an
order just issued by the treasury de-
partment. Such Investigations are
made the business solely of the spe-
cial agents.
This ruling comes as distinct but
belated victory for Special Agent w.
II Tidwell over his old enemy. former
Collector Fred Stratton. but IL comes
too late to enable Tidwell TO triumph
greatly. Stratton being now out OF
office.
While Stratton was collector of the
port the relations between him and
Tidwell were so strained that they
would not even speak to one another
when they met in the corridors OF
the federal building
AS Special Agent Tidwell, the new
collector, J. Q. Davis. and the new
surveyor, Justus Wardeil. are all on
friendly terms, the railing probably
will not affect much change In the
present situation.
