September. even in the most northerly
latttudes.
No Fixed Dates Of Call.

cedure OF mobilization into canton

{ Radical Element a. Half Measure.

London, Aug. 7.-Onicial announce
ment was made at the admiralty to-
night that Admiral Sir Cecil Burney.
second sea lord. had been replaced by
Vice Admiral Roslyn Wemyss- Allen
Garrett Anderson, hitherto viiue Chair
man Of the fleet committee, succeeded
Sir Eric Campbell Geddes. the new
first lord Of the admiralty, as controller
OF naval construction.
The changes in the British admiralty
are attracting much attention and are
interpreted as the first step in re-
organization which it is supposed Sir
Eric Campbell Geddes, first lord Of the
admiralty. was appointed to carry out.
People Demand Offensive Spirit.
In quarters where the existing ad-
miralty methods are regarded as un-
satisfactory, the present step Is de-
nounced as e procrastinatory half
measure" and 1t is declared the change
ought to have been SO complete as to
rgfve the country resolute and ener-
get1c admiralty permeated by an Of
fensive spirit.
There Is no Implication Of incapacity
against Admiral Sir. Cecil Burney.

Official statements are taken to mean
that the appointment Of Vice Admiral
Sir Roslyn Wemyss will result in the
rearrangement Of the duties Of the sec
ond sea lord Of the admiralty. who will
be relieved Of detailed administrative
work connected with the personnel OF
the fleet.
This il interpreted as meaning that
the second sea lord will not be tram

can handle, but win be associated more
closely than was his predecessors with
the preparation Of war plans.

Another change in the admiralty Is
the removal OF Sir William Graham
Green from the permanent secretary

shin In the ministry Of munitions. Sir
Williams departure from the admir-
alty is regarded as Of considerable Inn
portance, as the post OF permanent
secretary. which he has held since 1911,
always has been largely responsible
for the continuing Of admiralty tradi-
tion and policy. It Is this continuity
which, is regarded by many as most
dangerous factor in that it hinders
initiative and adaptability to current
needs.

Time for a housekeeping

Whether or not the Darcy-Dillon prize
fight was planned for knockout Gov
ernor Whitman has done well to order the
boxing commission to stop It, Perhaps the
boxing situation in this city has gone so
low that it could not be hurt by this eX-
ploitation of an individual who ran away
from his country when needed for mill
tary service, but there is still no reason
why the people of the community should
have him Haunted in their faces and con-
tribute to the fattening Of his bankron.
SO long as the State of New York re-
mains in partnership with the prizefight
promoters it ought occasionally to eXer-
else a veto power over their actions in
the interest of decency and good taste, and
that is about what the Governor has made
his appointees do.
However desirable boxing and boxing
exhibitions may be as d sport, there could
be nothing in the sporting world more un-
desirable than the present status of the
boxing game. Its history under the Fraw-
ley law. from the first fight in Madison
Square Garden, with its attendant scan
dals, up to the graft charges against a
member of the present Athletic Commits
sion, has been unsavory. The law has been
a joke to which its administrators have
contributed; the conditions permitted by
the laws maladministration have been in
decent and disgusting. Governor Whit
man showed he realized that when he
urged short time ago the wiping out Of
the so-caled boxing commission The
Legislature should not let undue consider
alton for the future of the sport Of box
ing prevent action on that suggestion. IF
boxing decent boxing-cannot exist with
out such conditions as now surround it, it
has no more claim to public consideration
than has horseracing when supported by
professional gambling.

Citizen School Teachers Only

There is reason to be glad that the
Board of Education has adopted the rec
ommendation, made some time ago. to re-
quire that every person hereafter applying
for teachers license must show himself
a citizen of the United States The only
exception to this rule is to be teacher OF
modern languages, who must, If not citl-
zen. show evidence Of declaration Of in
tent to become citizen before receiving
a license.
The board might well have gone further
and made this rule retroactive. as The
Tribune urged at the time it was sug-
gested. although it is possible that such
action is unnecessary, in view of the re-
cent decision of the Appellate Division,
Second Department, that an alien IS not
legally competent TO hold office under the
city government. One thing is certain
at this particular stage Of affairs it is not
desirable or wise to have the instruction
of the youth of this city intrusted to any
individual who has not thought enough Of
the spirit and institutions OF America to
renounce allegiance to some foreign power.
put only Americans on guard in the
schools-that is good rule at any time,
and particularly good rule now.
