English liquor smugglers ship 8000 tons monthly to Bahamas
London dispatch says a Daily Express correspondent reports up to 8000 tons of brandy and whisky leave a single English port monthly for Bermuda and the Bahamas. Much liquor allegedly ends up in the United States, via adulterated cargoes and fast motor boat runs, despite seizures. The piece notes Nassau and offshore crews, including night unloading by eager workers, as part of the route.
