AMERICANS FIND OASIS
ON UNPROHIBITED ISLAND
HAVANA—About the only per
sons seen on the streets of Havana
who show symptoms of over-in
dulgence in intoxicants are Ameri
cans. This* does not mean, however,
that all Americans who come here i
drink to excess.
Beer and light wines are so much
a part of the Latin life that it has
no intoxicating effect. They drink
moderately. But some visitors from;
the dry land seem to drink con- j
stantly, once they find a bar.
To Americans, however, the most
disagreeable and sickly picture is
the hobo from home, a hopeless,!
wretched figure that infests hotel
lobbies. His panhandling is brazen.
They pick out people speaking their*
own tongue, and without shamej
boldly announce that they want ■
money for drinks. They long ago;
discarded the appeal for help to
get the other shirt from the laun
dry.
Most of these unfortunates did
not follow the flag; they followed \
| the whisky trail, generally as stow-J
aways or in ship crews they deserted j
once within swimming distance of j
the docks. But for passport regu- j
lations. Havana police authorities j
say, there would be hundreds here j
from the States with a thirst and j
no visible means of support.
Cuba happens to be the nearest j
"foreign country” to the States, i
and government officials here de- j
clare that much of the growing j
travel is due to the fact that the I
island Isn’t dry. It is a big item of j
revenue, and has helped to put up j
prices for everything.

“Every knock a boost, and rat-!!

“For a year or two prior to Jan- ■ 9
nary 1, 1918, there had (frown up!9
in Greenwich Village a series of IB
Bohemian restaurants which had at- 8
tracted to it a host of sight-seers Jj
and morbid-minded persons with a "
jaded appetite for sensation. Among |
those who came were many of the j
degenerate type of both sexes, who ■
participated in the absurd diversions j
offered at these places at high prices ;
and danced to jazz music with all
the rediculous and sometimes sug
gestive and disgusting conduct
which is characteristic of such re
sorts.
“A Chinese funeral or a Iloui
Indian snake dance would be far
more, interesting and entertaining
but a certain foolish and degenerate
appetite for the unusual or sensa- :
tional, mostly recruited from out-!
side New York, prompted by sight- i
seeing car grafters and other para- j
sites, kept these places alive and j
proved that Bamum was right re- j
garding the mental capacity of some j
people. i
“These conditions immediately re- \
ceived the attention of this depart- '
ment, with the result that several
of them discontinued business, while 1
those that remained are obliged to j
keep within the law. As they are no :
longer allowed to flout the law or
to cater to the depraved tastes of
their regular clientele, that section
will soon become unattractive to'
the sightseer and will be restored
to its previous status of respectable i
residential and business neighbor- ■
hood."
