NV Garden.

From the Arkansas Gazette.
Were you ever In garden on q fra
grant summer night,
When the silvery rain had slackened
and the moon was shining bright
Through the broken clouds above you
The stars came out to keen
Their tryst with fairy blossoms
That would open In their sleep.
When the scent of mint and clover rose
as incense on the air
And the corns fantastic tassels waved
like spectres grim and spare?
Tall sunflowers at the corners
Their faces bending low
As II their bedtime's coming
And they said their prayers to go.
You forget the world is sordid and your
body aches with toll
When you stand amid the wonders that
have risen from the soil.
You feel the moons wild magic
And no conceit seems vain
When you see the matchless beauty
OF a garden In the rain.

local opinion is that the Jail is IAN
eyesore of the village
To both of which conclusions a
philosopher would venture, under
submission, to enter a protest. The
record of the jaiPs business supports
such an opposing contention. For
over a year there was only one ar
rest In Dover Plains involving Jail
commitment. In that solitary in
stance the prisoner was in Jail three
hours.
In other words. Dover Plains does
not need any Jail. 1t must have
needed one once or the taxpayers
would not have spent money to build
one. So the present dilapidation of
the jail means progress. not reaction.
1t measures the growing dominance
Of virtue over villainy The window
less, doorless junk heap Of Jail Is
not disgrace. It Is credit to the
community. II 1t Is an eyesore. 1t
is an eyesore which is all to the
honor Of the village. Why rail
against It or object to its eloquent
dilapidation? It Is a model jail, just
what jail In model community
should be--a tenantless scarecrow:
its doors and windows Ill open to the
roaming winds; an abode only for
the moping owl and the croaking
night raven.
The last thing the Dover Plains
citizens should think Of is its demo-
lition. It is standing monument
to their Righteousness They should
keep 1t in evidence. They should
point with pride to 1t as Exhibit A
in Dover Plains's growth in grace.

Boats Get the Business.

In the Panama Canal Record is q
story which, read in the measure Of
it's extreme possibility, is of tragic
import to American railway workers,
stockholders and providers Of equip
ment supplies. 1t is the flow of enor-
nous traffic away from the freight
train and into the ship.
In the first quarter Of 1920 the 1um.
Der shipments through the Panama
Canal from British Columbia. Wash
ington and Oregon to the Atlantic
coast were 1,202,229 feet. In the first
quarter of this year Of 1921 the ship
ments through the Canal were A.
495,579. A gain of 41,300,0O0 feet in
the three months, or at the rate of
1856 100000 foot increase in a year.
Forty times more by water than in
the year before!
Again, in the Seattle Chamber Of
Commerce reports are recounted ship
ments of fresh fruits in cold storage
now going to the United Kingdom,
down the Pacific Ocean, through the
Panama Canal, across the Gulf OF
Mexico and then on across the Allan
tic Ocean, instead of, as formerly, by
the transcontinental rail and water
route through New York. Why? The
answer is shipping cost. The all
ocean rate on apples from the north
west growing districts, says the So
attic Chamber of Commerce, is ap-
proximately 40 per cent. lower than
the rail and water rate by way of
New York. So where our railroads
used to get the business the ships
begin to get it. The rate makes the
freight.
The IL per cent. wage reduction
now extended to all the railroads OF
the United States may permit a re-
duction Of traffic rates to get back
some of the business lost because the
rate is too high. If it is not enough
to get 1t back there will have to be
more wage cuts to permit more rate
cuts to get the business and save the
roads. Railroads without traffic arc
potential junk piles. 1t all lies with
the labor costs.

idol may thus counterbalance the
sledge hammer tactics of DEMPSEY.
An interesting poibt has been
raised by students Of the prize ring
who foresee a victory for DEMPSEY.
They declare that the best of the
worlds great pugilists. have been of
the dark type, citing aS illustrations
MACE, SULLIVAN and DEMPSEY to sup
port their argument. CARrENTIER is
a blond. There have been few good
fighters of that complexion. JOE
CHoYNsKI was one Of the best. BOB
FITzsIMMoNs was red headed. Fight
ing goes with that brand Of hair as
naturally as freckies. So the lanky
champion may be eliminated from
consideration in our analysis of this
alleged phenomenon.
That the Frenchman was happier
in the choice Of a training camp than
his opponent Is not to be disputed.
When a man is preparing for
struggle which is going to call for
the best he has in muscle and mind
1t is well to get Is close to nature
as possible. II DEMPSEY fails to
knock his opponent out he will have
his reputation dimne1. while on the
other hand If CARPENTER holds his
own he will be accounted winner.
This is the penalty a champion must
pay in any game. For such draw
Is equivalent to a defeat.

