the spending lowering of the moral
tone of the country, and called upon
the congress OF governors and the

by the national congress regulating the

face. The report denounced automobil-
ing as leading in the wrong direction,
the fascination for this amusement
causing girls TO go out with strange
men 1t also denounced the acceptance
Of unknown and untried men into the

HUNDRED THOUSAND
Commissioner of Licenses
Makes Report to Mayor
Gaynor on Subject.

NEW YORK, May 5.-New York city's
supply Of women for domestic house,
work Is short of the actual demand by
at least 100000, according to a report
made to Mayor Gaynor by Herman
Robinson, commissioner OF licenses.
Commissioner Robinson cited the case
of a manufacturer living in Mt. Ver-
non who sought to obtain servant for
his home.
Commissioner. Robinson believes girls
refuse to become servants because they
desire to have their Sundays free, and
because servants In apartment houses
may receive no callers. Factories are
attractive, he says, because the girls
are allowed to sing while at work and
talk among themselves.
Mr.. Robinson discovered that the
scarcity of servants has become 80
pressing OF late that employment agen-
cies no longer exact a fee from women
who register in their offices, but charge
a larger fee to employers seeking sery-
ants. This increased fee, he says, Is
paid without question, indicating the
demand is far above the supply. Each
vesr, says the commissioner, the num-
ber of girls willing to enter domestic
service Is decreasing. and the servant
problem Is deepening in proportion.
wages Is not so important to the
servant as conditions that should make
domestic service more attractive he
saws in his report Seemingly the en-
pIoyer must bring about these condi-
tons Servants have solved their slue
of the problem by abandoning domestic
service for other pursuits in large num-
bers.'
