Of arrests during the two years in 81
cities. The highest number recorded
in one city Is in Philadelphia, where
the Law has been enforced more rigid
ly than in any other American ne
tropolis.
Philadelphia recorded 1851 ar
rests in 1924 and 53,SO2 in 1923,
showing a decrease Of approximately
1000. While Chicago with twice the
population recorded 200 arrests for
drunkenness in 1924 and 1882 in
in 1923.
The figures throughout give no
clear indication Of the prevalence OF
bootlegging in the United States.
They are valuable only in determining
what cities are attempting to en-
force the law.
Such statistics are purely specula-
tive and cannot be twisted to show
that drunkenness is either gaining
ground or diminishing under prohibi-
ton, though the presumption Of the
daily press, with few exceptions, Is
that the country is wetter than ever.
A fair comparison would be the
number Of arrests in pre-prohibition
days as compared to the number re-
corded today.
Referring to the Champaign police
docket the arrests for drunkenness IN
1914 to 1918 are triple what they
are now under prohibition, and it Is
unlikely that the law was as rigidly
enforced then as now. But even IN
1914-191S Champaign was under
local option. Go still farther back to
the days of the open saloon in Cham
paign and the arrests for drunkenness
were larger in number than in local
option days, though the city was
smaller and the laws were not as
rigidly enforced.

Members of Organized Labor have
nothing to sell but their time. They
do not deal in any other commodity.
Business considers investment only in
terms of material substance.
For a generation, during the life Of
Samuel Gompers the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor has attempted 10
prove to the satisfaction Of business
in general that Labor is as much a
commodity as corn, cattle, steel OF
coal, and vastly more important and
vastly more worthy of conservation.
The idea has seeped through the
consciences of American business men
until Organized Labor is recognized
throughout the nation as worthy Of
consideration.
But INSCRIPTIONS capital, unwilling
to pay just wage, persists IN holding
the price of Labor down TO a mini
mum level. This is evidenced in the
tendency of certain class of indus
trial magnates to smuggle into Ameri-
ca a great army of non-union men
from various foreign countries. There
is no attempt to deny that foreign
labor is imported into the United
States contrary to law, and that there
has grown up within the last two
years a system of importing foreign
ers in violation of the immigration
laws. The system is called "bootleg-
ging in immigrants"

London, Nov. CP) --- A num- ber Of British clubmcn who re- turned recently from the United states contend that there is more prohibition in England than in America, and they are using this argument in movement designed to bring about longer hours in which drinks may be served in club rooms.
 English clubs, like the public houses, must close their bars for nine or ten out of the 2i hours, different cities and boroughs haN- ing varying regulations, Recently d delegation of club members, repre- scntinG all classes of clubs In inc country, conferred with Sir Wil- liam Joynson- Hicks, the home sec rctary, Tn the hope of receiving per mission to run things in the matter of drinks q little more 10 their own liking. They pointed out that when the restrictions on liquor were i'm posed in 1915 Mir. Lloyd GcorE", then Chancellor of the EXChcqucr promised that they were imposed only for the period of the war.
 The London clubmen who visited the United states say that they visited numerous clubs in New York and other American cities and were served with drinks morn ing, noon and night and even in the early hours before dawn.

The lnshOrn Locks

Women with short hair are not so "cantunkcroust as those with unshorn locks, in the opinion of a London hairdrcs&er catering 10 the public ill the region Of Ludgate Circus.
 "T used to be against short hair for womcn," this worthy said, "bul I've changed my mind. Al one time l would not serve women who wanted their hair cut. Many GUS toners have told mo. however, that they found that their wives were better naturcd after they had had their long hair removed.
 "Whcn l was learning the hair drcsscr's trade 70 years ago women used to complain ahout their long. heavy hair, saying that this strain on the scalp gave them nervous headache, When a mans hair gets longer than usual it annoys him and makes him nervous. so ] sup pose there is truth in inc claim of modern women that q light head is much better for the hcalth."
