The American Holy Alliance

"The World" tries to prove that Mr..
Lansing's attempt to introduce the prin-
ciples of the Holy Alliance into our Latin
American diplomacy is not an innovation
Our neighbor says that President Wilson
announced a policy of this sort in an adj
dress on March II, 1918, and that that
policy "has been adhered to with con-
sistency" during his administration.
In 1913 Mr.. Wilson said: eve can have
no sympathy with those who seek to seize
the power of government to advance their
own personal interests and ambitions"
That is a laudable sentiment But 1t was
not interpreted at the time (and could
not be properly Interpreted as a notice
that the United States was going to set
eside the American precedents governing
recognition of de facto governments and to
lay down the novel principle that any
government coming into power through
revolution or in some other irregular man
ner should be debarred from recognition
forever thereafter.
No such rule was established or adj
hered TO by this administration. A revo-
lutionary government seized the reins Of
power in Peru, and President Wilson rec
ognized it. In Mexico he has recognized
another de fdcto revolutionary govern
ment-that Of General Carranza. If Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Bryan had had their way
they would have recognized Pancho Villa,
IN even more avowed insurrecto leader
and military adventurer. Mr.. Wilson has
all along defended his policy of non-inter-
ference in Mexico in defence of American
lives and property on the ground that the
Mexicans were entitled to carry through
their revolution. 1t was their sacred
right, he maintained again and again, to
determine in that manner their form of
government.
"The World" asserts that Mr.. Lansing's
Holy Alliance dogma has been applied in
Hayti and the Dominican Republic. We
cannot see any trace of its application in
these two countries. The United States
did not send troops into Hayti and the
Dominican Republic to restore a native
government overthrow by revolution. 1t
sent them in TO impose American protec-
torates on the existing governments.
Hayti, for all practical purposes, has been
converted into dependency of the United
States. The Dominican Republic will soon
be converted into a similar dependency.
As for Cuba, whose case "The World" also
mentions, it has been for some time under
the political protection Of the United
States. We derive from a special treaty
our right TO say what existing government
in Cuba we will support or what reyolu-
tionary government we will outlaw.
But with Costa Rica and the other in
dependent Latin-American states the
situation is different. There are no indi-
cations Ms yet that the administration is
going 10 impose proteetorate on Costa
Rica. If IL isn't, the United States has no
good ground for abridging Costa Rican
sovereignty 10 the extent OF saying that
il will not recognize as legitimate the de
focto government which has just been es-
tabIished in that country without bloodshcd
and with the apparent consent and ap-
proya Of the people.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Here I've been practising fancy steps
for years, getting ready to strike Florrie
Ziegfeld for job in the Merry Merry. Now
along comes this dame, Helen Ellsworth, with
letter to your paper about chorus girls rid
ing in subways and living at islst Street.
DO you mean TO tell me that all this stuff
about millionaires and limousines after the
show Is all bunk?
Please give poor girl the straight dope on
this chorus job, for you know, I'd rather cut
the big city time. II it's the subway-suburban
proposition, and do my riding back home on
the Toonsrville Trolley that Meets All the
Trains. MAIZE B0LAIGED.

Who Will Finance the Crops?

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In The Tribune of February 10 head
lire reads Famine Prices Here if Spring
Crop Is Not Big"
Being farmers wife, | would ask-after a
poor crop last year-where is the small
farmer to get the ready cash to finance the
bumper crop to be raised? Seeds, fertilizers.
tools, hired holp--if you can find any 10 hire
Every small farmer is important TO the con-
sumner. And who Is to give financial encour-
agement? Surely not those who talk of max
ing two blades OF grass grow where one grew
before because they should know that il
means time money and strength TO make tive
/ otatoes instead Of one. GRACE BUELL.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: II the New York Central Railroad is
really as sincere in its plan to improve River
side Park as it claims 10 be, why is il not
willing to sink its tracks enough so that the
view OF the Hudson River may not be OBJ
strueted or marred at any point in the park ?
Eloctrifcation would eliminate the smoke and
noise nuisance Such plan would save much
existing park land and many beautiful trees

ASSISTS PEOPLE TO FORGET
In Times Of Gloom and Depression
Populaee Crave Diversion TO
Break Monotony.

