The English Pub.

C"An American Observer" IN Tho London Morning
Post)
For all practical purposes, as far as the
public Is concerned, an English public house
Is SIS truly three, and sometimes even four,
different resorts, as though that number of
different establishments were lined up along
the street, one next to the other each under
different ownership and each under a sepa-
rate license. This IS a most formidable fact,
which seems TO have largely escaped the at
tention which II deserves, as well from the
public authorities as from social students
and reformers. The real truth is that if we
consider that every licensed house is in fact,
on the average, practically three distinct
drinking places with an entirely different
clientele in each, we find that the number of
places for the sale and consumption Of in
toxicants far exceeds that given by the usual
statistics, and the proportion Of such number
to population is very much more unfavorable
to these islands, as compared with other
countries, than is generally understood. The
direct corollary from the above is that were
the partitions or screens separating the diff
ferent classes Of bars" in the public houses
Knocked away-if the law required all service
for consumption on the premises to be made
in one open, undivided room, the number Of
drinking resorts would be reduced auto
matically to a very great extent The British
nation is, politically, among the most demo-
cratic in personal habits il Is possibly the
least so. Here, caste is king as perhaps no
where else among the white races, and few
public houses could hold their present ellen
tele were their customers compelled to min
gle together as are those resorting TO similar
in other countries Such a
change would force the licensed vender OF
intoxicants to choose what character he pre-
fers to give to his premises, and what class
Of trade he would endeavor to purvey 70, and
his clientele would be confined almost ex-
clusiyely 10 one social class.

Efficiency"
the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A great deal has been heard lately
Of the present efficiency Of the various de-
partments of our city government. and
would therefore like to call attention to a
particular piece of efficient work which has
just come to the notice Of the residents of
West Ninety-sixth Street.
About two weeks ago a small hole ap-
peared in the roadway in Ninety-sixth Street
between Central Park West and Columbus
Avenue, at the exact spot where about a
year ago some minor repairs were made to a
leaking water main.
Nothing was done until this morning at
1:15 o'clock, while the residents were at
tempting to recover from the effects of the
unreasonable weather handed out yesterday
by the Weather Bureau, when a wagon of the
Department Of Water Supply drew up, IN
loaded four men and q foreman and an as
hammers. With these utensils the men en-
Enthusiastically attacked the pavement and i'm
mediately aroused the earnest attention of
everybody on the block.
After listening to the internal din for
about a half hour l teephoned to Police
Headquarters and asked that policeman be
sent to investigate. One called from the
Tooth Street station, and I asked him whether
anything could be done to defer until a rea-
sonable hour the efficient work that was 60
ing on before his eyes, especially in view of
the fact that the hole in the middle Of the
street had not increased to any appreciate
extent since 1t was first discovered. He re-
GREETED that he could do nothing, as he could
not interfere with another city department.
This shows the efficient coordination now
existing between two city departments) He
told me that he knew also that the hole had
been in the street for at least two weeks.
The work continued merrily until $3.50 this
morning, and by that time hole about feet
long and IS inches wide had been opened at
the curbstone in front of No. Al.
have been requested by some of the
neighbors, especially by representatives Of
three of them confined to their beds by ILL
ness, to voice their appreciation Of the ere
markable efficiency" suddenly displayed by
the Department of Water Supply, etc, and
to thank the gentlemen responsible for this
efficiency.

The Extent Of Unemployment.

The report of the Federal Department
Of Labor that in February of this year
there were $4,000 unemployed of both
sexes in this city is ample confirmation
Of earlier estimates made by Mayor Nit
chefs committee, labor leaders and
others who at the time were accused Of
historical exaggeration. This figure by
no means represents the total number
Of those out Of work during the winter,
for "on account Of the difficulty Of secur-
inc definite information in regard to
irregular or part-time workers" all such
we're included in the number listed as
employed. 1t is altogether likely, there
fore, that at the crisis of the unemploy-
ment situation there were at least 900
persons without work here.
Fortunately, a gradual improvement
in business conditions and the possibility
Of outdoor work have taken care Of a
good many of these job seekers. 1t is
not to be expected, though, that unem-
ployment, with its attendant suffering
and misery, will assume its normal
proportions this summer; and assuredly
next winter, while everybody hopes it
will not be like the one just ended, is
bound to present serious problems in re-
lief work.

Adaptability of Statistics.
lFrom The lfedical Time,l

FTVW
Our statisticians spin some wonderful fig
ures in computing the economic loss to the
nation through morbidity and deaths from
tuberculosis and other scourges. They place
very high value on human lives in this con-
nection. But when they are computing what
surgeons ought TO be paid for their services
in conserving human lives and health under
the workmen's compensation act the figures
are very low. The medical men who repre-
scented" the profession in making up q more
or less tentative fee schedule figured very
closely, and forgot all about their tubercu-
losis statistics We are glad to learn that In
rendering bills the surgeons forget all about
that precious fee schedule.

stakes that are being played for IN the
Carpathians.
In December Germany turned east TO
dispose of Russia, having failed to deal
with France decisively. In April, with
Russia still in tho field, still advancing,
she turned west TO meet Allied offensive,
daily growing more insistent. The nib
bling" Of JofTre In Lorraine, Of French
in Flanders had become as troublesome as
the autumn attacks Of the Grand Duke
Nicholas. So Napoleon IN his closing days
wrestled unsuccessfully with the peril
mounting from Spain across the Pyren-
ees, while his greater foes in Germany
pressed ever more irresstibly upon his
failing numbers.
Nor was the situation improved when
German attention was called TO the at
tack upon her Turkish ally at the Darda-
ucI,cs. On the issue of this conflict de-
pended the ultimate decision Of Rumania
and Bulgaria, of Italy and Greece, but
their decision lay between neutrality and
participation in the work of the Allies,
the work of destruction of Austria and
Turkey. Turkish resistance, Austrian
success IN the Carpathians, these might
postpone the evil day, but by no stretch
of imagination could Berlin longer hope
for new allies.
In sum, the end of the winter campaign
saw German fortunes in the east not less
desperate than they had been in the opening
weeks of winter She had won provinces
and lost time, now she must deal with all
three Of her opponents, for the first time
prepared as she had been in August.
Hope of a decision against one had van
ished. Only her own allies were weaker
than in August; France, Russia, even Eng
land, were ready now. Not only ready,
but in the Carpathians and in France and
Belgium pressing more and more heavily
against German resistance, German de-
fence. Germany had been granted her
her chance for a decision.
Spring saw the Allies reaching out to
grasp their chance, saw the whole problem
of the Great War changing with the sea-
son.

Vaccination Seems Wrong" to Her

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir; | notice Philip De VOLTS statement
with regard to vaccination does not speak of
any attempt TO clean up the Indian camp by
hygienic measures. More poison put into the
bodies Of the Indians may act on the princi-
pie that like cures like, but the principle
seems wrong to me. A test was made with
the same money that had formerly been used
to vacccinate with to clean up a village, and
as matter OF fact rarely has a case of
smallpox been seen there since.
Since the government cleaned up Cuba and
the isthmus men live where formerly the
death rate was very great. Let US hope that
sanitary help may be given the ignorant;
then there will be less need for vaccination.
