II MILE LIMIT SET
AS DRY BOUNDARY
Attorney Generals Office Finds
Statute to Cover Libel on
British Schooner.

Washington.-The dry boundaries Of
the United States were set twelve
miles out at sea. The old three mile
zone, bordering which booze running
craft might scurry unmolested, became
a thing of the past.
That momentOus decision was reach
ed by the United States attorney gen.
erals office in giving authorization to
United States Attorney William Hay
ward of New York to bring libel pro-
ceedings against the British schooner
Henry L. Marshall, seized by coast
guard men off the Jersey shore.
The decision of the government to
press the case against the Britisher
came after some hours of doubt and
only after Mr.. Hayward had laid his
case fully before Acting Attorney Gen.
eral Golf and they had gone over the
evidence in a thorough discussion.
Then it was announced that Mr..
Haywards investigation had shown
that the schooner had violated both
the Folstead and the custom laws. The
alleged smuggling act violation, If up-
held as grounds for checking the op.
erations of rum running craft, will put
an end to the hopes of those American
citizens who were still hoping that real
booze may vet be brought into the
country. The three mile limit, which
used to be sort of joke, now appears
to have been a sad joke
Acting Attorney General Golf, until
receipt of Mr.. Hayward's record of evi.
Cence in the Marshall case, appeared
to be in uoubt as to the grounds for
the seizure, and even expressed the
opinion informally that the action of
the coast guard captain appeared to
have been of doubtful legality" Later
facts, however, changed his attitude
and he said it now seems clearly estab.
lished that the schooner was violator
and liable to penalties Of the customs
and prohibition laws. Forfeiture OF
the vessel is likely, Colonel Golf said.
