A Vest Pocket Edition of He'll

Mayor Harrison has been severely blamed for
fusing to allow the Freiberg saloon and dance hall in
the old evee district Twenty-second street to re-
open, but it is just about the commendable act
in his checkered administration.
Frebergs is type of dance hall of which Chi
cago has all too many it s-resorts which,
Mayor Harrison says could not be run without the
patronage of fallen women gunner and thieves" AS
reads the testimony concerning these resorts
is reminded of Mr.. John Burns remark after visiting
several OF them, that Chcago is vespocket edition
of HE'LL and of his subsequent amendment of that
remark to read Hell is vest-pocket edition OF
Chicago"
Fortunately, this type OF dance hall is the excep-
ton in Chicago, but it is here, nevertheless and
the forces which exploit 1.-THE liquor nterests-never
sumber sleep in their efforts control the better
class of dance halls well.

more dangerous of the two. Liquor is still permitted
to be sold in connection with them and the tempta-
tions to many. To them repair respectable
girls who would not think of entering of the other
sort of halls. Here especially thousands of work
girls go in search of much needed recreation and it is
sad fact that not few of them are started down the
gilded road to ruin

would be a supcrtaX on incomes of
$4,000 a year and upwards, instead of
the supertaN beginning as at present,
with incomes of $4,000 a year.
With this new graduated scale of
income tax rates the total income tax,
