1y NORWAY MAKES TEN MILE LIQUOR LIMIT Marine Rum Runners Must Not| Be Caught Inside of That Line Christiania, Nov, 8,-~Liquor smug- §!ing into Norway, in violation of the prohibition laws, has increased re cently at such a rapid rate that gov ernment officials are finding the work of suppression most difficult Smuggling on a large scale is going on all along the coast, the thousands of islands and fjords furnishing ideal bhiding places and operating bases for the illegal traffic. The efforts of the smugglers seem to be concentrated about the inlet of the Christiania- fiord, and here is established a rea) market place at the outskirts of the three-mile limit, swarming with Ger- man and Danish liquor smuggling Yensels, New Law Made A Norweglan law now allows rev- enue officials to search and bring in suspiclious vessels as far out as ten miles from the coast. This extension of the control district, however, has served only to increase the difficult work ot the officials. So far other nations have not offi- clally accepted the extension of Nor- way's water control to the 10-mlile 1imit, and opponents of the law point out that' international complications could easily arise should a foreign boat be seized and forcibly brought into a Norweglan port. Hundreds of thousands of gallons of alcohol and whiskey find their way into the country, and only a Vvery small percentage is being seized, The smugglers have a thoroughly organiz- ed business, but use high powered motor boats to bring the goods from the storage ships anchored outside Norwegian waters. Submarine chas- ers obtained from the German navy, are {deal for the work of the smug- glers. These boats are equipped with radio and smoke screen apparatus. They are in constant wireless com- munication with the shore, and are thus able to choose the right moment for a dash to the beach. M People Help The most serious handicap the gov- ernment has to contend with is the coast population itself, which co- operates in more than one way with the rum runners. A patrol steamer equipped with two guns has been put into operation by the revenue officers, but the speedy boats of the smugglers are out of reach before damage can be done to them. At the recent annual meeting of the organization of revenue officials a resolution was passed saying it was {mpossible to stop rum running in Norway, even if the officials were on duty day and night and the govern- ment appropriated 20 times as much money for the work as is now avail- able. NORWAY STRUGGLES FOR PRONBITION Coutry Ts Contontd With Unique Problem Christiania, Nov. 3.—Norway I8 eonfronted with an unique problem in attempting to enforce the prohibi- tion laws of the country, in spite of the commercial treaties which are in force with.France and Spain. Under these treatles Norway agrees to im- port huge quantities of strong wines which are banned under the prohibi- tion laws. . From. France the government has agreed to import 400,000 quarts of brandy, to be used for medical and technjcal purposes, and from Spain $00,000 quarts of wine which contain _more than 14 per cent of alcohol. In- eluded in this amount is 50,000 quarts of cordials which are of no use med- {cally. For medical purposes, according to census figures, there is nse for only 100,000 quarts of these {mported goods, ‘and no provision Has been made for the disposal of the re- mainder. The treaties provide that these wines may not be reexported, and the alcoholic content may not be lowered by mixing with water. At present there is a misunder- standing between Norway and Portu- gal over Norway's exports of fish to Portugal, and as a result Portuguese merchants have cancelled shipments entailing the loss of millions of crowns to Norweglans. - Negotiations for a new treaty have been going on ! for some time, but have made little headway, as Portugal is insisting that Norway import a milllon quarts of strong wines, port and Madeira, year- 1y in return for the fish trade of Nor- way. According to the Norwegian pro- hibition law, strong wines may be mold only in drug stores on a doctor's prescription. In this way not more than 150,000 quarts can be disposed | of in a year. | Prohibition politicians are Vamrmg‘ — e Fox’s Sun., Mon,, Tues., Wed.
