Hansen is right when he says the
only satisfactory solution of the red
light district is in better economic
conditions. That is no reason, how
ever, for allowing a district There
is no doubt that there is even more
vice in the better parts of the city
when the city is open than now.
There is always some.
The district only gives it a nucleus
from which it reaches out more sub

The law should be dead against all

Why are the drinking French and
Germans so efficient for themselves?
Ii prohibition would make thieves
honest, why don't it do so to the ones
that are sent to the penitentiaTies.
They are dry enough there, but when
they get out they are still thieves as
they went in. If non-drinkng made
men poor, why the locker in the rich
mans club? If dry communities
were wiser, stronger or richer, why
New York? Why London? Why
Berlin?

REPLY TO WELLS. - The first
seven paragraphs by Geo. V. Wells
are almost incompatible in clearness
and Illumination.
They constitute the best statement
against absolute liberty and for
equal freedom yet printed in The
Day Book.
His eighth paragraph, however,
does not give a valid answer to the
question 1 would ask: What is the
true function of governments?"
Individuals can do anything by
extensive voluntary cooperation
that governments do, except organ
izing and maintaining that very
foundation evil of government mo-,
nopoly.
Let Mr.. Wells name a single, IN
matchable monopoly under freedom
that is the basis of any great social
evil.
The land monopoly, the money
monopoly, the monopoly of tools
and machinery, the monopoly of
commercial franchises, etc., are all
artificial governmental monopoies.
No government, no monopoly

PETR0GRAD HONORS
 MOST FAMOUS EXlL. !:
Grandmother of the Rev0lu- ton" Reaches Capital-FOrty Four Years of Her Life Spent in Siberia.

Petrograd, April Il, via London, April 13.-The arrival in Petrograd today of Madame Catherine Fresh kovskaya was the occasion of a dra- matic gathering of veterans of the former revolutionary and terrorist times to give her an enthusiastic and emotional welcome.
 All Petrograd, in fact, turned out to acclaim the grandmother of the revolution," on her homecoming from Siberia, where she had spent A of her 73 years in exile.
 A vast crowd, waving red flags and singing the "Marseillaise" extended down the west end of the Nevsky Prospect as far as the Nikolaievsk railway station. When the Associat- ed Press correspondent arrived he found the crowd trying to storm the station, to which were admitted only veteran nihilists and deputation from the ministry of justice, headed by Minister of Justice Kerensky, to- gcther with delegations of welcome from Petrograd, Moscow and Dorpat universities and high schools.
 At the suggestion of M. Kerensky the reception committee adopted a plan unique in Russian history for the welcoming of Madame Breshkov- skaya-a plan symbolizing Russia s transition from autocracy to demo- cracy. The welcome took place in the gorgeous suite in the railway station called the imperial reception rooms, which under the old regime was used only for the reception of royal personages. The large draw ing room in this suite which had been the scene of meetings of the world s most powerful monarchs was now the gathering place of the worlds most extreme democrats, republicans and socialists. Around the room were scores of baskets and wreaths of flowers, the scarlet tulip predominant ing a flower which bids fair to be- come the floral emblem of the new Russia. The flowers bore various in- scriptions, such as ito our dear grand mother" ito Russia's martyr hero inc"

 Chairman Gore said he hoped to get resolution through the Senate Uon- day permitting his committee to hold hearings generally on questions of food supply.

 When the House adjourned tonight general debate had closed and the Ladders had agreed to begin discus .;or of amendments under the five n,;,ute rule, at II o'clock tomorrow morning. The vote probably will be taken early in the afternoon.
 Amendments approved today by Secretary McAdoo to limit specifically distribution of the proposed S3,0OO,- OOO foreign loan which the bill would authorize to countries actually at war with Germany and only during hos tilities will be added to the measure. Representative Linroot of Wisconsin and others insisted today that with out these limitations the secretary of the treasury might make loans to European noutrals immediately or continue loans to other countries after the close of the war. Aramers of the bill insisted that such a course never would be considered, but they finally agreed to insert the specific prohibit tions.
 Absence of partisan spirit marked the debate. Democratic Leader Kit chin and Representative Fordney of Michigan, who for years have battled from opposite sides of the House on financial questions, were the principal supporters of the measure. Efforts to inject political discussions into the debate and Swerve the leaders off on the tariff and other issues were un- availing
