1t Will Not Hurt Them.

Some Of our most worthy and
highly valued friends are much
stirred up because $1,000 persons of
all callings, trades and professions
are spending s1,500.o00, more or less,
to-day for the privilege of watching
Mr.. DEMPSEY and Mr.. CARpENTrER
box under professional and legal re-
strictions which will rob their exhibit
tion of any profound significance.
These friends-and we value their
good opinion highly-ask us to be-
come indignant or distressed, as the
case may be, with them.
We cannot.
To call the Jersey City affair a
fight" is to make joke of English
TO classify 1t as debasing is to attach
to it fictitious Importance. To re-
gard it as a menace TO the youth of
the land Is to misunderstood it's
nature completely.
When, in obedience to primal in
stinct, infuriated small boys beat
each other with bare knuckles, or
frenzied little girls tear each others
hair, they are infinitely more brutal
than Mr.. CARPENTER and Mr.. DEMp-
sEY will be to each other in the en-
counter of this afternoon, for which
they have carefully and skilfully
prepared. The spectacle of two men
rolling in the dust in unscientific but
earnest struggle is infinitely more
degrading and more discouraging
than is the spectacle OF two highly
trained athletes doing something
they have spent all their lives in
learning to do.
AS for the $1,000 spectators, they
will not be hurt by the show they
pay so much money to see, and they
would not be benefited II some un-
looked for Intervention OF fate should
prevent them from seeing It. Every
day in the ordinary course OF life
the observant ones among them see
sights much more distressing, much
more likely to corrupt their minds.
than anything that will happen un-
der Mr.. R1cKARp's able management:
and the unobservant ones will see
nothing anyway.

What Shall He Do?
A Man With Time to Ramble Seeks
Advice and Assistance.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: BUSH
ness man has been advised by his physi-
clan to quit business for a year or TWO
and suggests travel for a change.
This man has had no travel expert
ence to speak OF. having had his nose
to the grndstone far more than has
been necessary and has now found out
his mistake.
He has had wrong notions about
money and material things. For long
time he did not believe that cant about
money not being everything, but really
thought It came mighty near being
everything. and thought that the rela-
tion of money to life was so close that
ways come to the front In defence OF
money; said It's traducers were legion
and believed they were mostly folks who
had none.
He had the notion that wealth meant
progressive civilization, that civilization
means education and the latter means
appreciation of all that's beautiful and
humane and decent In life, and that
appreciation brought us close up to the
accepted token of energy and industry
and that it is only by our ability to
climb or break the barriers that we
prove we are entitled to possess money;
that the possession of it eliminates the
worries of the living. &c.
He now finds, rather late-he is 40
that this is a cold blooded proposition
and that he has lost a great deal in
life He feels that the real. worthwhile
things are of the spiritual not the ma
terial He now wishes to recede, grace
fully If he can. from the material and
get on the spiritual plane.
He wishes to spend two years in
travel. to read fine books and perchance
to study music. but is at a loss as to
a choice of instrument.
Where shall he go and how can he
do It on a limit of $4,000 year, with
no ties?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Get Rid of the Dead Loss Ships.

Riding idle in Pacific and Atlantic
coast harbors are 2S7 wooden ships
which the United States Shipping
Board is going to try to sell on bids
received between now and the last
working day Of the month. This is
good business. 1t is always good
business to get rid of a venture that
cannot be operated at a profit, that
there is no hope of operating at a
profit, but that must be maintained
at a heavy expense even when lying
at anchor or tied up to a wharf.
If the Shipping Board could not
find a bidder for the wooden vessels
whose offer was worth considering,
or IL 1t could not figure out how 1t
ever would be able to use the dead
loss ships or to get anybody to buy
them, it would be justified in break
ing them up and splitting them into
firewood and kindling IL by dispos.
ing Of them in that way anything
could be realized on them.
II the ships could not even be turned
into usable fuel without further loss
in the conversion the Shipping Board
would be justified in towing them out
to sea as straight business propo-
sition and sinking them a thousand
fathoms deep.
If there should be no possible way
in which 2S7 wooden ships, which
may have taken out of the public
purse from s50,0OO,OOO to s1OO ,ooO..
600, could be disposed OF to put some
thing OF that vast sum back into the
national Treasury. then at least It
should be made impossible for those
ships to go on dragging more money
out Of the pockets Of the taxpayers.

Muscles on a Strike.
Explanation Of Serious Disorders
Peculiar to Some Occupations.

