British Officially
Accept Water
AsaDrink

LONDON, March 13.-Water
has been officially recognized in
London as Q drink.
1t is easy to get any other
kind of beverage in London
restaurants, but it is next to
impossible to get a waiter to
bring you a glass Of water:
The, licensing justices of st.
Anne's and St. James, how
ever, have kicked the old anti
water tradition into the discard.
In granting a license to Chong
Choy to operate a Chinese cafe
they gave him the privilege OF
selling wine and beer, but
stipulated that facilities must
be given to customers to drink
water"
So far as is known this action
of the justices creates a pre-
cedent. Perhaps other restau-
rants will fall into line, but It
is likely that Chong Choy's will
become the only restaurant in
London famous for its drinking
water.

INDIA OLD HOME.
Of ARTISTRY
IN CALICO
Importation Was Barred by
English King, But Demand
Swamped His Laws.

India printed cottons with their
characteristic arabesques are always
in demand. They are ideal hang.
ings for studios and the homes and
dens of the artistically inclined.
India was the birthplace OF the
cotton manufacture. Its antiquity
there is very great.
The manufacture of cotton was
first introduced into Europe by the
Moors who brought 1t into Spain
in the tenth century.
An act of the British parliament
in 1900, in the reign of William. III
prohibited the introduction of the
article into England as prejudicial
to manufactures In that country,
but the demand for so gay and
light material could not be
stamped out.
James Thomson, calico printer
at Primrose. near Clitheroe, stated
before the House of Commons in
1888 that the origin of calico print
ing in England dated from about
the year 1890 when a small print
ground was established on the
banks of the Thames at Richmond
by a Frenchman, in all probability
a refugee after the Edict of Nantes.
First Large Establishment.
The first large establishment was
at Bromley Hall, in Essex. 1t stood
No. in the excise book when the
duty was first imposed. showing
that it was at that time the most
considerable manufacture of printed
calicOes near London.
In 1912 an excise duty of three
pence per square yard on calicoes.
printed, stained or dyed, was i'm
posed. In 1714 the duty was raised
to six pence per square yard.
The earliest method of printing
cotton was copied from the natives
of India, namely. printing by the
use of wooden blocks. These
blocks were of sycamore wood,
about ten inches long by five
inches broad, on the surface of
which the pattern was cut in re.
lief, in the common method of
wood-engraving.
improvements In Printing.
On the back of the block was a
handle by which the workman held
1t. There were wire points at the
corners Of the block to enable the
workman to apply it with exact
ness, and it was struck with an
iron mallet.
Copper-plates were next intro
duced in England for the more
delicate patterns, and the cloth was
then printed with flat plates by
use of the kind of press employed
In copper-plate printing. Each of
these methods being slow, they in
time were superseded by cylinder
printing which was invented by a
Scotchman called Bell and was first
used in 1885.
When cottons and muslins,
printed in England, were first in.
troduced, it sometimes happened
that they were. sold with the in
tention to deceive, but they de-
tected that the smell was not the
same; they had not the smell of
the East. This difficulty was got
over by the use of vitivert, or
kus-kus, the rhizome of an Indian
grass. andropogon muricatus.

PARIS, April 10.-Almost as big

the corruption of the French press
and French politics by agents of

Day after day L'Humanite has
been publishing documents, tele-

ed by the soviet government in

new POLITICAL
PRISONER SENT
TOLEAvENWORTH
assing Out Communist
Literature, His Act

NEW YORK, April 10.-After all
the grandstand play by the govern
ment in the release of political pris-
oners and the attempt to make peo-
pie believe that the vicious wartime
espionage act is a dead letter, the
department of justice has sent an
other political to Leavenworth. Jo-
seph Baltfusaitis of St. Louis is the
victim. The American Civil Liberties
union here, having filed application
for. pardon in Washington, de-
scribes this as zone of the most fla
grant and inexcusable political cases
on. record"
Baltrusaitis was arrested in No
vember, 1920, on the charge Of dis
tributing Communist literature, the
theory of the wartime act being that
this discouraged recruiting and en-
listment of soldiers. But the war was
over two years before his arrest and
five years and half before he was
sent to prison last month. Baltru-
salts is a Lithuanian. His arrest
was in the nature of a frame-up. A
government detective engaged him In
friendly conversation and asked for
a Communist pamphlet.
He was sentenced to two years in
October, 1921. The conviction has
now been affirmed on appeal. His
defense was that he could neither
read nor write English and could not
have known the contents of the
pamphlets.
Twelve Cincinnati Socialists, In
dicted in 1917 for opposing the
draft, will also be sent TO prison for
their opinion during the war If they
lose their appeal to the U. s. supreme
court, the Civil Liberties union points
out.
