rum runners seized by the American
authorities during the last six months

He thought it an impertinence that
Englishmen should attempt to over.
ride a law that a sister nation had
chosen for it's own good. Shouts of
shame were heard when he said
rum running was most dishonorable
to Great Britain.
Referring to many manufactured

the lack of effectiveness Of prohibition
in the United States, he said:
