Mr. Doran said that such distil- leries are put up at a cost of from $20,000 to $75,000, and the en- forcement program was to “detect and break up these places before they have had time to make a fi- nancial return to the operators’ Coast Guard Activities The narrative of coast guard ac- vities was given by Rear Admiral rederick C. Billard, commandant, who said that extensive scouting operations over wide areas now are necessitated by the ahsence of rum row off the New York coast. “The situation is this" he con- tinued. “We will scout over the north Atlantic ocean, and find a vessel, we will say, that we know is laden with liquor more than 200 miles off shore. One of our patrois will stick by her in the fog during the night. Then the rum ship may suddenly put out her lights, turn in a directly opposite direction, and maybe we will loge her.” Michigan Separate District Mr. Doran explained the isolation of Michigan as a district of itself, saying that a “peculiarly difficult problem centering in Detroit,” war- ranted such a step. “We were com- pelled to take special measures to combat the shipping out of Detroit, in a fan-like condition of forma- “of this quantity of liquor that was being imported from Canada: and in addition we moonshining and condition in Detroit that we sale felt. required special handli Objects to Coast Service The prohibition commissioner ex- pressed disappointment that more than 65 per cent of the agents had been disqualified by civil service examinations, taking the stand that such “mental” tests provided no measure of a man's fitness for en- forcement work.
