The Red Rock site Is located in
New Mexico in a position command
ing irrigable lands in Arizona on
the mesa south of Franklin, Green

The San Francisco dam site also
is in New Mexico, near Alma, and 1t
is proposed for development as. an
auxiliary to the San Carlos project.
The states part in these enter
prises is one of cooperation with

Subconscious Golf

Perennial jee1ers at the one ancient
and royal game will laugh long and loud
at the tidings of Ouimet's famous VIC
tory while ill, with temperature of 100
degrees. "Why shouldn't he?" they will
exclaim. "It's no game for a rational,
clear-eyed, athletic citizen; it takes
half-crazed, blinded devotee to do it at
ALL"
In which there is perhaps enough of
truth to reserve a candid reply Golf
does require peculiarly subtle and deli
cate coordination of muscles. AS any
number of saddened buffers know, it is
hopeless to try to remember the six
dozen rules for perfect swing while
making shot. 1t is almost impossible
to remember one rule. The right swing
comes either by grace of the gods or by
careful practice under the eye of a canny
professionalism a mixture of both.
There is plenty Of wisdom and judgment
needed in the selection of the club for
shot in getting the direction and dis
tance. There is minimum of conscious
control possible in the actual making of
shot. More than in any other game,
the essential part of golf, the swing, is
wholly instructive.
So, as far as the case of a super
golfer like Ouimet goes, therefore, it is
not difficult to conceive of his PLAYING
his shots superbly while suffering from
high fever. The higher brain centres
hn 1oI ,ol~
subconscious mind, all the stuff of in
stinct and border-line judgment which
we call guessing, often is unnaturally
keen. The hardest man to teach Golf to
is the self-conscious, very alert type,
who tries to watch and control everv
muscle in every swing. The obedent
youth who knows not how or why is
far easier subject. Probably some day
an ingenious metaphysical Scot will
commence teaching golf by hypnotlsm-
and then the last duffer will be salvaged
The extraordinary part of Ouimet's
performance was his standing of the
nervous strain. No game stretches
nerves as does golf; and even with the
marvellous balance of nerves that
Ouimet has often displayed it is hard to
understand how his generally weakened
physical condition did not cause him to
crack. That he could not repeat yester-
day is no wonder. His match against
Evans, futile as it was in the final re-
suit, will always rank as one of the
greatest feats of courage in athletic
history.

tions Of it-interpretations which our
government has upheld In recent years
in dealing with Hayti, the Dominican Re-
public and Nicaragua. Article x, with
out a reservation, will transfer the
right, asserted heretofore by the United
States, of protecting the territorial in
tegrity of the Latin-American nations
against European or other non-Ameri-
can aggression to the league of ma
tions. The ambiguous Monroe Doctrine
reservation inserted in the second draft
Of the covenant therefore measured a
partial recession from the theory on
which Article x had been constructed.
The Presidents contribution to- the
history of the article is therefore highly
enlightening. 1t is regrettable that SIM
liar contributions to the history Of other
sections Of the treaty are withheld be-
cause Of the pledges Nof confidence ex-
changed among the Paris treaty makers

Local Daylight Saving

Responding to the protests Of the
farmers or of persons who claimed to
speak for them, Congress has repealed
the daylight saving act. The only dis
coverable saving brought about by war
legislation has been wiped out.
The agitation which led to the repeal
of the law was largely Fictitious. But
Congress is extremely sensitive to such
propaganda. The daylight saving
scheme is dead for 1920, so far as Fed
eral authority for reconstituting it is
concerned.
But if the public In the cities and
manufacturing states is anxious to con-
tinue to enjoy the benefits Of the inn
proved daylight schedule, the way is
open to do so. The city Of Cleveland
used to have daylight saving law Of
its own. Any other city or state can
have one. The clock may be turned
ahead an hour in spring wherever the
convenience of a community makes such
q step desirable Certain difficulties
will have to be overcome when such a
regime is not statewide But with the
strong desire Of all indoor workers to
achieve an extra hour of afternoon SUM-
light, the right of vast majority to
such an alleviation may be easily as
serted.
The agencies which brought about the
passage of the Calder law. should not
disband in encouragement. If they get
to work they can keep considerable
part of the population an hour ahead Of
the sun next summer.

