 WASHINGTON, May PC. - Babe Ruth will be back in the Yankee line up tomorrow, Manager Huggins of the Yankees said tonight when informed of President JOhnsOn's action in fin ing the home run king for his tenn. peramental outburst in New York Thursday. But further than that Hug gins would make no comment.
 Ruth himself had left the park be- fore the league heads ruling became known, and efforts to locate him early tonight were without avail Manager Higgins declined to discuss his prob able selection of a field captain to succeed Ruth.
 President Johuson's determination to impose the fine and not an enforc- ed lay-off for Ruth was generally ap- proved by members of the team
 That Ruth had the sympathy of the fans at today's game was evident from the applause he received during batting practice.

Rum Flow Into Country
Increasing, Day Says
Squad From Capita! VIII Go to
Canadian Line. While Dry
NAVY Watches Coast

Recent reinforcement Of the prohibi-
tion squads here was explained yester-
day by Director Ralph A. Day, who said
that more liquor was reaching New
York from foreign ports and points in
Canada than ever before since he took
Office. He was going to send the special
squad from Washington to the Cana
dian border. he said, and get the dry
navy after the sea-going smugglers.
II am determined to do everything
that is possible to stop this deluge Of
foreign liquor" said Mr.. Day.
The prohibition forces on the border
would have the cooperation of the
state troopers, he said, some of whom
would be assigned to special duty along
the international boundary with in
structions to hunt whisky smugglers.
The dry navy is to patrol the New
York and New Jersey coast and pene-
trate inlets and other lurking places
in a search for whisky runners from
the Bahamas.
Carleton j. Oferman, of 275 Albany
Avenue Brooklyn, was one Of about
twenty persons arrested during the day
by agents from Brooklyn. He is ac-
cused of representing himself to be g
prohibition enforcement agent, his
alleged purpose being to borrow $50
from Samuel Siegel, who has restau-
rant at 912 Madison Street, Brooklyn.
'Oferman's friends said the charge was
ridiculous and would be found to be
based on q misunderstanding.
