tip-to-Date Smuggling by Airplane and Submarine W ASHINGTON.—Smuggling and rum-running on a large scale by airplane and submarine Is looked for In the very near future by Daniel C. Roper, eonmlastoner of Internal revenue, and by other government officials unlsns preparations are mnde la advance to defeat the twentieth century smug-
gler*
The attention of the treasury department was particularly directed to this new danger of employing modern method: In smuggling by the accidental capture of an airplane that came across the Canadian border Into northern New York with aereral cases of contraband liquor. It wa* eptlrely owing to an accident, however, th-it this capture was made, and the officials of the government have no doubt that large quantities of contraband liquor have reached thla country already over the same air route. There to reason to believe that some venturesome pioneers of this new mode of smuggling through the air here already landed aereral thousands off dollars' worth of semiprecious stones from the topas mines in Mexico, somewhere In the Interior of the United States. At any rate, the menace to the national revenues has become so Immediate that Secretory Glass has decided that he will ask ^ngreas for transfer Of dOff airplanes and hydro-airplanes from the army and navy to his department and tunds ec.ugh to create an effective sir patrol. Later on he win ask also for the transfer from the nary of a large fleet of boats specially designed for chasing submarines. In order to protect the sea coasts and .nstusries from the danger of smuggling by submarines.
