KE. Howe, department of justice agent in Miamt, a bootiegger entered and demanded that Howe arrest a fellow bootlegger whom he accused of doublecrossing him. “He skinned me ont of 10 per cent commision last shipped a load of alcohol from Nassau to New Orleans,” said the indignant bootlegger. He also told Howe that the beot- | lexger who had doublecrossed him was about to ship another load of liquor, and he named the probable |time of shipment and the place of | destination | When the bootleggers left, the in- |vestigator asked Howe why he didn't arrest the man for implicating | himself as a rum-runner. $ “What's the use?" said the federal | agent, “he would repudiate what he | has just said, and then he'd say he| was trying to bribe me and that I} | got sore because he wouldn't pay as much as I wanted.” ‘There is another “arm of the law” in Miami helpless against rum-run- |ning-—the. custom office. charge of Deputy Collector David Tyre, who has two assistants. One is an office man and he and Tyre are lehained to their desks with office “work The second deputy, Thomas J | Whitten, who is 68, is left to ream |around the waterfront and do the |bewt he can at searching incoming | boats for contraband liquor. All boats smuggling liquor come in at night. Steamers with legal car goes also come in frequently at night. There is no quarantine sta tion outside the port of Miami and | ships come in the Bay of Biscay and moor at the docks, They unload as much of their cargo as they wish and then the captain phones Whitten and tells him to come down, The custom office has no water craft for boarding steamers. Col lector Tyre says he needs more men and a boat. “Scores of small craft, motor equipped, are leaving the docks daily bound out to sea,” says Tyre, “and we have no means of going aboard |them. They are shipping out to for. |eign ports without clearance papers. Such violation carries a penalty of | $1,000 fine a round trip. But we are helpless.” It is these boats, skipping to Nassau, without necessity of clear. jance papers, that are bringing liquor |in up and down the Atlantic coast. |'No check-up is ever made to deter- |mine what vessels are complying | with the law A year agé an ambitious depart- ment of justice agent, M. S, Bopst, former naval intelligence officer, started a campaign against vessels clearing from Miami without mani fest or papers. Bopst arrested about 30. They drew fines averaging about $10—in- jstead of the $1,000 prescribed by |statute, Bopst resigned from the | service. Owners of small craft are making fortunes in booze smuggling. It is significant that out of 278 American | vessels “sold” to aliens in one year, }108 were transferred to British reg- jistry, | Small craft that can make high Speed and run in shallow water are | necessary for rum-running. Not all leraft transferred to British registry are smuggling liquor—but — prac- tically all transfers of small craft un- der 500 tons went to British registry, the few exceptions being to Mexican and Cuban registry!
