You will not dare" President Wilson
IS reported by The Associated Press as
saying to the delegates in arguing
against the selection of Brussels. "to
choose city as the capital of the league
OF nations which incarnates the enmity
between races-a city which has been
wronged doubtless, but which makes a
reconciliation between the peoples Of
Europe more distant by the very wrongs
it has suffered"
While not discussing the possibilities
of Atlantic City when faced with this
restrictive clause, "The Philadelphia In
qulrer" takes an opposite view from
many of its contemporaries and states
that Geneva is not the place:
ut is to be hoped that the decision is
not final. Geneva is not a suitable place
for world discussions, for the very good
reason that Switzerland is the stamping
ground Of every crack Drained, evil minded
anarchist seeking asylum from the con-
sequences of political crimes committed in
his own country
Throughout the war Switzerland shell
tered Hun conspirators and spies and
agents. Plots were hatched there. Bombs
were manufactured secretly. The Swiss
cities were danger spots. Switzerland has
always been a safe harbor for fugitives.
Such is its idea of liberty. For the very
reason that the league of nations would
be surrounded by sinister influences, it is

1T Is bad start"
Thus the other competitors are still on
the lists-Versailles, Constantinople, the
Holy Land, Rome, Copenhagen, Chris

Atlantic City. The question still re-
mains: Where does the great winter re-

town in New Jersey that meets the specifi-
cations. The location Of the governing
commission Of the proposed league is yet
an open question Why not Atlantic City
Is not Atlantic City about as much Of
midway point for a world government as
can be found on the world map?"
Although the question no longer seems
open, Atlantic City may still be in the
running. The official word as to the
choice Of a league capital has not vet
been given-nothing but indications that
Geneva is running far in the lead, hav-
ing passed Brussels and the rest. Com
mentlng in the same racing strain "The
New Orleans Times Picayune" believes
that:
There is, of course, nothing official In
tho report either that President Wilson has
secured the adoption Of Geneva as league
of nations capital or that France has shown
serious opposition to the Swiss city for
that honor. 1t was foregone that natures
beauty spot at the western extremity of
Lake Leman would be prominent In all dis
cussions of a proposed site, but the an
nouncement respecting France is somewhat
confusing, since it would seem that oppo-
sition, If any, toward Geneva would come
from other nations, lest that place afford
the French republic too favored position.
For this we are inclined to believe
that the rumored antagonism of the French
peace conferrees is not serious, but merely
part Of systematic jockeying for position.
Geneva, while Swiss city, is practically
surrounded by French territory, with no at
tempt at fortifcaton, and, of course, is ut
terly exposed to attack should her big
ncighbor ever go mad like Germany, and

American city would be putting

honor of housing the world capital" But
things looked that way only before At
lantlc City leaped into the arena as the
exponent of American enterprise by sug-
gesting itself as more than possible
candidate for the much debated seat of
the league Of nations. Even with the
choice of Geneva by a plurality Of six

France, together with the action of the
New Jersey Legislature, brings that

Hearty applause greeted the ratif-
cation Of a bill in the Assembly au-

SO that this rising young jockey had a
wonderful day, everything considered.
Lucullite beat Willis Sharpe Kilmer's
Sun Briar in the $4,000 Mount Vernon
Handicap, at a mile. Well, so far as
that goes, the ancient and honorable
Old Rosebud did the same, for Old
Rosebud was second to the Hildreth
colt. Nothing but the black art of
chemistry can explain away Lucullite's 3
Tuesday, when in the Tuckahoe Handi-
car James Buffers Bally beat him a
length over a fast track in 1889 2-5.
Lucullite romped home on the chin
strap yesterday over a heavy track in
1:4O 2-5.
Lucullite's earlier defeat was blamed
on the inability of Fator to hold the
horse together, but all Fator had to do
yesterday was to keep from falling off.
Should Investigate Race
The betting on this race justifies Off
cial investigation. While Lucullite com
manded a heavy play, the price of Sun
Brlar went soaring. And, while Sun
brlar seemed heavy in flesh, Johnny
Lotus, who had the mount, never once
gave the Kilmer colt a chance
Lotus went around the first turn and
through the backstretch with Sun Briar
under triple wraps. The horses mouth
was wide open all the way up the back
stretch: Lotus kept taking up, even
after Old Rosebud passed him, and
Rosebud at the time was half a dozen
lengths behind Lucullite.
II it had been some other jockey there
might have been some excuse But
LOTUS had ridden Luculilte. He knew
of what the horse was capable. Did he
really think any horse living could
stake Lucullite to such a lead as he
willfully gave him, and then come on
to victory through the stretch?
Loftus's ride. to put it most kindly,
was very indifferent, if not indeed sus-
picious. The betting on the event made
1t even more in appearance one of our
many boat" races. The fact that
Lucullite belongs to Hildreth should no
more excuse that thorough ghbred's re-
versal in form than that an explanation
sho1ld be asked of Lotus as to the
why and wherefore Of his handling of
Sun Briar, the favorite.

Sweetzer, IL Years
Old, Has Card of 90
On Apawamis Links

John W. Sweetzer, the seventeen
year-old player from the Ardsley
Country Club, yesterday sprang one of
the biggest surprises Of years in met
ropolitan golf by going around the
Country Club in 50, thus lowering the
amateur course record by three
strokes. The youngster achieved this
feat in the qualifying round of the
Westchester Golf Associations annual
tournament.
Sweetzer played a remarkable game,
his putting and drives being timed
wonderfully. He electrified the gallery
by taking 81 for the first nine holes.
On the outward journey the Ardsley
golfer drew the gallery by his holing
out on the first few holes, some Of
which he played under par. He also
IS for So.
Val Birmingham of Wykagyl, turned
in the second best score, six strokes
more than Sweetzer He took 81 on
the outward trip and 80 on the home
ward journey. Lee Maxwell, of silva
noy, with 37-39-76, finished third
Findley S. Douglas, former national
and metropolitan champion; Reggie
Lewis, of Wykagyl. playing his first
tournament since his return from over
seas, and T. H. Paul yere deadlocked
for fourth, with total of II each.
John G. Anderson, three-time winner
of the Westchester annual tournament,
finished one stroke more than the trio.
He went out in So, second best to
young Sweetzer on the outward trip.
On his homeward journey Anderson
experienced trouble on the greens and
had to. be content with AZ for rs.
More than fourscore golfers teed off
in the event. Henry ]. Topping, a
member Of the new Blind Brook Club,
which is close to the Apawamis course,
was not allowed the tee-of, as the
Blind Brook organization is not as yet
a member Of the Westchester Golf AS
sociation.
