 As if it were not enough to try to keep track of the price of gasoline, of the carburetor's peculiarities, and of the queer looking man who Is waiting to steal the robe, one must now possess oneself of a traffic warning card If there Is any other little thing which the police can think up to make life highly desr- able, now is the time to spring it.

 As for mo, I am undecided. would like to go down to the sea shore and swap my cool room and nice box springs for a room like a cell in a penitentiary and a cot with springs which cry out squeaky rusty protest to heaven every time swat a mosquito, but the trouble is that I have an Annette Kellerman bathing suit and this year the sum mer resort people have got over their wartime laxity and no longer allow the bather's conscience to be her guide. There were so many well constructed girls who had no con- science and so many slender ones who couldn't stand the suits.

'I suggest that we leave the whole thing to father. The roads up in New England are good and there Is a good hotel at almost every stop, the car Is running fine and 10 days tour through the White Mountains, over the Mohawk Trail with perhaps a return by way of Newport or Gloucester with a chance for a days fishing for him and all that, is perfectly all right with me, and I know mother, that you will be willing to yield to him. for believe that father needs a va cation as much as anyone. The old dear Is a bear for work and I be- lieve that the only thing for all of

We will call 1t fathers party and let him pick every place we go, put his fish ing rod in the car and let him catch trout in the mountains. a few cod fish balls off Gloucester and maybe lobster or two around Bar Harbor.

 But now, New York is really talk ing prohibition seriously. Recently a loud noise rent asunder the cellar of warehouse. When the blanks, nails and plaster had somewhat sub sided investigtaoin revealed a dirty gallon still. The explosion, which occurred at night, brought residents of the street to the sidewalk in fan tastic night attire. Anxiety on the part of various oniookers led the po- lice to investigate further. They found in the cells six other stills, all going at full blast. The more anxious of the onlookers drifted back to bed before the police had a chance to inquire who was parking stills in that particular basement.
 From one point of view the damage was trifling. But from another point of view some 90 gallons of home brew had gone blooey.
 Variety of Labels
 It isn't necessary. either. to do anything so crude as to label your home brew by it's correct namc. Un- til the police interfered this week you could for few pennies purchase any sort of label you desired, as well as large quantities of counterfeit revenue stamps.

The eanard probably originated because New Workers have for so long been so adept in getting away with murder.
 If the rumor gets about that visit ors from the far and middle west don't have to keep one hand on their watch and the other on a police whistle, all the way from Times square to the Flatiron building, the LoteIs will soon be complaining be- cause of the great falling off in trade.

Boston Municipal Court Judge Presents Statistics to Show Number Arrests on Mor-
 phine EdictS
By A.sociated Press

Chicago, July 15.-A cure of nor phlnism would decrease criminality according to c. Edouard Sandoz, med teal director of the municipal court of Boston. "Morphinlsm in a major ity of our morphine cases Is the main Mir. Sandoz declared In report pub liohed in the Journal of the American Institute of Criminal Law and Grim inality. He gave the proportion of arrests of morphinists for violation of the drug law to arrests of nor phinists for other causes as one to three and one-tenth.
 Applying this proportion to the 245 Boston municipal court cases of 1920 for violation of ,ne drug la.', we should have. besides about S37 arrests of morphinists for other offenses, a total of 1,oS2 arrests" he added.
 "Weaning is possible in practically every case. We have no medical in- stisutions in which addicts without means are kept long enough to have Q chance to be cured Under these conditions sentence. of several months. the longer tho better, Is the best thing that can happen to them. There Is need of special institutions.
 Not Economical
 Almost all our cases arc below par from the point of view of economic efficiency. Now, since morphine is more essential for adaicts than any thing else. there Is no practicable all formative for those wno do not have the means and do not get cured but to turn to illegitimate ways of get ting money.
 "A trait which is remarkable in our norphinists is their esprit de corps. Tn spite of the widely spread be- lief that many alcoholics would aoke to morphine after prohibition. I hove not yet seen such a case.
 The remedy can be summed up in the simple formula: Control the drug control the addict',

Drama at it's most absorbing point, the story of woman's choice be- tween wealth and love, play of magnificent settings and wonderful gowns make up the entertainment which will be offered Strand patrons Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, when "The Ordeal" featuring Agnes Ayres and Conrad Nagel will be the special attraction for three days only.
 It is a story which grips the imagi nation and 1t is enacted by cast of real ability. Miss Ayres was never seen to better advantage than as the woman who must choose the real road to happiness. In addition to her acting. she has some of the most gorgeous costumes the screen has ever known. Conrad Nagel as the lover in question. gives con vincing portrayal in a different role.

MANY RESENT STEP OF JAPAN BANK ID
 WITHHOLD LOANS
Action to Refuse Loans to Raw Silk Producers of Ja- pan Received by Many
 With Indignation
By Associated Press

Toiio, July l5-considerable com ment has been evoked In sericultural circles regarding the attitude adopted by the Bank of Japan which ad- vised the bankers throughout the country to withhold accommodation to the raw silk manufacturers who may be induced to buy the new sea- sons cocoons at their extraordinarily high price.
 The reason advanced by the Bank of Japan Is that if the cocoons are bought at their prevailing high cost, raw silk produced therefrom must be sold at such a high price that tho export trade would decline There fore the bank believes 1t advisable that the price of cocoons should be brought down to a more reasonable level for the sake of national eco- monies.
 Cocoon Men Resent The attitude assumed by the Bank of Japan, however, Is resented by many cocoon producers. Sanji MutO. president of the Manegafuchi Spin ming company, acting as their spokes- men, gives his views of the subject in the press MT. Muto characterizes the attitude taken by the bank as uncalled for and intended to upset the economic laws of supply and de- mand
 "In 1920, when economic circles were faced with panic" says MT. Muto, the cocoon producers were obliged to resort to sacrifice safes thereby sustaining heavy losses It Is true that the silk manufacturers were also put to considerable difficulty but :n their case the government came to the rescue and their difficulties were materially descended by the es- company, which undertook to buy up the stock at fixed prices.
 Principal Sufferers
 "The cocoon producers, however had no redress and were the prin- cipal sufferers at the time. The con sequence was that the yield of CO., coons last year showed a decrease as against the previous year and this years yield Is likely to show a Ge crease of 10 per cent on 1921. Now that a boom has set in the export of raw silk, it Is only natural that fhe price of cocoons should rise. In the circumstances the Interference of tho Bank of Japan not only is need- less but harmful as 1t tends to pro- tect the raw silk manufacturers at the expense of the cocoon producers
 Other interests say unless the price of cocoons and thin silk Is lowered the business will collapse as silk stockings and other articles of fem mine wear which consume so much silk will rise beyond purses of the women of America who are the chief support of the silk Industry.

CITIZENS REJOICE AS
 NEGRO DOC IS CONFINED

Jackson. Miss. July 15.-(spe- cial )-The courts have denied Dr. 5 A. Miller, negro physician, liberty on habeas corpus proceedings and refused to reduce the s12.ooo bond required of him. Miller was opposed to making cotton and corn down on the county farm and wanted the bond required reduced very materi- ally. He now goes to the farm, and seems to have reached the end of his row.
 Miller is said to have sold more narcotics during the past two years than all the hospitals and all other physicians In Jackson have used during that time.
 The people of Jackson had about made up their minds that if the courts let Miller go this time they would ask the mayor to turn him over to the Ku Klux Klan to deal with as they saw fit
