SALOONS AND PROPERTY

The New York Mail discerns in
the assertion that the American pas
senger ships will be driven off the
ocean, unless they are permitted to
sell alcoholic liquor in their smoking
rooms, a familiar ghost which has be
fore now been formed from the fumes
of alcohol This specter, according
to the Mail, is the old theory that the
destruction of the liquor traffic was
going to render valueless all prop
erty which had been occupied by the
participants in that traffic. Time was
when, in cities, two and some times
three street intersections were occu-
pied by saloons, and at the height of
the prohibition agitation it was in
sisted shat the unhappy landlords of
these corner buildings were to be
bankrupted if their saloon keeping
tenants found their business de-
stroyed. The cry of property rights
was raised then to block the progress
of prohibition much as the cry of per-
sonal liberty is now raised in an effort
10 avert the enforcement of the law.
Every one knows that six months
after the prohibition amendment went
into effect careful investigation in
most of the cities affected showed
that the very eligible corners, from
which the groggeries had been eject
ed, had been eagerly seized, frequently
at higher rentals, BY a very much su.
perior class Of tenants. High rentals.
we may say in passing, are not neces-
sarily a sign of advantage to the
many, however desirable they may be
to the few who own the property, but
even where the rental which the sa-
loon-keeper was able, because of the
enormous and often illegal gains of
MS calling, to pay to the landlord was
beyond the power of his successor to
pay, it was found that the adjacent
property was improved and its rents
increased because OF the advantage to
the neighborhoOd caused by the dis
appearance of the saloon.

These are merely facts of recent his

The lesson they teach is applicable
also to the American ships on the

Woodring Is
Fastest Man In
The World
BY HENRY L. FARRELL

NEW YORK, May 16.-Whiia
sprint records and field marks have
been consistently shattered in the past
two years, the quarter-mile record of
AZ As seconds made by the great Tel
Meredith in 1915 is one of the few
that have remained beyond the reach
of the present day super-stars.
How long Meredith will remain as
the fastest man of all times at 440-
yards seem to be up to the willing
ness of Allen Woodring. of Syracuse
University. the Olympic 200 meters
champion, to go out for it.
Not excepting Charley Paddock, the
Pacific Coast flyer. Woodring has
been regarded as the fastest man in
the werld today at 220 yards, but ow-
ing to his rather slight build he had
not been considered record-making
possibility at a quarter-mlle until the
Penn relay games recently.
Running as anchor man for SYRIA
cuse in the one-mile college relay
championship, Woodring got away
seven yards behind Bill Stevenson,
Princeton captain and the national
quarter-mile champion. Woodring
ran him off his feet and won the race
after doing a quarter in the unorricial
time of AZ AS. equalling the worlds
record.
Considering the fact that the timers
all caught him the same and that the
event was run late in the afternoon,
when the track was chopped to pieces
by two days of incessant pounding and
cutting, the performance was phenom-
onal.
If he maintains the form he had in
that race, there is little doubt that
Woodring will be able to make a new
record for the quarter on the Har-
ward track in June, If he goes out for

GOLF HAS MANY MORE
CONVERTS AT SPOKANE

SPOKANE. Wash, May 4 16.-Golf
in Spokane this year boasts 25 per
cent more converts than last year,
with the immediate result that two of
the three greens of the city are be-
ing standardized, and the third length
ened, at an aggregate cost of nearly
$4,000 for land and improvements.
Golfers Of the Manito Golf club
have given up the nine-hole green
leased by them for a number of years,
and have bought new green site at
cost of $4,000. Work of building
the links is already in progress. Play
on the first nine will start probably
sometime in July. and the second nine
will be finished in time for the 1923
season,
Ground for an additional nine holes
on the Downriver municipal links has
been purchased by the park board for
$500. The second nine, completing
the 1s-hole standard course, will be
finished by December 1. 1922. Local
golfers contributed s25OO of the pur-
chase price as community gift, the
board not being able to include the
first payment on the land in this years
budget.
The upper nine of the Spokane
Country club course is being length
ened about 800 yards The course al
ready was standard but the increased
distance is expected to help improve
the play.
Plans are being made for organiza-
tion of women golfers on the munich
pal course.
