TRIALS OF MR COOLIDGE
LIQUOR HIDDEN NEXT DOOR CHIEF OF POLICE ARRESTED By Telegraph.— Asun. —CopyrightAustralian atvi VZ, Cable Assofintion (Received July 8, 5.5 p.m.) NEW YORK, July 7. President Coolidge has ordered a coast patrol to attack a fleet of rumrunners plainly visible from the President’s summer residence at Swampscott, Massachusetts. General Andrews, chief of prohibition enforcement, is concentrating . the guardsmen afloat and ashore to prevent the bootleggers’ ships supplying Boston and the manufacturing towns in Massachusetts. The President is expected to recommend a larger appropriation for enforcement in the event of the failure of the attack. Swampscott is a favourite haunt for smugglers, owing to the number of its bays and inlets. Three thousand dollars’ worth of liquor was recently discovered hidden in an unoccupied house adjoining the President’s residence, and as the result the chief of police at Swampscott was arrested.
