the water. In view of the inadequate
public bathing beach facilities these
playground pools have been Of immense
benefit.
In the annual report Of the play
grounds department., just submitted, it
is recommended that every playground
be equipped with wading or swimming
pool, and furthermore that more grounds
be provided to give better accommoda-
tions to the children, who should find a
public play space close to their homes.
Every neighborhood should have one of
these spaces where the children can en-
gage in games and exercises without
playing i'll the streets, where they are
exposed to constant peril. These play
grounds in Washington have unques-
tionably saved many lives, not merely
in keeping the children out of acute
danger i'll the streets. but in the strength
ening of their physical health. Wash
ington's comparative immunity from in
fantile paralysis this summer may pos
sibly be attributed in some measure to
the excellent health of the little folks
resulting from their outdoor games on
the Fairgrounds.

The Public Fairgrounds.

a few years ago public Fairgrounds
were in the nature of an experiment
in Washington The success of the
Charlesbank playground in Boston was
urged as an indication OF the value of
these recreation spaces maintained al
municipal expense. but there was some
skepticism in Congress on the score of
the need and tic practicabil;:y of main
tanning grounds Of this character where
the children misht exercise. There can
b. no present doubt OF the value OF the
public pl2ygro md system. Washington
would not consent TO the abandonment
of the grounds that are now in existence
and would protest against any curtail-
ment of the activities. The value of
these recreation places has been unmis-
taxable Thousands Of children have
enjoyed the grounds, gaining unIeniably
in health, and at the same time learning
useful lessons. They lave been i'm
proved in Their conduct by playins un-
der supervision. They have gained men
tal benefits from tic instructions given
at the grounds During TIE fiscal year
ending June 80 lcst. the total attendance
at the Fairgrounds vas GHl7i. u daily

swimming pools have been added at
some Of the grounds, and the latter have
permitted the conduct Of contests that

SulZer and Tammany.

a supporter of the President, seeking
To draw sharp contrast, says that VII
liam Sulzer is supporting Hughes and
DR.. Eliot of Harvard. Wilson.
Still, if Mr.. Sulzer is to serve in this
matter. why not in fairness give him the
benefit of his full recordoj He sup
ported Mr.. Wilson four years ago, and in
turn was supported by Mr.. Wilson. The
vote which gave New York to Mr.. Will
son for the presidency made Mr.. Sulzer
the governor of the state. And the
power which marshaled that vote at the
polls was Tammany Hall
On March 4, 1913. in that great parade
up Pennsylvania avenue in honor of Mr..
Wilson's inauguration as President, Gov.
Sulzer, who had already taken hold at
home. rode horseback at the head of the
New York contingent; and New York
added much TO the impressiveness of the
spectacle. He never resembled Henry
Clay more strikinsly in his life. The
next day he was one of the most con-
spicuous of the callers at the White
House. and received. as others did,
very hearty welcome. New Workers,
with eyes on "p1ums,' were paying court
to the governor for a nod or letter in
the interests of their applications for
Office
Presently, Tho governor and Tammany
fell out The koslner accused the latter
Of disposition to boss him, and the
latter replied making accusations against
the former of very grave character.
Tammanr proved too much for the gov.
ernor He was impeached. and dis
missed from Office Since then he has
drifted politically. Last summer he was
defeated in an effort to secure himself
the nomination of the prohibitionists
for President. If he is now a Hughes
man it is by choice, so to say. He tried
to he sulzer man.
DR.. Eliot is not the proper citation
Why not Tammanys The interesting
point is that while Mr.. Su4zer has gone
over to Hughes, Tammany remains with
Wilson. There is some question as to
how ardently Tammany desires Mr.. Viii
sons reelection, but it is in the Wilson
column. and all democratic calculations
about New York are based upon the
hope, if not the assumption, that Tam
many will "tote fair" IF it does not j;
if it suiks or betrays ON election day,
the republicans will have walkaway.
If Mr.. Wilson wins, Tammany, as the
report goes, will be an honored guest
during the second term instead of the
outcast it has been during the first. If
Mr. Hughes wins, the widest of fancies
will not associate Mr. Sulzer with any
@pull' with the administration.

Another Poliomyelitis Theory.

