PUBLIC DRUNKENNESS
REDUCED BY 50 PER CENT
Results OF Rcsolutc Methods ap.
piled by England To HeGula-
ton of Drink Problem.
TREMENDOUS WORK AHEAD
Lord D'Abcrnon, Chairman Of Cen
trail Liquor Traffic Control Board,
Grants Interview TO Associated
Press Concerning Effects.

Il LONDON. May 6-rhc results OF
The resolute methods applied by Eng
land TO tho regulation Of the drink
problem nine months ago. after the
first lessons of the wars demands had
been learned. ere discussed in AN inter
view with n correspondent OF tho AS
chairman Of the Central Liquor Trahlo
Control Board. the organization hav-
ing tho work in hand.
Briefly. In areas accounting for ga
0oe,o0 out @: the 100000 ropula-
ton over which The board has ex-
tended its influence, Il has reduced
public drunkenness roughly by 30 per
cent The new regulations. however.
will not extend beyond Encland SCOT
land and Wales.
One OF Lord DAh.rnons most strik-
ing statements was his forecast that
were the problem Of Incompetence at
tackled with vigor and Skill three
fourths OF Tho drink evil might never
recur.
"Tha,, Of course. is one mans opin-

OF what VIC have been fortunate

Bear in mind that prohibition, as
understand It's application III the
United States and Canada. is largely
rural, while these figures ! have given
refer to the cities They compare
With your and he Canadian claims In
the prohibition areas Of reductions OF
about e6 per cent.
.'One Of the first points TO bear IN
mind in grasping the situation here is
that In the years Immediately proceed
inE the outbreak OF war. both the con.
sumption of alcohol and the number OF
convictions for public drunkenness
were steadily increasing.
ALSO. in the past, good trade mas
always conceded with an increase IN
consumption OF alcohol II is disap-
mounting. therefore, 20 realize that IN
1901! increased taxation OF aIcohol'
the temperance propaganda ana we
licensing regulations in force whlch
heretofore had resulted in an average
annual diminutiOn OF about LOCO Ncen-
ses. had not been sufficient to counter
act the influence Of good trade and
high wages.

flaming photographic tidings Of the
approach OF the big travelling amuse-
ment institution. They are under
the direction of Arthur e. Diggs, a
well-known circus advertising spe-
cialist.
More railroad cars are required to
transport the show, bigger tents are
raised, more area is needed to ac-
commodate the show than ever be-
fore. In fact, the circus has reached
a point where it is the despair OF
many OF the smaller railroads and
taxes their facilities TO the limit,
eighty-nine cars are needed TO con-
yey the gigantic canvas vagrant from
town TO town.
There's material enough in this
years circus to make a dozen cir
cuses of the old days. "A big top"
ESQ feet long, nearly 1900 employees,
three rings, four elevated platforms,
acres OF aerial apparatus. 1OS-cage

This season the arenic entertainment
is inaugurated by the pageant Persia

The subsequent three-hOur arenic
