The Increase would appear, stnte the report, to be due In some degree to the revival of club which fell out of existence dur ing the war, and lu greater degree to the Institution of new club to meet the desire of large number of men to maintain associations formed during service with the force In the war, There were In England and Wales on January 1, 1010, some 84,044 premise licensed for the aull of Intoxicating liquor on or oft Hie premise, and 22,- 288 oft llcenses, giving proportion, ac cording to the estimated population, or 22.41 on-llcenses ind 6.04 off -licenses per 10,000 persons. The full figure of on-llcenses showed a decrease upon the year of 000. In tho ten year 1805 to 1004 the average annual decrease was 3S0. For the fourteen year 1Q05 to 1018 the average was 1,102, and during 1010 Hie decrease will probably prov to have been about 60(1, making an annual average for the fifteen years since the Act of 1904 came Into oper ation of about 1.009, and leaving a total of about 83,438 on-llcenses at the beginning of the yenr 1020. The de crcaso In the number' of off-licenses during 1010 will probably prove to have been about 84, compared with 185 during the preceding twelve month. The number of licensed premises closed since January 1, 1905, when the Licensing Act, 1904, came Into opera tion, Is 10,(101, nnd the new licenses granted 054, making the totnl net de crease of licensed premises over the period 16.040.

The loss of efficiency In this method of abolishing redundant licensed premises Is due mainly to two causes, viz., (a) failure on the part of the compensa tion authorities to raise the funds authorized by the act, and (b) In crease In the cost of the licenses. During the year 1,450 license holders were prosecuted and there were 689 convictions.

Two weeks after his capture Cook was taken before the commissar, who re lated the good points of the soviet form of government before releasing 'ilm, Cook remained In Minsk for a week before he could secure papers which would give him authority to travel.

Within one year, It Is esti mated, 100 colleges will have Included the extension courses and all will be provided with the industrial material upon which to base undergraduate work. The council, according to Doctor Godfrey, Is the only war organization which has carried operations Into time of peace. Nearly all of the educators back of the movement served In the Council of National Defense. When the armistice was signed these, men decided that the educational knowl edge gained during the war at an ex penditure of millions of dollars should not be lost. Accordingly, plans were set In motion to turn this Information over to Industry. A survey of the needs of Industry was made under the auspices of the technology clubs as sociated with the Massachusetts Insti tute of Technology. CONSUL WANTS TO HIRE JAIL!

Six former American army men are now being provided by the Turkish chief of police with lodgings, where he Is detaining them with their Greek and Armenian alleged conspirators In these thefts, but the chief has ex pressed unwillingness to hold them In definitely. The basement of the American embassy formerly was used as a Jail at odd times, but the space is now being utilized as an office for George Wythe, the American trade commissioner. Consul Allen has a fund of $1,000, but, due to high rents, this would pay only for two months' rent for a Jail outside the embassy. Afliong the excuses given by the six Americans was that the high cost of living drove them to the thefts. They also declared the supplies often were stolen before reaching the charity for which they were intended, so that they felt they had a moral right to them as Americans.
