RECREATION CENTRES.

To the Editor of The Tri bune.
Sir. In talking with the most public
spirited OF the young men in crowded
netghborhoods we find that the greatest
needs of such neighborhoods are places
for wholesome recreation. These young
men viii tell you that their small brothers
can be kept out Of trouble if there is a
gymnasium or a playground to which they
can go.
Greater New York has increased about
$50 0O0 I'm the last year This means still
more crowding of the streets and more
reed of opening recreation centres for the
children. over one hundred school play
grounds can be thrown open al once in
the afternoon II the city authorities so

public schools have proved to be a great
success T. I'D a dozen more OF these play
grounds should be opened. The evening
recreation centres are found to have as
great power of attraction as low dance
halls. and the young people should be

centres one of the last centres which
was opened began with an attendance OF
nine hundred The truest economy means
the greatest possible use Of the public

4rJ4TORS on EXHIBITION.

When the Belmont Park Tournaments
comes to 4 close the world will doubtless
have learned something it did not know
before about aviation, As in automobile
races the contests just begun will afford
instructive trials of rival machines and
rival pilots. Speed and other qualities
in an airship depend mainly on its de-
sign and the power Of its motor. Sktl
in handling is not without Importance,
especially where the competing machines
are pretty evenly matched. Yet 1t does
not seem probable that this can materi-
allv obscure the merits and demertts OF
the aerOplanes about to be tested The
outcome of the meeting as a whole
will be awaited with the greater interest
because both foreign and American
builders will be represented with ma
chimes which promise TO make tetter
showing than their earlier products.
Scarcely less significant is the array
Of aviators who will participate IN the
contests. Many Europeans who have
won fame in the last few months, but
who have never previously visited this
country. will appeal to the popular in
stincr of hero worship. An exceptional
opnortunity will also be afforded TO
watch the exploits Of Americans whose
names and faces are a little better
known to their fellow countrymen.
Never until now has so large a number Of
adopts in the art Of flying entered the
lists at a single meeting Of this kind
II is somewhat curious TO note now
a piece of mechanism which at one time
promised to have an exclusively military
use is now largely given over to dlf-
ferent kind of service. Experience with

opinion. expressed years ago, that the
fiving machine would furnish "the most
reckless kind of sport" Whether it viii
ever be fUPe from that reprOach IS eX-
tremelv uncertain. Perhaps improved
construction and the display Of increased
caution in handling the aerOplane may
lead TO such q cOnsummatiOn. but at
present there are no signs OF it. The
deaths of Delagrange. Rolls. Chavez ana
half a dozen other aviatOrs are too re-
cent to encourage much hope for the
future Fortunate it will be if the Bel
mont Park meeting ends without addi-
tions 10 the list Of victims.

Two items Of news appearing simuita-

tics of the two most pOpuous nations

the general rate of the whole country
was only u. the lowest on record IN

On the same day appeared Official re-
ports telling that the deaths from choiefa
in Russia were being numbered not mere
" by thousands. as we said not long ago
but ry scores of thousands, with a grim
possibility that they might soon he recK-
oned bv hundreds of thousands. Such
mortality must have an appreciabie ef-
feet upon the yearly death rate OF even
so vast a 4atiOn as Russia But even
without Al Ile NltdI oloblSIA~0 Va
empire present a melancholy contrast 10
those of America. For in European Rus
sia the yearly death rate IN recent years
has ranged from % to 81 in the thou
sand. or lust about double that OF last
wear in the United States The fecun-
dity of the Russian people is greater
than that Of Americans, and so the
natural increase of population In that
country is still considerable But the
mortality is Il tragic reminder of the
backwardness Of Russia in some or the
nrime essentials of civilized society.
This contrast between the two coun-
tries Is not cause for vain self-eXaltation
on orr part nor for censoriOus cOndemna-
tion of Russia. It Is cause for our sin
cerp gratitude and also for continued
and increase efforts still further to
protect human life from preventabie HIS
So far as Russia is concerned, II should
surely be cause for an awakening ana
for vigorous efforts by the new constitu-
tionaI government of that country TO
imnrove the standard of life among the
paople. and thus to give them greater
security from those destructive scourges
which in this twentieth century should
not prevail to any considerable extent
in any civilized land.
