Liquors Pour Through One Seaport
Officially; IT'S Only for Diplomats

BALTIMORE, Md, April H.
Through Baltimore the finest Ii
quors in the world flow in broad
daylight and with every official
sanction. Ships from the other side
of the Atlantic. where there is no
prohibition, arrive laden with YER
mouth, brandy, creme de menthe-
all the traditional fine alcoholic
drinks.
Stevedores unload case after case
of whisky ard wine and pile them
on the piers along Baltimore har-
Dor.
And after a while a japanese or
an Albanian or a Czechoslovakian
comes down to the pier, presents
papers issued by the United States
go; eminent, and rides away with
mis- truckload to stock his cellar in
| washington 40 miles away all in the
manner prescribed by the U. S. state
department.
Such, under the recent rulings
following the seizure in Washington
of a truckload of liquor destined for
the Siamese Legations, is the advan-
tage of being a diplomat-he re-
ceives immunity from moleStation
under American law.
All Pours Through Baltimore
All diplomatic liquors must come
through Baltimore.
In the last shipment, arriving on
the British steamship Maryland,
we're consignments for ENJOYS OF
eight foreign nations: So cases for
the Germans, 10 cases for the Brit
ish, six bales of wine for the Al
bantam legation. 10 bales OF whisky
for the Porto Ricans, IL bales for
the Nicaraguans, five for the Bo-
dyians. 10 for the Brazilian am
bassador, and 80 packages for the
Japanese.
r. w. Williams of the English le-
cation, arrived at yIe pier first to
call for his. He presented papers
obtained through the red tape OF
the state and treasng departments
and the customs bureau and drove
off with his 10 cases.
John Meyer arrived a little later
and claimed his. SO cases for the
German ambassador.
How It's Accomplished
Although the prohibition laws do
not provide for permitting foreign
ENJOYS to import liquors, the i'm
munity granted them a san inter-
national courtesy allows them to do
it. The requirements under the
new rulings are the necessary iden-
LITIGATION and other papers, and
that an attach of the legation 20
which liquors bound accompany
the truck which carries his liquor
from Baltimore to the national cap
ital.
No dry agent or policeman can
interfere with the passage of this

Bringing
Radical Change To
Nicaraguan People

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, April Is.
-(Pl-Air transport, assured by re-
cent congressional ratification Of a
contract between this republic and
Pan-American Anyways, Inc, is like
ly to make a more radical change in
Nicaragua than in any other coun-
try in the world.
Time between the United States
and Nicaragua will be cut from
weeks to days and between the east
and west coasts Of the country from
days to hours.
Hitherto mail and passengers
from the United States have had
to travel from New York to PAN
anna and there await a steamer for
Corinto, the Pacific coast port of
Nicaragua. The time varied from
a fortnight to three weeks.
The planes will bring Managua
within two days of Miami and with
in three days of New York.
The company has agreed too to
inaugurate a service between the
capital and the Caribbean ports Of
Bluefields and Puerto Cabezas. They
will make the air Jump in three
hours or less over a country hither-
to t~raversable only by mule and
canoe in from 10 days 70 two weeks.
Besides, in the six months rainy
season the trails becUme well nigh
impossible and the rivers too swol-
len for SAT travel by canoe. In those
circumstances ordinary communica-
ton has been by means of steam
ers down the west coast to Panama
and up the east coast again to Blue
fields or Puerto Cabezas.
1t is hoped here also That Mica
will be made an overnight
stop on the trans-continental air
route between Florida and the west
coast of South America. That would
mean the erection here of extensive
hangers and machine shops as well
as complete passenger and mail ter
minalS.

ICELAND OUTSKIRTS
WORLD IN EXPORTS

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, April 49,
N0-Iceland'S total export trade in
creased amazingly in 1923, being
valued at Z $4,000, 900 kroner (about
SIS, $780, 00) as compared with the
1927 figures of $1,000, 900 kroner.
These figures become all the more
remarkable when it is understood
that Icland's p%opuatlion does not
exceed 100, In fact the foreign
trade of 1892 per capita is the great
est in the world.
This northern country takes great
pride in its exportS-both CONNER
cial and cultural. While Icelanders
point out complacently that they ex-
port more economic goods for each
inhabitant than any other country,
they also are proud of their un-
usually high production of poets
and artists.
Some of the greatest writer's of
today hail from Iceland. No other
nation has a higher or more gen.
eral taste in literature and art.
But the export figures show that
the Icelanders also know how to
weave their dreams into a wonder
full fabric Of production and sale.
Their commercial leaders say laugh
ingly that queer fish, such a spoets
and artists, are not the chief export
of the country, but dried cod and
sailed herringS."

Jugo-Slavs Seek
To Eliminate All
Disputes And Rows

BELGRADE. April 13.-(P-A
diplomatic drive by the new Jugo-
Slavian government against the
misunderstanding and disputes
which have made the country ap-
pear as if surrounded with enemies,
is under full Roadway. Already
agreements have been reached with
Bulgaria and Greece on outstanding
problems and negotiations have
been started with Rumania.
Relations with Albania have i'm
proved, one factor being the action
OF Serbian clergy in supporting a
movement to establish an indepen-
dent Orthodox church in that
country. There seems too to be a
good chance for settling a dispute
with Hungary over state domains,
since Hungary Withdrew the ques-
ton from the agenda of the coun-
Gil of the League of Nations.
The recent agreements with
Greece gave Jugo-Slavia the addi-
tional privileges which it wanted
in the use Of the port of salonika
and the railroad leading to the sea.
This vas followed by a general pact
Of friendship.
The Bulgarian understanding re-
suited in opening the frontier CT
that country and a lot of friendly
intercourse and trade is expected to
result. Bulgarians and the south
Slavs have been traditional Balkan
enemies since the days Of the old
Serbian kingdom and the rap
prochement has been hailed as a
big step in clearing the atmosphere
Of southeastern Europe.
The negotiations with Rumania
are proceeding in Belgrade through
the Rumanian minister, N. Filodor.
They include such questions as the
navigation Of the Danube, drainage
of frontier lands, administration of
frontier areas, settlement of old
debts, taxation in the former Aus
tro-Hungarian districts that were
divided between Jugo-Slavia and
Rumania by the treaty of Trianon,
and rights Of workers to exercise
their craft on either side Of the
boundary. In addition beginnings
have been made for a new COM
mercial treaty which is needed be-
cause Rumania is about to put new
tariffs into effect.
