Not Defend Canada
Against America

Ottawa, Ont, March 23.-(AP) -
Britain will never take any steps to
defend Canada against possible ag-

late Lord Fisher, former head of the

In such an eventuality," Lord FISH

Coast Guard Raped
And Praised in
Matter of Prohibition

Boston, March 23.-(AP)-The value
of the coast guard in suppression of
liquor smuggling has been assailed and
upheld in an exchange of views be-
tween United States District Attorney
Williams and the New England COM
mander of the guard. Captain Preston
Uberroth 1.-The coast guard was a
fine body of men in the old days be-
fore prohibition came into effect"
said Mr.. Williams in an address before
the Massachusetts State Federation of
Womens Clubs. Their duties con-
sisted of saving lives off shore, and
salvaging any property that was in
peril. But with the enactment of the
Volstead act it was found that large
portion of these men were absolutely
incompetent.
ITO check the liquor smuggling
along the coast it was believed the
coast guard was the strongest force
available. In order to handle the ever
increasing rum running 1t was neces-
sary to recruit a large crew and some
of the men, those inclined to take
brides, have put dent in the enforce
ment of the law"
When Captain Uberroth was told or
Mr.. Williams remarks he admitted a
few men In the enlisted personnel had
caused trouble, but said these were
promptly ousted.
Its the same old coast guard ne
declared II have not found any men
in the New England division guilty OF
taking bribes There have been cases
in New York and New London. Such
breaches are in nearly every case in
the enlisted personnel l say the coast
guard is as strong as it ever has been
despite the few infractions in the
ranks. Williams blames the smaliness
of pay as one cause of bride taking.
"Oficials of the coast guard are DO
ing all they can to better the situa-
ton, but they pay the men so little
that you can't blame them The men
get $40 a month and are apt to ran
when they are offered bride of 800
for a half hours job"

 People st the annual regatta in recen' years have been frightened by low Hiers Certain aviators engag- ed by moving picture companies in psat years have filmed the spectacle from the air, In doing so, the ma chimes have flown at such low aIti- CIdes that the propeller of one am- phteian plane from Mineola last year blew spray into the faces of spectators on pleasure craft below. The state police were poweriess to lo anything about it, because the f7ier made off without coming down. If the offenders succeed in flying out Of the state before being apprehend- ed, they cannot easily be brought to court in Connecticut,
 To guard against the practice in the future, therefore the plan of forcing down the offending aviators has been decided upon.
 Up to now, the aviation division of the state motor vehicle department has made use of planes Of the 11Sth Observation Squadron, c. N. G.. for it's work. Military planes will be used for the police who work in connection with the boat races. A Laird Swallow plane has now been put at the disposal of the state by private interests for use whenever occasion requires. It will be kept at Brainard field, Hartford.
