Protest Made Against Use
Of Tobacco in Passenger
Coaches as Being Harmful

To the Editor of the Telegraph:
A lady returning to. Harrisburg
from Philadelphia two days ago,
entered a day coach and found
seat, which was soon shared by
gentleman of the old school. and
incidentally, a member of our state
Legislature. A party of younger,
men, care-free as school boys. also
entered the same car, and imme-
diately lighted their cigars, soon
putting away in clouds of tobacco
smoke that resembled smoking
cars atmosphere. One lady after
another In the car began coughing,
until the male escort of one OF them
went forward to protest to the con-
ductor regarding the unusual annoy
ance. When he returned. he quietly
| told the smokers that he had been
given permission by the conductor
to tell them that there was spe-
cial car provided for smokers at the
rear of the train. Evidently the
rollicking crowd preferred remain.
ing where they were, possibly they
objected to segregation, they good
naturedly threw away their cigars,
the air cleared, and the incident was
closed.
But was it closed? The lady re-
lating this incident was told by the
courtly legislator beside her that the
men who violated the official nouce
of the railroad company against
SIN oking in that car, were none other
than the very men who make the
laws of our state. Had it not nap
u rod -hl0nIpd
man in that car to object, the vio-
lation of the company's order would
have continued. What guarantee
have we that our state legislators
are not going to act again as though
the cars they occupy are chartered
for their use? Down near Baltimore
there is at least one railroad line
where smoking is tolerated in al
the cars. Are we in pennsylvania
to be forced to tolerate the same un-
healthful, annoying conditionsE II
our laws makers set the example
and nothing is said about the intru-
sion on the rights of the nonsmoking
publiR will this infringement cease
1t is high time that some protest
were uttered. lest smoking every
where become common practlce'
Medical science frowns down upon
the tobacco habit more and more
and its baleful influence on the hu-
man system extends even TO inhahng
the fumes. Why. then. should we
be forced TO tolerate the constant
jeopardy of our health, in order that
a few selfish human beings may es- i
cape segregation? Would that every
jolly legislator in the bunch that
owned" the car which several wo-
men, who had paid full fare were
forced to occupy knew the story, OF
the nervous wreck who entered
doctors office in search of relief.
"You snoke?" asked the NJ. ID.
Certainly" replied the patient "ev-
erybody does" Let me show you
something" and the doctor took
ieech from bottle, and fastened
it on his patients bare arm. After
filling with blood. the leech fell on
dead. What caused it TO dieE'
asked the awe-struck invalid. The
presence of tobacco in your blood,
said the man of science. WheW!
that's sort of gruesome,' replied the

DANIELS IN
Of USING HUN BoAy
Said to Advocate Using Them to
Police World Waters

Washington, Feb. 25.-Secretary OF
The Navy Daniels is understood to be-
ieve that the surrendered German
warships should be turned over to the
custody Of the League of Nations to
be used by it as part of the interna-
tional police force.
Mr.. Daniels declines to comment on
the reported British suggestion that
the German ships be scrapped so as
to avoid "heartburns'' among the ma
tons desiring u share Of them. But
naval circles cognizant of the secre-
tarys policy maintain that Mr.. Daniels
hopes to see the German ships used
in such manner as to strengthen the
naval forces which he believes ulti-
mately may equal Britain's sea
strength.
Naval officers here do not believe
the British admiralty seriously con-
templates advocating the sinking of
the German ships, and they are in
clned to regard the reports as eman-
ating from diplomatic rather than
naval circles abroad.
DiplomaticalIy, it is pointed out,
the suggestion of doing away with
the German navy altogether puts
Britain on record as not desiring to
increase naval ornaments at a time
when the League of Nations cOnstitu-
ton proposes limitation of armament
to the limit of national safety
This policy on the part of British
diplomats makes Britain's attitude
admittedly stand out in contrast to
the plan of Mr. Daniels in advocating
the building Of q record breaking
naval increase for America as part
of the general disarmament project.
