AS to the number of golf. tennis and
baseballs in use the subject is as wide as
the United States and as long as the Mis-
sissippi River. IL would be hopeless for even
a weather prognosticator, who will guess on
anything to estimate. unless equipped with
some special knowledge. Therefore THE
NEW YORK HERALD requested Julian w.
Curtiss, president of A. G. Spading
Bros. who probably keeps a keener eye
on the sporting situation than any other
man in the country. to tell approximately
the number of the three types of balls used.
Mr.. Curtiss, after considering the ques-
ton for twenty-four hours, estimated that
1000 dozen golf balls. 100000 little gutta

Concerning basebals Mr.. Curtiss declined

leagues, college teams and other amateur
and professional players. down to the

Concerning the number of baseballs.
can only say that there are many times
more Of high grade golf balls than basebas
in use" Mr.. Curtiss said "Of all the base
balls sold every year the number of high
grade is relatively low"
To many people the fact that more golf
balls are used yearly than tennis balls comes
as a surprise Golf balls have an air of in
destructiblity and permanence about them
not possessed by the softer tennis BALL The
explanation probably is that golfers are
really more numerous than the average OBJ
server imagines and golf balls lead a harder
life at the hands-or clubs-of heavy drivers
than would seem possible Golfers have
habit OF hiding away their links in rather

1t was the Russian offensive in East
Prussia, not the British divisions, which
saved France at the Marne, by compelling
the Germans to send two corps and a cav
airy division east before the decisive battle
To-day, with Russia gone, France must still
seek an eastern ally, and that ally is, in the
nature Of things Poland. With thirty mil
lions OF people, with system of conscrip-
tion, with an army trained under French
direction. Poland can supply the numbers
essential to insure French safety, to take
off enough Of the German mass to enable
France to make good the Rhine barrier at
the very least.
There, after ali, is the naked truth of the
new European situation. French safety
depends upon Polish strength If France
is to be insured against a new German
menace, that insurance must be found in
Poland. But to obtain the Polish insurance
France is bound to lend all her assistance
to the Poles: she must stand with them
against the Russians, she did in the crisis
of last summer when Weygand and Jusse-
rand went to Warsaw; she must stand with
them in Upper Silesa Every ounce added
to the weight of Poland is an ounce taken
off the burden of France on her own from
tiers when Germany regains her strength.
But-and the fact is capitalEGermany
cannot and will not accept the Polish settle

an American defeat and, as zimmerman

which their country is divided by the Danzig
strip. will accept the loss of Danzig, Posen,
Thorn, Bromberg, to say nothing of other
lands that may be lost in Upper Silesia, is to
believe what is on the face OF it impossible.
Moreover, whatever be the expansion of
Poland in the next two or three decades,
whatever the gain in consolidation and re-
integration, Poland cannot hope TO be

In this situation the French policy makes

cannot resign herself to impotence in the
presence OF Germany of seventy millions,
setting out new career of conquest,
with Poland the first objective and the
whole of middle Europe as an attractive
artichoke TO be eaten leaf by leaf Granted
that the restored Germany might long delay
an attack in the west given its dangers, the
time might well come even there when even
British intervention would have no peril, no
threat for Germany expanded to cover all
the lands between the Vistua and the Rhine
and between the Baltic and the Black Sea.
Following 1870 French policy sought and
found in the Russian alliance the only pos
sible counterweight TO German menace.
France could not then stand alone against
Germany; she cannot tomorrow. The Brit
ish alliance will not suffice. for Britain does
not and will not maintain an army based
upon conscription. In 1914 Britain could
get only four divisions to Mons in August,
she had but six at the Marne in September,
and the seventh did not reach Belgium until
October. This small but infinitely precious
Reinforcement, moreover, was not sufficient
to bridge the gap between German and
French effectives

German feeling i'm the present situation is
precisely what the American would be in
the instance l have suggested
Prussia remains the dominant factor in
Germany, and will remain. The greatness
of Prussia was founded on the seizure of
Siesia and the partition of Poland. Berlin
the Prussian as well as the German capital
is an open city barely a hundred miles from
the new Polish boundary posts. East Prus-
sia is divided from Pomerania by the Danzig
corridor, and DanZig. one of the truly great
German cities, is lost TO Germany, While
Konigsberg. which has peculiar hold upon
Prussian sentiment, is to-day the capital OF
an enclave in Slav territory.
Now, British policy, contrasted with
the French. has always looked at the ques-
tion of peace. France has sought and seeks
security. Britain secure within her islands
aims at such adjustments in Europe as
will avoid any war. and, above ALL any war
which may affect Britain. A century and
a quarter ago British policy consented to
the last partition of Poland because it was
a detail in obtaining Prussian and Austrian
assistance in the war against the French
Revolution, which was a menace to British
security. At Paris, two years ago, Britain
was ready to make any sacrifice Of Polish
interests to avoid the certainty of later
German challenge to the Versailles settle
ment.
The American must clearly grasp the
essential difference in objective of the
Briton and of the Frenchman. to see the
truth in the latest European affair Britain
desires to avoid another continen war,
so perlous to her commerce and heI indus
try. In any war between Germany and
France she would almost inevitably be
dragged in, as. she was before, because
victorious Germany at Calais and Antwerp
would be deadly peril for her. But such

