INFLUENZA SITUATION,
BETTER THAN LAST YEAR
Health Officer Fowler Cites, Fewer
Calls for Aid; Increase in Num-
Der of Gases Expected.

Although there has been no de-
crease this week in the daily mum Der
OF new influenza cases. only two ap-
peals for assistance have been re-
ceived by the health department.
Health Officer Fowler pointed to
this absence of calls for aid as fur
ther evidence of the fact that the sit
uation has not become serious in
Washington. The situation thus far
when it became necessary to establish
relief stations from which nurses and
physicians were sent to needy fami
lies.
officials of the health department
anticipate gradual increase in the
daily number of new cases for al least
another week.
From midnight until noon today 19S
new cases had been reported. bring
ing the total since January l UP to
approximately $50. From midnight
cases had been reported. but when
the health office closed last night the
total for the day was 226.
II is known that there is a preVa-
lence of grip in the city, but as
this is not reportable disease the
health department cannot determine
the exact condition. That infu-
enza is secondary to this wave OF
grip is indicated by the fact thdt
rhvsicians are calling the health oe
nartment daily to know if they should
report cases that are douoILul oe

Cheap Sports

Deprived of beer and bltters,
by laws they don't admire, some
peevish, sorehead critters kick
like a house afre. They say
with prohibition our country's
bound to reach the depths of
dark demnition, where brindled
bow-wows screech. They should
forget the bitters; 'twould be
more safe and sane to hail with
cheerful twitters the water
wagons reign. Their thirst
they're merely nursing when
they denounce the luck, and
spend the dry days cursing the
drouth that's run amrck. 81 like
a frequent toddy," heard one
sport remark; q used to look
quite gaudy when lit up after

ended | think of other things,

Populi has spoken, and, though
it makes you sore, old Booze's
scepter's broken for ever, ever
more. We see the good sport
reading the writing onSthe wall,
behold him blithely speeding to
some cool waterfall. The cheap
sport, grouchy beggar, says all
his rights are gone, and hunts

BRITISH PREMIER
OEF|ES FRESHMEN
SAYS ENGLAND WILL RESTORE
ORDER BY METHODS
HOWEVER STERN.
insists That 4 Republic Would Not
Satisfy lrlshmsn, az "UIster
Would Have Something
70 Say"

Carnarvon, Wales.-Premier Lloyd
clared that the government intended
to restore order In Ireland by ''meth-
DDS however stern" and proceed with
its home rule bill.
He turned down dominion home
rule, protesting against suggestions
that the government should go far
Their than did Gladstone or AsQuith,
mot because Ireland needs it, not be-
cause 1t is fair to the United King
dom, but because crime has been sue
cessful"
A republic, he insisted, would not
satisfy Irishmen, as ulster would
have something to say"
Nothing In the past, he continued,
would justify present conditions In
Ireland.
The premier declared "a real muir
der gang is dominating Ireland, max
ing 1t impossible for reasonable men
to come together to consider the best
way to govern the country. 1T is es'
sential," he went on, "in the interest OF
Ireland that the gang should be broken
up, and unless / am mistaken we shall
do it. But side by side with that We
must proceed with measures for self
government in Ireland"
He declared that if, as was con
tended, there was war in Ireland, then
the war must be waged by both sides
But when policemen were shot In the
back by Sim Feiners, he said, 1t was
not war, but murder"
"We must therefore restore order
even by stern measures" he asserted
because we cannot permit the coun
try to fall into complete anarchy"
He said the murderous gang which
now tyrannizes Ireland must be broken
and the government must proceed with
measure for complete self-govern
ment of the country.
