New York and London

lie the Editor Of The Tribune:
S'r; The figures recently published
relative to the size and population Of
New York and London give the radius
Of the British capitals "Metropolitan
and City Police District" as nineteen
miles, and comparison is made with a
like area embracing this city and ada
cent territory. using City Hall as a
center.
The assumption IS undoubtedly o.
roncous and the comparison conse-
Quentiy tallacious.
The actual area of police London is
6"3 square miles. A circle Of nineteen
miles radius drawn around City Hall
you'd embrace an area of 1,i34 square
miles, but similar circle around Char
ing Cross would leave AL square miles
outside the borders of police London,
with the population Of several impor-
tant suburbs unconsidered.
On r previous occasion attention
was directed to tho fact that the
County Of London-which, like the
County Of New York. or Borough OF
Manhattan, has declined in population
as commerce has encroached upon old
residential sections-is no larger in
area than the Borough OF Queens. A
comparison, therefore, with the aggre-
gate Of all FIVE boroughs or counties of
New York is manifestly unfair. In
deed, radical differences in topographv
(as to water area, etc. and forms Of
local government render any just com
parison between the two cities extrcme-
ly difficult if not impossible.
Incidentally, it is Of interest TO roto
that according to Whitaker's Almanac
for 1922 the Getty" Of London, under
the Jurisdiction Of the Lord Mayor and
Aldermen, had in 1921 q population of
only 1906, while the proposed "Lon-
don Health Area" had in the same
year 9,61o,234 inhabitants. The Psrt
Of London. this publication states, is
seventy miles in length.

Work for H..lgarian Girls

OK all the industrial and economic
measures adopted by European
countries since the war one of the
most remarkable is the Bulgarian
law for the compulsory labor Of
girls and young women. which goes
into effect to-day.
This law requires ali able bodied
Bulgarian girls from sixteen TO thir-
ty years Of age inclusive to engage
in some useful labor, regardless of
their pecuniary means or social sta
tus-rich and poor alike. For the
younger ones within these ages only
four months work yearly is re-
qured, TO be performed in the i'm
mediate vicinity of their homes or.
on request, anywhere within the
community where their families re-
side. Mahometan girls are to do
the work within their own homes.
None are required to engage in work
which viii prevent them from taking
their meals and sleeping al home.
The tasks assigned are emu
mersted in seven categories, to wit:
Cooking, washing and ironing and
other household duties; learning
public and private hygiene, the care
OF the sick and the avoidance of
communicable diseases; sewing.
weaving, embroidery, dressmaking
and bookbinding; telegraphy, tel
ephonc operation, typewriting and
bookkeeping; horticulture and gar
dening; the preserving Of fruits,
vegetables and other food products;
dairying, forestry, poultry raising
and the culture of silk, honey and
grapes.

compulsory labor and training are

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Apart from the propriety OF
the Tenement House Commissioner r S
advising corporate mortgage lenders
having mortgages on reconverted
residence studio apartments as TO the
wisdom Of such loans, he uninten.ion-
ally shows up the absurdities Of the
tenement house law.
The tenement house law says that
any building with three or more
families living Independently Of each
other and doing their own cooking"
comes under the law,
A fivc-story building with ten
families of fifty persons not living in
dependently of one another. but bunked
in together and having common
kitchen, does not come under the tenc-
mert house law
A hve story private residence or
rooming house, with thirty to fifty oc-
cupants, does rot come under tho tcne-
ment house law.
A iiyc-story rcconverted residence
studio apartment Of two rooms each,
with man and his wife in each apart
ment, where there are no portable
electric hot plates and where catch
as-catch-can" cooking can be done, does
not come under the tenement house

Frightened Pennsy

In a report to the trustees Of the
University Of Pennsylvania the d.
rectors of the institutions alumni
association shout for bars against
women students. They declare
that the university has largely
lost It's quality Of mascuinity' and
that it is time to dispatch a rescue
party.
Twenty-Five years ago the CO.
education scare ragged violently.
But that which aroused fear was
that the girls would be corrupted
by the boys, not the reverse. Great
was the sohcitudo for keeping the
bloom on the face Of The peach.
Classroom contact with the rude
and unrefned male was deemed ia
tally roughening. But the new
scare relates TO what is happening
to the boys. Their viriIity is going
Driven to a corner, crowded into
remote places and no mercy shown
to them, they bleat pitifully.
Mark Twain once remarked that
every one complained Of the
weather, bat no one did anything
about it. Similarly there is agree
ment that the girls increase in
awfulness, but they are so far
proof against reform. Frightened
Pcnnsies see nothing to do but to
run and run fast. The advice is
something that suggests that ther,

present system were stopped nothing
would prevent graduates from sending
back information unoticiaNr. Tn
would be sure to breed nsanGers aaa-
ing and suspicion.
TO those VINO are behind the move
ment for a new policy in college ports
the opposition to these suggestions has
not been disappointment. Fcr pub-
lie opinion at Harvard has been well
disposed to the most important two
proposals, which I shall row discuss.
The average Harvard student (this
includes men who participate in ath-
letics) feels that there is something
wrong with college sports He IS forced
TO cut short his summer vacation by
three weeks TO return Tor early fail
football practice. And what does he
do when he gets back to Cambridge =?
The fun OF football is IN the playing.
But the "Harvard System and other
colleges have fundamentally the same
sort of practice-provides for little ac-
tual scrrmmagjng and playing. 1t is
uniform and never-ending drill. And
after the middle Of the season no
scrimmaging at all takes place because
of fear Of injuries. Sport becomes a
grind, q business.
The hockey squad must return to
Cambridge when Christmas vacation is
half over; the same holds true Of the
crew during the spring recess. And
at this latter period the members os
the baseball, track, tennis and lacrosse
squads devote their entire vacation TO
college sport whether or not they so
desire. There is no let-up. And get

views labor struggles from an angle
different fror that Of former DAYS.
1t hazards the explanation that it
IS not so clear as once it was .Aat

before the rise Of powerful labor or
sanizations employers were dic-
7ators.
The employed vastly exceeded en-
EIoyers m number. There might be
one hundred employers in the mar
ket for a particular kind Of labor
over against ten thousand men seek
ing tie industry's jobs. Competi-
tlon among workers was thus
heener than among bosses.
But q great change has come. On
the railroads, for example, the most
skillful workers have been brought
together into four highly disciplined
organizations whose membership acts
as one man. Facing them are three
hundred or more railroads. Except
for the possible intrusion Of third
force, ca ed the public, the railroad
unions cou,d overwhelm the rail
road managements. SO it is in the
mining industry and in many others.
