That's to be dealt with as it turns

But in the fifty-six hours of unmitigat-

dured in their flight across India he
had leisure to think matters over very
carefully, with the result that, all
things considered, he felt justified in
the world to be in league
against him and in shaping his course
accordingly. Therefore it were un-
wise to permit himself to be seen and
recognized in Calcutta, or even to lin
ger on the soil of India an instant
longer than absolutely necessary.

at Howrah, he had, by dint of per-

Every now and then some citizens
protest against this or that nuisance

and seek the Offices Of their Coun-
cilmen 10 have said nuisance abated.
There are enough laws in the ordi-
nance book of the town to paper a
room. The great trouble With Smyr-
ma, its laws are not properly enforc-
ed. No one seems to want to take
the responsibility. If a citizen makes
complaint on a certain law being
broken, the natural thing TO go to
the town police The latter says he
gets his orders from the town alder
man. The alderman says he can't do
anything until he gets his orders from
Council. Council. in turn, says the
ordinances are In charge OF the al
derman and II is his business to see
that the police enforce them. And
there you arel No one seems to want
TO take the responsibility. The con-
sequence is drunkenness and disor-
der go on without punishment; loaf
ing on street corners goes on unabat-
ed and town ordinances are continu-
ally being broken. We do not wish 10
insinuate there Is no order or decor

Nevertheless cases are bobbing up

sideration and citizens so annoyed
ought not 10 be put to the trouble Of
demonstrating to council when the
nuisance can be abated by our alder

ton in this regard would help mat
