August, the craft 70 include American
and English boats of what yachtsmen
abroad cali the six meter class, (which
IS approximately twenty feet, and cor
responds generally 10 our IS" and
Victory classes. PAUL HAMMOND Of
the New York Yacht Club is the chief
mover in this plan for series Of in
terndtional small boat races, the chair
man of the English committee being
Sir RALPH ST. G. c. GORE Of the Royal
Yacht Squadron.
1t Is hoped 20 have q series of races
every two years, first in English and
then in American waters, until the
boats Of one country have won the cup
twice In succession. Four boats are
10 represent each country, and the
English plans are so far advanced that
the first OF the elimination races viii
be begun in the Solent on July Is,
1921. FIFE Of Fairlie has already been
selected 70 design three boats TO sail
In the elimination races.
Sir CHARLES ALLoM is one of the
prominent English yachtsmen who are
to build boats especially for these
races. In this series II Is understood
that our boats will have to conform
to the British rules in the first race.
while in the second the British de
sIgners will have to conform TO our
rules. ROBERT w. EMMoNs % has ex-
pressed the opinion as to this series
that the interchange will show to the
of each country just what
the other country's boats are like I'M
der racing conditions, and that this
may lead eventually to uniformity in
racing rules.
So far as the practical Improvement
of seagoing ship design is concerned.
of course the fishing schooner races
win be of more Importance than the
race between the twenty footers,
which viii be racing toys pure and
simple.

Stop the Government Spending.

Whether the Government INCOME
falls because old revenues are fading
away, or whether the Government in
come keeps up through new taxes and
fresh revenues, Congress must hold
down the national expenses to the
limit. The road to financial redemp-
ton runs in no other direction.
The way to get the national ex-
penses down is to cut them down with
merciless amputation, no matter what
the protests Of the department spend
ers. The question now IS not how
much the departments want or how
little they say they can get along with.
The question is how much the Govern
ment can afford to have them spend
and how little Congress is going TO let
them spend.
And Congress will not do enough
with this programme Of enforced saw
ing If it merely refuses TO appropriate
the money for the departments. Con-
gress must 60 further than that. 1t
must give them what they are going
to be allowed to spend and then nail
the lid down.
During the period Of war squander
the departments have acquired the
habit, whether money is appropriated
or not, of spending it anyhow. When
The cash is at their command they rip
through it. When 1t is all gone they
Keep on spending and charge it. Then,
10 square up the overspendings and
ret rid of the bill collectors that are
shocking on the Treasury door, Con-
gress at the next appropriating ses-
sion has to make deficiency appropria-
lions to cover the overspendings of
The past.
But Congress can stop this reckless
Overspending and ruinous running up
Of bills by making statutory provisions,
if necessary, which will make 1t dam
gerous for anybody to keep On spend
ing after his appropriation is ex-
hausted. Congress, II there is no other
way, can enact measure which will
give every department spender the
choice of stopping short when he has
come to the end Of his appropriation
or of going TO Jail, If this is the only
way to protect the United States
Treasury and the American taxpayers
from the overspenders Congress ought
not to hesitate to go to it.
Anyhow, in whatever way it must
ne worked out. Congress needs to cut
a billion of dollars, in round numbers,
of the Administration estimates for
the next fiscal year. It needs to get
the total appropriation down below
four billions Of dollars, If possible
below three and three-quarter billions
even down 20 three and a half bill
ions. Then it wants to hold the spend
ings dead on the appropriation mark.

