OUT DRUG TRAFFIC “Y. Blanc” Gives Much Aid With Information New York, Oct 13 —Due to the vol- untary work of a wealthy New Yorker, known to the police department as ‘‘X. Blanc,”” New York has become an in- ternational clearing house for police in- formation concerning the illicit traffic in narcotic drugs. This information, together with an account of the work done by ‘'X. Blanc” in Europe, whence he has Just returned, has been made public by Spe- cial Deputy Police Commissioner Carle- ton Simon. Commissioner Simon, who afyo serves without pay as head of the narcotics division of the police department, said that ‘“X_ Blanc,” working as his Eur- opean assistant, had secured the co- operation of England, Belgium and rance in a determined effort to stamp out the contraband traffic. To this end, he announced, ‘authori- ties in Paris, London and Brussels have arranged to send all information relat- ing to drugs and drug addicts to New York as fast as it is collected and to keep the department here advised of intended shipments of contraband to this and other countries. Commissioner Simon said that “‘X. Blanc” reported alarming increases in drug addiction in all’ European coun- tries except Germany. Belgian authorities, he added, are divided in their opinions on whether the increased use of narcotics or the in- creased showing of American ‘‘Wild ‘West”” moving pictures is to be blamed for recent outbreaks of crime.

COMMUTERS DO NOT FAVOR NEW TICKETS Are Subjected to Having Pictures Taken New York, Oct. 13.—The new face- on-the-ticket rule «of the New York Central railroad has put a stop to the old practice of transferring or selling commutation tickets to suburbanites. But the commuters didn't like the idea and they groaned as' the cameras clicked. Their protests were unavailing, how- ever, for the railroad decreed that no more commutation tickets would be issued after October 1, unless a photo- graph of the holder was attached to the ticket. The rush to have pictures taken was so great during the last week of grace that almost eyery sta- tion aldng the rhilroad’s linesfvas con- verted into an emergency photograph gallery. All available photographers were rounded up and posted at stations, thus giving the commuter an oppor- tunity of being “mugged” while wait- ing for his train to carry him to work in the city. After the first rush, these /photo- graphers no longer said, “look pleas- ant, please.”” The commuters said it was impossible. An oberving train conductor remarked that it was cur- ious that many of the photographs showed scowling countenances. The railroad explained that one of the first effects of the new regulations was a tremendous falling off in the sale of commutation tickets at a small station on the West Shore division. Although this station had ‘only a cor- to sell 40 commutation tickets every month. 4 This was the explanation, according to the railroad: The commutation rate from this station was only 32 cents, whereas the regular round-trip -fare ‘was $2.70. Some one was bnying commutation tickets and then farming them out by the day at scalper's rates—$1.50. On a transaction of this kind the passen- ger saved $1.20, the scalper made $1.18 and the raflroad lost $2.32. MEXICANS PROTEST TAX. Stores and Business Places Expected 1 To Close As Result. Mexico City, Oct. 13 (By “Associated Press)—Wholesale suspension of busi- ness by stores and factories in the city of Puebla was expected today, it was asserted in dispatches received here from that city. This would be in pro- test against alleged excessive taxation by the state government. Advices from Puebla indicate the economic situation there is serious. Puebla state authorities, instead of modifying the revenue law against which protests have been made, are re- ported to have made new levies upon moving picture houses and theaters, which it is said, may close immediately. The two railroads running through Pue- bla continue to unload goods consigned to that city, and warehouses there are overflowing, as teamsters refuse to move any of the accumulated mer- chandise. g Tampico again appears in press re- ports as another scene of unrest, due to unemployment. _ NEW BUSINESS OPENS School Organized to Teach Young Men to Administer Estates New York, Oct. 13.—Tentative plans for the establishment of a school to train young men to become superin- tendents of large estates are before officers of the national association of gardeners in convention here. Such plans have met with the approval of the officials of the organization who announced that an attempt probably would be made to induce wealthy estate owners to flnance the project.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERAL NEWSPAPER PUBLIC, NOT PRIVATE, THING S0 Declares Sp—eaker at Press " Congress Today Honolulu, T. H., Oct, 18.—A news- paper does not belong to its owner, ‘William Southern, jr., owner of the In- dependence, Mo., ‘‘Examiner,” told the Press Congress of the World, in ses- sion here, today in the course of a speech on the ‘‘The Provincial Press.”” “‘A newspaper is a public”institution and is not fulfilling its highest func- tions if devoted selflshly. “*As a fundamental principle, it is agreed that the truth is the basis of all correct joyrnalism. To go beyond the truth is a betrayal of trust. To suppress the truth when it properly be- longs to the public is always to be condemned and never practiced, “‘Control of news or comment for business considerations is unworthy, News should be written and interpret- ed wholly and at all times in the inter. est of the public. “‘Not only are these principlés to be applied to the news and editorials, but to the advertising columns. Deceptive or misleading advertisements or adver- tising disguised as news brings disre- pute to the newspapers which permits such tactics. © 1 g “It was a noted Frenchman ,who wrote, - ‘Suffer yourself to be blamed, imprisoned, condemned; suffer yourself even to be hanged, but publish your opinion, It is not a right, it \Is a duty’.” Small town newspapers, Mr. South- ern told his audience, have come nearer formulating a set of ideals of the news- paper profession into a code of ethics than has any ot{er section of the news- paper world, ““These declarations have so far only come from the provincial papers, but have received the strong endorsement of the larger papers and world wide com- ment and approval.” ““The highest art in’ the newspaper business,”” Mr. Southern declared, ‘‘is to give the readers what they should have in such a way that they will think it i3 exactly what they want.” WILL PRESENT PLAY One Act Comedy ‘‘Swimmin’ Pools” To Play Return Date Here Monday Eve- ning at St. Mark’s. *‘Swimfin’ Pools,”’ the one act play which was presented by the Amphion club of the New Britain High school last year will be presented again next Monday evening at the St. Mark’s par- ish house for the benefit of the Knights of Washington, an organization of that church.

The first will be held this evening at 7 o’'clock. The occasion for'the .presentation of the play is a joint meeting of the St. Mark’'s chapter of the Knights of Washington with that of All Saiints’ chuich of Meriden.