Passenger Steamship Rates.
How to Get to Europe at Pre.War
Cost.
From Shipping.

An American who has no objection to
mingling with the plain folks Of all the
world can get to Europe now In a one
class liner for s125, which is the same
amount Of money he would have nad to
pay before the war for first class ac-
commodation, minimum rate, IN ships Of
the class Of the Caronia or Carmania of
the Cunard fleet. Now, however, first
class accommodation in the Caronia or
Carmania costs minimum Of s225.
The one class liner, as illustrated by
the big new American liner Minnekahds,
which sailed the other day for Ham,
burg with 1000 passengers. and the new
Cunarder Albania. running between New
York and Liverpool, has as fine accom-
moda tions as some of the old time liners
of the SOS, and it is possible to get
two berth rooms in airy positions on the
shelter deck by the payment of q little
more than s125. Many Americans who
cannot afford to pay the tall rates Of
the finer ships are patronizng these
ships Of democracy" and the Minne-
kahda and Albania took a large num-
Der.
To go to England by ships Of the
Caronia class he cannot get a cheaper
rate .han s225, two passengers in a
room. IL he is extravagant he may
spend as high as $3.50 for good perth
In the Caronia, and IL he is luxurious
he may pay for a regal suite In the
Cunarder Aqultania or the White Star
liner Olympic from $4,000 to about
$1,000.
The luxurious suite is not so. expen-
sive as 1t appears to be If eight persons
club together and take it. Then Il
means about $1,000 divided into eighthr.
There are other fine suites that voyagers
who don't mind the expense may get
aboard the Olympia and Aquitania and
the French liner France for prices rang
ing from s1.050 to about $4,000. The
lowest priced berth in these great ships
may be obtain ii for s275. or rather,
might have boen obtained. as all the
minimum berths are engaged until the
end of the summer.

For Dummy Bombing.
Use Cameras, Says the Inventor OF
the Bliss.Leavitt Torpedo.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Airplane
attacks upon a helpless hulk do not III
the slightest degree help to solve the
status of the battleship. over twenty
years ago the doom of the battleship
was pronounced because of the advent OF
the automobile torpedo. the torpedo boat
and the submarine. 1t is quite apparent
that an attack made by these weapons
upon an undefended hulk would quickly
send It to Davy Jones. Defend that hulk
with destroyers and tho result has been
found to be quite the reverse.
1t is manifestly impossible to conduct
test with loaded bombs and at ths
same time provide the target with ade-
quate defence.
I herewith outline a war game which
| believe would furnish a real test:
1. Bombing planes should carry
dummy bombs marked for Identification.
They should also carry a timing device
which would record the exact time when
each bomb was launched.
2. The target should be equipped with
anti-aircraft camera guns (the sunners
being under sufficient protection) and
also with time recorder which would
register the exact time each gun was
fired.
3. Defending planes should also carry
camera guns and n similar time recorder.
4. Bombs launched from plane at
any time after the camera gun records
show that plane to have been put out OK
business would not count
The actual destructive effect OF a
bomb is of course matter Of indepen-
dent test. FRANK NJ. LEAv1TT.

A Foolish Interstate War.

Motor car reciprocity among the

American freedom. 1t has been q
reminder to the people that they
have none Of the frontier discomforts
which annoy the traveller in Europe.
Lately there has been some i'll feeling
between New York and New Jersey,
probably because of misunderstand.
ing which should have been straight
ened out in five minute conversation
between the officials Of the States.
Unfortunately, in view of the ex.
periences Of many New York motor.
lists across the Hudson on Sunday
some of the minor officials of New
Jersey seem determined to pursue the
quarrel and to hold up, arrest or 9th
erwise inconvenience persons whose
offences are at the worst Of the trivial
and technical kind, such as failing to
produce an owners license as we'll as
a drivers.
The busiest season o. Interstate mo
tor traffic is abou. to start. Thou
sands of motorists will be wishing to
go to resorts in New Jersey or be
yond it on vacation bent in the next
two months. There will be also the
regular week end and Sunday traffic,
which is great in summer. This week

between DEMPSEY and CARPENTER
And Of course there will be also q
large summer flow of New Jersey
tourists through New York on their

Great States cannot afford to bs

Jersey should permit any persona

HYLAN WILL NOT AGREE
TO MORE NEW SCHOOLS
Will Sfond on Programme De-
cided Upon by Board.

