VIENNA, Via London, Feb. IA
Since the first outbreak against Presi.
dent Wilson due to newspaper dis
{. patches which alleged that whole
sale confiscation of German and Aus
TRAN shipping had taken place in the
United States, the press has treated
the crisis with America most tenn
perately.
The change in attitude has been due
to fresh dispatches correcting the for
mer sensational reports. Public inter
est remains keen. however, in the ul-
innate outcome Of the situation, espe.
cially since negotiations between
Washington and Vienna are still prog

with the present situation.

CIGARETrE-SM SMOKING
GIRLS MEANCE ENGLAND

LONDON, May 7. English girls
are so hopelessly addicted to cigar
cites that psychologists fear the ma
ton will have to pay the price in a
new generation OF rickety, weedy
children. The longbearded sages may
be right n what they say but nobody
seems to care. Falling birth-rate and
the fearful national consequences of
infant mortality impress the public
mind far less than two-cent rise on
a popular brand OF cigarettes.
An athletic young woman who
tames American horses for army re-
mounts, claims she can quit smoking
Whenever she wants to. So far it
seems she hasn't wanted to quit for
she outsmokes her own brother who
spends his time in the trenches. When
this girl began waI-work she was
knitting soX for soldiers and it was
not until she began tanning horses
that she fell for the kind the Grand
Duke smokes.
No man who knows enough TO take
his spoon out of his cup will think
OF passing up the ladies when he of
fers cigarettes with after-dinner cof.
fee. He is bound to give them a
chance to turn down the preferred
pill If any of them are non-smokers.
Women smoke as much as men in the
restaurants and in the lounge-rooms
of hotels.
Maybe that would appear to be a
mere foible Of the girls. But it isn't.
Tho there is still some natural timid-
ity about smoking on the street, it ia
nothing unusual to observe number
of girls seated in the subway smok-
lng-cars with cigarettes at their lips.
Before the war it was the polite
thing to ask whether the ladies OBJ
jected if the men smoked. Today a
physician in a munition-maSing area
reports that fourteen girls have
come to him for treatment for tobac-
co heart. His investigation proved
TO him that women and girls of every
class are addicted to the cigarette
habit. Munition girls even smoke
pipes and the prevalence of the to-
bacco.craving is indicated by the fact
that in three weeks women munition
workers paid total fines of $3.50 for
carrying matches on their clothing
while at work in dangerous factories
The physician lectured his patients
on the evil physical effects of smok
ing and reminded them that the ma
ton looks to their kind to become the
