MAY PUT GATES
.ONBORDERLINE
Only Way to Stop Wild
Driving of Booze Tour
lists from Canada.

Because all roads lead to Rum,
citizens of Jackson. Maine. and all
the Maine towns on the border of
wet Canada take their lives in their
hands when they venture to walk or
motor in the highways.
Filled with hootch. hundreds of
joy-seeking tourists" are always
tearing at reckless speed along the
roads and through the towns.
A number of accidents have oc-
CURED recently and the sheriff here
now realizes that in hootch speeders
he has as hard a job as he has with
the bootleggers.
People of some border towns are
indignant and threaten to build
gates. like railroad crossing gates.
Not Jackman, however.
Jackman's Happy.
Five years ago Jackman had 400
inhabitants, one or two automobiles.
and very little of this worlds goods.
Most of the residents eked out a
slender living working in the lumber
camps
Today Jackman has nearly 1000
inhabitants, owns 120 cars, has
plenty of money and wears an II
should worry" expression.
'Jackman is almost on the border
of wet Canada.
Owners of hotels find their places
overlooking and many Of the places
in the northern part of the State
have enlarged their houses. Garages
have sprung up like mushrooms, but
they cannot accommodate the trade.
OniciaIs' Side of II.
officials say they are almost
powerless to stop booze traffic.
SCan I and my deputy go out and
search every car that comes across
the border" said the sheriff at Jack
man. ''of course not.-The best we
can do is to let the people who go
there to get a bottle for their own
consumption get by with 1t and
look out for the big rum runners"
The profits are so high that many
are willing to take the risk. The
average profit on a case is $50 and
cargoes run as high as thirty cases.
SO that the profit from single trip
Is $500
But Jackman, Maine. the center OF
all this, Is not very much perturbed.
Jackman watches. the spree, keeps
out of the way of wild cars. buys
new luxuries and adds to its bank
accounts.