Mayor Hylan announced yesterday at
a meeting of the finance and budget
committee of the Board of Estimate
that his administration will authorize
the construction of no more school build
ings this year other than the programme
already decided upon by the Board Of
Education. He made that announcement
when School Commissioner Harry B.
Chambers sought to have two high
schools built in The Bronx.
The Mayor proposes to go slow also
upon other new construction. At his in
stance a request for $4,000 to complete
the Flatbush avenue wing of the Brook
lyn public library central building was
laid over for one week, as was also an
application for an appropriation of
s1,50o.000 10 build a new wing on the

Oil, Lumber and Fordney.

Chairman FoRDNEY of the House
Ways and Means Committee tells the
domestic oil producers who have In
sisted upon a duty on imported oil
that 1t must and will 60 on the free
list. In this action he Is as sound as
an American dollar.
An adequate supply of oil is essen
tial to the welfare of this country.
The store of our domestic wells can
not be excessively drained without
endangering the future of the nation.
Every gallon of foreign oil consumed
in the United States means a gallon
saved of our gradually disappearing
oil supply.
But II Chairman FoRDNEY is 80
tender Of the pressing oil needs Of
the country, why is he so strikingly
Indifferent to the even more pressing
lumber needs OF the country?
The domestic shortage Of oil sup
ply is nothing like the lumber short
age. There Is oil enough in this
country, II we are foolish enough to
exhaust 1t In few years. to take
care of our domestic needs and more.
There is even oil enough, if we go on
letting 1t sell abroad as we are doing,
but should not do. to take care Of
some of the present foreign needs for
while. But there is not lumber
enough in this country to supply
the home demand by a wide open
margin, even If we slaughter every
available tree and make a waste of
the forests that are left to us.
The country cannot get along With
out lumber. The country cannot es-
cape disaster II we strip our forests
bare. We must have foreign lumber
in large quantity or we must suffer
heavily for lack Of it. Yet Chairman
FoRDNEY declares there must and will
be a terrific duty on lumber to bleed
the American public white with the
cost Of ending the housing shortage
in the immediate present. And over
consuming our own lumber must eX-
pose the country to the perils Of lum-
ber destitution in the near future.
Why so right-so right economi-
cally, politically and patriotically
about oil, Mr.. FoRDNEY, but so
wrong-so shockingly wrong in every
way about lumber? What is the
secret, Mr. FoRpNEY?

Germany's Growing Payrolls.

German wage earners are going
back TO work in larger and larger
numbers. When they get on the job
they make the chips fly. This is how
they are restoring the industrial ca
pacity of their country, meeting the
indemnity payments their Govern
ment must make and paving the way
for lasting trade power in the mar
kets of the world.
The workers Of the United States
more than any others must face this
speeding up German competition.
They must face 1t in markets abroad
which have been absorbing the export
products of millions of American
workmen because the German ex-
porter has been trained and success
full foreign trader for decades. They
must face 1t here in our own country
because on the whole international
map this is the biggest and richest
market in which Germany may ex.
change her goods into the gold, the
materials and the credits on which
she has set out to rebuild her domes-
tic production, her sales abroad and
her fleets of commerce. She will
strain every muscle to capture trade
here under our own noses.
This country cannot match German
low cost goods in any neutral market
or even in our own market with high
cost goods-high cost not only be-
cause OF imitation wages that still
obtain in the United States but be-
cause of low speed production for
the wages that are paid.
The life or death Of the American
export business depends on the pro-
ductivity Of American industry. The
life or death of the American domes-
tic business depends on the produc-
tivity Of American industry. The pro-
ductivity Of American industry de-
pends on whether American wage
earners are slackers or workers.
