SMOKING BAN ON
] WOMEN LIFTED
New Yorks Feminine Users of
"Lady Nicotine" May Con-
Tinue Its Use

NEW YORK, March 2S.-Police
Commissioner Enright today lifted
the ban on smoking by women cS
suddenly as he clamped 1t down last
night. when he learned Alderman
MacGuinness' anti-smoking bill had
not beer passed or signed by Mayor
Hylan.
Had Police Commissioner Enright
read the purported ordinance care
fully they would have discovered 1t
was not a proper document as 1t did
not bear the stamp of the clerks Of
fee certifying that it had been APP
proved by the mayor. News that
it was a mistake came as a reprleVe
from the gallows to proprietors OF
scores of places where qualification
OF milady's passion for the soothing
weed was the chief sourc of bread
and butter revenues. Fashionable
smoke shops for women have sprung
up in Fifth yer and Broadway
while Greenwich Village had come to
be almost expert on smoke rings to
produce an atmosphere of Bohem-
ianism.
NEW YORK. March 2S-Alder-
manic records were studied today by
officials eager to determine the
truth about the ordinance prohibit
ing women from smoking in public
resorts, placed in effect last night
Although .he ordinance was signed
by Mayor Hylan, the manner in
which it reached his desk is a mys-
terry. Its author, Alderman Peter
McGuiness, didn't know it had pass
ed and other members declared they
were certain it had been buried In
legislative graveyard and forgotten.
The mystery developed after the
notice department had visited the
public amusement places in Green-
wich Village and along Broadway
and informed managers and proprie-
tors they were subject to fine n
imprisonment if they permitted wo-
men to smoke in their places.
