Washington April 8, 1929 - Assistant Secretary Lowman said today that the Norwegian steamship Juan halted by shots from a coast guard patrol boat in Chesapeake Bay Friday night was stopped because the Coast Guard had information that ships from the West Indians (Indies?) were landing liquor in the bay before docking in Baltimore. He added that the law made it mandatory for the coast guard to take some action.
