Bootle farmers say that the highjacker
frequently shoots from pure cruelty.

Method* Of The Fast Traveler.
Up to this writing: there has been
no three-cornered encounter of boot
legger, highjacker and enforcement
agents. Agents have struck the hot
trail of the highjacker, however, al
most immediately after a holdup. The
highjacker travels fast. Horne of the
agents, particularly those operating
along the northwestern border, be
liever that highjacker cars are fre
quently geared for higher speed than
the cars used by automobile drivers
generally.
Along the costs of the Atlantic, the
Gulf of Mexico, the Pacaflc, the Great
Lakes and Puget Sound the highjacker
operates to some extent along the
Automobile routes, but his main ef
fort appears to be to intercept liquor
at the point of landing, sometimes
holding up the crews of the small
boats used to bring the liquor ashore,
sometimes waiting in concealment un- !
til the boat Is gone and the liquor is !
ready to be concealed or taken away.
