Ford Sees Usefulness of U. S. Craft in South American Trade. By the Associated Press. !l DETROIT, Mich., May 27—William B. Mayo, chief engineer of the Ford Motor Co.. expects to visit the Bast next week to inspect 7 of the 14 refrigerator ships which the United States Shipping Board has tied up idle_at Hog Island and Jones Point, N. Y., and Caldwell, N. J. If an ex- amination shows the vessels are sea- worthy, refittable at a nominal cost an be purchased at a reasonable it is understood Henry Ford to buy them. A copyrighted story in the Detroit Iree Press says this” morning that Ford expects to use the vessels to carry motor cars Ford company branches along the South Atlantic and in South America, and bring back cargoes ofsfruit s quoted in the story if the company can “break even™ such a plan it will be tried out .

The article the Ford chiei engineer as saying that if the 400 steel vessels, which it was reported some time ago might be purchased by the Ford Co.. were bought they would be funked. They would not be “worth the” money it co to keep them afloat,” Mayo is quoted as saying quotes 1925. WET GROUP SCORES DRY EXPENDITURES Millions Declared Used to Bar Less Than 1 Per Cent of Liquor Supply. The Association Against Pro hibition Amendment in a last night accredited to W. H. Stay- ton. national chairman, declared tha “millions of dollars of the taxpayer: money is being used by the Govern- ment to stop less than 1 per cent of the flow of liquor in the United States “Figures compiled by Dr. Rufus § Tucker. special agent of the Depart ment of Commenr: at the direction of the department said the state- ment, “show that imported liquors to the value of $40,000.000 were smug- gled into this country in 1924. He estimates that this value will be re- duced by $10,000,000 this year. “Prohibition officials, estimate on the repor Linder, chemist of the Prohibition Unit, declare that the amount of illicit imported liquor in the country is less than 1 per cent of the ta illicit booz upply During the fis 0,000 sample of liquor dry agents were analyze . and it was discovered tha samples iess than one out hundred were imported stuff. Kkinganto consideration the large the basing their of William V of ever statement | expended by the United States Coast Guard to stop this small percentage of the Nation’s liquor supply, it would appear that the Government is mak ing little progress toward prohibition enforcement in thus ruthlessly throw- ing away the taxpayers’ money “The recent much advertised rum blockade, resulting in the concentra- tion of nearly 400 ships in a_given area, convinces one that the dry of- ficials are paying much more attention to the 1 per cent liquor source than the internal source which supplies 99 ‘per cent of the nation's thirsty. t also would seem to prove that the cost of effective enforcement of the prohibition law throughout the coun try would undoubtdely bankrupt the United States Treasury. Expenditures Are Cited. ongress was asked by the Coast for an appropriation of $20,- for the fiscal year 1926. The tion for the fiscal year 1925 was $7,659,924. In 1925 Congress ap propriated §1 900 for new boats and the reconditioning of old ones in the Coast Guard fleet. In addition to that ships were turned over to the “oast Guard by the Navy valued at $18,000,000 t being able to enforce the prohibition phase of the Coast Guard's assignment (namely, to stop less than 1 per cent imported liquor from reaching the United States) on such a small appropriation, a de- filciency estimate was submitted to Congress in the amount Jf $8,200,000 ““The public may easily see how its money is poured out by its Govern- ment in a futile attempt to enforce a law that experience has taught us cannot be effectively enforced.” Assigned to Chanute Field.
