kind, the city is drifting back Perhaps this is
best after all. Any possible convenience which
might come from daylight saving to some would
be more than offset by Inconvenience to others.
There is no profit in catering to the advantage Of
40 per cent of the population at the expense
of the remaining 70 per cent. Benefits OF the
system are open to debate. On the whole it seems
the consensus of opinion that sane well regulated
daylight saving would benefit the health of most
of the people. But if this cannot be had once
let have the old system at once. End the con-
fusion Stop trying to make business better for

Chinese Laundries.
e Editor. The Washington Herald:

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
While soliciting laundry / often
meet with the reply: Il give my
laundry to the Chinaman." It seems
to be a mark of distinction now-a-
days TO give ones laundry 20 the
Chinaman.
Almost Invariably the person So
licited. will admit that they give
their collars to the Chinaman to
save a penny. the "Chink" being 1
cent cheaper than the average
steam laundry.
Now, ! am not excessively pa
triotic. but many OF the solicitors
going around the city are former
service men (myself included) and
although one can appreciate being
denied a bonus they cannot under
stand or sympathize with the
housewife who in time OF war
waved a flag (and who had or lost
sons in the European conflict) and
now patronize the Mongolian who
did not raise a hand to protect
their beloved democracy"
Let them 60 to the Chinese laun-
dries when the next war breaks
out. and l hope they will cease
being hypocrites by shedding croco-
die tears DER graves OF unknown
soldiers, while the living ones may
go to hell. 1 am not done yet, kind
reader. The "Chink" spits on the
collars and gives you a choice COL
lection Of germs which you present
TO your children.
Now that the Germans have been
beaten many former service men
are denied a living for the sake of
germs plus one penny.

SMUCCLERS PROF|TINC
BY TAKING ENGLISH
CLOTH TO GERMANY
(Ry Associated Press)

BERLIN. Jan. iS.-Smugglers are
making immense profits by bringing
English cloth for mems suits past the
customs line to the tailors of Berlin.
Their illicit earnings are made pos
sible by the high German import
duties on that class of material.
The tailoring establishments are WIS.,
tied almost daily by sailors or other
ship employees with huge rolls of Eng
fish tweeds and other fabrics, in one
suit pieces, which they have succeeded
in purchasing at English ports and
bringing in duty free. One of these
smugglers, a New York man, SAID
some English cloth dealers are max
ing a regular business of supplying
the smuggling trade.
The cloth is sold at one-fourth to
one-fifth the price it would cost if
the import duty was paid. Tailors are
quick to purchase the fabrics. The
smugglers also visit foreigners and
offer their wares for sale.
The smugglers go quite openly about
their business. They may be seen
walking the streets with big bundles
on their backs. A few of the more
venturesome have even offered the
goods for sale on the sidewalks, where
they find ready takers.
A French sailor who had been SNUG
Cling for several months, said he was
going to retire from the game" hav-
ing made enough money to open a
shop of his own in Paris.