Lawford that almost clears the net, or a
lob that lands the ball only a foot or so back
of the base line.
Questioned as to the recent comparative
increases in the demand for the three types
of balls, Mr.. Curtiss said that the golf ball
has shown the greatest increase OF late. In
the last six years the demand for these has
more than doubled Both baseballs and tennis
balls are demanded in greater numbers
yearly, but they are not so popular as the
golf ball.
one reason why the baseball has not
eaped upward of recent years as much as
might be expected is that great many of
the fans confine their enthusiasm for the
national pastime to sitting in the shade of
the grand stand and exercising their lungs
The increasTin the demand for balls is
not sure indication of the increasing num-
Der of players" Mr. Curtiss said in dis
cussing the increase in athletics in this
country. For instance. although the sale
of tennis balls does not indicate a great jump
in the number OF players, there has been
large increase in the popularity of this game.
Tennis balls of the present day. however
last much longer than the old balls did so
OF course the number of balls per player
is less.
THE old tennis ball had in it a rubber
plug. which sometimes became loose or
otherwise interfered with play and shortened
the life of the ball. Now the two halves of
the ball are Joined by a process eliminating
this plug and increasing the life of the ball
Another Improvement is the cementing on
OF the cover instead of stitching II on. This
mas been big gain. Our new processes
make possible the elimination of part of the
human element in the ball and the substitu-
ton of the surer machine"
The big manufacturers of balls compete
more keenly than almost any other pro-
ducers in their efforts to improve their
articles. The Spaldng company. for ex-
ample employs experts who work on moth

and base balls is delicate n process as the

a war is almost inescapable if Poland be
erected into State, occupying most if not
all of the truly Polish lands which were
stolen by the Prussians under Frederick
the Great and have been held i'm political
servitude and against the will of their in
habitants ever since.
Recall British policy in the Balkans and
the parallel is Illuminating. The British
under Beaconsfield were always ready to
turn back Christian populations to Turkish
butchers. because British policy aimed at
restraining Russian advance on CONSTANT
nope. and the Christian populations of the
Balkans, being mainly Slavs, seemed to
British eyes certain to become tools of Rus
sian ambition. British policy in the Baltic
to-day is quite like British policy in the
Near East in the days of the Congress of
Berlin.
At Paris the British were ready and eager
to make Poland the sacrifice essential to in
sure going peace. They fought both the
French and the Americans successfully
seeking reductions of the territories assigned
to Poland. because they saw in such assign
ments the certainty of later German war;
which would involve the rest of Europe. al
most ineluctably And they were just as
ready to sacrifice Poland to Russia, when
the Red armies approached Warsaw and
European stability seemed endangered by
the Boishevist invasion
French policy on the contrary, supported
the Poles in all cases not primarily because
there was a profounder French appreciation
of the imminent justice of the Polish claims
but because Poland was a factor, vital fac
tor in French security. AS for the Amer-
cans they wandered between the two policies.

| and vehemently described. especially
during the week end, the mean
est of all inanimate things. But, considering
its lot it has right to be.
In the good old days, which never are but
always were, a sportsman desiring a little
amusement would call together the gang of

forth on horseback to spear neighborins
sport similarly attred and of like dispos-
ton. 1t was a fine game for the winner and
the loser never appealed the decision.
little later in the history of our civiliza
ton the seeker Of recreation, deprived of
messing up his fellow man by newly in
stituted game laws, would take his gun and
make things interesting for other animals
Frequently, of course, he would also bag
man. but this was not considered cricket
The animals, however, have tired of this
sport and retired into pots, deep forests and
geological gardens
Nowadays the seeker of amusement
thrusts himself into apparel fully as strange
and almost uncomfortable as that of his
'knightly predecessor and goes out in his tin
six and picks on small and unoffending
ball. All the pent Iup human cussedness
which formerly vented itself on fellow men
and beasts is now heaped upon the ball.
AS general thing a man woman does
not wage warfare of the unrestricted type
more than one variety Of ball. If he or she
plays tennis golf is regarded highbrow
and baseball as lowbrow. If baseball charms.
golf is stated to be a thing for old men
and tennis for sissies. II it is tennis that
beats em all. golf is a game for those who
enjoy walking on the grass without fear of
being arrested and baseball thing in which
nine men band together to play parts that
a single really energetic tennis player could
handle all alone.
The mortality among these three types of
balls is exceedingly high. 1t Is rare for a
ball that has really been in use to live to
the ripe old age of one year. The first bat

to requests from the stand, knock the cover
off. Or he may hit IL over the fence or foul

in the league is also its exit. In the two
latter cases. sand lot artists will probably
have a few whacks at II, but in any event
the ingenuity of man has not yet devised
ball that can exist long in association
with a bat.
