NEVER FREE FROM TROUBLE
Border Between United States and
Mexico Has Always Been Law
less Strip of Country.

The border between the United
States and Mexico has been for a long
time one of the most troubled, roman
tic and lawless in the western hemi.
sphere. Not only do the Mexican revo-
lutionists periodically start something
by shooting or raiding across the line,
hut this border also affords one of the
finest opportunities in the world for
smuggling. A large part of the opium
which Is consumed by addicts in this
country comes by way of the Mexican
border, and an Illicit business in arms
and ammunition goes the other way.
In the old days stealing horses in
Mexico. driving them across the river
and selling them in the United States
was thriving industry and It is prob.
ably still carried on to some extent. In
the old days 1t was known politely as
the wet horse trade" because the
horses were often sold when they were
still wet.
Inc border country Is admirably en-
lowed by nature for these lawless do
ings. 1t Is fiat. near-desert country. too
dry for farming, but not too dry to sup

Ice before the war the Anchor line had
four first-class vessels-the Columbia,
the Caledonia, the California and the
Cameronia. OF these only the first
named remains. The others were lost
during the war. When 1.-THE four C.'s''

Americans Get the Berths.
One or two vessels have been char
tered for single runs, but they are not
fitted for carrying large numbers of
passengers, and they can do little to
relieve the situation. So the chances
are that many of those people desir-
Gus of going to America will be unable
to do so.
For this Americans themselves will
be somewhat to blame. Large num-
bers of them have already booked
eastward, and also return
passages later in the year. The round
trip Is booked In New York. and the
offices of the lines here are simply in
formed that so much westward &C.

there are more people DESTROYS OF

available steamship berths from Glas.
gov are booked until the middle OF

there have been more applications for

In the early months of any year before
the war;
To Canada there are also SO many
prospective emigrants that the ship
ping companies engaged in the Glas-
igow-St Lawrence service cannot guar
antee passages earlier than July.
1t is evident, therefore, that there is
a general inclination to leave the Unit
ed Kingdom, and to take up life in
the United States or Canada. For a
short time after hostilities closed 1t
seemed that settlement at home would
appeal strongly to ex-service men,
The government promised them land
and houses on reasonable terms. But
the process of industrial and social re-
construction has been slow and the
land and houses seem still very far
Off. Besides, there is good deal of
unemployment, caused mainly by the
confusion into which industry has
drifted as result Of the stopping of
war work, and the lack of new indus
tries to absorb all the war workers.
Then again, although wages are high,
the cost of living is even higher in
proportion, and there seems no imme-
diate prospect of any reduction in the
prices of food or clothes. There Is
continual call for greater production
of manufactures for export so that the
rate of exchange may be put right, bur
the great mass Of the workers persist
in looking upon higher wages as of
more Importance than increased pro-
tduction, and the output, even OF new
ships, remains much too low.
