TO GET PREMIER
OF JUCO-SLAV|A

Belgrade. June 27.-(By A. P.)-
Premier Nikola Pachitch of Jugo-
Slavia was attacked and slightly
wounded today shortly after leaving
the house of parliament. Six shots
were fired at him, one of which struck
his left hand as he was entering his
motor car. His action in dropping to
the bottom Of the car is thought to
have saved him from further injury or
possible death.
His assailant. man named Milutone
Raitch. Serbian, was arrested. He
ascribed his action to personal mo-
tlves. Raitch lives in Budapest, where
he is employed in bank.
The attack on the premier aroused
great indignation among the people of
the capitol. No political significance

Washington. June 27.-The govern

Continued, If not studied, violation
of the courts decision by an increas-
ing number Of foreign vessels enter
ing New York With large quantities
of beverage liquors under seal, 1t
was said, apparently made necessary
the drastic penalty of seizure not
only of the contraband bevera&es.
but of the ships themselves, ofucials
declared privately that the present
practice could not be tolerated much
longer.
High government officials At Z SER
les of conferences today discussed
the situation. A new treasuryoreg-
ulation was reported to have been
drafted, providing for additional dir
ections to customs officials to seize
all vessels found bringing in beyer-
age liquors even under foreign Gus
toms seals, after adequate notice to
foreign governments of the new and
more drastic policy. The instruc-
lions also would provide for the arr
rest of the captains of such ships.
1t was stated that an official state
ment on the question might be ex-
pected in Every few days"
If ships of foreign lines, officials
declared, continue to enter American
ports with liquor stocks under seal,
without resort to the court to pro-
tect their alleged rights, some ef-
fective step to deal with the situa-
ton is necessary. A ship seizure,
it is believed. would furnish prompt
ly the test case declared by foreign
ship owners to be desired.
Only one protest from foreign
ship representative has been for
warded to Washington. The formal
complaint by the master of the Brit
ish liner Berengaria made to the port
officials in New York was received
today by Mr.. Moss. It was sent to
the State Department for the con-
sideration Of Secretary Hughes.
Warehousing of the ship liquor al
ready seized in New York harbor
under the existing treasury rasnla-
tions is becoming a serious factor,
it was declared, and this government
does not propose to have the burden
grow.

ISOLATED Industries of Maine, and at
which the proposed law was given
broad discussion.

as an open forum and the privilege
was accorded to each speaker to ex-
press his or her views, whether pro

the session, called to order following
an elaborate luncheon. was presided
over by DR.. w. f. EIwell of Port

Maine industrial concerns plan to
carry on a vigorous campaign
against the proposed 4S-hour law
before the special election on Octo-
Der Is. That was made clear long
before this meeting. The ways ana
means through which this campaign
will be conducted were taken up at
today's gathering, and the organiza-
ton of committees was begun.
Through newspaper advertisements
and addresses by Maine speakers,
the message Of the opponents of the
proposed law will be spread through
out the State. Plans for this work

lowing committee which was select
