That Disputed Trotting Decision,

When the management of the To-
ledo Grand Circuit race meeting over
ruled the judges and declared bets of
on the Fort Miami Stake recently It
established an unfortunate precedent
and gave the world an example OF
how not to conduct sport which has
long been popular In Ohio.
1t was case OF the tail wagging
the dog, and the matter will no doubt
come up before the governors Of the
Grand Circuit, of which Toledo is a
member. The judges are supreme IN
the conduct Of racing. II is the con-
cern OF the management to supply the
track and the money to pay its obli-
cations. There its duty ends.
Ever since horse racing began
there has been faultfinding with de-
cisions by the judges, but the fact re-
mains that the judges are best situ-
ated of all at the track to determine
the winner, as they are on the line
In the main they are competent and
have had years of service. The pre-
siding judge at Toledo, JOSEPH Nc
GRAw,. is a man OF that description,
and those who know him were not
surprised that he and his associates
left the stand as soon as their de-
cision was nullified.
In yielding to the complaints Of the
spectators. some of whom may have
been Influenced by their wagers, the
Toledo management has paved the
way for fresh outbursts every time
there is a close finish. 1t is probable
that the affair would have blown over
in a few minutes but for the action
OF McDEvrTT, the driver Of Prince
Loree, who is reported to have ad-
dressed the crowd when the judges
ignored his protest.
II the late ROBERT PrNRERTov had
been alive and In charge Of the polio
ing OF the Toledo meeting the protes-
tants never would have reached the
Judges stand. Such disturbances are
sAIdom seen on the running turf and
tne protesting of judges decision
by Jockey would bring swift pun
tshment from the authorities.

The railroad executives so far are
not able to agree with President
HARDING's strike settlement proposal
in respect OF a feature 1t contains,

escapably cardinal moral issue. In
the last analysis they might not be
able to agree with the proposal as a
whole IL that feature were to be held
inseparable from the general pro-
posal.
This moral issue is the binding
obligation into which the executives
have entered with the men, old and
new. now standing by the roads.
These men are there, sticking it out,
old men and new men, under the
solemn pledges Of the employers
that they would not lose their places.
would not lose their first seniority
rights, would not lose any of the
privileges and benefits acquired by
them and guaranteed to them, strike
settlement or no strike settlement.
In so far as this moral issue, this
sacred obligation OF the roads to their
faithful, loyal men now at their posts
and keeping the railroads in opera
tion in the teeth of the efforts OF the
strikers to tie them up. is determin-
ing factor--in so far as this might
cause the executives definitely and
finally TO disagree with the Presi-
dents proposal, President HARDING
himself could only respect and honor
them for their stand.
The American people would no,

If Our Ship Subsidy Passes.

CEcu. B. HARMswoRTH, British I'm
der Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
explains to the House of Commons
that the Customs Consolidated act of
1853 empowers the British Govern
ment to impose such duties on for
eign tonnage or goods as may be
necessary to countervail any disad-
vantage British shipping or trade
may suffer from preferences granted
by other Governments to their yes
sells or goods. The same matter has
been discussed in the British Journal
OF Comm cree, the great shipping
newspaper of the United Kingdom,
with reference to what Great Britain
will do II the United States Govern
ment imposes discriminating duties
In favor Of our vessels or otherwise
protects and sustains American ship
ping as against foreign shipping.
In the Customs CoRsolidated act Of
1853, the British publication has
pointed out, Clause CCCXXIv. en-
powers the British Government by
executive order to exercise any re-
striction, prohibition or other circum-
stance on or against foreign vessels
entering or leaving British ports as
may be imposed by any country on or
against British vessels entering or
leaving It's ports. This clause, how
ever, appears upon reading not to
cover matters to which much atten-
tion is given in the proposed Amer
lean subsidy act. We do not propose
to do much OF anything to anybody
else that will not apply to our own
ships, with the exception OF immi-
grant traffic.
AS for Clause CCCXXv., also re-
ferred to by the English publication,
It has largely to do with special GUS
toms duties and remission of duties
rather than payments to ships.
Goods imported in American vessels
would under our proposed subsidy
act pay the same customs duties as
goods imported in British ships. The
aid to the American ships would
come in a percentage of the customs
collections which would go out OF
the Treasury TO American shipping
Undoubtedly this would be an indi-
rect discrimination In favor of Amer
ican vessels as to financial returns to
them, yet 1t would leave British ves-
sells as free as ever to carry the car.

away from the British ships for

deficits as now.
As for Clause CCCxxvI.. similarly
quoted by the English publication
this seems to be directed largely
against foreign built ships put un.
