ADVISES LICENSE CARD
FOR LIQUOR DRTNKER
David Townsend Tells City Busi-
ness Club How to Place Re-
sponsibility Where 1t
Belongs

Every imbiber Of intoxicating drinks
should be licensed as such, and should be
required by law TO exhibit his license TO
the bartender when he goes into saloon
for n drink of liquor In case the licensee
abuses his drinking privilege, his license
should be revoked Immediately.
This new and novel handling OF the
liquor problem was advanced by David
Townsend, a consulting engineer, today in
an address at the weekly luncheon Of the
City Business Club at the Hotel Adelphia.
His subject was Personal Responsibility
Every man who drinks liquor" said
Mr. Townsend SHOULD he licensed. Such
licenses should be issued at City Hall the
same as dog licenses, or any other KIND
of licenses When the licensee walks into
saloon for his beer, his whisky, gin rickey,
wine or any other kind of intoxicant. he
should he required by the bartender TO show
his drinking card before drinks are served.
Abuse of the drinking privilege should mean
immediate cancellation Of licenses,
Licensing Of drinkers I am confident,
would do away with the treating evil the
Turing Of young girls into the back rooms
of cafes and other abuses now allied with
the rum traffic ! am certain that the liquor
interests would approve Of the licensing of
drinkers for such system would put the
responsibility Of good conduct right up to
the drnker"
In dealing with the vice problem Mr.
Townsend urged that houses rented for
such purposes should have the names OF
the owners placed in ConspicioSs places on
the outside.
These owners" he said. should be held
! personally responsible and not permitted
| to escape the law by hiding behind the old
agent-subterfuge. They should be made re.
! sponsibc for the actions of these agents IT

PIE BAKER PROVES
REAL FIRE HEROINE
Mrs. McGuigan Leaves Her Oven
to Rescue Aged Woman and
Two Babies From Flames

There is wide gap between pie-baker
and heroine, but II was bridgcd easily to-
day by Mrs. Thomas McGuigan. 1911 North
Fifty.flrst street when she saw flames shoot
ing from the third story Of the home Of
Martin Phillip. a member OF the fire de-
partment. at 1917 North Fifty-nrst street.
Abandoning four pies to their fate in
very hot oven, this resourCeful housewife
darted out of the house and three seconds
later was fighting her way to the third
floor Of the Phillip home. She found Mrs.
Ida Smell, as years old, lying on the floor
Of a front room, partly overcome by smoke
Selling the old woman under the arms, Mrs.
McGuigan half carried and half dragged
her to the street.
Childish screams and walls warned Mrs.
McGuigan that her work was not finished.
She dashed to the second floor and a min
ute later appeared with baby under each
arm. She went back again and brought
down Elizabeth Phillip, nine months old.
Then, without waiting for congratulations
or cheers from the "neighbor bleachers,
Mrs. McGuigan went back TO her pies, and
was much relieved to find they had not
burned The fire was caused by the ex-
| ploson of an oil stove Several hundred
dollars in bills which Mrs. Smell left on a
dresser was burned

SENTENCED TO DIE

HARTFORD, Conn, July 2O.-"My
sister certainly can't be in her right
mind, especially after what has hap

Mrs. Duggan, who is a sister OF

caring for the convicted poisoner's
nineteen-year-old daughter, Mary
Archer, who thinks she has scarcely

No Application Yet.

Edward J. Prindle of Brimheld,
Mass, in a letter protesting against

years ago in Litchfield, Conn.
AT that time" says Mr.. Prindle,
"the opinion was openly expressed
by those who knew her better than l
did that mentally she was not well
balanced.
Cases of DeEeneraey.
an her family were several cases
of mental degeneracy, though I have
forgotten the cause then given. I
am actuated by no mawkish sentl-
mentality and Mrs. Gilligan may be
guilty OF a score OF murders, but II
she is the victim of moral degeneracy
or actual insanity the State OF Con-
necticut will not be justified In carry
ing the sentence into effect
las for Mrs. Gilligan's given age OF
forty-four years, I believe she is
nearly nifty years old. and am sure
that II her counsel Will look into her
family history a Communication of the
death sentence will be easily Sc
cured"
