Customs Officials Open
Campaign Against
Smuggling
MANY PARCELS
ARE CONFISCATED
Action Taken At Re-
quest Of'AcrOss-River
Merchants

There was a panic among women
who landed in Windsor from Detroit.
between noon and s o'clock. Friday
afternoon. when each one was ex-
amined thoroughly for concealed
goods by Mrs. Martha White, Gus
toms inspector from Ottawa, and
her assistant. When the inspectors
had finished, q large amount of con-
iscated goods lay about the Gus
toms once.
This action was taken because Of
the complaints OF Windsor mer-
chants that a great amount OF duti-
able goods was being smuggled into
Ontario by Windsor housewives
trading In Detroit. The success OF
the inspectors in finding concealed
goods seemed TO show that the
Windsor merchants we're justified
in their protests.
When the women we're stopped at
the dock and directed to enter the
customs ONCE, many OF them tried
to escape from the four male ON
GERS who patroled the wharf. The
fact that no package were to be
seen only made the officers more
insistent that the women visit the
little back room where the women
we're conducting the search. Waists
and stockings appeared to be favor
ite hidiag-places for ''contraband." I"
Many women protested that they
were citizens OF the United States.
but this made no difference to the
Officers.
Many OF the women readily ad-
mitted that they had dutiable goods
about their persons. produced them.
and paid the duty. Others protest.
ed until the concealed articles were
taken from their persons, and then
gave way to tears. Telephone calls
implored the aid OF male relatives
and friends, but the officers paid no
heed to protests or threats. Some
goods were confscated because the
women had no money with which to
pay the duty. Some women were,
allowed TO go home on the promise
that they would return and pay the
duty on the goods they had brought
In. The Dominion government gained
several hundred dollars through
Mrs. Whites activity.
Mrs. White and her assistant con.
tinued their search, Saturday. They
said that they may remain In Wind
sor Indefinitely. II the smuggling
continues.

HONOLULU, March 27.--The
missing submarine IA will be raised
to the surface today. Reports early
this morning were that the vessel,
located by graphing irons late yes
terday 800 feet beneath the waves,
would probably be brought up be-
fore noon. Wreckers believed this
possible.
That the submarine Is the steel
tomb OF her two officers and 10 men
is accepted. Naval construction ex-
perts and drivers say it is futile to
hold hopes for their lives. Quanti-
ties of oil--the "a was an oil burn
er--which came to the surface when
the wrecking vessels found and at
tempted to tow the vessel to more
shallow water make 1t certain In
the minds of all here that no life
remains aboard the sunken craft
There Is but one chance in a mil
lion. Rear Admiral Moore, com.
mandant OF the naval station, thinks,
that lives may be spared. This one
chance is that small, special oxy-
genized emergency compartments
may have been the refuge for a few
OF the crew from the inrushing
waters.

built TO Withstand water pressure at

planning that he had been shot in
the leg. He could hardly put his
right foot TO the ground. He ripped
open his trouser leg and could find
no bullet mark. Then we discovered
that he had been shot through the
forearm and that the wound was
hours old
To be hit feels like being punched.
80 many soldiers have told me.
When a man sank In our trenches
the fellows who were not busy
usually gathered around him while
someone ran two miles through the
trenches TO get Red Cross man.
Within half an hour the Red Cross
man would come. II the wound was
not bad the man would remain in
the trenches after the doctor had
soaked Il In iodine. which burns like
fre. if-the wound was serious. the
doctor would do the best he could in
the way Of dressing II and then one
OF us. or perhaps two. would be de-
tailed TO take the unlucky man back
to safety. He had to be carried
through two mi.es OF trenches. II
was impossible to use stretcher
swing. owing TO the sharp turnings.
and. II you carried man on your
back. you had to be careful at many
places to keep his head down below
the trench walls as well as your
own. One Of our fellows who had
been wounded in the leg. and was
being carried on the back of com
rade. was shot through the head and
killed one day at one OF the many
dangerous turnings In our trench
system.
After this twomile trench journey
was ended, the man had TO be car.
ried along pathway down a 2o0-foot
cliff. Here he was safe from bullets
or shells. but a warm. clean hospital
bed was still millions OF miles dis
tant. Here he would be taken into
q peasants house. where the first
aid men were on duty. There would
be nothing but straw for him to lie
upon. The first-aid men would dash
cold water into his face. wash his
wounds and bind them as best they
could. Then the wounded man would
lie on the straw until nightfali, for
II was necessary TO carry him
through nring zone to get back to
the innrmary. which was another
little house In town a mile distant.
He would either be wheeled along
