Ten-Mile Limit
A Norway Guard
in Liquor Fight

ChriStian!a, Oct. 13.-Liquor SNUG
CLING into Norway. in violation of the
prohibition laws. has increased recent
~ at such a rapid rate that govern
ment officials are finding the work OF
suppression most difficult.
Smuggling on a large scale is gong
on all along the coast. the thousands
of island and fjords furnishing ideal
hiding places and operating bases for
the illegal traffic. The efforts of the
smugglers seem to be concentrated
about the inlet of the Christania-f ford
and here is established real market
place at the outskirts of the three
mile limit, swarming with German and
Danish liquor smuggling vessels.
Norwegian law now allows rove
nue. officials to search and bring in sus-
piciouS vessels as far out as 10 miles
from the coast. This extension of the
control district, however, has served
only to increase the difficult work Of
the officials.
So far other nations have not off,
cially accepted the extension Of Nor
ways water control to the 1O-r1ile
limit, and opponents of the law point
out that international complications
could easily arise should a foreign
boat be seized and forcibly brought in

percentage is being seized. The snug

boats to bring the goods from the stor-
age ships anchored outside Norwegian
waters. Submarine chascrs obtained
from the German Navy are ideal for
the work of the smugglcrs. These
boats are equipped with radio and
smoke screen apparatus. They arc in
constant wireless communication with
the shore, and are thus able to choose
the right moment for dash to the
beach.
The most serious handicap the gov
ernment has to contend with is the
coast population itself. which cooper

boats of the smugglers are out of

them At the recent annual meeting
of the organization of revenue officials
a resolution was passed saying it was
impossible to stop rum-running in
Norway. even if the officials were on
duty day and night and the govern

money for the work as is now avail

A Heart Warming Phrase

(Ino PuDllC Ledger
The Giving wage" is a beautiful
heart warming phrase, but every man
and every class reads a personal and
special meaning into it. To the track
laborer. just now, it means seventy
five cents per hour Tomorrow it
may mean more. Ceventy-five cents
an hour for him means a general,
proportional and differential increase
all the way up to those aristocrats of
the cab and the silver plated Ian
terms. Such an increase would add
better than s3,OoO,000,0OO year to
the payrolls and cause a deficit of
more than s2,241 100000 annually. On
the forty eight-cent basis the deficit
would amount to s37S,000,000.
Unless the Government took over
the lines and taxed the Nation to
pay the rail mems wages. the roads
would become twin streaks of rust
and grass would grow between the
ties. If this same theory was cX-
tended to other industries our feet
would be set on the Russian ladder.
1t would be grand thing if every
worker in America could have a '1iv-
ing wage" based on his own ideas Of
what a living wage" ought to be.
Unfortunately the money that meets
payrolls must come from somewhere
No industry, whether privately
owned, run by the Government or
operated by commune, could find
money enough to meet that kind Of a
payroll.

THE REPORTER AND THE
POLICE

The Superintendent of the New
York State Department Of Police has
brought out an interesting little vol
ume on 1.-THE Policeman's Art" as
taught in the State school for police.
The hypothesis is that the detection
and prevention Of cfimc is not an
exact science. ut is an art"
The chapter on "Tne Police and the
Press" is an informing presentation,
one that is worthy of general con-
sidetation. 1t shows that the re-
porter and the policeman are. con-
fronted by similar problems. For in
stance "both are appealed to by rea-
sonable and unreasonable persons to
do things that ought to be done and
that ought not to be done. Both
must be able to discriminate, quickly,
accurately, and, with what politeness
and diplomacy they are able to COM
mand." q
"Why shouldn't they try to UNDER
stand one another, to work together,
especially as understanding and CO.
operation are vital to the success of
botho" -
"Without newspapers gossip is UNI
restrained, rumors grow as they
spread and it is on,y when the print
Cd word appears that they are
checked by the publication of the
facts"
The truth of this will come home
to every reporter of experience, who
often has seen the attempt of people
to keep out of the columns of the
press news, which told fairly and
conscrvatively would be read and
forgotten, but which suppressed
serves by such Suppression to aggra-
vate the situation, whct curiosity and
keep alive the incident. Had the
matter been properly treated it soon
would have slipped from public mind.
News is the unusual, and so long
as crime is unusual it will be news"
IL crime becomes common it scarcely
will receive the attention it now
does, nor will editors emphasize it
with spread" heads. But to be eff
fective the reporter must have the

POTATOES HERE AND ABROAD

The production of potatoes in Ger
many has fallen off since the war.
The bulk of those now grown are for
household consumption. American
grain has taken the place of those
formerly used for making alcohol.
They are now being little used for
stock feeding purposes and the num-
Der of hogs is 40 percent below the
pre-war stock according to the con-
sular reports.
Some of the potato growers in our
own country will not be inclined to
oXpend much sympathy on Germany
because of this falling off in the
number of potato growers. Indeed a
like falling off in this country would
be welcomed by many, who believe
the high prices for potatoes in 1919
encouraged so many to go into the
growing of this crop that the entire
business is dcmoralized.

MAINE. TOLERANT EXCEPT TO
INTOLERANCE

The world had opportunity to see
+be sn,sndid effect of cooperation
among the religious creeds in rellev-
ing the curse of war; it has had OPP
portunity to see in Ireland the curse
of the~enimosity encouraged If not
inspired by crcedal prejudices. Is
the world an intelligent observer?
Having seen these demonstrations
having evidence of the truth, Will IL
approve any organization designed 10
bring the curse down on this fair
land:
The Ku Klux evidently is such an
organization. The fact that 1t works
in secret masks the faces OF those
responsible for its acts is all the
proof that is needed that 1t is an ob-
iectionablc organization. In Kansas
:, , town which some optimistic for
bear had. named Liberty. the Nu
Klux took the mayor. who had re-
fused to- rent hall to the oroer'
dragged him out of town and Sc
yerely fogged him. When Governor
Alton of that state heard of this he
promptly had the outrage lnVesu-
gated, then he began action to depore
from the State all officials of this or
der. Some regard this high-handed.
Il is. It is fighting fire with hfe.
Those who set the original hre start
something. Intolerance breeds in
tolerance, whether practised by
church or other organization, wheth-
err boldly and defiantly, or by skulk-
ing towards who dare not do their
deods except under cover of dis
puse. BY whomever begun, now
ever continued, it is a curse on the
community in which it operates.
No condition in Maine calls for
such drastic action as that by when
the Governor of Kansas reacted to
the outrage. We hope there never
will. 1t would be foreign to the real
tolerance of the Maine people. To this
tolerance Governor Baxter makes
most convincing appeal. He is rlgh'
in assuming the level headed citizens
will not allow themselves to be in
flucnced by the aims of this secfet'

forces in life is responsibility, and

limit to the evil they may do" He is
right IN believing that Maine people
want fair play, that, "If they oppose
man they do so out in the open"
"Thcre is no place here for

The efforts which are being put
forth in banding the legs of game
birds should warrant good results, a
better knowledge of the habits of the
birds, and awakened interest in the

ing is being done in Canada as well

land Bird Banding Association was
formed in 1921, securing about five
hundred members in this country and

dred collaborators. After all the eff
forts that have been made in trap
ping and banding the birds the need
of accurate data is being attended
to. Sportsmen and members of the

have been requested to keep a sharp
