CHICAGO TIRED
BUSINESS MAN
is NOW MORE SO
Health ParIors' Are
Closed by States
Attorney.

Chicago, Dec. 30-CUnited Press)
The water was turned of in Chi
cago's fountain of youth today.
Tired business men - modern
Ponce de Leons-found padlocks on
their favorite health parlors"
when they went around to recuper-
ate from the fatiguing task of pull
ing the nation through the indus
trial depression.
Bath houses in Chicago's loop
district whose beautiful girl at
tendants gave the atmosphere bus
mess men appreciate" were closed.
Those who were wont to seek
rest and relaxation at the hands of
beautiful masseuses", as the hand
bill announced, had to go else
where.
THE old boys just loved these
places" said States Attorney
Grove, who started the raids. "They
were ready to throw away their
crutches and canes when they left.
Ponce de Leon should have come to
Chicago"
lO Il uTIy lily.
Grove said the healthatoriums,
most of them beautifully furnished,
must be Stamped out if Chicago is
ever to be purified.
Grove put the lid on the first
aids to longevity on the grounds
they were disorderly places.
Grove said one proprietor of a
bath house made this defense:
THE old men are not our only
patrons, not at all. Many business
and professional men forget or do
not have time to take a shower at
home in the morning. To this class
we cater"
So. thanks to Grove, the old fash
ioned bath tub of Saturday night
popularity is now supreme.

France, Playing European
Diplomacy Game, Is In Bad
With u. S., Laurence Says

important phase of the whole mat
ter, at least so far as European
economic reconstruction is con-
cerned, hinges upon a friendly at
tltude on the part Of the Harding
Hughes administration toward
Europe. The tendency toward iso-
latlon had been slowly overcome by
various moves made by the Harding
administration particularly in be-
ing willing to attend meetings of
the supreme council and in the call
ing of the armament conference
itself. But the impression created
by French tactics here is to cool the
ardor of the administration toward
more conferences with European
powers, particularly France.
Another thing-the supreme
council is meeting at Gamers to
discuss the economic reconstruc-
ton of Europe and there are plans
for the bringing of both Germany
and Russia into the conference
The United States government has
been asked to attend and the drift
here has been toward participation
but the extent of Americas inter-
matter for the American execu-
tive to determine. If the French
plan to spend their money for the
building of submarines, aircraft
and cruisers and intend to main
tain a large standing army, they
can hardly hope for the support of
the American representative at the
supreme council meetings or in the
larger conferences in which Rus
sia and Germany are to participate.
Tactics Are Erratic.
In a nutshell, the attitude of the
French at the Washington confer
ence must be interpreted in the
light of broader events in world
diplomacy. The effect of her OBJ
structive tactics will long be felt
in the Washington administration
in the years imm mediately ahead OF
US. France has given an impress
sion of erratic tactics and discord
which so nearly squares with the
difficulties President Wilson had at
Paris that there is good ground for
believing that the Washington ad-
/ ministratiOn may tend to draw
further and further away from
European questions of an economic
as wei las political character until
the Europeans themselves, particu-
larly France, give evidence of a bet
ter spirit toward the maintenance
OF peace on the continent.
