AMERICAN NAMES.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: In
reference to the communication OF
Charles l. Kenyon. formerly Kannof-
sky, where the gentleman argues in
favor of the change OF his family name
on the ground that the appellation has
developed into o misnomer due to vari-
GUS marriages and intermarriages. and
that no person has any patented right
on any particular name. beg to state
that an Anslo-Saxon name does not
signify a stronger Americanism than
the names indicating French, Dutch.
Scandinavian or German origin.
While no one has a right to dictate the
permanency Of names. yet I am inclined
to hold with the able jurist who refused
company can properly assume the title
of Ford or Packard for its products A
man who is a truly born Kenyon does
not like to have others suspect him Of
a possible Kannofsky derivation. After
all. what is in a name? A person who
men is respected without regard to
the name he bears. A family with a
record OF the Morgans or tho Wander
bits or Cabots could make almost any
cognomen a badge of honor.
You never hear of a Frenchman or
a Dutchman or an Italian or a Scandi-
navian changing his name.

Baltimore.
Special Despatch TO THE Sun.

BALTIMORE, June Sherman mad.
goods continue to arrive in Baltimore
despite the fact that many protests have
been put in record all over the country
that the goods were diverted from New
York because of opposition to then,
there and that the War Mothers OF
Maryland wanted to initiate the Boston
Tea Party by holding doll party" in
Baltimore.
The Dutch steamship AndiJk arrived
yesterday bringing about s, 900 crates Of
German dolls, toys. chlnaware and
orockery. This IL the second cargo TO he
delivered in Baltimore, the steamship
Sloterdytk having brought $500 crates
two weeks ago. The Sloterdyjk is now
on her way back to Rotterdam for mora

tableware were bought in 1914 by Borg

When the war broke out they were sent
to Rotterdam, Holland, for shipment 20
the United States. but attempts TO COM
pete the shipments were frustrated
when the United States got into the war.
Now when Americans are SUPPOSE
to be no longer the enemies OF the Ger
mans the shipments are being completed.
The SloterdyJk. when she came here,
brought a cargo valued at $75O,0O0, and

Itinerary for q Prince.

We trust that the Prince of Wales,
when he comes here in August,
will not content himself with the
prim pleasures of Newport and u
formal visit to cities like New York,
Philadelphia, Boston and Washington.
A motor trip across the country would
bring him into real touch with the
United States. If he could see the
corn and oats In Illinois and Iowa, the
wheat and rye in Kansas and the
Dakotas, the barley in California and
Minnesota, he would know perfectly
how America was able to feed millions
of soldiers.
In Texas the Prince could see the
greatest Of cotton crops and the
home Of Colonel HOUSE. IN Michi-
gan he could see where the best fur
niture of the Elizabethan period is
made and why HENRY FORD is. In
Kentucky he could gaze upon miles of
tobacco plants and scores of ruined
distilleries.
Surely the Prince will visit Niagara
Falls as his grandfather did sixty
years ago. No Blondin will be there,
but any number of obllging avlators
will fly across the gorge for his edif1-
cation, and natives will point out the
last of the dying race of robber hack
drivers.
When the Prince comes to New
York he will see some of the buildings
which Prince ALBERT saw, like Trinity
Church and City Hall and Cooper
Union and a few more. He will see
things that grandpa never saw here,
such as hat check boys and efficiency
experts. Now is the time, Prince, to
see America, the country that invented
electric lights, airships and the Mon
roe Doctrine. Try your hand ut the
fascinating sport Of trying to get a
telephone connection and let Mr.. Bur

Building Up n New Russia.

A definite answer from Admiral
KoLCHAK, the head Of the Omsk Gov
eminent, to the proposal of the allied
nations has at last been received by
the French Foreign Office, according
to n despatch from Paris. Earlier
statements regarding the recognition
of the Omsk Government were to the
effect that the principal considera-
tons were the character of the con-
troll which Admiral KoLcHAK was to
exercise and to what extent he would
abide by the decision of national
representative assembly. The reserya-
lions upon which he insists. however.
make 1t evident that of equal impor-
lance with these matters was his at
titude to the States which have been
formed or are likely to be formed,
by the Peace Conference from the ter
ritory Of the former Russian Empire.
Especially in western Russia is this
of Importance If the settlement is to
bring a secure peace. There are al
ready at least five separate States
which have been recognized or which
are struggling for recognition. The
establishment of Poland and Finland
as Independent States may be con-
sidered as accomplished, even though
the boundaries Of neither are yet def
nitely fixed. There remain, however,
for settlement the demands of two
other Baltic peoples, the Lithuanlans
and Esthonians. If two more indie
pendent States are formed for these
people Russia would be practically
cut off from direct communication
with the Baltic Sea and the west ex-
cept by way Of Petrograd and the
Gulf of Finland.
In the south there is Ukraine, Of
which the exact status has not yet
been determined by the conference.
Another former Russian province In
the south whose fate depends upon
the action of the conference In Bes-
sarabia. There is a delicate matter
In the settlement of the future gov
ernments of Transcaucasian and
Transcaspian regions, which are
claiming recognition for services they
rendered the Allies against Turco-
German armies in the east. To recog-
nize all of these different separatlst
elements as Independent States would
leave to the Kolchak Government In
Europe scarcely more than old Russia.
Admiral KoLcHAK has agreed to
the establishment Of n free democratic
Russia with local self-government
md a representative constituent as
sembly. He has agreed to leave to
this assembly the settlement of the
land and labor policy of the new
State and to arrange a satisfactory
adjustment of the Russian public
debt. He has not, however, defined,
nor apparently have the Allies, how
much Of Russia the assembly should
represent.

