REVERSE THE COMMITTEE VOTE.

THE Legislature should not act in agreement with
i It's committees which yesterday voted to
hamper the Lockwood Committee by refusing it
the powers Of investigation It asks.
Under the powers it possessed last year the com-
nlittee could have "stired things up" II could
have abused the powers it had by going into mat
terS not Immediately concerned with housing
The committee did not do this. II did "stir up"
dangs that needed to be stirred. No Legislature
could have foreSeen what these things would be.
New York wants to know and needs to know
any and every fact which bears on the housing
crisis. The record Of the Lockwood Committee is
good and sufficient guarantee that its investigators
will not abuse the confidence of the Legislature and
viii not make illegimate use of the powers asks
The discretion which the committee has used is
the reason why legislators should not allow packed
committee controlled by bankers to prevent as much
Of an investigation Of banking practice as the Lock-
wood Committee deems necessary
Yesterdays to vote in committee should be
reversed when the matter comes before the whole
membership of the Legislature.

taking cat maps whenever he could get the chance He
would sleep his carriage his way and from his head
quarters would lock the doors of his cabinet and steal
half hours hours sleep whenever he felt the need

Some require less sleep than others. You will
need much after you fifty for the that you

But any age, eight hours of heathful sleep every

HOW FAR WILL GOV. MILLER GET
WITH THIS METHOD

rs there explanation or excuse for the amazing
! attitude Of the Governor Of New York toward
The City of New York;
Following Gov. Millers message on the traction
situation the Mayor of this city, four Borough Pres
idents the President of the Board Of Aldermen the
Corporation Counsel and the Commissioner of
Plant and Structures went to Albany yesterday to
present the dty's point Of Wow regarding the solu-
ton Of certain Of its own traction problems.
All they got from the Governor was a trade
against the loose thinking" of those who stand by
home rule and self-govenment for community
Of s,sooooo, embracing half the population Of the
State.
Gov. Miller processes desire to find a speedy way
out of this city's traction difficulties.
He begins by bullying the city, antagonizing its
government and flouting home rule IN the faces Of
all who support il.
Instead of cooperation, contempt
Instead of aid, tyranny.
Instead of concerted action, the certainty of
dispute, dissenSon and indefinite delay.
How many years will It take to settle traction
troubles and build new subwayS on the line Gov.

The world win not find fault, however provided
the intimacy of the discussion advances understand
ing and agreement regarding momentouS matters

So far tho conference seems only TO have handled
the question Of German disarmament to the extent
OF referring it to the military experts, while Aus
6ias plight is submitted to the study Of Allied rep
Tesentatives who will look into the related economic
conditions Of all Europe.
The real cnlx of the conference.-the question Of
German reparations-has been reserved as the
toughest business Of the session.
/, The problem is 10 make Germany pay In way
tina. will not turn her into desperate and danger
ous bankrupt threatening the economic recovery of
the Iest Of Europe.
! At the same time, there must not be anything
that looks too much like reputation of public de-

Figures and Truth.

To the Editor u The Eemng Worth
II is said figures do not lie. But
our Interpretation OF the figures may
not always be true. Official figures
give 5,567 arrests for intoxication in
1919 and 5,S1S In 1920.
With one possible exception, every
New York paper has taken the view
that this signifies the failure OF Pro
hibitlon. This conclusion betrays
superficial reasoning The Increased
arrests may be proof OF increased sf-
ficiency OF enforcement officers. In
the old license days a drunk was sell
dom arrested unless he was dis.

under the license regime. Allowing
another six months before enforce
ment officials could get organized for
energetic activity, it will be under
stood why there would be more ar
rests for 1920 than 1919. One does not
see as many drunks on the str eets
and the subways as formerly. This
Is very noticeable.
Drunkenness is actually decreasing
although official figures seem to
prove the contrary. The figures may
