Tilden and Kumagae Attract
Major Attention-Jap
Beats Johns.

The annual open tournament Of the
Harlem Tennis Club was started yester-
day afternoon on the clay courts Of
the club at 13sth street and Eighth
avenue. The big fold Of seventy-nine
players did not finish play until after
s o'clock. when the moon was just be-
stirring itself at intervals between the
lowering clouds.
Two players advanced into the fourth
round and total of twenty-five matches
were disposed Of the defaults being
very few for first day under such
unfavorable circumstances. The men
will go at their work again this after
noon and probably fill out the fourth
round. reducing the original field TO
sixteen.
Most interest attached to the matches
IN which William T. Tilden "a. national
clay court champion and winner Of this
tournament last year. and Ichiya Ku-
magae OF Japan we're competitors. They
are In opposite sides OF the draw. and

LOWER CALIFORNIA.

Not little agitation has taken
llace REGARDING the purchase by the
United States Of the peninsula Of
Lowe. California now the property Of
Mexico and 4 strip of country which
IS rocky and desolate. Whatever eff
forts have been made in the past have
leen fruitless and it is NOT believed
taat there is any better chance for
success now.
According to Senator Ashurst o.
Arizona, who has introduced a reso-
luticn i'm the upper house of congress
calling Uron the president to open
negotiations with Mexico for the ac-
Gyisition of that territory. it IS nee
cssary that steps should be taken tc
protect Masda7ena bay from falling
into the hands Of the japanese, and AT
the same tire he urges the import
ance Of acquiring about 10000 square
miles Of the Mexican state of Sonora
which joins Arizona to the south ant
which has the gulf OF California t
the west
There can be 1ittle question bu
what the Japanese danger is just az
much exaggerated row as it has beer
in the past, and it is seriously doubt
| Cd whether the relations of the United
] States and Mexico are such that i
would be possible to bring about an,
! satisfactory negotiations regarding
such a proposition. If this countr.
! is going to get that part of Mexico
! and it is to be remembered that tn
! PORTION of Sonora which tie Arizon
senator refers to has some of the bes
mining property in Mexico, it must b
! paid for. That rather than the over
worked Japanese menace may be tn
chief reason for the putting forwar
Of the idea Of acquiring that sectio
Of Mexico at this time. The time ma
come when such deal can be pu
through but it is hardly believed tha
the present is the time when it coul

or not everyone was made conscious
Of the fact that waste had to be re-
placed by frugality and the question
now is whether the lesson that has
been learned is going to stick, not
simply in regard to food but in all
directions.
It can hardly be believed that all
the efforts which have been made in
this direction will be wasted. Neces-
sity has caused attention to be direct
cd toward this matter as nothing else
could have and it is only reasonable
that there should be a continuation Of
the good work. Millions upon millions
of dollars have been saved through
the guarding of the use of all kinds
Of material and certainly what is worth

worthy of proper consideration at 9TH

OTTER VIEW POINTS

The fifth Liberty Loan is enga ging
the attention of the financial world
not only with speculation as 20 its to-
tai and interest rate, but as to the pcs
sible utilization Dy the government Of
that greet body OF those who patriotic
ally gave unspuringly of their time to
the details Of selling the first four to
the people-the business men. Ever
since Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Forgan and
Ir. Reynolds assured Mr.. McAdoo
that a half billion loan was all he
could float successfully for the first
Liberty Loan, and the country came
out with four times that amount, they
have been rather chary about forecast
ing any fiSures as the limit for the
country. AT any rate, predictions and
speculate tons as to the loan may well
wait The only prediction which may
be safely made is that this lean will be
over subscribed just like the four
which preceded it. Apprehension over
the amount of work the business
men will do business or no business,
will prove useless. When the time
comes. as in the past. business men
and everybody else will take hold and
make selling the loan" their occupa-
! ton till the loan goes over the top

The LESSON oE rHRIET.

From the time when we entered the
war IL not before the importance of
thrift and the need of overcoming
waste were impressed upon the people
Of this country frequently and wisely.
There was plenty of need of it as was
demonst lted by the great accom-
plishmcnts which resulted. We even
found that we could get alon" with
much less than would have been pre-
viously conceded and it was uui ky
seen whore there were opportunities
for not only saving through decreas-
Ing the amount of good material
thro~n away but through q better use
Of things available.
There were the thrifty who did not
need the lessons. They were saving
and would have saved anyway, but
here were a great many others who
beczuse there had always been plenty
lad given no thought to saving. Waste
was what they had been cultivating

EDITORIAL NOTES.

These certainly cannot help being
jubilant days for the advocates of pro-
hibition.
That Boston man who was caught
in Maine with 1G pints of liquor doesn't
believe in prohibition.
The man on the corner says: There
are times when common sense has a
mighty hard struggle getting along.
In spite of all the appalling exam
pies there are people who continue to
start fires with kerosene and make a
needless sacrifice.
There's hardly a day goes by but
what some on the police force find it
necessary to do more or less fighting
20 preserve peace.
Thus far the city has escaped the
usual snow shovelinG bills. but the
wear and tear on the roads is likely
to make up for 1t.
Business with the map makers is
going to remain decidedly uncertain
until after the work of the peace con-
ference is completed.
The decision to push the date Of the
peace conference along looks as ii
there were yet a few of the details
which need to be Strengthened out.
It is quite evident that the extrem-
FISTS have been badly beaten in Berlir
else there would have been no chance
for a get together of the factions.

THE MERCHANT MARINE.

Just how this country is going to
handle irs merchant marine. while Il
is building and after it gets 20 the
point desired, is a matter which can
rut he disre"ardod by the national
legislature. That it musg he taken
care Of cannot he disrcgarded by the
national legislature. That it must be
taken care of cannot lie overlooked
We need the vessels fo~ our trade and
IF we are going to have them, to fly
thereon the American nag and to op-
crate under the laws watch are today
existing congress must do its part,
whether it is through government OPP
Grafton like the navy. the payment Of
bonuses or subsidies.
When reference is made to the fact
that American shipovners cannot
compete with foreign shipowners ard
comply with the saamens act. the
lain is made that under its provis-
ions the operators Of foreign ships
-annot come into our ports without
loins as well by their crews as the
American shiDowrfers must do by
theirs because they would be in dan
ger Of being left crewlcss through the
Hagerness Of the foreign crews to ship
on American vessels and get the added
benefits.
That may be true to a limited ex-
tent but t. is 10 be expected that
such a possibility would be carefully
guarded. and it is to be remembered
mat there are many restrictions
against aliens entering this contry
under those very conditions Thei-
are those who are barred under al
circumstances and Yet they are not
prevented from coming TO our ports
as members OF crews. as long, as they
remain aboard ship and this is par.
ticularly true Of shipping III the Pa.

The problems surrounding the mer

toward the solution.
