CANADIAN LIQUOR
 SHIPPED ID ISLES
French Possessions Made Base
 For Smuggling Fleet

Toronto, Ont, Oct. s P>-The Toronto Globe today published the following dispatch from Ottawa:
 "Thwarted on the Detroit river and the Great Lakes by the liquor export act, Canadian liquor export CTS are making increasing use of St. Pierre -Miquelon base for illicit ship ments of whiskey into the United States.
 The traffic between Ontario and Quebec distillers and the French is- lands off Newfoundland has reach ed such proportions that shipments of intoxicating beverages from Can- ada to St. Pierre Miquelon in the month of August alone exceeded $1,- 100000, or half as much as the ex- ports for the whole calendar year of 1929. Exports during June, July and August, the first three months since the um-running across the Detroit river and the Great Lakes was stopped, aggregated s2.442,000, or more than the total exports for the calendar year 1929 when exports of whiskey from Canada to St. Pierre Miquelon totalled s2,101,SS5.
 Advised About Order
 "Collectors of national revenue throughout Canada have been advis- ed by Robert W. Breadner, commits sioner of customs, of the passing of an order-in- council amending the customs regulations with respect to coastwise vessels carrying as cargo wines and spirituous and fermented malt liquors.
 "The minister of national revenue, Hon. Edmond B. Ryckman, submit ted to the cabinet the order, which nas been approved by the governor in-council, to place coastwise ship ping on the same footing as vessels clearing for foreign port when car rying intoxicating liquor. The new order will curb the business of rum runners on the Great Lakes, who had already been pretty effectively stopped by the liquor export act sub mitted to parliament at the last regular session by MT. Mackenzie King.

 "So my men often have to work for months on radio messages we in- tercept. Like Poe. believe there is no code that cannot be broken down. Sometimes it takes long time to do it, and often one word comes fash ing through that provides us with the key to a cipher with which we have been struggling until everybody in the office has a headache.
 We know the syndicate maintains land radio stations to direct their ships. Here is a typical example of how we can spot ship. We in- tercepted a message recently. and fortunately were able to decode it immediately. It was from rum ship and said there was no chance of unloading immediately because a Coast Guard cutter was standing not far off. We checked the Coast Guard and learned the location of all the vessels at sea. From that it was easy to spot the ship"

SECRET SERVICE
 OFTEN PUZZLED
Whole Months Frequently Re
 Quired to DeCode Messages

New York, Oct. 8 (UP)-The fed eral government has mustered a staff of 30 technicians, code experts and astute investigators in an attempt to curb a mighty liquor syndicate ply | ing ships between St. Pierre Mique- 1 lon, New York and the Bahamas and doing an estimated S1,000,000 a month business.
 The justice department, charged with prohibition enforcement, has placed its faith in a short sandy haired Nirginian, H. J. Simmons, chief of special agents for the New York district. In a soft, drawling voice he expresses his belief that romance still fingers in the detective business and that Sherlock Holmes and Philo Vance used methods than can be applied to everyday life. Naturally cant tell you all our secrets" he told the United Press, but I can explain some of the prob lens we come up against. It Is our belief that a gigantic combination of rum runners is working between St. Pierre Miquelon and the Bahamas. It is ferry system. The boats come out of the north, loaded with wines and champagne. Exactly on sched- ule, they arrive outside New York and discharge their cargo. Then they proceed to the Bahamas for a SUD- ply of hard liquor, dropping it off here on the return trip.
 "As near as we can figure, the flow of liquor into New York is worth s1,0O0,000 a month. I can give you some idea of how carefully the rum syndicate is organized when I tell you that there is a board of directors at the head of 1t. We believe the board consists of six or eight men, all of whom spend most of their time outside of the United States.
 Funds Unlimited
 ''Now, in my work we are up against the problem of fighting & gang that has almost unlimited cap- ital"
 Simmons waved toward a radio set seized in one of his raids.
 That's worth s15,000. can't spend that much money on a radio So I'm betting the brains of my men against money-the human element against mechanical perfection. I have one man who can speak five languages. Another one is an ex- pert at translating Greek and still another can speak Chinese. But the rum runners also are getting plenty of talent.'
 He mentioned Cecil Molyneaux, described by federal agents as "a radio genius,' who was arrested re- gently in Brooklyn and charged with being the land operative of a group Of rum runners. Molyneaux, who was involved in the I'm Alone case because of his radio activities, is out on bail.
 Simmons inhaled deeply from his

 BUYERS BOYCOTT
Campbell Says Mutual Conf-
 denCe Must Be Restored

Washington, Oct. s UP)-Pros- perity can be reestablished through a. debunking campaign and mutual confidence between buyer and seller, according to Harvey Campbell, vice president and secretary of the De- troit board of commerce, who was here yesterday with a plan for re- yival of business without federal aid.
 Campbell believes that American business men should take the mat ter into their own hands, institute a period of discussion of the situation and "break the buyers strike"
 A statistical committee made up of representative business leaders was urged and Walter s. Clifford, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, was recom- mended as its head.
 Campbell estimated that only 25 per cent of the population had been affected by the current depression, but said the other 75 per cent had lost confidence and were keeping back money which should be in cir culation.