A BOY SCOUT HALL.
A Useful Memorial to Theodore
Roosevelt Is Suggested.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir, The
Boy Scouts have won national recogni-
ton of the war work which they have
done, and suggest that to them be given
a permanent headquarters in a building
In Washington dedicated to the memory
OF Roosevelt.
What more suitable memorial could
there be in honor of Roosevelt? II could
house a national Roosevelt collection and
would serve as shrine from which
the boys OF our country would draw
inspiration year after year. II would
affect the lives of thousands of boys at
the proper age TO do the most good
It would appeal TO the popular magma

Chairman HURLEY has his mind
fixed on this great and necessary

with the proper Government backing
he can put our South American feet
ahead of all the other fleets that sail
the seas. There is no question that
the American people who still thrill

that the Government will speed Mr..

WHO ARE THE HEROES?
An Inquiry About o Certain Regiment
Of the Third Division.

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SuN-S'r: The
most unknown man In the world is the
Colonel of a certain regiment OF the
Third Division which at Maizy, accord
ing to General Pershing's ofiicial sum
married report some months ago, wrote
one of the most brilliant pages in the
military history of the United States
Not even the number of the regiment
is known, although It was specifically
and exclusively referred to otherwise In
the summarized report.
II the military exigencies OF the sit
uation seven months after the signing
OF the armistice do not require rigors
OF censorship. one who lost a brother In
the Third Division one week before the
armistice was signed would be prompted
to inquire into few details of the his
tory Of the war. Survivors among the
original Third Division are relatively
few In number. and doubtless not much
impressed with their own exploits. AZ
Regulars they were trained as n matter
Of course to accomplish such work as
they set out to do, and we shall proba-
bly, hear very little from them directly.
They are smoking your tobacco CRATE
fully but quietly. and they have con-
trived by their silent contentment to
put upon your newspaper the new obli-
cation of smoking out the regiment that
wrote the brilliant page Of history. A
regular newspaper of national circula-
ton may md 1t agreeable to discover
to small but nationwide contingent
Of relatives-the public generally might
also be interested-the acts of heroism
which commanded General Pershing'e
admiration and the number that every
American should wish to write into his
memory of whichever regiment It was
that evoked a great Generals particu-
lar praise.
Isn't 1t in order at this time for some
Colonel somewhere, now the most I'M

CITIZENS UNION WINS
TWO BIG VICTORIES
Hyian Finance Plan Blocked
After Legal Fight.

The Citizens Union. branded once by
Mayor Hylan as the biggest bunch OF
fakirs in town" but more recently re-
ferred to by him in an interview he
wrote with himself as one OF the pow
erful interests" that opposed his cleo
ton, was preening itself yesterday over
its successful effort to block two moves
by the Hylan administration which It
believed were against the public interest
The two cases in point were the at
tempt of the Board of Estimate to use
the proceeds OF corporate stock issued
to meet the expenses of the Public Ser
vice Commission to swell the general
fund for the reduction OF taxation, and
the application OF the Municipal Civil
Service Commission for authority to re-
classify as exempt an important place
as examiner on the stan OF the Board
of Estimate.
The Citizens Union brought suit in the
first instance to restrain the Hylan board
from making such disposition OF the
public funds as was contemplated and
Supreme Court Justice James c. Cropsey
OF Brooklyn issued a temporary injunc-
ton. On Friday the Appellate Division
affirmed Justice Cropsey's action. The
Citizens uEion also vigorously opposed
the attempt to open the position OF ex-
aminer to partisanship and the State
Civil Service Commission last week re-
fused to give to the local commission
the authority necessary to make the
change.
A statement issued yesterday by the
organization read:
THE Citizens Union is gratifed that
its opposition TO two recent attempts of
the present city government to adopt a
line OF action which seemed to the union
to be contrary to the public interest has
been fully justified and upheld by higher
authorities and the attempts apparently
stopped."

n separate State, but he has not ac-
cepted entirely the boundary lines

There has been no official announce
ment from him regarding his recog-
milton Of either Finland or Ukraine.
The support which he has received
from General DENEKINE on the south

north would indicate that the repub-
lies Of the Crimea and of northern
Russia will became parts Of the Omsk
Government. How many Of all the
different elements now contending for
freedom shall be Incorporated within
new Russia and to how many shall
be given an autonomy Of government?
This is the question which both KoL-
cHAK and the Paris conference have
now to decide II they are to build up
a State that will have permanence
and unity.