From Cities to Farms.
Professor Ward Of Harvard Thinks
the Labor Tide Is Turning.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: In q re-
cent editorial article you stated that
IL immigration were suspended. either
through a temporary or a permanent ex-
clusion measure" the American farmer
would be harassed. hindered and Grip
pied by a lack of farm labor and the
American public would be dealt body
blow" May / have the privilege OF
pointing out three important facts in re-
gard TO this matter?
First: There is no measure before
Congress. or likely to be. which aims
to exclude all immigration. temporarily
or permanently. The bill recently re-
ported from the House Committee on
immigration suspends alien immigra-
ton for a period, but makes a long
list Of exceptions in favor OF blood rela-
tlves of naturallzed aliens now resi-
dent In this country, of aliens VINO
apply for citizenship and of other per-
sons. How large the number OF such
blood relatives may be no one has the
means of knowing. But n simple cal
culation will inevitably lead to the con-
clusion that this number will be well
up in the hundreds Of thousands at the
very least.
Second There is no need OF un-
limited immigration TO supply the need
of farm labor. A period of unemploy-
ment has already begun. The enormous
Industrial demands Of the war and the
later expansion OF trade naturally re-
suited in a great influx of workers from
tho country districts into the cities
This change In the conditions of employ
ment brought about shortage OF farm
labor. But the tide Is turning.
There Is n general slackening Of in
dustrial activity. Already the experts
tell us there is setting in a flow Of labor
from the cities TO the country. Unless
all signs fail the coming spring will
see farm labor again supplied by the
men who left the farms for the mills
and the machine shops. IL is the opin-
ion of the economic experts with whom
have had the opportunity of talking
within the past month that further i'm
migration is not now needed to supply
our labor market
Third: Present immigration does not
furnish the kind OF labor which is
needed on our farms. What our great
farming districts want is highly intelll-
gent labor. They want men who are
skilled In American farming methods.
They want men who can handle modern
agricultural machinery They do not
want ignorant. unskilled. non-English
speaking foreigners. who know little be-
yond the use of a primitive sort of hoe.
I have talked with many men who own
the farms In the Middle West from
which our great cereal food supplies
come and ] have found them of one
mind on this matter. 1t Is highly sig
nihcant that at the last annual session
or the Farmers National Congress
held in Columbus. Ohio, In November
with delegates from about thirty States
in attendance, the following resolution
was unanimously passed November 10:
Resolved, That wo are unaltorably op-
posed 10 the proposed diversion and dis
tribution OF aliens over the farming DIS
trlcts until immigration is rigidiy re-
stricted, numerically or otherwise.

r)reign and domestic, reaching in the
aggregate a huge figure. For this
reason commercial paper enjoys a
much broader market in Europe and
the rates are more stable than for
similar collateral in New York.
The centralized exchange market,
If carried through in conjunction with
the establishment Of periodic Stock
Exchange settlements removing Sc
curity loans altogether from the call
loan market, will bring our bill mar
ket in line with the sound banking
practices abroad which have largely
accounted for English success in
financing internationl trade.

Pirates of the North.

The Soviet schooner Alaska, manned
by Bolshevists, displaying the red flag,
arrived in Seattle Thursday with a
cargo of pelts and a tale of an arctic
pirate ship which raids the coast
towns of Alaska and Siberia, taking
refuge with it's booty behind the ice
bergs of Boring Sea.
At Emma Harbor the sea rovers stole
thirty tons OF coal, which they sold
at Nome. They pillaged a trading
post at Anadir last winter, killing sew
eral persons. Recently their ship was
seen hiding in a glaciers shadow.
In everything except climatic en-
vironment these sea wolves Ill all
the specifications Of buccaneers, yet
their lives do not stir the spirit Of
romance. A pirate on an iceberg, Cap
tain KIDD burying chests of gold on
the tundra, wicked John Silver scram-
bling across q Aoe-the pictures do
not fit the frame and fame Of piracy.
\ palm covered isle, rich West In
dian town, green and beautiful 18TH
milan metropolis, azure seas; such are
meet for a ship which should fly the
skull and crossbones.
Historically pirates drink hot rum !;
some of the noted leaders of the
rovers have taken their noggin ablaze.
Hot rum, In truth, would be welcome
in Boring Sea. But what success can
attend even the most heroic attempt
at a debauch undertaken when the
aurora borealis must substitute for
the tropic moon?

enemies OF the Irish as they are the
