Preparing For
Dope Smuggling
SEATTLE—(>P)—Business agent
Ed Coester of the sailors union of
the Pacific said an agreement had
been reached with the War Ship
ping Administration and ship op
erating agents providing for first
class passage home for crews of
ships sold aboard.
Last week Coester said the
union would refuse to man such
ships until first class return trans
portation was assured. He said the
action was the outgrowth of
charges by returning crewmen
that they had oeen quartered in
shi-p’s holds and forced to work
enroute or “go to the brig.”
Pacific Sailors
Reach Agreement
SEATTLE—(/P)—E. L. Chitten
den of the U. S. Customs office
here said customs enforcement of
ficers were going through "re
fresher” courses to prepare for an
anticipated upsurge of narcotics
smuggling from the orient.
“We are preparing to meet what
may be the biggest attempt in |
years to revive dope smuggling,”
he said, adding that huge stocks
were believed hidden in Oriental
ports, awaiting an outlet.

400,000 Americans a year.
