FIGURES ON NARCOTICS
DISPUTED BY DRUG MAN
Anderton Failed to Note lie.
git1note Uses, Says Letter.

Stephen p. Anderton, trustee OF the
newly organized Narcotic Drug Controi
League, is taken to task for his asser-
ton that the drug traffic has made
New FORK city the plague spot of tEe
nation by William Mcconnell. secretary
of the drug and chemical section OF the
New York Board of Trade and Trans
portation, in a letter which MI. NC
Connell sent yesterday to THE NEW
York HERALD.
Mr.. Mcconnell acknowledged that he
could not controvert the figures quoted
by Mr. Anderton relative to the In
creased number of drug addicts sent 10
Sing Sing but said that VI the trustee'c
information regarding increased addic-
ton was as correct as his information
on the quantity of narcotics shipped out
of the state then lit is pure guess AMI
therefore useless"
Mr.. Andertons remarks on the mar
cotic situation were published last Mon
cay in THE NEW YORK HERALD. Mr.. Nc
Connell said Mr.. Anderton's failure to
differcntiate between the legitimate
user of drugs and the addict was an
injustice.
Mr. Anderton had said there was viz
tually no control over the drug situation
I'm this State. In answer Mr.. Mcconnell
asserted that 'the State Board OF
III ealth is endowed with plenary powers
to regulate and control the handling
sale and use of narcotics in this State. "
Mr. Mcconnell called attention to the
Harrison narcotic law, which. no said,
''accomplishes the same purpose for the
nation. and insures ;ha control of the
traffic in narcotics within the jurisdic-
tion and administration of the Commi 5
sioner of Internal Revenue. were such
control was placed TO afford an effec-
ment"

ON A BUSINESS ISSUE
Jury Finds Law Applies Only
to Dwelling Places.

An unusual verdict was given yes
terday by a jury in a rent case in the
Bronx County Court. wherein II was
held that when a tenant occupies a

premises for business that the tenant
Is not protected by the rent laws. The
verdict was in a suit by Mrs. Eleanor
Randall OF New Rochelle against the
Young Mems Hebrew Association, Inc.

The jury held Mrs. Randall was en-
titled to increase the rent from s65 to
$40 a month for the quarters occupied

INFLUENZA GERMS
]. NOT 50 ROBUST now
Less COntagiOn Reported by
Physicians, With 366
New Cases.
WARNING BY COPELAND
Says CareleSsness Is One OF
Chief Causes of Contract
ing Disease.
PNEUMONIA LIST GAIN 131
Comparisons With Former
Years Show Large Decrease
in Fresh Victims.

Comparisons made by Health De-
partment officials Of the present
prevalence OF influenza with, that of
the corresponding days of the severe
epidemics Of 1918 and 1920 show that
the disease is not so widespread and
is milder In form. Cases of influenza
reported yesterday, however, were 366,
as against 191 on Wednesday. There
was not so great an increase in pneu-
monia, 131 cases. as compared with
112 the day before. Three deaths from
influenza and 4s from pneumonia were
reported.
DIR. Royal S. Copeland. Commits
sioner Of Health, said that on January
10 occurred the first indication OF an
increase above the seasonal average OF
the two diseases. On tie correspond
ing day, the seventh day Of the cpl
demic of 1918 694 cases were re-
ported, while on the seventh day OF
the 1920 attack 462 cases occurred.
There are two possible reasons for
this" said the Commissioner. First
a degree of immunity may have been es-
tablished. Those VINO once were at
tackled by the disease may not be SO
likely to have recurrence Of 1t and
those who escaped 1t the first two times
evidently have some resistance to II
that should prevent their getting 1t this
time. Second. the milder form of the
disease, as reported by physicians. may
cause 1t to be less contagious"
DR.. Copeland went on to outline the
chief symptoms Of infiuenza--a feeling
of prostration. running nose and eyes,
cough, pains in the back and various
joints and particularly pains in the eyes
and forehead. He urged any one who
felt any Indication Of any OF these symp-
toms to visit physician Immediately.
He also requests every physician who
has any patients suffering from "hu
to make report so that the Health De-
partment may be accurately informed
Of the situation at all times.
Reports Of physicians" continued DR.
Copeland, confirm the belief that pa
tients who get out OF bed too soon after
an attack OF influenza are apt to suf-
develops into pneumonia complications
when patients refuse TO yield TO the dis
ease by continuing to 20 about their
every day work or occupations. Bron-
chial pneumonia Is the most usual COM
plication developing from influenza"
The Commissioner again called atten-
ton 20 the danger Of overcrowding in
apartments and tenements. He said
that It was almost inevitable that where
more than ono person is sleeping In q
room the disease will be transmitted II
one OF the persons has II. He cited in
stances reported to him by DIR. NJ. Schul-
man, chief of Vanderbilt Clinic. wherc
entire families living in a crowded space
have been swept by the malady. He
again cautioned landlords TO give strict
attention to the heating OF apartments
A temperature of 6s degrees should be
maintained.

Like the Furniture Sale itself, original with
Wanamakers, the idea Of Courtesy Days is now

to offer the privilege of selection one January

Wanamaker Courtesy Days offer the privilege
of selecting furniture in January-NOW-and
charging it on the February account payable in
March. And that's courtesy that means some

Wholesale costs have come down and our retail

DRAKE WORKER Of. MIRACLES
euccaneer Credited With Wondrous
Power by Simple Country Folk
Of His Day,

The story Of Elizabeth Sydenham,
wife Of Sir Francis Drake, that gay
buccaneer Of Elizabethan days, is
parallel in many ways to the classic
story Of Penelope, wife Of the Greek
wanderer, Ulysses. Only the denoue-
mcnt Of the story differs from the an
cient tale. History says that Sir Fran
cis, although he roamed the seas, was
the most faithful Of husbands. Eliza.
beth was his second wife.
1t was generally believed by the
simple English country folk that
Drake had the power of working
miracles. On one occasion, it is said,
when he left home to make one of his
long and perilous voyages, Sir Fran
cis told his wife that if he did not re-
turn within ten years she might con-
slider him dead and herself at liberty
to marry again.
The years went by with no word
from the absent knight, and as Lady
Drake was a beautiful and charming,
as we'll as wealthy, woman, she was
soon besieged by suitors. f0r long
time she remained steadfast to her
husband. Like Penelope waiting at
home for the warning Ulysses, she re-
fused none, but accepted none. She
kept them all in a perpetual state of
hope.
Finally, though, after a good deal
more than ten years had elapsed, and
still there was no news Of Sir Fran
els, Elizabeth succumbed to the i'm
portunities Of one of the suitors, and
all details for the wedding were ar
ranged.
And here is where the miracle came
in, according to legends:
"One Of brakes ministering spirits,
writes one historian, "whose charge 1t
was to convey him any intelligence In
which he was nearly concerned.

down the globe on one side and up
on the other, With so true an aim
that it made its way into the church,

cerned, just as the marriage service
was beginning.
