CABARET "TAPS" SOUNDED Philadelphia Liquor Men Deter mined to Stop Dancing in Cafes. PHILADELPHIA. June 27 Proprie tors of all Hotels and restaurants with dancing and cabarets permitted where liquor is sold backed down when finally told by the allied liquor interests that their edict and ultimatum was no "bluff." As a result the word was passed around to all patrons before the closing hour that the "Home. Sweet Home" waltz was really "taps" for the terpsichorean part of the entertainment, and the last song and dance number spelled "curtain" on the cabaret. The liquor interests had given their three days' warning, and the other night it was announced officially that from now on they meant business. Judge Patterson's statement that "the law is quite clear it affects rich and poor, high and low" also struck the cabaret and dancehall proprietors like a 42-centimeter shell.

The newly appointed "tribunal" of the al lied liquor interests will be present at this meeting and they will be Instructed thoroughly Just what they shall do In the cases of any who violate the rul ings made by Judges Patterson and Staake on the Brooks high license law. "The warning has gone forth and there will be no backing down." said Neil Bonner, president of the National Liquor Dealers' Association. "We have acted fair and we expect all cabarets, dance-rooms and other illegal enter tainment features where liquor Is sold to close down for good and alL They all will close, have no misunderstand ing on that score.

Suggestion of ex-Preslitent Taft In dorsed Value of Trained Lead ers Illustrated by Germany In European War. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, July 5. In Army circles the h&pe is strong that Congress, looking to increasing the efficiency of the Army, will maka provision for a ma terially larger staff of trained officers, some for the regular service and others for the reserve. This end can beac complished either by carrying out the suggestion of ex-President Taft. by es tablishing a second military academy in the West, or by substantially en larging the present academy at West Point. "In the event tha fnited States should be Involved In war with a great power." said an officer -on duty in Washington, "our Army would be han dicapped In two ways by the lack of trained officers and by lack of am munition. We would labor under other handicaps." he admitted, "but these would be the two weak spots. German success, such as has thus far been achieved. In my opinion, has been due more to the adequacy of competent of ficers than to any other one cause. Tralae Officers Prove Wartk. "The Germans had an inexhaustible supply of men trained to command troops. There were the officers al ready In the regular service those who had given their lives to the army and in the reserve were many times more officers, all of them trained and com petent to step In and take tha places of thoxe killed or wounded. "Germany even had enough officers to spare, some for service with the Austrian troops, and under German commanders the Austriamt. during the later months of the war. have made their most creditable showing. Not only that loojt at the Turks. Under their own commanders there Is no doubt they would have been driven from European territory long ago by the allied forces, but under command of German officers they have been able to withstand the attacks of tha allies at the Dardanelles, and military men are disposed to attribute this suc cessful resistance largely to competent command. I altrd ftatea Army Larkias;. The United States Army, on the other hand." continued thla officer, la woefully lacking in trained and com petent commanders, or would be If the Nation were suddenly plunged Into war and were forced to raise large bodies of troops. We havo enough officers for our present Army. It Is true, but the regular Army la a small part of the Army we would require In the event of war with a big and powerful na tion, and the bulk of the fighting would have to be done by volunteera. "Officers are not made in a day: It takes yean to educate a man to com mand troops and to Instruct him in the art of warfare. True, there are mllttlu officers who could be called on. but there are not enough of them to go around. Where would the United States turn. If It should suddenly face the necessity of raising an army ade quate to cope with a mighty foe? It Is much easier to Instruct volunteers if their Instructors are thoroughly fa miliar with their subject than If the Affords the men and women of Portland a rare opportunity -to supply their clothes needs with late styles and fine qualities at the minimum of cost.
