nightly out from the Atlantic coast to
the position of their liquor sources an
chored at sea TO take in loads and race
with them into unfrequented inlets, there
to be met by truck caravans to trans
port the wet stores inland The big DIFF
ficulty is in detecting and catching these
motor boat fleets while actual operations
are In progress. Their methods are ex-
tremely clever. They know the pOiL IS
along the coast that are carefully watched
" the coast guard. They select as I
} ase Of operations points and times for

Prohibition officials know these tricks
OF the bootleg importers, but confess
themselves pOwerless. Occasional detec-
ton Of liquor ship Is reported by GUS
toms or coast guard authorities. But these
1etections are isolated and exceptional
They reveal no reliable safeguard against
the continued heavy flow of foreign
liquors for the American market, possibly
for many years to come.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Liquor Snug
Cling is now the real prohibition prot
lem. No single phase of whisky law en-
forcement rivals smuggling. Its present
danger and the potential menace it holds
for enforcement over the United States
are recognized. Dry officials are alarmed
over it, as they are over no other angle
Of the Volstead law puzzle.
Officials, eager to see law observance
throughout the country, now find 1t i'm
possible, with their limited funds and
personnel, to do more than confne their
activity to detecting violations on land.
Under pressure for economy, prohibition
officials have abandoned a program, ten
tatively mapped out. for sea patrol, to
perform service off the Atlantic coast.
Maintaining a sea patrol along the three
mile limit zones off the coast would in
volve such a heavy outlay of public funds
that higher officials deem it impracticable
at this time. With the economy idea
spreading rapidly through all Govern
ment agencies, it Is not believed that Of
fcials who would be empowered to pass
upon such a plan would o. *, a project
for a prohibition sea patrol.
81. OOO, 900
FOR UPKEEP.
The cost of upkeep for an official sea
patrol, as a part Of the prohibition unit
of the Treasury, would involve probably
100000 a year at the lowest calculation.
The present policy of the Budget Bureau
favors a drastic cutting Of funds already
allowed by Congress for dry law work,
rather than any new proposal involving
heavier OUTLAWS of public funds.
Treasury officials believe that not mora
than one out of every 1000 smugglers
are caught coming into the United States.
The smugglers ere known to be entering
coves and inlets, with their valuable car
goes, all along the coasts. Smuggl rs
are growing holder on the Canadian AMI
Mexican borders. Smuggling operations
on the boundaries and coasts have grown
upon an amazing scale, as the bootleg i'm
porters have gradually become wise to
the lack of police opposition.
The stern realities of the smuggling sit
nation are b ,coming more and more aP-
parent to prohibition officers. They have
zone to extremes to check the flow Of
liquor illicitly from bonded warehouses
They have that end of the problem very
yell In hand. But the never ending
stream of fine imported WHISTLES and
wines Of foreign make that are seeping
through thousands OF routes Of ingress
into the United States has brought
new problem that is admittedly battling.
Liquor ships have a legal right to
bring liquor stocks close up to the three
mile limit off American shores. They
cannot be stopped or questioned, as long
as they do not enter American ports.
Large scbOOners now are being used by
bootleg combinations for this purpose.
Bootleg promoters maintain fleets of the
Speediest motor boats, built to transpOr:
heavy loads.

regulating dress were passed In order
to preserve class distinctions. IL was
argued that you could scarcely tell
the common people from their betters.
Alsol II must be remembered that In
those days the idea OF the freedom
and dignity OF the individual man had
not been at all clearly conceived. The
common man was scarcely considered
an individual being at all. but merely
| Il part OF the state and Of the church,
and obedience was his highest virtue.
| The idea OF individual liberty seems
to have sprung up during the Renais~
sance. This idea steadily grew. and
during the last two centuries IL has
borne fruit in series of political up-
| heavals, which have upset thrones
and created new nations, all founded
upon the theory that men should be
| free and that human individuality is
the final object of civilization. Ii was
| this spirit which gave birth 10 our
own nation and which animated
| George Washington and Patrick
Henry. There is no finer expression
OF this spirit in its political aspects
than that found in Patrick Henry S
Bill OF Rights and in his famous ora
*ion defending it.
II is strange that in America today
| Il is not the spirit OF Patrick Henry
but that of Cato. the Roman censor,
