PORT GETS BOARDING BOAT
Revenue Cutter Guthrie Turned Over
to the Customs Inspectors' Service
Philadelphia no longer will be a port
of entry without n customs inspectors'
boarding boat. The government authori
ties have ordered the revenue cutter
Gu(hrln turned over to'fhn inspectors
for their exclusive use. This is the
first time since tho war began thnt the
city hna had such a vcbsc! despite Its
growing importance as a trade port.
Hntil war was declared the customs
authorities were .provided with a ves
sel. On April tl, 1017, when the dec
laration of war was apnioved, all such
vctsela were immediately turned over
b. consequence the handling ot Incoming
craft wnn much handicapped. Collector
of the Port Herry announced that the
acquisition of the Guthrie will ma
terially help in ending the shipping con
gestion that has prevailed here recently.
