On the shoot off, Lewis, who has not
been shooting very often at Travers

scratch special, which was taken by
A: E. Ranney, with straight score of
25 targets.
AS Christmas Day falls on the final
Saturday of the month, and as the

The next annual meeting of the
United States Lawn Tennis Associa-
ton, which will be held in this city on
Saturday, February 5, will not be filled
with some of the vexatious and i'm
portant problems that confronted the
delegates last year and the year be-
fore, most Of these difficulties having
been finally disposed Of
Probably the most interesting sub
ject to be voted upon at the next meet
ing will be the question as to where
the national singles championship tour
nament is to go in 1921, and this may
prove to be the main subject Of debate
before the delegates adjourn.
In the thirtynine years that the
national tournament has been held in
this country only two clubs, the New
port Casino and the West Side Tennis
Club, of Forest Hills. l.. l., have
handled it. and with eminent satistac-
tion and efficiency. Because of it's lone.

victory of the Reds was by the one

Dick Rudolph May Try
TO Join Detroit Tigers

BOSTON. Dec. 1S.-Dick Rudolph,
who was one Of the trio that pitched
Che Braves out of the ruck to league
and worlds championship in 1914, is
probably to leave the team. He has
been given authority by President
George w Grant to negotiate for his
transfer.
1t is understood that he seeks to join
the Detro Tigers because of sugges-
tions received on the spring training
trip that the Braves and Tigers made
jointly last year and desire in the
closing. Years of his pitch ing career to

Passing the Hat

In his efforts to limit campaign
contributions to $1,000 Chairman
Hays has something bigger and bet
ter in view than to establish safe
guard against corruption and to
protect candidates from being under
obligation.
AS man with some experience in
politics, he is aware of how little in
fluence is exerted by the large giver.
and he appreciates the sound and
patriotic motives which lead rich
men to subscribe. He knows that
large contributor commonly pos
sesses an ordinance of f-denial
that he loses some of the influence
he would otherwise enjoy; that the
candidate and the party tend to lean
backward in proving that it kept it.
self free. Moreover, Mr.. Hays is
Informed as to the entirely legiti-
mate purposes for which the large
campaign fund goes. 1t may be
taken for granted that Mr.. Hays
agrees with Chairman White on the
point that the loud outcries of the
Hearsts and the Borahs are chiefly
buncombe.
But Chairman Hays wants very
much to restore the interest of the
Republican rank and file in the
party. And he is good enough
psychologist to understand that if
person can be induced to give even a
few cents to cause it is then likely
to become his own. If it were the
practice to give to political parties
as it is to other organizations there
would be much less complaint of
bossism. If million persons could
be induced to realize that party
is their party new and purifying
vitality would be introduced into
politics.
Maybe Mr.. Hays will not succeed.
The habit Of voters to assume that
a few would pay the bills incurred
in advocating political cause is
deep-seated and not easy to eradi-
cate. But Mr. Hays has achieved
much and his experiment has already
justified itself. A passing of the hat
should be the order CT business of
every political gathering as of every
religious one.

Making Progress

1t seems just and fitting to con-
graduate "Thc World' and "The
Times" on making distinct progress
toward truth. The steps taken are
short and hesitant, there is looking
back over the shoulder, but notice.
able is distinct change of dircc-
ton.
For some time our neighbors have
been sure, absolutely sure, that Mr..
Harding had repudiated, lock, stock
and barrel, each and every, all and
several, singly and in battalions, any
thing bearing the name of league.
1t was intimated Mr.. Harding
wanted to forbid schoolboys to recite
Tennyson's stirring verses because
they begin Half league" thus be-
ing so per cent error. Did not the
San Francisco platform charge re-
pudiation? Did not Hiram say so?
Had not Woodrow arranged for
campaign predicated on reputation?
Now robust certainty fades to a
pale and weak Interrogation. Lusty
and confident affirmation sinks into
request for information. An eff"
is introduced. If Mr. Harding has
not repudiated the league, where,
asks "The World" does he stand? In
similar tone speaks "The Times
which now discovers that Mn. Har-
ding is for some kind of league,
bat holds it is ghost. The simile is
scarcely happy, for if there is a
ghost league wandering about, it
must emanate from the body into
which Mr.. Wilson plunged his knife
when he refused to allow ratification.
The practical abandonment Of the
reputation charge is a beginning.
1t will doubtless be followed up be-
fore long by an admission that the
only mystery relating to Mr.. Hard
ing's league position is why any
one thought his attitude could be
successfully misrepresented. If the
attempt had been made in October,
with Election Day near, some might
have been gulled, but it lacked the

