 Douglas Case Recent Example of
 New Service.
 Washington, Oct. 2 LP}-The treas ury today issued orders that con- gressmen and other high government officials are entitled to free entry when they return from abroad on government business. and 10 courtesy of the port when they return from pleasure trips. The instructions Supcrsede previous orders.
 Distinguished Guests Aided
 "Distinguishcd foreign visitors and high government officials are also given expedite orders in cases where, under the rules. they are not en- titled 10 free entry.' the order read. Distinguished foreign visitors are generally given this courtesy upon request through the state depa"t- mcnt.
 High government officials, in Cluding congressman, are given these orders direct by the treasury department. ConGressmen and other high government officials are en- titled to free entry, which means that they do not have to pay duty when they have been abroad on government business. When they are returning from abroad on priv ate busineSs or pleasure trips, they are given the courtesy of an expedite order, which does not carry with it free entry"
 Cites Douglas Case
 Assistant Secretary bowman, who issued the order, today explained that representative Louis Douglas of Arizona, who was transferred at quarantine to a cutter yesterday and sent ashore. was extended this court esy because he had been to Europe to visit his father who was ill and was anxious to hurry back to Wash . iugton to assume his duties.
 Lowman said the orders which now permit congressman to receive the courtesy of the port and have their baggage expedited when they are returning from pleasure trips were issued because they are high government officials and entitled to such courtesy.
 The order today rcvcrscs that of fast June 1 in that it includes high government officials and congress- men returning from pleasure trips as entitled to having their baggage expedited. Previous regulations pro- vided that expedite orders could be issued only in case of passengers
