Parisian Waiters Fear the
Competition of Women
PARIS, March 31 (Correspondence of the
Associated Press.).—Paris waiters are up
in arms against a proposition to extend
the employment of women in restaurants
and cafes. Heretofore women have been
admitted to a certain class of popular-
priced restaurants and to recently estab-
lished bars, only. The mobilization took a
great many waiters and it was suggested
their places might be taken advantageously
by women. The waiters hold that there
is no necessity for it, as business is much
reduced. They fear the introduction of
women now would develop serious labor
conflicts after the frar.

Since the battles with which Field Mar-

FUTILE, HE SAYS
BRITISH CONSUL MAKES REPLY
TO ATTEMPT TO ALARM NEU-
TRAL SHIPPERS.
The futility of the proclaimed German
submarine blockade was the theme of a
letter from C. Perceval. British consul at
Galveston, representing his majesty's con-
sul, W. Langley, of London, to F. W.
Smlthers of the British-Texas Association
of this city, received yesterday. Mr. Per-
ceval cited statistics to show that the ves-
sels lost as a result of ignoring the sup-
posed blockade have been too few to con-
sider as compared with the arrivals and
sailings of merchant vessels.
The letter Is as follows:
"Foreign Office, March 20, 1915. Sir: Re-
ports which have reached his majesty's
government indicate that the German gov-
ernment, having failed in direct attempts
seriously to injure Great Britain, are en-
deavoring. by the circulation of fanciful
statements through German consular of-
ficers with respect to the anticipated con*
sequences of the submarine warfare which
they are attempting to wage against mer-
chant shipping, to alarm neutral shippers
and frighten them into abandoning legiti-
mate trade by threats which cannot be
enforced.
"In these circumstances, Sir E; Grey
considers .it advisable that his majesty's
consular officers should draw attention to
the ineffectiveness of the threats employed,
as evidenced by the figures of losses to
shipping, both British and neutral, which
have occurred during the present year,
both prior and subsequent to February
is. the date from which the unrestricted
enforcement of the methods of warfare re-
ferred to was officially declared by the
German government to commence.
"1 am, therefore, directed t-> enclose
herewith tables showing respectively the
losses to British and neutral shipping and
the proportion, which these bear to the
total arrival* at and sailings from ports
of the I nlted Kingdom during tije period
covered. I am to request that >ou will
give all possible publicity to these fig-
ures. 1 am. sir, your most obedient, hum-
ble servant, W. LANGLEY,

A circular was sent, showing the hun-
dreds of arrivals and callings si.ice De
