200 ragged, fam.shed creatures. They
had stood in line for two hours IN
near-zero weather to get free cup
of coffee and sandwich.
For three hours it was the biggest
show for Broadway-a drama of
striking contrasts. Under the eyes OF

from the cold by expensive furs, men
swathed to the neck In heavy over
coats. the procession Of thinly-clad
women and men surged slowly toward
the door where white-capped walters
passed out steaming hot food
The lobby and the tea rooms be-
came deserted, while some OF Ameri-
cas- best known young mill.onaires
and heiresses swarmed around the
corner to watch the spectacle Anotf-
er crowd poured into the street from
Broadway, until Police Sergeant Pat
rick Gum executed a raid on wha.
he called "the army of the unem-
ployed."
A little hollow faced woman, who
bit nervously at her cold, blue fin
gers was the first guest" She
gulped down a cup OPT coffee and
fled with huge frankfurter sand
WITCH tucked away in her coat pocket
Next in line was a gray-haired old
woman. then a slender, white-faced
girl with two little children Juggling
at her skirts. She passed sandwiches
and coffee first to the children and
then deyoured her own portion in
three raps5 gulps. A limousine rolled
up TO the curb. From a window,
woman stared curiously at the crowd
sandwiches. I'D worked all
day for what she pays for gaso-
line" said the white-faced girl. At
the door was sign reading, Wei

MAKING DOG QUESTION
A POLITICAL ISSUE

State Auditor Donahey has declared
war on the tramp cur dog. He wants
him either killed or taxed. In south
ern Ohio hill counties the outcast dog
has well nigh ruined the sheep indus
try. Last year tax on Ohio dogs am
ounted to $233,79O. The total dam
ages waid was $105,702.
Only half the dogs are listed for
taxes. Many that are listed never pay.
Hamilton county has the moct dogs,
nearly 10000. In 1868 there were T.
688,845 sheep in Ohio. Today only
1927, ,904. The price of both wool and
mutton is higher now than the average
price for many years. Knox county
leads with $4,000 sheep.
In Medina county for the year end
ing April 10, 1915, 496 sheep valued at
$2,357, had been killed by dogs; 1893
were injured at a cost to the county
of ,$462; the total amount paid out for
sheep killed and injured was $1,859;
amount paid for witness fees, $88.14;
total damages paid, $1,938.14. The
amount on hand at the beginning of
the year was $3,043.O2; amount per
capita tax on dogs collected, $2,011.30.
The last legislature passed a bill pro
viding that each dog, on which tax
was paid, wear metal tag with these
words, "Dog Tax Paid" For first
male dog 81. For each additional
dog So. For first female dog 81 and
for each additional $6. Dogs not wear
ing the tag to be killed. Sheep own
ers in the sheep counties demanded
this law. The lew makers passed it.
Governor Willis vetoed it.
The increasing number of hydro
phobia cases and danger to human be-
ings as we'll as animals has made the
tramp dog question political issue in
some townships of Ohio, and is con-
sidered much more important than the
question Of tariff on wool.
