RUM RUNNERS ON THE RUN; VESSELS BEING CLOSELY WATCHED
The item reports a declaration that there is a real scarcity of liquor in rum row for the holiday trade in prospect, and that the rum runners are on the run, credited to the coast guard and to the agreement with Great Britain. It adds that reports from Halifax indicate the rum fleet has quit that base since the agreement, which provides a more direct exchange of information between the governments, and that four liquor ships are reported under close watch in the North Atlantic zone.
DASHINGTON, Nov. 1. (AP) - Czar Andrews declared there is a real scarcity in rum row of liquor for the holiday trade in prospect and remarked the rum runners are actually on the run, thanks to the coast guard and on account of the agreement with Great Britain. Reports from Halifax indicate the rum fleet have quit that base since the agreement which provides a more direct exchange of information between the government's coast guard. It is reported four liquor ships are under close watch in the North Atlantic zone.
