More than 1000 enlistments Of
United States coast guard men VIII
expire on July 1, 1t was announced
here today At least two-thirds OF
these will not re-enlist, putting a
big hole in the coast guard anti
rum organization, officials said.
A new campaign to obtain men
will be instituted at once.

and other fine wines and liquors,
mart of the stock of Sir Frederick
HartweIl, the British nobleman said
to have lost a fortune in liquor
smuggling, is slowed here, await
ing order Of the courts.
= A number Of seized rum ships
are also at New London awaiting
court disposition.
- Coast guard officials disclosed
that by an intensive campaign
against rum runners during the
summer they hope to break up the
smuEglers shore organization,
driving those who have been de-
pending on the Illicit liquor traffic
for the livelihood, to. other occupa-
tons.
If a temporary but intensive
campaign can accomplish this re-
suit, coast guard officials asserted
that later, when the winter let up
of the drive comes, the smugglers
will have great difficulty in re-
assembling their organizations.
An occasional smash at the rum
fleets, first on one front and then
on the other. will have the effect
OF keeping the smugglers in con-
slant state of confusion, according
to Commander Stephen Yandle,
aide to Admiral F. G. Billiard, com.
nlandant of the coast guard.
