Works That Way

1t is not as silly as it sounds, for
it works pretty much that way,
without the buttons. A cheap sa-
loon, selling beer, is raided, the beer
confiScated, the owner arraigned
tried and convicted. his place pad
locked. The wealthy hotel owner
escapes. He has money and in
fluence. The poor man plays cards
IN a cheap club and is arrested in
a raid; the wealthy man CANDLES
for high stakes in a fashionable club
and is free Of annoyance.
The liquor laws, the' vice laws
the gambling laws. are all class leg
islation. The poor cannot afford to
buy good liquor at today's bootleg
prices. They drink poison liquor.
The wealthy man, If he didn't stock
up before prohibition, buys 1t at his
club or hotel.
So, by divine right, position rules.
and the police plod on, opposed by
those who can .hire skilled lawyers
and have millions behind them, un-
supported by the very people who
cry most loudly for law and order.
Again I must say, considering ev-
erything, the political situation, the
apathy and pacifism Of the churches,
the open antagonism of the privi-
legged class and the constant temp
tations offered, the police Of Phila-
delphia did remarkably well.

$4,000 would have no buttons and
be punishable for any offenses they
might commit-as they are now.
This would simplify the work of

to advance from the red to the
white and from the white to the
blue-button class.

Parsons Pacific

There are no fighting parsons in
Philadelphia. All seemed to be
afraid Of the money suppliers. One
prominent clergyman told me he
intended to break the law whenever
he felt like it.
There are hundreds Of traffic VIC
lations every day and it Is this privi-
lege-demanding class that commits
most OF them. The president Of the
Chamber Of Commerce, Charles p.
Vaughan, was twice arrested for
speeding. 1 wouldn't help him. He
appealed to a magistrate and, after
an affectionate scene, escaped pun
ishment.
These people really demand privi-
leges-they don't merely request
them. A world renowned philanthro-
pist, who lives In Philadelphia, in
sisted on being given a courtesy card
a card that would permit him to
park his car anywhere he pleased
and to violate other minor laws.
When 1t was refused he cooled off
on reform. Philadelphias leading
banker, one Of the wealthiest men
in America, appealed to me per.
sonally several times to renew such
a card for him. He had carried one
for many years. Refused, he, too,
cooled.

ed crime and vice eliminated. But
these same bankers had managed to
obtain the assignment of policemen
to stand guard inside their banks.
When / withdrew the policemen
there was an cutlery. The bankers
felt they were a privileged class,
but could see no reason for their
not employing their own guards.
The bankers then lost their inter-
est in the civic fight.
Trafiicmen Shifted
we began shifting traffic police
men at regular intervals. They had
been kept too long at the same posts,
they had made friends and permitted
these friends. mostly influential
business men, to violate traffic
ordinances. Some of these posts
were worth thousands of dollars a
year to the policemen.
Another clamor arose. Bankers
and business men swamped by office
and the mayors with complaints.
The Chamber of Commerce re-
fused to support the war because
the persistent effort to enforce the
law impartiallly, on rich and poor
alike, had affected the hotel bust
ness. They said statesmen and other
travellers avoided Philadelphia on
weep ENDS because liquor could not
ne purchased in the hotels.
The churches and church people
were sincere, but they were pacifiists.
They said, let's do it painlessly,
without offense to our rich con-
tributors who sit in the front pews.
The Committee of Seventy, a So
called reform organization, was a
dud. The Kiwanis, the Rotary and
similar business groups took no ac-
tive part in the war, though some
did pass resolutions. The Law En-

One Of the most remarkable In
ventions in the service Of human
ity stands to the credit of Miss liza
Thompson, an instructor in a
school for the deaf in London.
Known as the Thompson Sensitive
Flame, It is beacon of hope to
the deaf. An ordinary gas flame,
regulated 50 that vibrates to every
sound, 1t oyercomes the hitherto
insnperable difficulty Of teaching
word-sonnds to the deaf-mute.
By means Of the vibrations of the
flame he is trained to remember
the particular sounds in the alpha
bet, and the sequence necessary for
the production Of words.
