Washington. Feb. Is - Woe io the

rolh v,. the ihrist ot the United Slabs
l>\ runnings the blockade with cargoes
of whiskey and rum. They are
likely to encounter a newly organ iz (1
"tnos<|uito fleet" flying the flag
>f the United Stales Coniinissioner 1
51 Prohibit ion. And then, with their 1
-locks and crow, they ar0 IikeI\ lo go
to jail.
Willi in l lie last few days reports 1
liave come to the office of Prohibition
Commissioner Kramer that quantities 1
af intoxicants are entering the United
states from Canada, Cuba and Mexi- 1
*o, carried by small craft to isolated
landing places along the coasts of the
[5nlf of Mexico, Maine, California and
Ciegon. The wet goods, according to 1
:he information received, are being
carried in motor boats and other
miall craft and then, landed successfully,
to be sold to bootleggers and
Jthers.
To stop this a patrol fleet is being 1
organized for service under th^, direcion
of the prohibition authorities.
Officials are more apprehensive;1
jver such shipments from Cuba,
Large quantities of whiskey went jj1
Cuba just before constitutional * o-1
liibition became effective and the suspicion
is that it will be smuggled back
nto the United States.
There arr hundreds of places along :
the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and
Florida where landings might bej1
made without knowledge of prohibition
officers. About the only way to
ipprehend the blockade running craft
it is figured is to have ti patrol fleet
m duty continuously to overhaul all
ivho look suspicious.
On recommendation of the Appro- :
filiations Committee the Senate today
ivrote into the second deficiency appropriation
bill an additional $1,000,f)00
for (hp enforcement of the law 1
iirohibiting the importation of li- 1
luor. Part of this fund will be used,
it is believed, in equipping and main- 1
aining the prohibition fleet.
The rush of American tourists for
Cuba and the Bahamas is reflected in
in unprecedented flood of applications
for passports pouring in on theC
passport bureau of the State Department.
From 150 to 200 applic.itions
itre being received daily, breaking all 1
records.

Sou lit Carolina Automotive Trade Association,
representing over two hunilred
automobile dealers in South Car
olina. The bill is due lo get third reading
in iho Senate Monday night and
then goes to I lie House. The Association
expresses the hope that the
House will expedite the passage of
the bill in order that it may get
through before adjournment sine die
is reached.
The measure referred to is Senate
hill No. 77, introduced by Senators
Pearce, .of Richland, and Johnson of
Allendale, and seeeks t0 amend a law
which the automobile dealers of the
State say works a very grave injustice
on them and places 011 their
business a handicap that is placed 011
no other business in the State and
which is not placed 011 the automotive
business in any other State.
"Under the law t0 regulate the running
of motor vehicles in this State."
says the statement issued by the
South Carolina Automotive Trade Association
today, "a purchase money
mortgage taken by a dealer selling a
car is of very doubtful value, so
doubtful that a bank will not handle
it. This is Decause ino law permits
the car to be seized if it strikes a
person or a buggy or wagon or any
property. Even if the car is being
operated by some one who stole it
and strikes another ear it can be attached.
"The bill introduced in the Senate
by Messrs. Pearce and Johnson
amends the hiw so that it shall read
as follows: "He it enacted by the General
Assembly of the State of South
Carolina, when a motor vehicle is op
crated in violation of the provisions
of law, or negligently and carelessly,
and when any person receives personal
injury thereby, or when a buggy
or wagon or other property is damaged
thereby, the damage done to
such person or property shall be and
constitute a Hen next in priority to
the lien for State and county taxes
upon such a motor vehicle, recoverable
in any court of competent jurisdiction
and the person sustaining
such damages shall have a right to
attach said motor vehicle in the manner
provided by law for attachments
ir. this State: Provided, that this act
shall not be effective in case the
motor vehicle shall liave been stolen
by the breaking of a building under
a secure lock, or when 'he vehicle is
securely locked, or without the
knowledge or consent of the owner
of said motor vehicle, and provided
that a bona fide purchase money
mortgage ?o such motor vehicle shall
be prior in lien to that provided for
in this act, if the same be duly and
properly recorded within the time allowed
by law for recording such instruments,

BY HYPNOTISM,
Paris, Feb, 18?Hypnotism applied
to doncing is the latest Parisian
fad. It was launched hist night at a
fashionable hull by Mrs. Cam Campbell
and Senorita Umbra Luigini two
of the most beautiful leaders of fashionable
society this season.

complications of the fox trot will no

that is needed, they say, is a few

they arrived, but went away fully
conversant with all ih<. "new-taimled"

Merlin, Thursday, Feb. if' I'rcliminary

for. in in isi ?>r of jn si ic?*. ami thi> Attorney
(ieneial hn\(> convinced the
minister that the trial l?y tin* su- '
preni,. court oi' l.ofpsig ol' Centralis
accused by the Allies of war crimes j
will necessitate considerable atupli-!
fication ? that tribunal iiotli with
respect to its organic construction h
and working forces. V
Iii view of the fact that Germany's ?
highest court is a ponderous and slow i
moving affair which lias always been a
considerably behind tht> time, the ti
forthcoming trials probably will do- w
niond a distinctive action which would h
not conflict with the court's regular ,u
cases. The National Assembly may r<
be asked to approve supplementary ti
measures calculated to enable the u
supreme court t0 adapt itself to the J
unusual task.
The question of procuring tangible F
evidences against those accused and!
how witnesses abroad would be sub- ti
i poenaed is an important problem. As p
witnesses cannot be coerced to appear z
| it is held here the only method of|i<
reaching them would be through dip-1c
lomatic channels. It]
| It has bee nsuggested that where a 'a
defendant's interests demanded it, h^jd
be permitted to visit the country p
where his alleged offense was com- t!
mitted and be guaranteed safe con-1
duct for the journey.
The feeling of satisfaction which v
set in when the last entente note on l;
th0 extradition question was received tl
has now Riven way in government !r
circles to the realization that Ger-lu
