The body of a woman believed to be Mrs.k Vivian Hatton Whitman,' 20 years old,- was found in the waters of Carquinez Straits (out of San Francisco Bay) by Uietro Busalacchi, a fisheman. v Strapped to the woman's body was a valise containing wearing apparel, two books and a knife with her name incribed on the handle.- The . fact that there were no marks of violence and the mannner In which 'the valise was weighted to the body led to a verdict of "death by drowning, pro bably : caused by suicide." by coro ner's Jury. v .r Arthur ' H.'

OTTAWA, July 24. As long as profits from bootlegging are what they are, and the ' only deterrent is a fine of $200 or so there will be big money in the bootlegging game and it will be very difficult for the author ities on either side of the internation al line to stamp out the traffic. . That is the summary of opinions ex pressed by' Ottawa officials as to the situation regarding smuggling of li quor from Canada ' to the United States. " Further, high officials of the Royal Canadian. Mounted Police say that, while- they are doing all In, their power Idheck infractions of the fed- BOOTLEGGING HARD TO ERADICATE eral laws In this respect it is rekUy.-- usHcrosled tor tae American authorities to ; see that liquor does not reach the thirsty 30ula beyond the ' imaginary line 3,000 miles long. The situation apparently is that from three provinces in particular there is a large trade in bootlegging to, the United States. These, are Onr tarid, Quebec and British Columbia-. At the same time a respectable quan tity of fiery liquid .is finding its way across from the Maritime Provinces' and from Manitoba. - j -At Windsor and in' the surround ing districts the Mounted Police, are carrying , on I a constant ' campaign against the Illegal' liquor vendors, and many have been hauled into court and condemned to pay fines from $200 up. One parched Detroit man, however, is said to have parted with $500 for threa cases of Scotch whis key, whrch reached him via the "un derground route" a short time ago, so that the profits in the illegal trade i are known to be enormous. Informa- j tion from Windsor and district Inti mates to the authorities here that some farmers in- that vicinity havo found it more profitable to smuggle liquor across the border than to farm, and have let their farms run to weeds while they pursue the elu sive dollar via the, bootlegging route. Quebec, it is stated, is the mecca for thirsty thousands of Americans every week-end, and .automobiles pasing back and forth carry their loads of human and other, freight, bound for the Sahara across the bor der. , Under these conditions, Cana dian police authorities admit - it . is practically imposible to enforce the stringent liquor laws at present In force. . '.' : ;:': ...;:.;" The chief reason for the difficulty Of enforcement, according to an offi cial of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who have under their: juris diction the carying out of all feder al laws, Is the fact that many peo ple are not in -sympathy with the li quor legislation, and the securing or contraband liquor is regarded in many quarters as an achievement rather than a disgrace. - However, if the carrying of liquor into the United States from Canada is to be prevented, it is intimated that it will have to be done by an army of, customs inspectors and police on the American side of the line rather than in Canada.
