ADJUSTMENTS MORE
POPULAR IN PARIS
Over 200 Places of Entertainment
Now Running Full Blast III
French Metropolis.

correspondence of The Associated PressD
Paris, March 19-Two hundred and
twenty-six places of entertainment
theaters, cinematO graphs, music halls
and cabarets,-are now running in
Paris as against 100 in January /,
1915. This number includes prac-
tically all the theaters of Paris and
the Opera whose performances are,
however, only intermittent matinecS.
No elaborate productions arc con-
tcmplated until circumstances radi-
cally change. OF the larger thcaters,
the Coincide Franchise is the only one
now playing every evening; the 9th
ers give from four to five perform
ances per week, while the smaller
theaters Of the different quarters
give three to four performances.
The moving picture shows are run
ming far ahead of the theaters in
popularity and total attendance. Dur
ing the month of December last the
number of spectators in the theaterS
was SO5.765. while during the same
month 1.604.519 persons witnessed
cinematOSraph performances. A.
com pared with the preceding year,
the increase in the number of the
atrical audiences was about $50, 900
while the increase in attendance Ct
moving picture shows IS attributc cd
largely to the interesting war films
that are shown each week. American
police films have also had q remark
able vogue during the season.
Though few original plays have
been produced since the war began,
the project Of police is nevertheless
kept busy reading new productions
and old ones with view to eliminat-
ing such passages as do not pass the
censorship. He has read ], 500 plays
and examined 5000 films since Au-
gust 81. 1915. He has also examined
IN average of $50 concert programs
per week representing a total Of
about 1000 songs each week, all Of
them practically new. This partial
revival of the theater has gone for
to relieve distress among dramatic
and lyric artists, but the salaries arc
nothing what they were before the
war. Most theaters pay very grUd-
gingly and some pay nothing at all,
filing their casts with artists who
arc in no dire distress and who pre-
fer to act for nothing rather than
grow rusty.

The lessons he had given them to study
over night.
He boosted Of the cargo of good live
stock he could land,
And didn't fear it might be taken up as
contraband.
His family did all the work on plans
that he might like;
He didn't have to worry while they
talked about a strike.
There wasn't any chance as he surveyed
the briny scene
Of sighting a torpedo travelling from &

He waved the olive branch with JOY
above his mighty craft,
And when he sent the dove aloft no
body sneered or laughed.
Although the details of the trip are lost

Enough is known to prove it was voy
age worth remark

The Saturday Half Holiday.

Heads Of departments are falling i'll
line in recommending the year-around
Saturday half holiday. The either day
Secretary McAdoo strongly Endorsed the
proposition, urging as a reason the fact
that during the summer the grant of
the weekly half holiday stimulated the
clerks to efforts to keep the work up
to current so as to insure the continue
ton of the privilege. A similar result
he believes. would follow the extension
of the half holiday through all the
months of the year. Now Secretary
Lansing adds his Endorsement to the
plan, and at the present rate the Presi
dent will shortly be furnished with the
approving opinions of all the members
of the cabinet. justifving him in writ
ing an executive order putting into full
effect the law which makes Saturday a
half holiday for government employees
in this District.
1t cannot be gainsaid that the govern
ment's work has not suffered from the
| grant of the Saturday afternoons in
summer The closing of the depart
ments at l o'clock during the hot months
| has enabled many of the workers to
| take short trips which otherwise would
! be impracticable. But whether they
/ leave town or stay at home the add
tional rest and the recreation that the
half holiday permits have strengthened
them for their weeks work. In most

He might have rested the right he

Whether we look at foreign affairs or
domestic affairs. we find Mr.. Wilson the
overshadowing figure. He has shaped
the course as to Mexico. Mr.. Bryan
can testify to that. His Will was so
strong in the controversy with Germany
that Mr.. Bryan. who had other views, re-
tired from the cabinet. Our leading
diplomatic posts are all occupied by
men of his selection. More than any
other President since Monroe, he has
been his own foreign minister.
In domestic affairs his domination has
been quite as complete. He has been as

The President is supreme at this time,

is no criticism of any important fea-

making the record, which does not reach
the President. The party of Jefferson

Mr.. Marshall and Civil Service.

