The Two Hard Nuts.

Ing In Baltimore about the American
merchant marine:
III we have wisdom and sporting
blood We will carry commerce TO the
uttermost parts of the world and barter
with man under every sky. Never again
should the United States be guilty OF the
folly OF trusting practically all Of It's
world commerce to foreign bottoms"

how the dreams of the Danielses and
the Hurleys may be turned into profit.

sane optimlsts connected with ships

method of overcoming these handi-

compared with It's cost in Europe.
.. The cost Of manning ships, as
compared with its cost in Europe and
In Asia.
There are many other problems {:
the obtaining Of capital, the decision

an ambition to be the first aviator to
fly across the Atlantic 1t gives prom
Use that this feat will soon be tried.
The chief Of the Army Department
OF Military Aeronautics IS not Il
dreamer; thirty years In the army
makes a man pretty practical, and
General KENLY has seen In the war
just about whit an airplane can and
can't do.
The aviation chief Is not going 10
leap before he looks. for it is au-
nounced that the great effort will not
be put forth until successful nonstop
flights have been made between New
York and San Francisco. If the 3, 191
miles between here and the coast
capital can be traversed without stop
ping, then it should be easy to cross
from st. Johns to ireland, or from
New York TO Lisbon.
The really sentimental journey for
the first airplane crossing the Allan
tic would be flight from Watlings
Island to Palos, beginning on August
3 or else ending on October II.

Keep the Claim Agents Out!

The Government has been singu-
larry unfortunate in the misunder-
standings that have been occasioned
by the documents sent out to soldiers
and sailors by the Bureau of War
Risk Insurance. Among others, the
blanks to be filled out with aftidavits
proving dependency on the insured
man have given rise to much uneasi-
ness because they have been inter-
preted in some cases to mean that un-
less dependency can be proved pay
ments may be withheld.
This is not the case. The blanks
are designed to reveal whether the
persons to whom they are addressed
are entitled to compensation from the
Government in addition to the insur-
ance. In the Epening Post Of yes
terday an authority In the War Risk
Insurance Bureau explained the mat
ter thus:
These blanks are being sent out to
all PERSONS iailleu ho i'Al oA hHi III
order that they may know that they
are entitled to claim additional compen-
sation IL they are actually dependent.
These blanks are not TO be considered
In any light AS impairing the contract
which the Government made with the
soldier
"All claims for insurance will be set
tied at the rate Of $3.50 monthly per
$4,000 OF insurance. and 1t will be paid
in all cases to the benehc!aries irrespec-
tive OF their present sources of income"
This being the case. the War Risk
Insurance Bureau should make the
situation plain by means Of a circular,
written in such manner that the
purpose of the blank cannot be mis-
understood. even by n woman unac-
customed to business transactions and
shaken by the loss Of father, hus-
band or son. Not only Is It the duty
Of the Government TO protect the ben.
eficiaries from unea siness- but the
mlsinterpretatlon put on the circular
offers opportunity for claim agents to
convince citizens OF the necessity OF
employing them. These gentry exact
heavy toll, and any system that
does not exclude them from the bene-
fits of the insurance fund deserves the
severest condemnation.

The petted debutantc Of the New

the object of unlimited entertain
ment, has again had to face year
meagre in the delights once consid-
cred indispensable for her proper
introduction to the world. Whether
all these former attentions and cour-
tesies to the young woman on the
threshold of social life will be seen

another year to show. There have
been many changes TO turn the

But youth and gayety and opportu-

OUR STATE POLICE.
Good Words for the Mounted Consta-
bles Of the Rural Districts.

To TIE EDITOR OF THE SuS--Sir: In
the opinion o. unbiased observers the
State mounted police have already, eI-
pressing il IN the vernacular, made good.
The constabulary was designed 10

cost Of these III regulated and ineffl-
Gent bodies has exceeded many times
that q, maintaining the existing con-
stabulary, which not unfairly may be
rated at 100 per cent. efficient.
Property owners and law abiding citi-
zens generally will do well to consider
that never hefore throughout the
sparsely settled territory OF tho State,
It's small rural communities. &c, have
the means been provided, as represented
by the existing State constaoulary, for

erty and person. and for tho probable
