SIGNS TREATY WITH CANADA ON RUM Smuggling of Liquor and Narcotics Aimed at in Pact Adopted Here. MADE EFFECTIVE IN 10 DAYS Shipments to Yukon Cared for in New Agreement. A treaty designed to suppress Smug- gling of liguor and narcotics across the Canadian boundary was signed here today by representatives of the American and Canadian governments. The agreement, which has been un- der negotlation for several months, was signed for the Urited States by Secretary Hughes and for Canada by Crnest La Pointe, the Canadian min- 1ster of justice. The groundwork for the treaty was worked out at the Ottawa conference, participated in by representatives of the Treasury and State departments and by officials of the Canadian de partments concerned with enforce- ment of the liquor and narcotic laws. Officials here expect it to result in a marked improvement in conditions along the border, where many cases of smuggling have been reported. Effective in Ten Days. The convention is to take effect ten days after the exchange of ratifica- tions, and to remain In force for one | year, with termination thereatter on thirty days' notice. Each government under the new pact is to furnish infornation upon request to officials of the other re- garding clearances of vessels or the transportation of cargoes, shipments or loads of articles across the inter- national boundary when the importa- tion of the articles transported by land is subject to the payment of duties. Information also is to be ex- changed regarding clearances of vessels to any ports when there is ground to suspect that the owners of the cargo plan to smuggle it into the territory of the other government. May Refise Clenrances. Clearances are to be denied to vessels carrying cargo consisting of commodities the Importation ~ of which is forbidden by either country whenever it is evident from the ton- nage or other characteristics of the vessel that the ship would be unable to carry the cargo to the destination proposed in the application for clear- ance. The treaty also takes care of the controversial point as to shipment of liquor across Alaskan territory from the western Canadian provinces to the Yukon region. It provides that { the new Willard Hotel. no penalty or forfeiturs under the 1aws of the United States shall be applicable to alcoholic liquors or ves- sels, vehicles or persons by reason of the carriage in transit under Cana- dian guard through the territorial waters of the United States to Skag- way, Alaska, and.thence by the short- est route to Canadian territery. Liquors so transported must be kept under seal .continuously while in the American territorial waters. Other sections of. the treaty provide for return under reasonabie condi- tions of stglen property taken across the international border; exchange of information as to the names and activities of persons known to be engaged In violation of narcotic laws; attendance of government of- ficials of one country as witnesses in the other; and for mutual extradition rights in the case of violators of the narcotic laws of the two countries, ——— Realtors Guests at Dance.
