TREATING

out of all the mass of suggestions
for checking the evil of alcoholism;
lagiAation, force, arbitrary limiting
ui personal liberty, and all the rest of
il, comes now and then practical
suggestion which is refreshing, says
the Albuquerque Herald. One of
these is the suggestion made by
Francis e. Wood of Albuquerque to
the Knights of Columbus in meet
ing of that order at Las Vegas last
Sunday. Mr.. Wood suggested that
the order as an organization place
the ban of disapproval upon the great
American institution of treating; that
it take a stand against the custom
handed down from our fathers OF
"have one on me-" os
Mr.. Wood suggests that if the Gus
tom of treating in saloons and other
public places where liquor is sold is
done away with, the consumption of
alcoholic liquors in this country. in
stead Of the regular annual increase,
promptly would be decreased about
one-half. He thinks the annual crop
of habitual drunkards would be re-
duced by at least one-half The
chances are that Mr.. Wood is just
about right. Think over the list of
your friends and acquaintances and
count from among them the number
of men who drink alone in public
places. The smallness of the num-
ber will astonish you. And from
those who do drink alone, the con-
firmed consumers of excessive guam
titles of alcohol, count those who
have reached She stage where liquor
has become a necessity, who reached
that stage through the sociability
route. It's probable you will find
90 per cent arrived that way.
No man deliberately becomes a
drunkard. The habit is creeping
habit. 1t does not grasp and throttle
it's victim all at once. like opium or
cocaine. The treating custom is the
national greaser of the skids, -
1t is mighty easy to 'take another
with a group of friends. 1t is mighty
hard to keep away from the have
a little one with me" when the other
fellows are buying. One hates a
stpiker'' and hates to be one Our
national institution of treating is SO
well established and SO widely re
spected that the man who doesn't
conform just about has to climb on
the water wagon and be a clam
TO stretch one drink into ten is the
easiest thing under the shining sun;
and with ten under his belt, there is
no limit to liberality. even with the
rent money.
Mr.. Wood doesn't propose to stop
treating By law. He doesn't even
propose to place any check on hospi-
fality with liquor in the home. at
least we assume he does not, since

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, June Favorable weather
over the entire domestic winter and
spring crop regions put the wheat
market today under considerable sell
ing pressure. The bears had a flIrth-
er advantage in the fact that Liver
pool quotations showed no response to
yesterdays advance on this side of the
Atlantic. Besides, Oklahoma dispatch
es said that although rust spores were
manifest, no damage had yet become
apparent. After opening Il to ss to
to h@s cent lower, the market suf-
fered a material additional setback.
The close, although steady was at a
net decline of %@% to 1@1b. III
Corn eased off with wheat and as a
result of cheaper offerings from Ar
gentina. Excellent growth conditions
in the United States operated also
against the bulls. Prices which start
ed x to 1a@% down, continued to de-
cline. The close was steady but ss
to %@1 cent net lower.
Sellers formed a majority in the
oats crowd. The chief influence was
the weakness of other grain.
Shorts covering turned the provision
market upgrade. Higher prices at
the yards furnished the incentive. The
closing quotations were as follows:
Wheat, July s67s; Sept. S51s.
Corn, May July 6Sas; Sept. 667s.
Oats, July 397s; Sept. 37%.
Pork, July $40. 471a; Sept. s19. .971a.

Hghest-paid patrolmen of the
South Park board get SIS less a month
than the same class of patrolmen in
other parks. And they get SIS a
month less than city policemen of the
same grade.
First-year policemen on the South
Park board get $40 a month, as
against SIS and $50 a month with
the West Park board and SIS a month
from the city Of Chicago.
Joseph Donnersberger, auditor of
the board, appointed commissioner
tire years ago, makes no excuse or
apology for the low wages paid pa
trolmen. To Day Book reporter,
he said:
eyes, we pay less for policemen
than the city does. We pay $91.67
or $95 to third-year men and the city
pays $100. But the work in parks is
different. It is easier to handle
crowds and keep order in park than
to watch the traffic at downtown
street corner or to go down in the
redight district and make arrests as
the city policemen do. There is not
theh danger nor risk in park work"
The reporter broke in: But don't
you want superior type of man for
your parks, men superior in cour-
tesy, alertness and thoughtfulness in
handling the needs of crowds? Quick,
intelligent park policemen give bet
ter attention to mothers and children
who come to the parks, don't they"
''The best men we need can be had
for the amount we now pay. You
ought to see what a long waiting list
we have of good men who want to
be park patrolmen, who would work
for even less than we are now pay
ing" -.
''But why not pay your third-year
men 500 a month and equal the rec
ord of the city and the record of the
other park boards for generosity"
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-12-14

could do ten times the work Of ten
of these old men we have. 1t is these
older men that we are charitable to
that are making most complaint"
Maybe they have larger families
than the younger men and more cares
of money on their shoulders"
"That's not the business of the
park board"
"Do you consider these older men
entitled to pension? Or do you ex-
pect them to die working for the
South Park board?"
"They are practically pensioned
now. They draw their money regu-
larly for very light work"
"Do you think the South Park
board will ever pay third year police
men $110 month as the city does?"
eff the city chooses to pay. more
than we do, the city has right to
do So. We have a long waiting list.
If any men don't like the conditions
why don't they quit their jobs. The
fact is most o fthe men are salts
fed but there are always few kick
ers."
Mr. Donnersberger, the South
Park board is the only one that has
been compelled to hear graft charges
among it's patrolmen. If there is
graft and few patrolmen are work
ing confidence games on the public,
do you think that fact has any con-
nection with the fact that you pay
the lowest patrolmen's wages of any
park board in the city,"
HAS nothing to do with the case,
absolutely nothing
