New York City
Day By Day
By o. o. McIntyrs.

NEW YORK. Aug. 15.-The noe
turnal haven Of the carefree fem
mine types who used to frequent
the cafes is now the bachelor apart
ment. Men who used to live hard
and dangerously but openly now
hide their orgies In buildings of
doubtful repute. i
They club together and rent apart
ments "for bachelors only" Tight
fpped West Indian servants act as
runners from the delicatessen shops
and drug stores nearby. Phono-
graphs supplant the jazz orchestras
and breakfasts are served at day
light.
Three bobbed haired girls, all un-
Ger 20. were taken away from one
bachelor apartment building on the
West Side last week in an alcoholic,
haze. They said they had dropped
into the apartment after the thea
ter. They were there three days.
1t Is proving an easy path for
the libertine. Disreputable land
lords fnd that by converting build
!ngs into bachelor apartments"
where no questions are asked. they
can more than triple. their rental
incomes.
The result Is that many respect
able neighborhods have been COM
pletely demoralized and valuable
property has -slumped in value
Flappers who formerly thought 1t
wicked to drink a cocktail before
dinner now guzzle synthetic gin
and defer their dinner until the
breakfast hour.
In the West Seventies one night
recently a roundsman happe led to
look into a court yard. He saw a
parade of white robed figures COM
Ing down fire escape. Investfga-
tion proved that a group of pajama
clad men and women were playing
Follow the Leader" and the leader
had climbed out the window and
down the fire escape. The frolic
had followed bachelor apartment
dinner at which everything was
served save food.
They looked rather eerie and in
teresting under the light of the
lambent moon rays. but somewhat
abashed when they were paraded
before the Night Court magistrate.

Seventh street where the fine old
komes that spread out from the
elder Cornelius Vanderbilt mansion
at the entrance Of Central Park
have been converted into elegant
shops catering to milady. They are
mostly gown. hat, and fur shops
with a sprinkling of massage and
beauty parlors. They try to get
away from the usual run of trade
names. For instance, some Of the
gown shops are called: The Yellow
Aster," The orchid" The Pink

The Farmers Bedroom.

S6THERE is no bad ali, in the country" cynical
i doctors used to say. THE farmers keep
n all shut up in their bedrooms"
Ten years ago this was an accurate expression
OF conditions. The country dweller resisted inno-
vations in sanitation he resisted the wies of
Beelzebub He talked explosively of Bunker. Hill
and Yorktown when laws were enacted forcing him
to whitewash his cow stable Suggestions that
sewage in his well gave his family typhoid fever

~d the prohibition amendment. AS for fresh air
IN bedrooms-those who talked about it were inf
dels, atheists and scoundrels
All this has changed, according to the Inter-
national Health Board of the Rockefeller Founda-
ton Propaganda which made its way painfully at
hrst through the blue hills and white villages now
not only has gained great headway but has been
transformed into, action. The farmer has drained

The country remains the ideal breeding place for
some contagious diseases. Typhoid fever is

this scourge was o6 per 100000 population while
IN the cities il only was SIS. The states which

Timely Opinions
on World Topics

Arthur s. Draper. London cor
une, recently expressed an interest
ing view of European press condi-
tions. Discussing the subject.
Government and the Press" at a
round table conference on interna-
tional news at the Institute of Poll
tics at Williams College, Draper
said in part:
THE line of demarcatisn be-
tween propaganda and legitimate
publicity by governments is diff
cult to draw.
Government publicity is an ex-
cellent thing. Government propa- :
ganda is regarded with the great
est suspicion. No European con-
ference is complete today without
each country giving much thought
to its propaganda or publicity rep
resentatives, and the result is that
the American correspondent is COM
PEELED to weigh each bit of infor-
nation with the greatest care. As
international affairs are conducted
today no nation can get along with
out Its publicity representative.
There are facts that support the
cnarge that some European papers,
particularly on the continent. ac-
cept government subsidies and even
receive money from the embassies
OF Foreign powers. sell their edi-
torial columns and manufactures
pubic opinion at so much an
article. In defense it ia argued
that otherwise some of them, he
cause or the small returns from ad-
vertising and circulation, would NOT

Concerning the attempts IN con-
troll the press in England ,hro,,,
the granting of honors to naw.na
said: "per
An unprejudiced observer would
say that they were more deserved
tnah those conferred on MANY
others outside of the journalistic
profession" ''e
Draper said that. in his opinion.
tnefe was no question that "everv
titled English editor Of the cIas.
would deny strenuously that hi.
professional freedom was restr;ct.

OF obligation to the eovernusnt
through his acceptance of an
honor. Many newspapers who's.

ment of the system under which
their honors were conferred. To

majority would approve of most ~
the journalists selected" -
Draper quoted H. W. Massinv
ham, the English editor, STATING
that he was inclined ito agree that
government control of the press IL
impossible.
Our press has been steadily -o-
ing back. and Europe has been ad-
vancing," he said. That in one
direct result Of the war. We were
swamped by propaganda during the
war. and were told 1t was absolute.
ly essential to the winning of, the
war. II what we said in our propa-
ganda was true. then the Germans
were lying; IL they told the truth,
then we were lying. That system
left . deep mark on the British
press."

Replies to Hortensius.
o the Editor. The Washington Herald:

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Hortensius wrote an excellent arti-
Gle showing that he was a man OF
consecutive reasoning. but 1t is. also
apparent that he writes from the
standpoint of yesterday and not OF
today or tomorrow.
As . member. Of the American
Legion he has perhps heard of the
song Of the privates: ITO hell with
all the oficers,"
He is probably conversant with the
of the flying machine and
reads the doom of the army and navy
officers in the Flying Machine and
T. N. T.
He has no doubt heard Of the ex-
periments Of then naval torpedo squad
ron sinking the German warship with
a single bomb. and realised the doom
of the graduate of Annapolis and
West Point who. like the Indian. are
going the way Of the setting sun.