This Is
Change

People outside of Germany who are con-
tlnually telling US that it is the same old
Germany, that nothing has really changed
Will find in the course of time and cooling
passion that very much has changed. OF
course, 1T is possible that radical revolu-
tlon will still sweep over Germany and
wreck this constitution before it gets fairly
into operation. But, barring that eventual
lty, it is certain that the constitution must
go very far toward unifying the country.
1t would seem that all occasion for con-
tlct OF authority as between national and
state governments has been removed. This
has been done by exalting the nations power
and relegating the states to a secondary
position by making them mere Glands"
AS DR.. Preuss said in one of his speecbes
on the constitutions: Estate sovereignty in
the sense Of the old German Empire no
longer exists" And as a Bavarian Catholic
leader, Helm, said: "The constitution means
the deathbed of the individual states" Such
is the present aspect of affairs, and it is TO
be expected that the centralizng tendency
will rather grow stronger in time than
weaker.
New-York tribune., 1919-08-22
Filling the Little
German Pitchers

Thus one paragraph of the constitution
provides that the teaching in all the
schools shall "aim at personal and civil eff
cheney, love for work and moral culture
upon a German racial basis, in the spirit
of conciliation between the nations" All
most praiseworthy aims, but it is certainly
a feat in constitution making to put these
stipulations into the fundamental law of
the land.
The crucial point in the educational para
graphs was the question of religion in the
schools. The Socialists had long ago COM
mitted themselves to the idea Of wholly
secular schools; with great vehemence did
they oppose the teaching of religion in the
public schools by the clergy, and the in
spection Of the schools by the local clergy
was also stoutly opposed The Catholics,
on the other hand, demanded all these
things, and in Prussia they made common
cause with the old Conservatives in en-
forcing religious instruction upon the
children of free thinkers against the pro-
tests Of their parents.

The Secret Treaty Mystery
At the White House on Tuesday oc.
Cured the following colloouy:


Senator Borah--I wish to ask some
questions IN regard to the secret treaty.
l should like to know when the
tirst knowledge came to this government
with reference to the secret treaties be-
tween Japan, Great Britain, Italy and
France concerning the German possess
sions in Shantung.
The President thought that Secre-
tary Lansing had looked that up and told
you. / can only reply from my own
knowledge, and my own knowledge came
after | reached Paris.
Senator Borah-We did get a replv from
Mr.. Lansing to the same effect, so far as
he was concerned. When did the secret
treaty between Great Britain, France and
the other nations of Europe with ref
erence to certain adjustments in Europe
first come to your knowledge? Was that
after you had reached Paris, also?
series of understandings were disclosed
to me for the first time then.
Senator Borah-Then we had no knowl-
edge of these secret treaties so far as
our government was concerned until YOU
reached Paris?
The Presldent-Not unless there was
information at the State Department of
which | know nothing.
On March 4, 1918, replying to a ques-
ton in the House of Commons as to
whether copies of all treaties, secret or
public, and all other memoranda Of other
agreements to which Great Britain had
become party since August a, 1914, had
been communicated to President Will
son, Foreign Secretary Balfour replied:
"Presldent Wilson is kept fully informed
by the Allies
Tuesdays statement of the President
and Mr.. Balfour's are not compatible.
except on the theory that the President
was amazingly uninformed. The world
discussed the secret treaties, including
the one touching the Far East, a wear
before the President went to Paris. Their
contents were described and in manv in
stances their alleged texts were published.
Yet the President told Mr.. Borah chat
until produced at Paris he did not know
of them.
The matter is battling. 1t is scarcely
conceivable that the State Department
kept back information so important. But
even if it did it would seem as if some
echo OF the "secret treaty" controversy
would have penetrated the seclusion of
the White House. Indeed, when one
reads the Lansing-Ishii votes which were
exchanged in November, 1917, with their
recognition of Japan's special position in
the Orient, it is difficult to resist the con-
clusion that the writers then knew of the
understanding which had been reached
touching the disposition of the German
estate in the Far East.

Catholics ard
Socialists Control

AS the Socialists and Catholics now
jointly in control of the government it
became necessary for them to adopt some
compromise between these sharply opposed
i6eas. The solution found took the follow
ing shape: The parents Of each city or
commune will have the right to decide be-
tween secular and religious schools, and
their vote shall determine the character
Of the schools there. But this decision is
not to conflict in any way with the wishes
Of parents, of teachers either. Thus,
if religious schools are decided upon no
teacher be forced to teach religious
subjects against his own choice, nor are
the children of dissenters or free thinkers
to be compelled to attend the classes in
religion against the wish of their parents.
1t is also stipulated that where religious
schools adopted they either may be
simultaneous" i. G., Protestant, Catholic and
Jewish children attend the same school
but take their religious instruction sepa-
rately, or where the population is very
strongly of one denomination the sole
religious instruction may be of that de-
nomination. In such cases, however "pri-
vate public schools may be established
b2 small minorities; but guarantees must
be given to keep them up to the standard
of the regular schools, and they must have
the sanction of the national authorities.
Thus the constitution abolshes two of
tho most repellent features of the old
Prussian school system--compelling teach
ers who are wholly Indifferent to all religion
or are even free thinkers, to give instruction
in religion and forcing religious instruction
upon children whose parents are wholly
opposed to it.
In short, there will be freedom instead
OF compulsion, personality will be re-
spected and religion will be placed upon
voluntary basis-the only basis where it
can have salutary effect for all concerned
That is a long step away from the old
Prusslan system of forcing religion down
the threats of unwilling subjects with the
aid Of police and judges
This incomplete sketch of some of the
leading centralizing features of the new
constitution will suffice to show that the
new Germany will be very different from
the old.