Vice President Marshall has been
speaking of civil service reform in terms
offensive to its friends and has been
called to account He might, but prob
ably will not. plead the fact that the
reform has never been popular with In
diana politicians of either party.
1t was patronage that caused the row
between Mr. Cleveland and Mr.. Hen
bricks. The former was professed re
former the latter something of spoils-
man. Upon first taking hold in the
~ in the distribution of favors-too
slowly to suit many of the men who had
helped elect him. Mr. Hendricks was
among those urging speed; and when
Mr. Cleveland after deciding to make a
change in the Indianapolis post office,
showed reluctance about accepting Mr..
Hendricks man, the relations between
the Vice President and the President be
came very much strained. On the gen
eraI proposition the Indiana democrats
were all with Mr. Hendricks.
But Mr.. Cleveland had an experience
with another Indiana democrat more IN
teresting, if less grave, than the one
with Mr.. Hendricks. He had appointed
as a member of the civil service commits
sion an attractive old gentleman from
the Wabash country named Judge Ed
gerton. believer in civil service reform
and thoroughly conscientious official.
But in some way the Hoosier commits
sioner lost the confidence of the stricter
school of the reformers, and complaints
were made.
Judge Edgerton. of the old school in
manners. and dress. and address-suave
composed. philosophical and unstampede-
able-took the complaints good natured-
ly, and put his critics to rout and set
the country to laughing with "a little
story"
There was once" he said, "a young
wife preparing for the first visit from
her mother in law. a good lady who had
the reputation of being the best house
keeper in her part of the country. Nat
urally, the daughterin law wanted te
make the most favorable impression pos
sible-to show to the visitor not only
house but all surroundings i'll perfect
order. SO. to make sure OF her aim, she
had the woodpile whitewashed and the
cows tail put up in curlpapers."
"Now,' concluded Judge Edgerton
Pm in favor of civil service reform, but
in reason. 1t is a difficult thing to hap
die in a government like ours; and mer
on the outside are sometimes too i'm
patient with men on the inside trying t.
administer the law. I'm opposed tt

Multiple Bremens.

An Amsterdam dispatch states that
publishing a story to the effect that the
submarine merchantmen Bremen had
been destroyed. 1t was added that the
news of the destruction of the Bremen
was incorrect. Judging from recent
dispatch from London, however, it is
possible that both the unofficial pubilca-
ton and the official declaration respect
ing the Bremen were correct, for 1t Is
now averred that Germany sent forth not
merely one or two, but three Bremens,
and that the third is now confidently ex-
pected to arrive soon at New London.
The first and second Bremens, it is as
serted, were caught by the British on
their way over. but the third, 1t is IN
dicated, escaped the net and made the
open sea- If this is true that two sub
mersible merchantmen have been caught
the record to date is even, two of these
undersea cargo craft having been lost
while two got through-if the third
Bremen actually reaches port. In these
circumstances, in order to net 80 per
cent of efficiency, the third Bremen must
not only make New London. but return
to a German harbor. Meanwhile moth
ing is known as to the program for the
Deutschland. which has now been at
home for nearly two months, having ar
rived on her eastward voyage August %.
Just two months elapsed between her
first westward sailing and her arrival
at home, so that she has had an excep-
tionally long stay in Germany. Evi-
IDENTIFY no attempt is being made to main
tain a sailing schedule for these vessels.
To do so would be an invitation to dis
aster. 1t is, of course. possible that the
Deutschland has sailed once more and
has been caught, or is on the way. 1t
is even possible that her name has been
changed and she is the third Bremen,
though this is not probable.

weekly It is not less efficiently done
than before, but on the contrary IS more
effective. The government alone of the
American employers has failed to apply
this principle It has within recent
years increased the daily working hours,
and it alone has failed to increase the
compensation of its workers. Actually
today the government clerks are worse
off than they were decade or two ago.

the least that can be done in their
behalf.
