Washington.-A meeting of eNecu'

New York to consider n plan for set
tling the strike now in progress, Il. De
witt Cuyler, chairman of the Associa-

here. after conference with Presi-
dent Harding. Mr.. Cuyler added, how
ever, that mo definite basis for strike
settlement was ready to be placed be
fore the meeting. His conference with
the President. he said, had been devot-
ed to a general survey of the situa-
ton.
While Mr. Cuyler was positive In his
statement that the basis for proposed
settlement of the strike had not been
definitely drawn up. earlier reports in
dicated that ut least Il tentative plan
had resulted from the conference be
tween President Harding and leaders
Of the various railroad labor groups.
President Harding has made no spe-
clfic request to the railroad executives,

brought forward at the conference

John l.. Lewis, head of the United

that he had every reason to believe
that an Interstate joint conference OF

Union leaders made known that as

an interstate conference to make n
basic wage scale possible, call for
the meeting will be issued mt once
Such call, it was said, may come any
day.
The statement of President Lewis
said that at is undoubtedly true that
to all purposes and effect the mine
workers have won their present
strike. and 1t is almost universally
recognized in industrial and financial
circles throughout the country that nc
wage reductions can be applied in the

Why Drag In Poverty?
Some Feminine Biographers Of Art.
lists Are Criticized.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Can any
OF your readers give an adequate ex-
planation of the following fact:
In most 'writeups by ladies OF great
artists of the brush or the chisel CLEAN
from the rhapsodical eulogies accorded
the subject that the writer lays special
stress on the paltry fact of the artist
having been poor and. next, having had
to earn his living before he achieved
success as an artist.
Now this is such drivel that it ought
to be made an offense to use it in any
writeup.
What has poverty to do with art.
Why, an artist is born such, rich or
poor. Poverty is no glorious state for
q citizen to be in; rather 1t is n dis
grace to the country that poverty should
exist.
The greatest artists were born rich.
IL they happened to be poor the worse
for them. However. they would have
developed into greater artists had they
been born of wealthy families, thus en-
joying early training. Shakespeare and
Micheiangelo were rich from their birth

countries which are interested In the
matter.
But if LENINE thinks that his proc
lamation will tend to increase the
differences between the Allies he is
N error. Great Britain. France and
Italy may have very vivid recollec-
tions of imperial Russia's designs on
Constantinople and they do not see a
very great change from this attitude
in Soviet Moscow. Again, If he thinks
that his espousal OF KEMAL's side OF
the controversy will be especially
favored by the Turkish leader he is
also mistaken. 1t was different
thing to bargain with Kemal whose
outlook was not beyond the hills of
Angora TO a Kemal on the shores Of
the Dardanelles. The white bear
whether his trainer is the Car or the
Soviet, covets the warm waters of the
Egean. And KEMAL knows that in
the end the demands of Great Britain
would be far less severe than those
of Soviet Russia.
LENINE should get in touch with
the modern world.

The Polo Grounds Warriors.

On the eve Of the world series the
offensive strength OF the New York
National League team may be rated
as quite as great as that of the
Yankees. Statistics prove little, for the
batting averages OF the Giants were
made against National League pitch
ers. In pitching, however, the Giants
are weaker than they have been since
McGEAw took over the management.
Through the last few weeks Nc
GRAw has directed every play in the
field by signals from the bench. Some
of the Giants resent the idea that the
manager should do all their thinking
for them. Willing or unwilling, Nc.
GRAw nodded the men into team
absolutely under his control and di-
rection. The Giants, with faltering
pitching staff, won their pennant long
before the Yankees captured theirs.
Opposed to the Giants is group Of
comparatively disorganized and tenn
peramental stars. The Yankees are
inclined to declare a little commune
of their own in time of stress and to
map their strategy by popular vote,
after the fashion of XENoPHoN's army.
But the Yankees have what is con-
ceded to be the most formidable pitch
ing staff in baseball. Will general
ship prevail against it?
Baseball strategy is fairly elusive
thing. A manager sends in a pinch
hitter and tells him to hit. If the
batter does hit it is good strategy. If
he happens to strike out it is poor
strategy. A manager orders batter
to bunt If the bunt succeeds it was
the right thing to do. II the bunt
starts a double play it obviously was
the wrong thing to do.
If the Yankees should win the indi-
vidual stars will accept the credit. II
the Giants upset what the sporting
rnen call the dope JOHN MoGRAw will
accept congratulations with becom-
ing modesty. And he will have
earned them, for it is the hardest task
in the world to make professional
baseball player. filled with self-im-
portance and with his mind on his
own personal records, become a mere
cog in a baseball machine.

The Green Flash at Sunset.
A Phenomenon About Which Scien.
tific Men Are Not In Accord.
From Nature


When the sun sets behind a distant
and clear horizon its last, rays disap-
pear with an emerald green flash. The
coloration is due TO the refraction OF
light in our atmosphere by which the
SUMS image is raised through about half
degree. the elevation Increasing from
the red to the violet end of the spec
trum. AS tho violet and 70 some extent
the blue rays arc absorbed by the layer
of air through which the light has to
pass It is the blush green part Of the
spectrum that is dominant at the ulti-
mate moment OF sunset
This seems clear enough and even
obvious. But there are always certain
minds that distrust the obvious, not al
ways TO the disadvantage of science,
and others which rebel against COM
monplace explanation Of a striking ef-
feet. Imagination is always ready to
supply more or less fanciful alternatives
leading 70 controversies and correspond.
encc in scientific journals.
In this manner n considerable amount
OF literature on the green flash has ac-
cumulated and this Is now collected by
Professor M. II. Mulder in volume OF
40 pages. Tho two serious alternative
explanations that have been offered to
replaca the one based on the dispersion
of light in our atmosphere might be dis
missed in one sentence. The green nash
cannot be the after image In an eye
fatigued by the red light OF the SUM- be-
cause IL appears at sunrise as well as az
sunset; nor can u derive its color from
