Ernest H. Cherrington, editor of Anti-Saloon League publications, warns in Baltimore that automobile and air smuggling tied to Prohibition is growing. He cites a 17 500 mile border reach and 1 000 private aircraft moving millions of miles, predicting a radical shift in international relations as smuggling expands.
