A Hideous Menace,

Washington has just banned the
promiscuous loud speaker as a nuisance.
but unless adjacent Maryland and Vir-
ginia follow suit, the Capital is in
danger of suffering a shocking torment
of sound If a new German device
should be imported to this country.
Its advent in Berlin is noted in a
dispatch which states that the other
day orchestral selections were sprayed
over a radius Of twenty-five miles from
the roof Of an experimental laboratory.
These strains of music, equal in volume
to an orchestra of 1000 pieces, came from
q mammoth new loud speaker which
takes a current Of 100 amperes, weighs
more than 100 pounds, and has a dia-
phragm a sixteenth Of an inch thick,
with q vibration of half an inch on
either side Of the center, this vibration
being strong enough to produce air
waves that can be felt one hundred
and fifty feet away. 1t is now planned
In Berlin to attach the monster to
a balloon anchored three thousand feet
aloft and to broadcast from it a con-
cert audible to the whole city of Berlin.
Think OF the possibilities Of such a
gigantic noise machine! Stationed In
some complacent area under the pro-
lection of a liberal law or a lack of law,
it would sweep the whole District of
Columbia with its din. It might be a
pleasant din for a little while, agree
able to lovers of music for brief periods.
But even the finest music becomes a
pest if continued too long. And there
is no guarantee that the titanic mouth
piece would be confined to musical
notes. Advertising slogans, so-called
dramatic sketches, orations, arguments,
the whole range of radio might be
showered down upon an area of many.
many square miles.
This is not a fantastic concept. It
Is quite possible that it will happen
unless some restraint Is put upon the
loudspeaker outside Of the District.
The blare of the neighbours horn will
be as nothing compared with the crash
and boom of the commercial balloon
borne broadcaster. This is the time to
act against such hideous possibility,
before the German device has been
imported.

Exit, Horse Police!

A few years ago the last horse
drawn fire engine went out of service.
and now comes the inevitable an
nouncement that the horse mounted
policeman is to make his exit from the
stage of modern city life in Washington.
Like the spirited FIRE horse, the
policemans mount won the affection
of the community during the many
years he trudged along the country roads
in all kinds Of weather, doing his part
along with the bluecoat to protect life
and property. There is bound to be a
certain sentimental regret as the faith
full animal gives way to the motor in
another field of service, but the
change is a proper one.
There was time when the horse
was a necessary and important cog in
the police organization, to enable an
oficer to patrol large and sparsely
settled suburban areas on the outskirts
Of town. But with the number of
automobiles on the highways today
there Is an unnecessary hazard, both
to the horse and to the mounted police
man. without any offsetting advantage
In continuing this mode Of patrol work.
In recent years the Police Department
has developed system Of patrolling the
suburbs by placing policemen in auto
mobiles, which make 1t possible for them
to traverse their entire precinct fire.
quently during the day and night. With
motor transportation the policeman can
go quickly to the scene of trouble any
where in his territory.
1t was to be expected that before
long the horse would have to step aside
in police work, too, but he will not be
forgotten. Twenty years from now old
timers will still be telling their grand
children about the days when policemen
patrolled their beats on horseback.

An Irritating He

There is q type of automobile horn
in use in the National Capital, as else
where, which packs within the limit Of
four notes the maximum Irritating
erect. As 1t is impossible to put music
into words, 1t is sum --cnt to say that
the horn goes "too-t-o-too-toot."
Every one will recognize it, as every
one has heard 1t. :erhapS it was when
one was trying hic :,est to master some
intricate problem in his daily work.
Just as he got to the key idea Of the
situation, and had harnessed the well
known train Of thought for a successful
run, his meditations were broken by
"too-too-too- toot!"
Or perhaps 1t was in the equally well
known middle of the night, ere slum-
ber's chains had bound him, that he
heard the gay young blood down the
block arriving home from a wild party
"Too-too-too-to ot!"
It is the irritating insistence Of the
call, which bores itself into the mind
as well as into the ears, that demands
redress. The law-abiding will wonder
what can be done about It.
The question of city noises is more
and more coming to the fore, as
municipalities everywhere attempt to
curb the misuse Of radio, and so on.
Perhaps it is not out Of place to sug-
gest the consideration, at least, of the
abolition Of trick automobile horns.

