Do Women Have Place in Modern Bar? Local Tavern Operator Who Frowns on Practice Challenged by Colleague

‘They Bring Trouble/ Says One: Rival Scorns This Theory. Martin (Buck) Collins (above left', who ran a saloon before prohibition and who runs a tavern now at 132 W. Maryland-st, is a bit cross at the ladies of the post-boot-log era. Now, as repeal is going into its second year, he has taken a large windup and given it as his opinion that a man's barroom is no place for the gals. They gum up the works. ”To begin with,” he says, ‘‘there are too many exceptions taken when women are present. A man may be standing at the bar, having his beer, ami some idea of particular logic strikes him. He gives it a good send oft with a choice, though harmless, swear word. Things Begin to Happen “The man with the lady, maybe having a beer too. begins to think that's no way to talk in mixed company. lie has to show the lady he's a Sir Galahad, or whoever it was who loosed velvet jackets over puddles, and he takes an exception. Things gel unpleasant. It’s eight to five that when there’s a \toman

in the joint, there’s trouble about to start. ‘Women can drink more than men. too. They take liquor drink for drink with a man who is drinking beer. I don’t know just why this is. But in a joint like mine, women have no place.” Mr. Collins runs a place that dispenses good, honest beer to working men who diop in on the way home for an evening snifter. The trouble with the place is that there are chairs and booths (all of legal measurements) about, and that’s another thing that Mr. Collins doesn’t like. Argument Drifted ‘’Before prohibition,” he says, “they wouldn't alloiv chairs in a saloon. Now it’s unlawful not to have them in a tavern. But before I start to figure out why, i have a few things to attend to.” From Jack (Berkie) Beikowiiz (above, right), also a pre-prohibi-tion saloon keeper, and present-day tavern operator, at 109 S. IllinoLsst, one gets the other point of view’. He likes the ladies—in fact has arranged his place to cater to them. For one thing, he says, they’re decorative. For another they're better drinkers than men. As for trouble makers, he says no such thing is true. They drink not more, but better,

liquor, he says. Sometimes they’ll save up for days so that they can have one good mixed drink, instead of several less expensive but more potent snorts. And he favors mixed drinks, too—discounts all contemptuous references to the garnishes as garbage and barber w’ater. He does w r ish that the price of drinks -would come dowm to somewhere within hailing distance of what they were before prohibition.

would resign Jan. 8. but in Washington today it was said March 1 may be the date. Mr. Farley is expected to resign at that time to devote all his time to the Democratic national chairmanship. Washington reports say his successor will be either Gov. McNutt or Frank Walker, National Emergency Council head. Mr. Walker was quoted, after conferring with the President yesterday. as saying he desired to devote all of his time to his private business. Hence, the impetus in the boom for Gov. McNutt. Although the Governor declined to comment, state administration spokesmen pointed out that, he frequently has placed himself on record as intending to finish his term as Governor before considering any national appointment. His term does not expire until January, 1937. The story naming Gov. McNutt as the next Postmaster General aslo included reports that he would take

Pleas Greenlee, his patronage secretary. with him to Washington. Their organizing success as a team, it is said, has caught the eye of the President. It generally is admitted the Cabinet lacks a >pc!lbinder and that Gov. McNutt's oratorical ability would be of mes'imable value in the presidential campaign. However, those ooservers who are inclined to place some credence in the report of the Governor’s appointment say there is nothing to the Greenlee angle. Certainly, there has been no slacking in the latter's undercover campaign for Governor. Persons close to the Governor say that it is quite likely he eventually will get a Cabinet post, but that such a reward wouid be contingent on his delivering Indiana for | velt next year. To do this, he would have to star here and retain control of the state machine. There would be many hands reaching for it if he resigned
