In the annual report on the de rartment of commerce, published today, Secretary Hoover in statistics on the country's foreign trade last year, gives $40,000,000 as an estimate of the cost of bootlegged foreign liquor.

Officials connected with customs service are said to regard this as a low estimate. Will Extend War Presumably the coast guard will extend its activities to prevent the thirst of Californians being satisfied in an illegal manner. The increasing activities of the coast guard are being supplemented by considerable sponging up of liquor that leaked ashore. Michigan state police have seized 360 cases of Canadian beer in boat houses near Mt. Clemens.

Eight more saloons have been closed by federal padlocksmiths in New York and a plant that did a large business in distributing rye whisky has been raided. Are Handicapped (By the Associated Press) San Diego, May of the coast guard force here admitted today that they were badly hampered in their efforts to stop the work of five large ships, four of them carrying British flags, and the other flying the Belgian colors, which are now cruising off the southern California coast ready to deliver cargoes of liquor to fast boats from shore. The ships are all faster than the coast guard cutters and the small boats which go out for illicit cargoes also are faster than the government craft. The coast guard cutter Tamaroa, now in port, found the rum fleet off Santa Rosa island, which is one of the Santa channel group, on the night 4. When dayBarbara, light came, the Tamaroa's officers saw the five large freighters, their decks piled high with cases of whisky, only a short distance from the island.

With them was a score of fast motor launches, supposed to have come from San Pedro. That the rum fleet 1s receiving able assistance from confederates ashore, was the statement made by officers of the Tamaroa. Coast guard officers said two rum runners were at anchor yesterday near the Cortes banks, sixty miles due west of Point Loma and two others were off Santa Rosa island. Experts say a third sex will result from women's entry into business. Then, men using cigarette holder will make a fourth.

Baker, 50, James McCarthy, 25, and Salvatore Diaz, 24, all of Chicago, were badly injured this morning on the Colon-Coldwater road four and a half miles east of Colon when an automobile in which they were riding struck a telephone, pole, breaking it and then down the road about 100 feet, finally turning over. Salvatore was pitched through a fence and into a clover field.

All of the men were given emer. gency medical treatment by Colon physicians and then removed to the hospital at Coldwater. All are civil engineers who have been making headquarters at the Grand hotel in Coldwater while surveying the St. Joe river. Baker's injurles, it was feared, included a fracture of the skull besides various cuts.

X-ray examination was to be made today. McCarthy has a fractured shoulder. Salvatore's injuries, aside from bruises, were internal. Baker was driving a Maxwell touring car. Just what happened is not known but it is presumed that the car was going at a high rate of speed and struck a rut, forcing the front wheels toward the telephone pole.

It was said at Coldwater, this afternoon that while injuries could not be ascertained it was not thought that any member of the party is in dangerous condition. The accident happened about 9 o'clock. Last year the average person ate 2,56 gallons of ice cream, nd, no doubt, wished for more. A man with tight shoes is more foolish than a woman with tight shoes because he should know better.
