If the traffic laws of the city were rigorous the entire popula tion, native, tourist and refugee would be in jail, for the native gendarmes are being assisted by American, French, English, Ital ian, Greek and Rumanian soldiers and sailors, each wearing their own uniform and shouting orders in their own language.

At the next an English j "Tommy," demonstrating "English as she should be spoke," will tell the traffic when to move and when I to stop. At the next, he may find j an American sailor, his white hat 1 tipped at the approved angle, wav- I ing his arms to the oncoming traf fic in the latest fashion decreed by j Broadway.