Pay and Smile

A correspondent of The Tribune, Mr..
G. l.. Edison, who signs himself ga
Member of the Public" protests against
buying the railroads with the public's
money and then turning them over to
the railroad employees for one hundred
years under an arrangement by which
the employees, whenever they feel they
and paralyze all business if the sum is
not promptly furnished.
The tenderfoot in the mining camp
was doing his best to dance, but his tor
menter was not satisfied with merely
this. "Smile! Don't only move your
legs. Smile!" he heard shouted at him.
Similarly the public is not only to pay,
but is expected to grin; is to empty it's
pockets and look pleasant at the same
time
But this member of the public will
not find that smiling will be enough to
save him in Plumb days. He impu-
IDENTIFY suggests that if employees would
acquire the railroads they should pay
A~A NAASAAA' AAO ASUiCo ClldL IL would
require only $4,000 apiece from the
100000 employees, and submits that if
the old railroad owners have made huge
sums, it should be easy to get as much
as $500 year profit to pay interest.
Our correspondent overestimates.
The amiable Mr.. Plumb has indicated
that it is his benevolent purpose to
squeeze the stock valuation down to S4,-
O0O,000,000 and to allow the bonded
debt of $4,000, 100000 to stand. So the
employees would need to chip in only
$4,000 each. If group can gain the
privilege of fixing its own wages for
this sum it is manifestly dirt cheap.
Who couldn't pry up his compensation
more than 5000 a year with such a
jimmy in his hands?
1t is the business of members of the
public to confine themselves to the duty
of paying bills. They should not in
trude on discussions of affairs of state.
They are members of the publc-that's
all; and no union of them has yet been
organized.

constitution; in fact, there is hardly any
limit at which the nation must withhold its
hand in shaping and controlling the eco
nomic affairs of the people.
In the sphere of schools and education,
too, the nation is henceforth to have su
premacy, whereas it was wholly reserved
for the states under the old constitution
The constitution lays down the general
principles to which the "lands" must con-
form in the management of their schools
These general principles remarkably
comprehensive, for a constitution. In fact,
the educational paragraphs show that the
tendency exists in Germany as in
America, where many of the states have
overladen their constitutions with matters
which several generations ago were left by
common agreement for regulation by legis-
lation

The Small Gouger

For ten days the Attorney General has
been Illuminating against the big dealers
in foodstuffs. His idea apparently was
that it was good politics to make a
double appeal-to combine the prejudice
against those who do business on large
scale and the indignation against prices,
while not irritating small tradesmen.
But the Attorney General has the
grace to change his tactics. The bill to
check profteering before the Agricultu-
raj Committee Of the House exempted
from its penalties dealers whose turnover
is less than 100000 year. But at the
request of the Attorney General the ex-
emption has been stricken out. In it's
amended form only farmers are to have
"a full legal right to charge as they
please. Chairman Haugen is proceed
ing on the theory that no farmer ever
prohteers. 1t is the farmers right to
get all he can, and this right is not to be
abridged.
The big dealer is under constraints to
be decent that do not normally apply to
his small rivals. He has had experience
with undertaking, and when he is not
good he is cautious. Moreover, the
whole theory of big business is profits
through a maximum of sales, whereas
the small dealer, operating in re-
stricted field, naturally seeks to squeeze
maximum profits out of his neighborhood.
So the harassed consumer fees to the
chain store when he finds its prices
lower.
Profiteering has occurred on all levels,
but he would be reckless of statement
who would assert that there is any great
presumption of the innocence Of the little
retailer. All pro6teers should look alike
to the law, and it is no time to add to
the body of class legislation.

Staff Correspondent

ERLIN, July 21.--The German Consti-
ID tuition has not taken just the shape
in some most vital matters that had
been hoped for by most of tho progressive
and liberal minded people of Germany.
Quite early in the process of its making
it ran foul of the old snag Of states rights,
or, as the Germans call it, Particulars
DR.. Preuss, the author of the first draft
of the constitution and its shaper through
all its various vicissitudes, had very radical
ideas as to sweeping away states rights
and making Germany practically one great
unified state. Preuss wanted, for example,
to make several states out Of Prussia and
to combine number Of the smaller states
and Independent cities into larger bodies,
disregarding old historical lines of division
He was ruled down, however, and the
states are to retain their present limits
or are only to make such changes as they
choose of their own will to make. One such
change in fact, is now being worked out
the consolidation Of the seven little Thiir-
-ingian states into one state along with
certain strips Of Prussian territory that
dovetail into those states.
