American Jewellers have long complained to the Government that the large quantities of diamonds smuggled into the United States has made it difficult for, honest im- porters to compete in the diamond market here. They are elated ot the prospect that the gap in the Customs lines will soon be closed.

Ballyn is reported by the Customs

official to have given them the paine of his alleged "go-between" In Southampton, through whom it is hoped to trace other members of the gang, who have operated from | Antwerp and Amsterdam. No ap- praisal has so far been made of the two packages of unset stones, totalling 300 carata, which, charged, were found in Ballyn's cabin. But they are estimated to be worth £10,000.

According to the Government agents, Ballyn told them he received £20 for each package of jewels. The receivers of the smuggled | toria.. diamonds are believed to pay a fee amounting to 8 per cent. of the | wholesale value of the diamonds, and this amount le` distributed amonget the members of the gang. As the American duty on cut but unset dia- monds is 20 per cent., the dishonest Importer thus avoids 12 per cent. of the duty.
