Paris. Feb. H.-The Chamber of Depu-
ties has been discussing drinks-at the
bar of the house. not at the buffet out
side though the discussion was continued
there. II has been calculated by some
one that in France there is one licensed
house for every twenty male adults. One
proposal was that no new cafes should
be opened within a certain radius OF
churches. town halls, and other public
buildings.
Somebody. however. pointed out and
proved by statistics that there is not the
remotest connection between the number
Of cafes and the number Of 'drunks' in
any department OF the country.
