Another Glynn Deficit.

How much Governor wu1rMAN's
efforts to escape responsibility for re-
moving the Democrats who hold Jobs
on the Public Service Commissions
have cost the State has not yet been
disclosed. Legislative committees,
with their members living high in cx-
p~"nsive hotels, and neat little sums
served up in st%enogrnphic and print.
Ing bills, come high. Even when the
counsel to the committee expects to
get the ONCE OF the man he attacks
his aids do not forget TO charge q Fec
for their services TO the legislature.
Had the Governor been willing at
the outset 10 adopt the course he has
at last been compelled To take these
expenses would have been az ved. He
might have acted on complaints made
directly to him. or a commissioner
under the Morcland act would have
been economical in comparison with
a legislative committee. But Mr..
WHITMAN wanted somebody else to
bear the burden OF responsibility, and
his disappointment over the outcome
Of the legislative inquest Is not
diminished by the uncomfortable fact
that his w lack OF tact was largely
responsible for its unsatisfactory,
even %pOrtentous, Significance.
Nevertheless, there is one CLEAN Of
comfort. one ray Of hope for MIR.
WHITMAN. 1t is true that he has
been unable TO evadc the partisan OBJ
legations Of his Office. and that he
has put unnecessary costs on the tax

with statements made by the Rev.
Percy Sticknev Grant. | hin in ex-

or his opinions that we hear of. one
must remember that unfortunately the

respect for the canon law and the fol-

WOMEN AT ~"AUCTfON."
Many Play Well, but Why Are Their
Husbands Such Brutes?

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SuN-Sir: You
ask. "Has any woman ever learned to
play auction ~" The answer is most
emphatlcally IN the Affirmative. as The
men who attend the invitation dupli-
cate games at the Knickcrbocker Whist
CLUB of New York on the first and third
Mondays Of each month can testify. The
women who attend these games are ex-
collent players n probably there are
twenty women hereabout who can play
a. well as any twenty men to he found
IN Greater New York. These are ex-
ports, not only thoroughly familiar with
the leads. tho echoes and the biddings.
but witches in drawing differences and
as cold as ice in playing the cards.
Many OF them are veterans In whist,
having wpn hundreds OF prizes at State
and national tournaments. and the men
who try 10 fool them by blum bids or
false cards or irregular leads are in
danger of having their hides hung on
the wall.
When &, comes to the averag the
inference which THE SUNS question
conveys IL sound. In all card games
requiring a high degree OF skill the
average woman is inferior to the av-
erage man There Ia no doubt about
that AZ all. \ partial explanation Is

she IL thinking OF the deal that went
badly while she IS playing the next. or
she allows bad luck to destroy her

In the fact that women are not 20 easily

for the fundamental principles and the
man made conventions. I ono knew

She was demonstrated with perfectly
