Eye on Broadway

Broadway feasted last night,
but there was a skeleton at the
feast. The grim rattle of bones
came from a host of Internal
Revenue agents who were loosed
on New York's New Years Eve
to find out whether the wartime
prohibition act was violated.
Daniel l.. Porter, Supervising
Internal Revenue Agent Of the
district, regarded with deep sus-
picion the announcement that
restaurant and hotel men were
going to give away" real drinks.
So the cynical Mr.. Porter sent
out his agents dressed in evening
clothes and accompanied by their
wives Chats what he said
their wivesD to see whether
restaurateurs really were giving
away drinks worth their weight
in gold or were feloniously COL
!ecting the price thereof else
where in the bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Rear Adj
miral Benton c. Decker, commandant of
the naval district at Key West, who de-
ciined a Navy Cross awarded him for
his services as naval attache in Spain
during the war, was recalled from that
post by Secretary of the Navy Daniels
for Decentralization to Ambassador
Joseph f. Willard, the Naval Secretary
revealed to-day
Admiral Decker's letter declining the
Navy Cross said his services in Madrid
"had the effect of keeping Spain from
entering the war against US at the time
of the enemy drive in March. 1913" and
ne charged he accomplished this task
I'm spite of the opposition' of Ambas-
sador Willard. He further declared
that he estimated his services to be
superior to any dreadnought or of any
officer who served on shore.
Secretary Daniels took emphatic issue
with Admiral Decker's charges o-day
He said that while he did not doubt
that Admiral Decker had honestly
sought to serve as his patriotism die
tated, he made the mistake of disagree
ing with the ambassador, who was the
supreme United States representative
at the Court of Spain.
Il do not consider Admiral Decker's
services greater than any dreadnought," >"
Secretary Daniels said 81 do not think
MS services were superior to those of
Admiral Benson or Admiral Sims, who
aoth served on shore. II he wants to
advertise that he is the greatest man
IN the navy, that he controlled the par
lament of Spain and the court of that
tj,.,t \, T
he is making a great mistake.
"The naval attache at any post is al
wa5s under the direct authority of the
ambassador. If he desires to carry out
certain policy and the ambassador op-
poses 1t. he should immediately aban-
don the plan Instead, Admira! Decker
thought he was the ambassador and
the Secretary of State, too, and | was
compelled tc relieve him"
Secretary Daniels said that the
Navy Cross was awarded to Admiral
Decker for his faithfuness as a naval
man, and that it was agreed that this
honor was the highest that he mer-
tied.
'It is pathetic thing that officers
who did their duty as they saw it,"
Secretary Daniels continued, should
disagree With the judgment of the
Navy Department in awarding decora
tons. If was to represent the spirit
of the navy and the spirit of the coun-
try in the awarding of honors the first
to get decorated would be the fellows
who saw the enemy. I would put them
ahead of Admiral Benson and Admiral
Sims. The men who endeavored TO
combat the enemy woula come first.
Then | would take Benson, who was
the most conspicuous man on shore.
Then Sims would come next, and then

The shipment was made by R. s.

Hawaii Was Dry
 100 Years Ago

Honolulu, T. H., March s.--Histor- ians of the Hawaiian Islands assert that an Hawaiian monarchy was the first government in the world to put absolute prohibition into effect.
 Kamehameha, the Great, first king of United Hawaii, in 1795, after hav- ing conquered all the other islands, issued an edict imposing prohibition. Its penalties were drastic. An offen- der was stripped of his property, real and personal, and was driven from his village clad only in loir cloth
 In later years foreign nation' forced liquor on the Hawaiians and it's sale was general in the islands until the great war, when, with the opening of the army training camps in the islands, prohibition went into effect.

It is intend ed also to supply seeds to the schools.
 In the messages to the schools it has been pointed out that economists have held that re-forestation is probably the country's most vital need in making over it's national life.

PASSING OF THE HOBO.

According to the American land survey, the hobo is extinct. Pros perity and prohibition have driven the "weary willies" off the road and you walk miles and miles oi railroad track and never see a foot-sore wanderer,s with stick and knotted handkerchief, never a curl ing spiral of smoke to indicate the spot where stew is being prepared from bits that have been begged ol stolen.
 The "hobo" of this type has been hit hardest by prohibition His chiel aim in life was obtaining liquor With this chief aim gone, he is nc more. He has had responsibility forced upon him and the road knows him no more.
 The land surveys statement doesn'; mean, however, that the idlers have vanished. We have more of these than ever before. In every city there is its quota of do-nothings. Some o1 these live by their wits, some through the generosity of relatives and friends-remitters. Others take a flier at work and then rest tc spend the fruits of their earnings often putting in one-third of montl at labor to two-thirds at idleness. IT the United States there is notice able tendency to work less and te rest or spend the hours in the pur suit of pleasure. In Europe, we arc told, it is even worse. Production is thus restricted and prices ar, high.
 It has been argued, and not with out reason, that the Europeans vii not go to work until they become convinced that the fruits of theil years of toll are safe from such z conflagration as that which consumed their savings from 1914 to 1918. Tn, European, up to 1914, earned very little. Progress was slow. His say ings mounted very, very gradually In one short siX-months late in 1914 all of his life's work crumbled. If h, had not been saving, it would no have happened. And after foul years, he hasn't any guarantee tha it won't happen again.
 In the United States, however there is no such condition. Whil, we are burdened with heavy wal debt, we can pull out. By economy and hard work, things can bt lighted. But we can't do it witt half of the population loafing. Tn, "hobo" has passed but we have nor, idlers than ever before They pro duce nothing, they consume as mucl as anyone else.

Maple Sugar is Opportunity Many
 Farmers Overlook

Washington, March S.-The sugar shortage and the approach of sugar weather" lead department of agri- culture experts to make the state ment that many thousands of Ameri- can farmers throughout region comprising more than score of states, in the eastern and northeast- ern part of the United States, are overlooking opportunities to secure maple sugar and sirup for home use, as we'll as for sale, at very little cost.
 While American commonly think of the maple sugar industry as con fined largely to circumscrihed areas in New Eneland and New York there are. as a matter of fact. many poten- tial sugar bushes" in the region eN- tending as far south as North Caro- lima and Tennessee and westward to Northern Missouri. Iowa and Minne- sota as well as in Washington and Oregon. In a good season tree 15 inches in diameter will yield suffi- cient sap to make from one to six six quarts of sirup which in turn can be concentrated into two to 10 pounds of sugar.
  ment investigators of many groves of sugar naples in North Carolina, one of which is probably larger than any now to be found in New Eng land. The owners, being unaware of the value of the trees from the maple sugar standpoint, had begun cutting them for lumber at an average re- turn of less than S100 tree. Last season, upon suggestion of govern ment experts, these groves were tapped and yielded sirup that sold for S4.00 gallon. Revelation of the potential value of the groves induc- ed the owners to plan more ex- tensive operations for this spring. This years flow of sap is expected by experts to be more satisfactory than last year. The maple sugar and sirup industry is distinctly American and offers good conner cial opportunities, government ex- perts say, for those who engage in it systematically as the demand for both sirup and sugar is far beyond the supply.
