The far-flung activities of the United States Coast Guard in protecting the coasts of the Nation from smugglers, in aiding ships and grsons in distress | and patrolling ice-bound waters on | ‘watch for menacing icebergs in steam- | ship lanes were described today in the annual report of the service. | During the fiscal year of 1928 the report said that the Coast Guard res- cued 3,983 persons from peril, aided ships valued at $39,479,729, on which there were 17,383 persons, and seized or reported for law violations 1,554 ves- sels.

Rum Row Wiped Out. ‘The work of the Coast Guard in pre- | venting the smuggling of liquor into this country, the report declared, has been satisfactory, but with the resources ‘ in vessels and men now in ecmmand it | said it is impossible to do more, Rum Tow, it stated, has been entirely wiped out’ and liquor smuggling on the sea coasts has been “iremendously cur- tailed.” Declaring that there still remains a great deal of liquor smuggling on the Great Lakes, the report it s | believed that in this matter the Coast Guard has accomplished all that is pos- sible to accomplish with its prosent re- sources.” It continued, however: “It | is firmly believed that the Coast Guard can go the rest of the way toward a practically complete prevention of smuggling on our coasts if it be given the resources with which to do it.” The standards of morale and dis- eipline among the enlisted men in the service were reported to have been “very high,” but there were 410 sum- mary Coast Guard court cases during the year with 633 Coast Guard court cases reviewed. Of the summary cases, 21 were sentenced to be dishonorably discharged and forfeit pay; 12 were dishonorably discharged; 75 were dis- charged for bad conduct, while two cases were withdrawn, 24 acquitted and 15 disapproved.
