Bathing Suits.

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
We have been led forsyears to believe
that Asbury Park and the adjoining re-
sorts of Ocean Grove and Bradley
Beach represented the ideal well-man-
nered and properly ly-conditioned summer
stopping place, but in many respects
these resorts leave much to be desired,
80 far as the department Of some Of the
people who go there is concerned
A recent example is shown In news
item from Asbury Park, telling of two
young women who appeared on the
beach in bathing costumes that were a
little out of the ordinary. This in itself
is not remarkable, but the following
part of the story is of interest because
1T illustrates to what extremes this
reputed well-mannered crowd will go:
"As the two young women headed for
the tunnel leading to the beach they
were followed by such throng that
the police had to interfere and hold the
mob at bay until the girls escaped"
While such rowdyism may be excused
respeotability, as its exists at Asbury
Park, it is doubtful il similar demon
stration would be permitted on beaches
that lay less claim to respectability, but
which. nevertheless, contain crowds
that do not need police attention when
an unconventional bathing suit APP

John d. Should Explain.

To tho Editor of the Evening Star:
John d. Rockefeller advises the poor
to go to the country, make home for
themselves, raise vegetables and poul-
try and thereby reduce the high cost
of living. A very brilliant idea! Only
one thing more-let good old John D.
tell the poor how to get to the country
without the price of railroad ticket
and how to get hold of some land, when
last months rent is still due.
It would be rather difficult for the
class Of people who are being helped
by the STARS Free Ice and Outing
Fund to go much further than the city
limits, but perhaps Mr.. Rockefeller can
tell them how to do it.
OF course, we know that the advice
was not meant for the penniless people,
but, nevertheless, there being so many
of them and the cost OF living being a
problem with them, as with their more
fortunate brothers, they, too, ought to
be told Of some way out of the
dilemma
Suppose that Mr.. Rockefeller and the
other gentlemen at the head of trusts
were to reduce the price Of the neces-
stiles of life that their corporations
control, what would happen? Would
the cost of living be as high then?