Someone has opened n discussion
rs to what effect actual war would
have upon baseball interest In the U.
s. A., says New York Tribune. The
affirmative and the negative here each
have good arguments. War news and
war interest would, of course, far out
shadow any sporting news or sporting
interest. and In that way have de-
pressing effect. On the other side Of
the hill, the populace In times of gloom
and depression always has seemed to
crave some diversion to break the mo-
nOtOny of constant anxiety. As proof
Of this last statement, Toronto and
Montreal last season In the lnternn-
tional league had very good seasons
despite the fact that Canada has been
head high into this war since the start.
Sport In time of war Is nothing like
as important Il matter rs II Is In time
of peace. But II still has its uses as
diversiOn-as a section Of the program
that is cast In lighter vein. For that
reason sport will not be shelved by any
means. No nation, even In war times,
Is going into sackcloth and ashes UNI
less Il Is being crushed or pressed to
the limit. Those not actually engaged
will stick to old habits of diversion,

tobacco more than ut any other period
Of his life.

HITS WESTERN LEAGUE HARD
Sunday Lid on ADJUSTMENTS In Iowa 10
Serious Blow to Baseball In
hawkeye State.

The clamping down of the lid on all
amusements In Iowa on Sunday
through the state "blue laws" may
prove serious to the Western league,
writes Judge In Omaha Bee. Sunday
is the big day In every city In the
league. 1t Is, In fact, about the only
day I'm the week that large crowds turn
out to witness the diamond clashes In
the Zehrung loop and the existence
Of every club In the league practically
depends upon its Sunday attendance.
Each club. for instance, draws ten Sun
day dates Mt home. An average attend
ance probably would be 5000 game
unless some city IL so unfortunate ms
to lose several Sundays through bad
weather, in which case the average
would be lower. This means 10000
persons and the total attendance of all
other games during the year will not
greatly exceed this number, II Mt all.
II Sioux City and Des Moines are pre-
vented from playing Sunday ball, Meth
err club Is likely to last long. They
can't afford to lose 10000 admissions.
The very existence Of the Western
league Is unquestonably likely to be
threatened seriously unless these
clubs are allowed to play on Sunday.

opinion of Jimmy McAleer, the vet
eran manager.
Eve have some great players now,
but / can't see where the best of them
have anything on the boys Of long
ago" he said.
"Show me, in any club, the equal of
Buck Ewing-a catcher who could do
everything that Schalk and such top
liners do today, and who could beat
the ball to death year after year. Show
me the equal of Jimmy Collins on third
base. l think he was the greatest third
baseman that ever lived. Balls that
bound badly bother all third basemen
now, and used to bother all but Collins
he bounded with the ball.
"Whcre are the shortstops now that
can both field and hit like Jennings,
Lang and Dahlen? Or any second
basemen better than McPhee or
PETER! Or anybody who could bunt
like Brown or Keller or hit the old
ball us hard as DelehantyT

MACK WANTS GOOD PITCHING
Consistent Work on Mound Will Make
Athletics Greater Factor In
Race for Pennant.

"Give us good pitching-nOt the best,
but just good, consistent work on the
mOund-and they'll have to look out
for u.s."
That's the way Connie Mack sized
up his rejuvenated Athletics.
"We've reached the point where we
are likely to do anything. We have a
club that Is peculiar. 1t Is composed
of men who can do many things" said
Mack. Everyone of them is differ
ent. They're not recognized stars yet,
but they can hit and they can run the
bases, and the pitchers are finding out
how to pitch. They'll make runs, and
they'll hit most any kind Of pitching.
All / need is good, steady work on the
mound"
Mack said he was depending great
deal on the work of Bush, Meyers.
Johnson and Noyes.

WOOD HAS MAsTERLY RECORD
Among Those Who Have Pitched 100
Games or More Smokey Joe Ranks
Next to Alexander.

There Is small wonder eXtant over
Cleveland's interest In the pitching
condition of SmOke-Ball Joe Wood.
If you ever care to examine the rec
ords you will find that among those
who have pitched 100 or more major
league games Wood ranks next to
Alexander in winning effectiveness.
Given pitcher of the type back in
shape, and Cleveland would not only
be a pennant contender, but a very
stout pennant possibility. The Wood
Speaker combination made the Red
Sox invincible in 1912, and the same
pair could very easily make the In
dams decidedly annoying in 1917.
