Except for the strenuous efl
OF superintendent Peters and a gen

experts who have examined the road
conditions and the heaviest fall Of
snow in many years.
More than $50 feet Of snow fell on
the mountain last year. measured by
the government weather observer
from day to day. and that accumu-
iation settled to form an icy mass
averaging more than rs feet thick.
Tourists will go into Paradise Van

will park their cars In stalls dug in

thru a tunnel excavated in the huge

out.
These are the statements of Immi-
grafton Inspector Whaien OF this dis
trict. in whose territory much OF the
smuggling has been going on. He
has asked for aid
we have learned that within the
past few months almost $4,000 Chi
nese have been landed In Cuba. says
whalen. According to the state
ments we got from some OF the
smuggling parties that we have
rounded up, these Chinese remain in
Cuba only long enough to make ar
rangements with the srnugRlcrs TO
be landed on the Florida coast.
THE fact that all the Chinese who
have been arrested in this vicinity
are plcntifully supplied with money
funds to defray court expenses indi.
Gates that there is a wcll-organized
smuggling combine at work"

The coast OF Florida Is an ideal
