ashington’s Assumption of the Airs of an International Capital Adds New Interest to the Beautiful City, By Roger Batchelder. “Washington this winter has as- med the character of an Interna- jonal capital,’ reports Senator Gil- t H. Hitchcock of Nebraska, at the or. “It reminds one of the ac- ity of the war period, While we we always expected Washington to ttle domestic questions, it fs an in- tion to have the men seated at gretn table speak of the future of or regulate world affairs in thousands of miles away. The 00 or 600 persons attending the con- rence—the delegates, newspaper espondents, magazine writers and beervers—coming as they do from) ry part of the world, have made fashington a very interesting place, nd have given it a cosmopolitan at- posphere. From now on,” Senator Hitchcock tinued, “public opinion will be a endous factor in world politics. t this Washington Conference, its portance has been often demon- ted. In addition to the regular onference, Secretary Hughes has on da; a meeting with from sixty p 100 newspaper men who can ask Ai the questions that they wish. The preign delegates, also hold confer- nees with the reporters, and the uestions asked are, of course, of ticular interest to the cities from ‘ch the correspondents have been ent. This alone is a recognition of 16 power of public opinion.” eee NO SYNURA HIGHBALLS IN HARTFORD. Hartford cannot compete with New ‘ork when tt comes to synurae and bther micro-organisms, agcording to ‘aleb M. Saville, Manager and Chief Pngineer of the Hartford Water Sup- ply Company, who is at the Pennsyl- ania. Water in Hartford, he tells 3, is no lottery; when you tap the aucet you can expect neither micro- copic animals, nor anything else ex- ept water, “Our water supply covers eighty wores, and its huge reservoir holds i> 000,000,000 gallons of water,"* he suit yesterday. “It {s held by a dam 100 feet high, and is purified by two other earth dams through which the water is filtered.”” . e« « HERE’S ONE FROM OHIO. “Whenever I come here, I smile," said Joseph T. Hewitt of Cleveland optimistically, And then Mr. Hewitt, at the Biltmore, told this one: “About five years ago,” he re- lated, “a cousin of mine from Iowa came to New York for the first time. He 1s a dry goods merchant out there, and at that time he had decided to come to New York and himself look over the new stock for the year. “He got out at the Grand Cen- tral, and went to one of its en- trances—presumably that which feads to 42d Street. There he got into @ taxi and told the driver to take him to the Biltmore. The driver looked at him for a mo- ment, acording to his story, and then asked {f he was in a Mtry. He said that he wasn’t particu- larly rushed. “My cousin then relates how he went up a brightly lghted street, past a great park, turnod several corners, and arrived at his hotel in about three-quarters of an hour, The bill he paid cheerfully, realizing that this was a city of great distances. Ho | gever learned until he was about | to return home that he had en- circled Central, Park. His ad- vice since that time has been to ordé@r the taxi-driver to make the trip ‘in a hurry,’ and after learn- | ing details about the approximate destination.” 68 6 AMERICAN TOURISTS IN MEXICO “The volume of American and other travellers in Mexico {s increas- ing month by month," according to Jefferson Davis, manager of the Hotel Regis in Mexico City, who is at the MoAlpin. “With the return of American capital and American busi- fhesa men into the formerly turbulent republic, hotel men have had pros- perity. Tourists seem to realize that that country is safe at last, and the Government is waiting for the recog- nition which will come soon. “Last September, the American colony donated a children's piay- ground ‘to Mexico City. It was the first In the country, and was grate- fully accepted by the Mexican people. That was a reassuring indication of. the good feeling which exists between | the peoples of the two countries, With such assurances of prosperity, my hotel is making an addition of 600 rooms to care for American and Buro- pean visitors,’ ee .

RIGHT TO PICKET UPHELD BY COURT Striking Embroiderers Sustained in a Decision by Suprerie Court Justice Wagner. A further judicial exposition of the rights of labor unions under the law to strike and maintain “orderly” pickets is contained in a decision which Supreme Court Justice Wagner has just handed down denying the application of the Neutral Embroidery Works, No. 129 West 22d Street, for an injunction :restraining the Bonnaz, Singer and Hand Embrolderers’ Union, Local No. 66, from continuing a strike and from picketing the plain- tiff's place of business, A temporary restraining order {= vacated by the decision. The employers alleged violence and the uso of threats by members of the striking union. Justice Wagner stated that no proof had been presented to establish that the union either authorized or ratified the acts complained of. “I know of no sound principle of law," he said, ‘“‘which prohibits or- derly picketing or that which does not transgress on the rights of others. Indeed, a great body of law affirma- tively establishes the opposite propo- sition.” aa HELD FOR SHOOTING FREED, Vera Horner, twenty-four, of No. 156 West 101 et, who has bee held since 10 charged with shooting Raymond M.
