SALOON EVILS POINTED OUT
BY SALOON MEN
Let the city give the saloonkeeper
square deal, then make the saloon
keeper give the city a square deal
and there will be no trouble from the
saloons. That's what two saloon
keepers and retired brewer told the
municipal commission on liquor traf-
fic yesterday
about 10 per cent of Chicago's
saloons are objectional, said Theo.
Oehne, retired brewer. "The city can
easily rid itself of this 10 per cent.
about 1000 saloonkeepers are
losing money every day and cabar-
cts, which have an evil influence, are
helping to lose lots of money.
'Breweries own 5000 saloon
licenses and the barkeeps who work
under brewery license get much
better consideration than the indie
pendent license owner. Stamp out
gambling in the saloons and keep
criminals out of them"
LET the policeman patrol my sa-
loon just as he does his beat" said
]. M. Maskell, saloonkeeper, 1859 w.
Adams. 81 try to keep criminals out
of my place, but 1 can't always tell
them. The policeman should be able
to spot them at once.
"Saloonkeepers keeping disorder
7y places are doing so with knowl-
edge of the police. They can't run
racing handbooks or let soliciting
women come into their saloons with
out paying the police for the privi-
lege."
Thos. Grief, 1927 N. Western av.,
who has been keeping a saloon 10
years without getting into trouble
once, says saloons would not lose
money if they were. forbidden to sell
anything but beer and wine.

Mrs. celia Davis, a star among
women bowlers of Cleveland, O., has
introduced a bowling skirt that
probably will become popular among
women who followed the sport.
The skirt is divided, like the kind
sometimes used for horseback rid
ing. There is panel that buttons
across the skirt when it is to be
worn on the street, so it cannot be
seen the skirt is divided.
Golf has hit Japan with a bang and
it is predicted that within year or
so Japs will play in tournaments for
the open championship. Clubs have
been formed at Toxic, Yokohama
and Kobe and beautiful courses laid
out.
The Japs have been quite prof.
cient in baseball for some time and
fencing and wrestling are compul-
sorry in the education of high-born
boys. Hockey and football are being
taken up.

Every record for a single months ship
ment Of automobiles in America was
broken in the month of January. The
report of ]. S. Martin. head of the Traf-
fic Department of the National Automo-
bile Chamber of Comerce, for the month
Of January, was completed at the offices
of the chamber Saturday The total
number Of freight cars used by the auto
mobile manufacturers was 1864.
TIE new record figures show the first
month OF the year to have been the
largest month in motor car production
ever known. and when it is taken into
consideration that January in the past
has been comparatively quiet month, II
may be seen that the chances of 1916 be-
ing a record year under anywhere near
favorable circumstances are exceedingly
bright.
Notwithstanding the congested railroad
conditions and the shortage Of cars
the manufacturers were able to shin
with satisfactory results. The railroads
and manufacturers co-operated to q
greater degree than ever and an extra
effort was made to supervise the use OF
special cars for automobile shipments
Conditions were adverse at all times
Special representatives of the N. A. C.
c. and the officials of the organization
travelled through the South, New Eng.
land and the West to see that every rail.
road in the country was on the alert
to give automobile equipment proper
handling of the immense volume of bust.
ness. Hundreds of automobile cars were
located in this way and turned into
manufacturing territories. Dealers In
all parts of the country were urged To
unload cars promptly and were told that
this would enable shipments in the fu.
ture.
The Traffic Department of the N, A.
c. C., which is in daily touch with the
railroads throughout the country, on
movement of these automobile cars, has
given the matter important attention
during the last few weeks and Mr.. Mar.
vim took up his headquarters i'm Detroit
spending practically all of his time In
Detroit and vicinity. Frequent meetings
Of the members of the association have
been held.
In spite of the record shipment Mr.
Marvin said that many of the big pro-
ducers OF cars would have done better il
the assembling of machines had not beer
necessarily curtailed to a considerable
extent to adjust the output to Transports
ton facilities.
