ditions will be based.
The solution to the economic evils of
the day, declared Rev. Augustus ].
Duarte, s. J.. president of the Truth
Society, Is social reform upon a Chris
tian basis" The present unjust distribu-
ton of the rewards of labor and other

CITIZENS RESENT
POLICE ACTIVITY
Mid City Body Hears Persons
Are Arrested for Looking
in Windows.
BERBERICH GIVES FACTS
Protests Made Against Alleged ':Per-
secution" Of Saloon Men in Up
per Seventh Street.
BERBERICH GIVES FACTS

The recent activities of the police OF
the Second precinct in arresting large
numbers OF persons for lettering in Upper
Seventh street was resented by members
of the Mid-City Citizens Association last
night. The committee will meet tomor-
row night at 719 Seventh street northwest
and decide on what action the association
shall take.
THE police have been unduly vigilant
on Seventh street within the last few
weeks in making unwarranted arrests OF
people on the charge Of unlawful assem-
bly," said Joseph Berberich, a Seventh
street merchant ''In many cases police
in plain clothes have stepped out on these
people from behind show cases when
they had been standing but q few mo-
ments."
The committee also was instructed to
investigate the fight being waged on sa-
looms in Upper Seventh street by the
Anti-Saloon League and a number OF In
dividuals. Members of the associa ton
who brought up the matter said that
they were not indorsing the liquor busi-
ness. but that they believed In fair play
for all.
There Is no one more anxious to
see the manufacture OF liquor pro-
hibited than l." said one member.
but IL the business is permitted at all
there should be fair play and not per
secution of a certain few. II they
leave saloons on one business street
and take them from another business
is bound to be hurt on the street on
which the saloon has been closed. But
until they legislate to close saloons on
all streets do not think there should
be discrimination"
That the Seventh street merchants
will hold another carnival next year
even more successful than the recent
one was indicated when Joseph Ber-
berich introduced a resolution that
the s144 balance from this years carni-
val fund be deposited as a sinking
fund for next year.
The carnival was one OF the big
gest things ever given in this town."
said Mr.. Berberich. chairman of the
carnival committee, in his report TT
has left a lasting impression lin the
minds of the people and i am sure
they will look forward to II every
year. With the experience gained
this year ] am sure the next one will
be a greater success"
