REPLACE FAST CRUISERS
 WITH HYDROPLANES

DETROIT. Jan. lO.-Fast express cruisers, which can be used for com mcrCial purposes when not being used in racing events. will soon dis p.Gcc hydroplanes as the object oi intcrst to yaChtsmen in sped contest, according to Commadore A. A. Schantz. of the Detroit Yacht club.
 Comadoro Schantz is authority for tkc statcmnt that hydroplcne racing is passing out. The type of power boats that have been seen tearing through the water at more than 60 miles an hour in the famous Gold cup races. the local Yachtsman declares, have little about them that Is p"ac- tical.
 The government during the war COmmador Schantz said, did not re gard any of these hydrOplanes seriously when it was having fast boats constructed for the navy, and that fact opened the eyes of the sportsmen to the impracticabiiity of the racing machines we have built for the annual races for the Gold cup"
 Detroit will defend the Gold cup next fall. if necessary, he added, but that will be the final effort of local yachtsmen in the powerboat game.
 CommadOr SchantZ believes the eX- press cruiser races will attract many more entries than the hydrop.ane events

He was posthumously awarded the French war cross for his sacrifices
 Months ago the parents ceased to receive letters from Ralph. the sur viving brother, and were fearful that he also had been killed when they heard from him under the date of November F, the day after fighting ceased. The letter related how. un- successful in obtaining permission to leave his unit, he had gone direct to the front and joined in the thickest Of the fighting that preceded the signing of the armiStiCc

 Meanwhile the Red Cross through it's Alaska chapters IS doing every thing possible to deal promptly with the local situations.

role OF NEUTRALS
IS FAR FROM EASY
King Alfonso Says victors
Remember Alleged Unfriend-
ly Acts, Overlook Help Given.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, February 21.--"The role OF
the neutrals is at present far from
an easy one" said King Alfonso OF
Spain in an interview which he gave
Albert Loudres Of the Petit Journal
recently and published today by that
newspaper. "It GEMS to me-" con-
tinued the king, that the victorious
countries are more inclineds to re-
member the actions they consider un-
friendly than the help they had from
US, but that is human.
With what are we in Spain re-
preached? We are made responsible
for the propaganda that a belliger-
ent nation carried on here. but the
constitutional guarantees were not
suspended. There were people of all
nationalities here and l fail to see
how Spain could be made to answer
party"
Speaking of the Franco Spanish re-
latfons during the var King Alfonso
said:
IF France attributed good inten-
tons to me they were also the in
tentions of my people. One is the re-
Election of the other. l am the king,
certainly. but the most constitutional

Keep to the Right!
- the Editor 81 The star.

10 the Editor OF The Star:
Ever since I came to Washington /
have wanted to call attention to the
fact that there is rule for the pedes-
trfan as well as for the vehicle; but
masses of Washington foot passen-
gers persistently ignore il. That rule
Is, Keep TO the right" Day after
day streams of people going different
directions hesitate. dodge each other,
collide and vCntually get by. These
collisions impede the progress of the
whole crowd and may easily be
sources of personal danger, for they
take place in the middle of car tracks
or in front of approaching autos or
motor cycles. They are personally
annoying and the cause of loss of
time. Why such numbers of people
attempt to pass on the left Is a mys-
terry. Whatever the reason, keep to
the right" for the foot passenger is a
rule that will make for safety first"
and It ought to be strictly observed.