A Luxurious Credit.

New York City is now the scene Of
an extraordinary case of extension Of
credit in defiance Of all rules of busi-
ness precaution. Recently q large
spending man about town, a broker,
suffered complete financial collapse.
He had within few months spent over
two million dollars, and not only the
firm Of which he was a partner but
others were mortally hit by the blow
out. He was indicted, arrested and bail
ed, and is now under examination in
Federal bankruptcy. proceedings, with
the disclosure Of some highly interest
ing matter relating to his gayeties and
extravagances. One Of the particularly
entertaining revelations in the case,
however, is that he is even now occupy
ing three-room suite at one Of the
most expensive hotels in the city and
has his meals there on an elaborate
menu and also has the use Of o motor
car Of VIGOROUSLY costly make, with
liveried chauffeur. When his financial
collapse occurred his own $500, 900
apartment, his automobiles, his wardrobe
and his bank account were impounded.
So far as known he is penniless, yet he
is living, as stated, in luxury. The hotel
company is putting him UP without cost
and the automobile company Is furnish
ing transportation and service and even
gasoline. The manager Of the motor car
company agency says '.he was one Of
our best customers when he was in
funds. and when o customer Is In dim

to reflect he will recognize that the
fault Is his own and not that of the
machine. and certainly not that of the
operator.
There was q case in New York the
other day illustrating the absurdity Of
telephone temper. This had q financial
side. Fred Roth went into a cigar
store in the Bronx to use the phone
and he dropped three nickels, one
after the other, into the slot to at
tract the attention Of the operator
When the third nickel failed he saw
red, ragged, tore the door of the tele-
phone booth and made such o nuisance
of himself generally that he was ar
rested and held on 1000 bond for the
grand jury on q charge Of felonious
assault committed upon the policeman
who checked him in his violent career.
Let Mr.. Roth be a horrible example
to those who are annoyed by the tele-
phone. 1t serves wonderfully we'll and
fails only when something is wrong
with the machine, which is once in a
blue moon.

Nearly Seven Millions.

The official census figures for Greater
New York almost justify the pre-enu-
meration claim of seven millions for the
metropolis. The figure as stated is
6,955,363, a gain of 1,335,3I5 in ten
years, or 23.8 per cent. This is a SUBJ
stantial though not a phenomenal
accretion. Its significance, however, is
increased from the fact that Manhattan
borough lost 1876 per cent in the dec
ade, all other boroughs gaining. The
actual depletion Of Manhattan was
427,664. This decrease is attributed to
the movement Of Manhattanites into the
suburbs, their migration being due to
the increase in rents in the older
borough. This increase in rents is in
turn due to the diminishing residential
area, which finally in turn is the result
OF the expansion of business territory.
In short, Manhattan Is becoming the
business Office" of the greater city.
The heaviest increase of all the Dor
oughs is that in Queens County, which
comprises Long Island beyond the
bounds of Brooklyn. That borough
grew from 46s,o42 to 1,07s,4o7, a gain
of 610,S65, or 100 per cent. Thus the
Queens borough gain was almost one
and half times the loss of Manhattan.
1t does not follow that the Manhat-
tanites who quit that area all moved
to Queens. 1t is, however, significant
Of a desire for better living in more
wholesome conditions that this migra-
ton, in whichever direction it may have
mainly gone, has taken place.

Tempers and Telephones.

Many a person has lost temper with
the telephone, In the days before the
dial system the central exchange
operator was the favorite object of
protestation. and many q TRADE has
been poured into the ears of the i'm
personal young women at the switch
boards, only to elicit frigid Excuse
1t, please" In response. Now that the
dials have come into use 1t Is hard to
get any satisfaction from "cussing the
phone" when things go wrong. There
is really no sense in wasting good
language on q machine.
OF course, there was never any use
IN rowing with the girl at central. The
that the fault was that Of the caller
and not Of the operator. Now, with
the machine system, the fault is al
most sure to be that of the phone user.
HIS finger may slip. or he may forget
the number, or he may get confused
and signal the wrong letters-DE for
District, for instance, or DI for De-
catur, or GA for Georgia instead Of
Cor he may think that one zero
is enough when two are required to

wrong under the dial system, and II