vcmber.
Mr.. Harding may or may not re-
vlvc the Wilson league and seek for
its ratification with the Lodge rescr-
vatlons which he is twice on record
as holding are sufficiently safe
guarding. His action will naturally
depend on whether or not he is able
to get two-thirds of the Senate to
ratify on these terms. He surely
will not take as his model the futile
policy of President Wilson and begin
by launching row. That will be
determined only in part by Republi-
cans. The support of Democratic
Senators must be secured to put any
project through. 1t not helped the
league idea to inject it into partisan
politics, has reused prejudices it will
be difficult to subduc.
If it is impossible to secure ratifi
cation of the covenant on the basis
of the Lodge reservations Mr.. Hard
ing, as a sensible man, indicates a
wish to enter in a new negotiation
with our war associates. Senators of
both parties, it may be predicted,
will take part in this negotiation.
MI Harding will not be satisfied
merely to affix his signature to a
grandiloquent document and then
pin medals on himself. AS a practi-
cal man he will labor to get some
thing done. A new negotiation may
be a necessity.
No one can now saw what will be
the exact situation in March next
either with respect to the attitude of
the Senate or with respect to inter
national conditions. No one knows
what can be done, or even what
should be done, and as sincere man
Mr.. Harding refuses to commit HIM
self to any precise program He is
for a league substantially like the
Wilson covenant plus the Lodge
reservations, and this is as far as he
can honestly go.
The Tribune has not been a par
ticular admirer Of Senator Harding.
But long an advocate of league of
nations in which this country shall
be a member, candor forces it to say
that his attitude toward the league,
showing as it does character and a
desire to do something, is highly
gratifying. He has shown the right
sort of stuff by resisting pressures.
lie has stuck to policy of firm COM
mon sense. The contention that his
position is ambiguous is mere cam
paign froth.

Shrining its unguessed secret, there liea

Inc grey trout plash and play on the

But the bell, they say still peals in the
crumbling steeple like sweet
rant piping Of faery lips, far away,
through trembling reed.
And have listened and fingered under
the bleak March skies,
When through the faded heather the
winds sang sleety and pure;
But the waters were pale as sword

And never sound but the curlews
screaming on Allermuir
And l have listened, daydream;np n
golden drowsy moons,
When the smell Of honey and THYME
made magic of summer ease:
But the waters were fair as a child that
sleeps to old cradle tunes,
And never sound but the grasshoppcr's
voice and the droning of bees
And have listened. faint-hearted or
haunted autumn ewes.
When out of the cleaning the cairns on
the topmost hills rose stark;
But the waters with mirrored stars were
thick, as the sward with leaves,
And never sound but the gurgle of
burns that sang in the dark.
Whose are the hands that peal the bell
in the vanished town?
Where is the thin high thread of muffled
music that stills
Hearts grief? What secret inviolate
dwclls where the weeds drift

Here is the waving grass, and silence

The problem of industrial relations,
as expressed by the Republican and
Democratic platforms, deserves care
full attention by the public as we'll as
by all engaged in industrial pursuits
The two parties have spoken, and the
voter has both the right and the duty
to examine their respective declara-
tons and determine which set of prn-
ciplcs are the better calculated to re-
store stability and poise in our deli
cate industrial mechanism.
A casual analysis of the planks dis
closes that the Republican planks on
industrial relations are shorter and
more clearly and sharply defined The
Democratic planks are in places
evasive, vague and obviously vote
catching. Both parties, however, agree
on important proposals: that CONT
nulty of industrial operation be MAIN
tanned; that strikes and lock outs
should be obviatcd, and that the prn-
ciple of collective bargaining is valid.
On other questions the planks diverge
rather than conflict.
An analysis of the Republican
planks covering seven subjects, il as
follows:
