DECREASE IN RUM
RUNNING REPORTED
Traffic From Canada on In
crease, However, Justice
Department DiScIoSeS.

Although liquor smuggling from the
high seas has been greatly diminished,
the traffic over the Canadian border
is on a sharp increase, according to
the Department of Justice.
Explaining the situation to Congress
in the annual report of the Attorney
General, Mrs Mabel Walker Willie
brandt Assistant Attorney General,
pointed out that the great bulk of
this trade is carried on through the
waters of the Great Lakes and their
connections"
Although the report submitted to
Congress was written some time ago,
it was filed in the midst CT big drive
by Federal officials to clean UP affairs
in Detroit. where several members Of
the Federal force itself have been ac-
cuSed of completely in the smuggling
situation.
Official Record Made.
ut is possible to gauge the volume
of liquor smuggled across our northern
boundary a little more accurately than
that occurring in other places" Mrs.
Willebrandt said, because a substantial
amount of the liquor passes through
Canadian customs, and official record
is made thereof.
In practice, the liquor runner clears
his cargo regularly through the Cana
dian customs before proceeding to
evade the United States customs in
making delivery No one would con-
tend that all of the liquor which is
smuggled across the northern bound
airy passes regularly through the Cana
dian customs. The volume is probably
much greater than those records Will
show. However, available data which are
taken from statistical bulletins issued
by the Department of Trade and Com
merce of Canada indicate that this
traffic is immense in its proportions
and is increasing.
In order that this situation may be
visualized, there is set out below the
quantity and value of the whisky ex-
portations from Canada to the United
States covering the calendar years of
1925 and 1926 and the two years end
ing June 80, 1927, and June 80, 1928,
respectively. as indicated in these Of

lishment of closer cooperation between
the States having Indian populations
and the Federal Government" the re-
port continues. Probably States should
ultimately assume complete responsible
ity for the Indians within their bor-
ders. but pending that time there is
much to be done by the Federal serv-
ice."
$5,299,149 in Repayments.
Settlers on % of the "a reclamation
projects repaid S5,229,149 during the
year and Secretary West attributes this
to the general prosperity of the prof.
ects mad to the new terms of payment
established for delinquents under the
relief act of 1926
Crops valued at $133,207,21O have
been grown on the projects comprising
l,956.910 irrigable acres developed at
o cost of SITS, ,945. while settlers are
still needed on 100000 acres. Works
under construction involve an eXpendi-
ture of $90,OOO.OOO out of the Bureau
of Reclamation's revolving fund of
S166 100000.
Studies by the Geological Survey dis
closed that in this country and Alaska
65 developed oil and gas fields are pro-
ducirg 100000 barrels of oil an
nually. 1t added that there are four
million acres of oil shale from which
SO billion barrels of oil may be pro-
duced

consideration establishment of flying

tary West has called conference of

sources of energy at the expense Of
water power"
BY July, 1928, the report states. total
development had increased to approx
mately 100000 horsepower, of which
about 100000 horsepower is under or
subject to Federal jurisdiction. In adj
dition, licenses have been issued for
about 100000 horsepower that have
not yet been completed.
AS to the prospects for the future
the report points out, about $500, 900
horsepower is under investigation, and
100000 horsepower, which includes
the foregoing, is involved in applica-
tons not yet acted upon by the COM
mission.
There is. therefore, every prospect
that the construction of new develop
ment will continue for a long time to
come" the report adds. Although new
applications declined about 25 per cent
during the year, the commission de-
clares that the results of single year
are not sufficient to indicate a general
tendency.

the prior year, she said, while forfeit
ureS during the same period increased
from 20 to %, making the risk much
more hazardous for operators and own
erS.
Customs and prohibition officials also
had operated against some vessels from
contiguous or nearby foreign countries.
In 1928 total of $40 domestic craft
were seized as rum runners, Mrs. Willie
brandt continued. and of that number
TIA, or Al per cent. were captured off
the coast of Florida with cargoeS for
the most part directly from the Ba-
hama Islands
During the year, Mrs. Willebrandt
reported. there was an increase of 49,
020 in the number of criminal prohibi-
ton cases instituted by the department,
bringing the total for the year to S.
729. Of these, she said, the department
secured 48.826 convictions, with jail
sentences totaling 7,700 years and fines,
penalties and forfeitures aggregating
S7.303.563. There were "a convictions
for each acquittal she added.

Attorney General Sargent especially
urged Congress to consolidate all legal
Offices under the Department of JUS
tice, reiterating his recommendation of
a year ago that proceedings to remove
persons charged with violations of the
Federal law from one district TO an
other be simplifled.
The Attorney General also transmit
ted the report of the conference of dis
trict judges in which Congress was
urged to increase the number Of district
judges in the southern district of New
York by three and in the eastern dis
trict of New York by two. The report
said that the condition of the dockets
in Brooklyn and New York cannot be
bettered unless such action is taken
The conference likewise recommend
ed an additional district judge for
an additional circuit judge in
the second circuit and another in the
ninth circuit
The conference reported that there
were 1917 cases on the docketS at
the end of the fiscal year, a decrease
of 2,160 over year ago. Of this num-
Der civil cases in which the United
States is involved amounted to 1886,
an increase of 1859; criminal cases to

Table Shows Exports.

"The figures thus given cover the ex-
portationS of whisky only, and the
same records show that the total value
of all alcoholic beverages exported to
the United States from Canada during
the year ending June 80, 1928, amount
ed to 24,397, 958. AS observed heretoz
fore, these records show only the liquor
which was regularly cleared through
Canadian customs. Some OF 1t may be
Short-circuited for consumption In
Canada. On the other hand, it is be-
lieved substantial amount OF liquor
enters the United States across the
northern boundary of which the Cana
dian customs has no record. Based on
the figures supplied by the Canadian
Department of Trade and Commerce, it
will be noted that in the course OF
three years the volume of this traffic
has increased more than rs per cent.
In so far as the United States is con-
cerned, it is 100 per cent illegal"
The smuggling by way OF the high
seas from towering vessels" Mrs.
willebrandt said, continued to be a
source of trouble" but she explained
that certain factors had caused the
operators of these lowering vessels to
become more wary, and there are no
longer groups of liquor-laden vessels
anchored off the coast of the United
States on the high seas awaiting an
opportune time to unload"
The work of the Coast Guard was
praised in this particular by Mrs. WILLIE
brandt. She explained that among the
factors which also caused the vessels
to be more wary were extraterritorial
seizure conventions which have re-
ceived favorable construction by the
Supreme Court.

Despite the restrictions that still APP
ply to the development of some of the
major water powers of the country,
such as those on the st. Lawrence,

power development has continued at a
gratifying rate during the year, accord

"MIcHAEL STROGOFF"
 COMING TO PALACE

The gorgeous splendor of the semi-barbaric court of the Grand Kahn of Tartary shown in full color in the Universal-Film de France production of the famous Jules Verne melodrama Michael Strogoff," which comes to the Pal ace Theatre Thursday, presents a striking contrast to the civilized lnagnificence of the Imperial Pal ace Of Moscow of Alexander II, Czar of all Russia in 1850, which is also feature of the huge spec tacular photodrama. In those days Czar and Kahn were absolute rul- CTS. Their word was law for life or death. The Czar had fifty three titles. The Grand Kahn by comparison was a petty ruler But his power was equally abso- lute, and the trouble his Tartar hordes caused the army of the Czar was sufficient to make the journey Of Michael Stregoff into his hostile territory, one of the greatest adventures of fiction.