GALL|CCH|O NAMED
 IN BOOTLEG CASE
Alcorn Charges He Was Given as Reference

Hartford, Oct. 8 - Frank Gra- nato, one of the quintet sentenced in superior court yesterday for their connection with the operation in Mapping of a 1,500 gallon still which county officials raided last week, gave the name of Detective Sergeant Nicholas R. Gallicchio of the Hart ford police force as reference when attempting to bribe Deputy Sheriff C. Vincent Benjamin of South Wind sor it is charged by Hugh M. AL corn, states attorney.
 According to Benjamin, Granato interviewed him September 25 and offered him S150 for protection. Benjamin baked at the idea and in an attempt to convince him that he would be safe, Granato told him to call up Gallicchio, with whom he said he had done business, according to the states attorney. After Gra- nato departed Benjamin got in touch with the county detectives office and three days later the raid took place.
 Gallicchio yesterday denied he had ever had dealings with Granato. He said he knew Granato and that he had been arrested twice as boot logger but denied he had ever had criminal dealings with him.
 Granato pleaded guilty to the bribery charge and also to charges of conspiring to break the state pro- hibition enforcement act and to manufacturing liquor with intent to sell. He was sentenced to one to three years in states prison on the bribery count and to one year in prison on each of the other counts.
 Other members of the gang were also sentenced and Michael Muster. who supplied electric current for the still by wire connected with his house, was fined $200 and given a suspended sentence of six months in jail.

FARCE COMEDY IS
 AT PALACE TONIGHT

Blazonlng the popular Universal star, Glenn Tryon, with Sue Carol at the head of its celebrities, Tt Can Be Done," side-splittine comedy farce, will open at the Pal ace Theatre tonight
 AS may be surmised from the title, "It Can Be Done" deals with the adventures of young man who is afflicted with demoraliz- ing inferiority complex. The strug- gles of this chap with his handi- cap are logically and faithfully DOT trayed, and the picture not only of fers a solution of these difficulties but it sugar-coats that solution behind such a mirth- provoking se- ries of riotously funny incidents that the lesson strikes home with a pleasant and amazing force.
 The gay and charming Sue Carol appears at the head of an excellent supporting cast that includes Tom O'Brien, Richard Carle, Richard Carlyle and Jack Egan.

and feel better able to do it than when I was younger A varied life fitted the lighting preacher" for his task. Father Was Lawyer
 McConnells father, member of the Tennessee bar, wanted his boy to follow in his footsteps. The youth, after finishing his high school education, went to Maryville College, Tennessee University, and to Abilene, Texas, schools, where he was graduated.
 After an interval as a cowboy on the Texas plains, he married Miss Mamie White at Atlanta, then re- turned to Georgia and became a de- tective.
 The elder McConnells wishes finally prevailed, and the young man became assistant to the so- licitor of the Atlanta crimipal court remaining there in 1894 to 1895.
 What I saw in that work caused me to take up evangelistic work, ;" the pastor said.
 For years he spoke from church pulpits and lyceum platforms, viz orously attacking conditions he felt were harmful to modern civiliza- tion He wrote more than 20 books dealing with theology, psych- ology, sociology, economies and philosophy.
 From 1914 to 1924 Mcconnell was pastor of Baptist church in At lanta, and has been pastor of many other churches since then.

Myrna Loy who plays the femi- nine lead in the all-talking pie ture, 'The Black Watch" Fox Films, starring Victor McLaglen, is claimed to be one of the most color full and exotic personalities on the present-day screen.
 Her role of "Yasmani," in this pretentious production is easily the most important she has been cast for in her brief but splendid career.
 "Yasmani," as created by Talbot Mundy, author of the novel from which the picture is adapted, is a voluptuous figure, exotic, mysteri- ous, a she-devil with whom many men matched wits only to come out second best.
 The stellar role, played by Me Laglen, is that of Captain Donald Gordon King" of the f a m u $ Black Watch" the nickname fol the And Highlanders.

PEOPLE URGED TO
STUDY REFERENDA
Official Copies of Measures Now
Being Sent To Registered
State Voters

Within the next few weeks every
voter in Montana will receive an
official copy of Referendum Meas
ures 33 and "a which will be voted
upon at the General Election in
November. The publications are
being mailed by County Clerks and
according to the law must be in
the mails by September II.
The citizens committee in charge
of the campaign of information re-
garding these measures urges all
voters to read them carefully and
to keep the official copy for refer
ence. The committee points out
that the questions involved in the
Referendum measures are the most
serious that voters have been ask
ed to decide in many years.
According to the committee, the
official publication merely gives
the text of the measures. 1t does
not tell of the conditions which
make them necessary.
When reading the text of Refer
endum "a the people should know
that the special levy voted in 1920
for the support of the four origi-
nal teaching units of the Univer-
sity of Montana expires this year.
Referendum 81 is to renew the sup
port and provides also for the two
new units of the University recent
ly established by the Legislature as
we'll as the Extension Service, the
Experiment Stations and other SER
vice organizations and activities.
The passage of Referendum "a
will assure that the support of the
educational institutions will be cor
tinued.
Referendum 33 is for a $3,000,-
900 bond issue, according to the
committee of information, and will
make it possible for the Legislature
to authorize the issuance of bonds
to meet the building and equipment
needs of the IA state institutions.
Over-crowding and hazardous con-
ditions exist at many of the insti-
buttons, particularly at the State
Hospital, State Prison, Orphans
Home, Industrial School for Boys
and 9 tuberculosis Sanatarium, ac-
cording to the committee.