Recently q western physician an
nuunced that lie had. he believed, hit
upon a possible agency for the cure of
infantile paralysis. i'll the use of a serum
obtained from The tonsils and adeDoids
of patients He had experimental with
small animals and had produced symp-
toms of the disease in them. which in
meteorological research is usually fol
lowed by the development of a curative
serum. Now comes Baltimore ply
sician with the statement that he has
found that the disease principle is
lodged in the intestines of the victim.
and that from that source may possibly
be obtained clue to the cause and per-
haps the cure Of the disease.
The divergence of these suggestions
for the treatment of the dreadful aff1ie-
tion that has swept this country during
the past few months and taken ter
rible toll in lives should not cause dis
couragement. 1t is rather sign of per-
sistent research. Eventually the secret
Of anterior poliomyelitis must he dis

working on the numerous cases under
their observation. It is possible that
both of the recently advanced theories
are correct, and that the disease prin-
ciple is lodged in and transmitted by
different organs Of the body. With so
many men of ability laboring to solve
this mystery and so much material at
hand for their Investigations it is in
credible that the disease should continue
long to battle science.

arises, Has Russia once more reached
the point Of exhaustion Of munitions?
This was the reason for the German ad-
vance into Poland and other parts Of
Russia little more than a year ago.
When the great sla7ic advance began
last June it was explained that Russia
was in receipt of enormous quantities Of
ammunition and guns, and had been
able to re-equip her armies and to re-
cruit them hack to full strength. I'm
less the winter is advancing at such u
rate as to check operations there must
be some cause not disclosed for the halt
ing of the Muscoyite advance The
Teutonie forces are certainly no stronger
than they were in June, but. if the Rus
sian reports are to be believed, are
greatly weakened by enormous captnres
of prisoners and by other losses. Rus
sia may have lost proportionately more
heavily, or may be at the end of NUM-
tions resources, or may be faced with
superior leadership, II Ine Climate mas
not vetoed active operations The ter
rain is no less favorable to Russian ad-
vances than was that over which the
ears armies swept in the summer.
Furthermore the entry o. Rumania into
the war has added an anti-Teutonic fac
tor which cannot but count in Rlrssia's
favor on the east front. The mystery
Of the checked campaign remains to be
solved

WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS DOING

One Of the most inconspicuous but
none the less interesting OF Uncle
SANS public works is the
Fisheries bureau of fisheries-a part
p of the Department of Com
merce. The bureau, al
though little has been said about it.
has been of much benefit to both the
fishermen and general public during
the past few years.
When an opportunity for the dcvel-
opment of a new fishery, based upon
the tilefish, was recognized the bu-
reau set out by advice and propaganda,
and actual temporary direction of the
fishery in all its phases, to initiate the
fishery and make It a success. The
result of its efforts is known to some
extent. The fish was practically un-
known to the market before 1915, but
within nine months after the first
movement by the bureau S.e3S, 900
pounds of tilefish, valued at $255.000.
had been marketed. An absolutely
new fishery was established, with con-
sequent benefit to fishermen, dealers
and the public. The efforts in pro-
noting the utilization of other waste
fish are also meeting with marked
success.
The bureau has also taken up the
problems Of such vital public interest
as a study OF the habits and propa-
"a tion of fishes that destroy mosquito
larvae, and are natures protectors OF
public health. The problem Of the de-
ed the bureau for years. has been
taken up by more comprehensive
and vigorous investigation than has
been attempted in the past. The hall
but fishery Of the northwestern states
has been directly aided by investiga-
tion and surveys which were promptly
productive Of results. The important
tuna fishing and packing interests OF
California have sought successfully
the bureaus aid. and Il careful and
extended investigation of the habits
OF the tuna has been in progress for
some months.
Looking to the benefit OF the salmon
fisheries of the western states and
Alaska, thorough study of the habits
and propagation of the salmon has
been pursued, and already, it is said
by officials, results are attained which
will materially aid both the states and
CATION and conservation of the salmon.
The propag cation of the fresh water
mussels. on which the pearl button
industry depends. has been put upon
a really effective basis by the aid Of
appropriations from Congress pro-
vidng means and personnel for prac-
tical field operations.
During the past few years fish
hatcheries have been constructed un-
der the supervision of the bureau at
Louisville. Ky, and Orangeburg, s.. c..
and others have been established at
fjngviile. Utah: Saratoga, Wyo., and
Block island, X. I. Work has been
begun On the new biological station at