Physician in London Daily Nal.
When the brain calls upon any par
ticular group OF muscles to perform the
same action over and over again they
are apt to show their dissatisfaction by
declaring strike. That is to say, un-
less they are at once rested cramp sets
in. making the performance of the par
ticular motion either very painful or
impossible.
Among the hardest workers In the
body are the arm. forearm and finger
muscles. and 1t is this group which
most often refuses to work.
The we'll known instance of writer's
cramp, to which clerks are often sub
1ect affords us the most typical exam
pie. This Is no longer so common since
the almost universal adoption OF the
typewriter. But although the occurrence
OF the true scrivener's palsy has d.
minished very much. the excessive use
of the typewriter has been found to
bring on a similar affection.
Those engaged In any craft which
calls for the constant repetition OF one
muscular movement are liable to fall
victims 20 these cramps. Thus the COM
positor IL apt TO ffnd that his fingers
can no longer pick out the type at
the usual rate. Cigarette rollers get
sort OF paralysis of the muscles OF
the hand through constant use. Even
dairymaids do not escape. The strain
on the muscles In milking Is considera-
BILE and some suffer from a mixers
cramp. which makes their occupation
impossible.
The affection is. ~ A-sarse. not con-
fined to the muscles OF the .pper limb
alone. and almost any group OF muscles
may be affected. Ballet dancers who
are constantly on tiptoe are very prone
10 cramps In the calves of the legs. and
cornet players may have to give UP their
playing owing to the tongue muscles re-
fusing to flick out the notes any longer.
watchmakers are often affected. as
the little circular muscle which sur
rounds the eye and enables them to
hold their magnifying glass screwed in
Ia not immune from this troublesome
compldin..
Fortunately overuse alone is not
enough to set upi these cramps anxiety.
III health and above all, the inheritance
of neurotic temperament, contribute
to their establishment once established
they are very apt to become chronic or
to occur az frequent intervals.
Complete rest is an obvious sine qua
non in their treatment, and herein lies
the tragedy OF the so-called professional
spasms, as they often affect those who
can III afford. to cease, even Temporal
rily, their daiN toll.

SATURDAY, JULY 2. 1921.
Chief Justice Taft.

THE NEW YORK HERALD would not
be fair to the ideals and faith of the
American people and it would not be
honest with itself If it did not frankly
deplore the appointment Of ex-Presi'
dent TAFT to be Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States.
This carries not the slightest re-
Election upon Mr.. TAFT either as a
man or as a public figure for more
than a quarter of a century in the
numerous posts he has filled from the
smallest Offices in Ohio to the Chief
Magistracy of the nation.
And, let it be said, THE NEW York
HERALD takes exception to the charge
made openly and bitterly in the
United States Senate that this is
political appointment in the ordinary
meaning of the term. 1t is anything
but that. Compassion, not politics,
undoubtedly is the inspiration of an
appointment which could cost a null
titude of votes but make very few.
But the simple truth Of the matter
is that there was no call from the SUBJ
lime Institution Of the Supreme Court
itself for Mr.. TAFT to take its head
ship, for which he has not been
adapted by his career, for which he Is
not suited by his temperament. There
was no call for him from the nation,
whatever his engaging qualities and
past services. There was no call for
him for that most sacred Of judicial
posts from any source except a SYM
pathetic personal fellowship, regret
full OF the melancholy fate which at
tends the retirement Of our Presi-
dents when they do not possess the
intellectual brilliance and profes-
sional mastery of Benjamin Harri-
son, the rugged dominance of a
Grover Cleveland or the powerful
traits and richly varied assets of a
Theodore Roosevelt.
1t seems, indeed, to be the destiny
of other types of our retired Presi-
uC4Lo " Dc tdSI dHu icll lOI-
saken. 1t is a disgrace to America
that this should be so. 1t is a thing
to stir the wrath Of friendship and
to move the feelings of humanity.
It is a wrong which must be cor
rected by the nation IL ever it is to
do its duty to its Presidents as its
Presidents have done their duty to
the nation.
Nevertheless, this national sin OF
omission ought not to betray Chief
Executive of the United States.

were paid for the best plays from the
pens of the theatres writer's.
OF course these outlays exercised
no apparent effect on the noble art
of the moving picture. Pretty girls
smiled or wept and wore their curls
bobbed or tied with a ribbon. Other
screen types continued in about the
same estate they had always known.
Interior decoration grew more sump-
tuous. Toilets looked, II possible, still
more expensive. Common sense re-
mained as coy. however. as imagina-
tion. They were just the same old
pictures. The preeminence in panto-
mime of two or three artists re-
mained unique.
But the golden glow from the treas.
urer's Office was. over all the scene.
Where money was so recklessly dis
tributed there must be brilliancy.
1t did not seem as if all the glitter
could come from the steady flow of
coin of the realm. The closest search.
however, revealed no other shining
light. Steadily the glow lighted up
the industry and art from Hollywood
to New York and back again. 1t
was always the same old glow. 1t
never changed. 1t came only from
the cashiers office.
Now there is to be retrenchment.
The screen drama is to be business
like. Expenditures will be cut to the
bone. And the screens greatest glory
departs. IT will no longer be possible
to stun the gasping spectator by tell
ing him-or her-of the thousands
that go every week to this mime or
that author, or by naming the sums
that have been used up by making
this or that cinema. There will be a
regime of industrial economy. May
be the result will be something more
than has been attained
heretofore. Certainly the harvest was
meagre enough in art, even when it
was watered by shower of gold.
1t could not have been less satisfac-
tory. Now the intelligence displayed
in the business administration may
be discernible also in what is called
the artistic side of the industry.
There may then be on all sides cause
for congratulation in the change.

it. On behalf OF the Quincy Stable
it is stated that the colt was sold in
good faith. and that the stable has
no interest in him now. And 80 the
matter stands.
1t is not a good thing for the turf
or the breeding industry that this
dispute should have come up, but the
issue having been raised it ought to be
decided on it's merits. In the mean
time the horse is standing in his
stable, his engagements neglected and
his future clouded. He has S150,000
worth of races ahead of him this
year alone. He ought to have a
chance to show his quality in them.

Harvard's New Service.

One of the admirable results OF the
visit to France which the Harvard
Glee Club is now making will be the

less naturally than regrettably has

understanding. This error is the be-
