URKJHTON, Kntiland, Jan. 20. (Al' St. John Krviue, the Hiitlsh dramatist and critic who aojourned In New York for a few moutliy lant year, has Home IntereKtinK thiiiKH to way about life in the United States. The averaKe. KntfliHlinian, he said in a lecture here, has no concep tion of the InmieriHlty of the coun try and the complexity of it task of Koverurneut. Some people ex pect and hope that the t'nited Stales one day will break up into five nations; they contend the existing nation is too vast for one government. American laws seem harsh to the English, but there's a reason, for "so many thousands of these people are not merely Ignorant but uncivilized. In 1917. 12,000 persona were murdered in the United States; the averaKe annual fipure in England and Wales is less than 150." Drunken Children . Mr. Krvlne admitted it shocked him to discover that "children net drunk In tho United States," but added: "I don't want you to think that, if you go to America, you will see infants staggering about in the streets; but that anv child at all can get drftnk Is a disgrace." One of the youngsters he met socially was "a girl just returned from a children's party complain ing that most of the children were drunk." Whether he" investigated tho truth of this particular com plaint he did not say. Women Drunk, Too However, at the hotel where he himself was staying there must have been considerable commotion on N'v Year'" eve. About 1.000 people were dining there, said Mr. Krvlne, and at every table there was a drunken woman. "I saw more drunken women in seven months in the United States," he added, "than I have seen In this country in seven vea rs." The speaker reminded his audi ence, however, that there nre in the United Slates also nmnv peonle who remain reasonably sober tlie year 'round.

The city installed a pump three years ago, anil now buys gasoline at whoksale rates under a year's contract. As the bids have been uniform heretofore it has been the prac tice to pass the contract around among the companies. ltids submitted last night were uniform except for the proposal of the Texaco company. The other companies bid 4 cents under the tank wagon price, which is now 24 4 cents, while the Texaco bid was 5 cents under the tank price, all bids Including the stnte tax.
