Ci,icagO's Festival Tame;
Ban on s'Hip' Liquor
Is Relaxed Too Late
Special Correspondence


CHICAGO, Dec. Chicago's greet
ing to the New Year was not without
alcoholic trimmings, thanks to an
eleventh hour ruling favorable to Chip
liquor.
At s o'clock tonight the CITY was
ready for its first dry inaugural of a
new year. Captain Morgan Collins, of
the Central Detail, sent $50 uniforme d
and plain clothes men into the loon
to search and seize" to the limit, but
hotels and clubs generally were playing
safe and made no plans for wet cele-
bratlon: Then came the ruling. 1t
provided that names and addresses
should be taken for Preference" but
contained no threat of seizure or arrest
The news spread about the city
rapidly, but in spite of this, the cele.
oratlon was not as comprehensive and
extended as in former years. Guests
brought their drinks to the hotels and
cafes IN all manner of receptacles, and
at the large hotels last-minute changes
afforded all that could be desired in the
way OF novelties and truly old fashioned
New Years greetings.
With New Years celebrations over
the big hotels have enormous surplus
supplies of liquor on hand. with nc
means of disposing of it. The Sherman
management has hit upon the idea OF
declaring a dividend in liquor to the
stockho lders. The hotel has about 3 DOC
cases on hand.

auditorium was darkened, and as mid
night sounded a cross of light flashed

Rev. John Haynes Holmes and his con-
gregation kept their overcoats on. The
edifice was illuminated by candles stuck
in their own grease in the debris.
Fifteen hundred persons attended a
midnight service in the Cathedral of St.
John the Divine, which ended with a
silent prayer moment before the
chimes Of the churches rang. Bishop
Charles Sumner Burch and the Rev.

New York Divorces
Increase 5OPer Cent
Compared to 1918
Actions Held Over Until
Husbands Returned From
Service Said Partly to
Account for Situation

Statistics of the. County Clerks Of
flee at the close of business for the year
ended yesterday showed the number of
divorce cases in Manhattan for 1919 ex-
ceeded those of 1913 by more than so
per cent. In 1919 the "little black
hook" kept by Fred Klinker, clerk in
the Office of County Clerk Schneider,
showed total Of 1885, as against $50
in 1913. Marriage in New York County.
according to City CLERK Scully, in
creased II per cent in 1919.
Various explanations were made for
the alarming increase in the number of
divorce actions brought. The high
cost of living, which was one of the
most popular of the solutions advanced.
is dlsrcgarded, as it is considered more
expensive, with alimony and counsel
Tees, to be divorced than to be mar
ried.
Another explanation advanced was
the independence of wives. who. being
able to earn a fair livelihood, feel thev
can afford to rid themselves Of unfaith-
full husbands.
The end Of the war is given as an
'1her explanation OF the increased di-
vorce figures. In support of this con-
tention it is argued that many wives
would have sued in 1918 but for the
fact that their husbands were in the
military service and could not be
served with papers or because the
wives, out of a spirit of patriotism,
did not care to bring actions while
their husbands were in the service.
The moral side of life is not looked
upon as strongly as formerly, is the
explanation Of Justice Samuel Green
baum, of the Supreme Court There
Is great deal Of materialism in the
world at present" said Justice Green
baum. "The home lacks sanctity.
There is a tendency of young folks to
escape from the ties that bind them.
They call that freedom
Justice Davis, Of the Supreme Court,
said: "The first step in loosening the
marriage ties is the failure to observe
religious obligations The chaos Gre
atnd by the WIT nleo has something to
DO with present conditions. 1t is the
usual sequence of an age Of luxury.
The condition is not permanent. 1t
Will be noticed that the mose divorces
are not among the well-to- do, but
sometimes among the poor"

