DRIVE AGAINST NEW
 MEXICAN BOOTLEGGERS

That determined drive is being launched immediately against boot leggers who have for some time been bringing liquor into this vicinity in large quantities from New Mexico was announced today by border GUS toms officers. Authority was given this statement. by Charles Fowler, collector of customs, who has been completing arrangements for such a campaign.
 Importation of liquor through New Mexico into southern Arizona has for some time been constituting the prin- cipal difficulty in prohibition enfor- cement in this federal district and no measure will be neglected to bring it to a halt immediately, it was stated.
 Officers Assigned
 Every available customs officer in Douglas have been ordered to take assignments in this movement to end liquor importations from New Mexico and roads through south ern Arizona leading from New Mex ico will be thoroughly patrolled. Forces of customs officers have been assigned to each of these roads and any attempt to continue entrance of liquor by this route will be averted.
 Seriousness of the situation which has arisen compelled federal authOri- ties to take drastic steps, with the object of breaking up the traffic Juickly.