White House Omits Usual
Watch Party; Lansing,
Baker and Daniels Will
Hold Receptions To-day
Revelers Fill the Hotels
Marshall Hopes for Greater
Charity in 1920 and Lane
Wants a s'Lincoln Year,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Washing-
ton welcomed the new year tonight
without any public or semi-public func-
tions. but with the usual church and
home watch parties and street celebra-
tons.
Dinner dances at the hotels apparent
ny were more popular than ever. The
advent OF national prohibition had no
new effect, for this was the third New
Year celebration since the ban was
placed on the sale of liquor in the Dis
trlct OF Columbia. Some members of
hotel parties drought their own" and
diplomatic Row" continued to eniov
ITS immunity from prohibition restric-
tons
Because of President Wilson's con-
dltlon there was no formal watch party
at the White House, and New Years
Day Will be observed quietly there.
Omcial functions tomorrow, however.
stll include a luncheon for the diplo-
matte corps by the Secretary of State
ceptlon by the Secretary of the Navy
and Mrs. Daniels and a reception by
the Secretary of War and Mrs. Baker
and the Assistant Secretary of War
and Mrs. Crowell at the Assistant Sec
retary's home.
New Years messages to the nation
were issued tonight by Vice President
Marshall and some members of the
CaDinet. Mr.. Marshall said:
Men are agonizing over the passion
and prejudice, both real and seeming
injustice and inequality, and the black,
ness of despair would settle over orr
land were it not that faith. hone and
charity still abide-faith that a deeper
knowledge of the wisdom of our insti-
buttons will be impaired to every son
and daughter of the Republic, hope that
more and more all men will turn from
'he contemplation Of their rights to a
consideration of their duties, and char
lty Tor all who are not vicious, but who.
through stress of circumstance, have
become embittered.
God of our fathers, take from us. if
Thou wilt, material prosperity and ma.
tlonal glory, but give us. individually
and collectively, for all the years to
come, faith. hope and charity"
Secretary Lane said:
II wish that 1920 may be a Lin
coin year, a Lincoln year in which our
people will learn to look at things
through Lincoln's eyes-those kind,
wise, steadfast, honest eycs-in which
there was neither malice nor envy. but
great sympathy in noble common
sense: Why can't we make this 1920 a
Lincoln year,"

Con'pers Pledges Labor
To Do Its Share in 1920
Declares Workers Place Duty rs
Citizens First and Seek Only
an EQu0L Chance for AL

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81 (By The AS
soclated Press). - Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, in New Year statement
pledged Americas workers to do their
full share in working out the coun-
try's problems of 1920. Mr.. Gompers
said:
"America's workers stand ready in
the new year as in the past to do
their full duty rs American citizens.
We have always placed our obligations
AS citizens above all else. AS citizens
we are true to the American ideal Of
equal opportunity for all.
I'm the past we have found it neces-
sary to fight for that ideal against
agencies that sought to establish spe-
cial privilege. Those fights have not
been in defense of class advantages,
but to assure to wage earners the
rights and opportunities that all should
possess. Our struggles may have
brought discomfort to others, but they
prevented greater evil--deterioration
of the virility Of part Of the nation.
THE great struggle of labor in the
past has been to assure to workers in
their industrial relations the rights of
free citizens. We have fought to give
the ideal of America dominating in
auence in shops and factories. Our
militant struggle has won general
recognition for our demands. But our
work is not all militant. We are in a
position to contribute to the improve
mcnt of production processes and
organization.
"The immediate problem of the world
is to develop production organiza-
ton that will benefit directly those
who are the real producers, and will
also serve the needs of starving ma

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-There was
no special observance of New Years

Parole Board and Three
Court Places Are Pre-
sented to Brooklyn Men

Mayor Hylan dispensed a few ap-
pointments to some of his faithful fol-
lowers yesterday, promised more to
others and then issued formal type
written statement entitled "New Years
Greetings" addressed "To the People
of the City of New York"
CAS- we are about to enter on the
second half of this administration" be-
gan the Mayors greeting, II thought
it would not be out of place for me to
express at the beginning of the new
year my sincere appreciation of the con-
tidence which the people have reposed
IN this administration during the first
two years of our incumbency."
Republicans Are Ignored
There was no word of greeting to
the two Republicans, Majors F. H. La
Guardia and Henry II. Curran. who will
assume their duties as members of
the Board of Estimate to-day as result
of the defeat of two members Of the
Hylan administration at the polls eight
weeks ago. Major Curran already has
been sworn in as President of Manhat-
tan Borough. Major La Guardia will
be sworn in as President of the Board
of Aldermen to-day at his office at
the City Hall by another Republican
who defeated a Tammany candidate
this fall, Supreme Court Justice elect
Philip J. McCook.
A sentimental reason actuated Major
La Guardia in waiting until to-day to
be sworn in. He wanted his old friend
Major McCook, to administer the oath
of office, as it was Major McCook who
gave to La Guardia his start in poll
tics thirteen years ago when he re-
turned from a berth in an Anne rican
consulate in Italy. Then, too, both are
veterans of the war.
La Guardia Laughs at Slight
Major La Guardia laughed when
asked to comment on the action of the
Hylan Board of Estimate in barring
him and Major Curran from all chair
manships on the Board of Estimate.
ut is typical administrative density,
with which the people of this city are
only too familiar" said Major La
Guardia. "They are mistaken if they
think this will blind our eyes. for we

of Aldermen, Robert L. Moran, has not
yet been placed. He is said to be n
candidate to succeed Bestfam De n
Cruger as chairman of the parole
board at $500 year.
One of the plums handed out by the
Mayor yesterday was membership on
the commission at $500 a year. 1t
went to Michael Fogarty, boiler
manufacturer of Greenpoint. who was
defeated for Congress a year ago by
Representative John MacCrate. Com
missioner Fogarty is a member of the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers, the Engineers Club and
was delegate to the 1915 state con-
stitutional convention.
