Solomon's Four Mysteries.

Said old SOLOMON: There be, three
things which are too wonderful for
me, yea, four which I know not: the
way of an eagle in the air: the way
of serpent upon a rock; the way OF
a ship in the midst of the sea and
the way of man with maid"
The serpent's way of ascending
smooth and almost perpendicular
surfaces by means of his efficient ribs
has been plain to psychologists for
centuries. Probably one of SOTO.
MONS neighbors knew the secret.
The way of ship in the midst OF
the sea is no puzzle in these days OF
Leviathans. SOLOMON should have
said "the way of a shipping board in
the midst of the war;
AS for the eagle in the air. we are
only now, 2,S75 years after SOLOMON
went to sleep with his fathers, solv-
ing the mystery. The eagle knew
all about air currents and SOLOMON
didn't. The eagle is easy for the
men who make gliders. They prefer
to copy the albatross, which does
more difficult feats.
But the fourth thing that mysti-
fed the King of Israel is still giving
its students headache.

Our Courts Open to All.
A General Strike the Wrong Answer
TO the Daugherty Injunction.

To THE NEW York HERALD: 1t was
reported in your paper that a demand
was made on President Gompers to call
a convention of the American Fedora
tion of Labor for the purpose of declar-
ing a general strike OF organized labor
as protest in reply to Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty's injunction against the
railroad shopNen.
1t seems to me that the time has ar
rived when the Government should use
every power at its command to prevent
even the consideration of such a pro-
cedure as interfering with a mandate OF
the United States courts.
Any individual served with an injunc-
tion who questions its validity or legal
ity can carry his complaint to the high
est court in the land and receive relief
as a lawabiding citizen in case OF error
in its issuance.
A general strike, by whatever name
1t may be called, based on interference
with these injunctions as issued by our
courts would amount to civil war.
Deplorabe as such a state OF affairs
would be for the country at large, it is
pitful to contemplate the physical and
financial status of labor at its conclu-
sion. CHARLES L. ELLIS.

The Turk at Constantinople.

Europe is brought Unexpectedly
face to face with the seriousness OF
the Near East situation by the
rapid advance of the Turkish army
through western, Asia Minor to the
4Egean coast. Nothing could more
clearly show this than the sending
Of Field Marshal Lord PLUMER to
Constantinople to take charge OF the
defenses of that city and the Turkish
straits. KEMAL's triumphant sweep
from his capital in the heart of the
Anatolian highlands to the outskirts
OF Smyrna, the Greeks last remain
ing Asiatic stronghold, changed in
day the Greco-Turkish war from
matter for the quibbling of the
conference table to a problem calling
for the immediate Intervention of the
allied Powers.
1t is evident that the Allied Com
mission at Constantinople saw in
KrMAL's victories in Asia Minor a
danger to it's administration. With
the success or his movement against
Smyrna he will have won only the
first of the, goals which he set out to
gain. There yet remain the control
OF the straits and the Turkish capi-
4 tai. the Thracian plains and Adriano-
pie. All Of these he declared he was
l determined should be returned to
1 Turkey.
In the selection of Field Marshal
PLUMER to prepare for the exigencies
OF an attack upon Constantinople
the Allies intrusted the task to a
man peculiarly fitted to it from long
experience in the Near East.
Since 1919 he, has been the Gov
ernor of Malta. Before that he was
in command Of British forces In
Mesopotamia and the Sudan he
fought in the Boer war and distin-
guished himself by his services on
the western front. His activities have
included also several diplomatic mis-
sions In the Near East, so that his
past experience gives an assurance
Of tactful and discreet handling of
the present delicate situation.
The exact status of the Allied Com
mission at constantinople IS perhaps
not thoroughly understood. origi-
nally its mission was the policing of
the city, the suppression of conflicts
between the contending racial fac
tons and the protection of the Sui
tans Government. It was faced by
problem similar TO that which
would be precipitated by KEMAL's ad-
vance when month ago the Greeks
concentrated two divisions before the
defenses OF Tchatalja and threatened
forcibly 60 occupy Constantinople.

French and Italian troops. we're then

Two Priced Dogs Dead.
Their Owner Complains Of the Board
OF HeaIth's Methods.

To THE New York HERALD: Until re-
Gently my family was the owner OF a
rare police dog aged one year and q
faithful Boston bull aged five years. A
dog in our neighborhood was believed
to be suffering from hydrophobia.
A Board of Health representative
called at our house and against our pro-
test removed both OF our dogs. who man
ifestly were in normal health, to hold
them under observation for a period Of
ten days in the departments kennel on
Twenty fourth street. s
At the expiration OF ten days the dogs
were returned to us in pitiful condi-
tion, emaciated. neglected. unclean, both
fatally afflicted with distemper. One
lasted six days. the other expired last
week, despite the best medical aid OBJ
talnable. / personally requested one OF
the doctors connected with the depart
ment to treat the dog as he had prom
ised to do. but he refused. One dav
on FIVE different occasions l endeavored
to speak to this doctor and each time
he or his assistant abruptly hung up the
receiver when 1t was ascertained who
was speaking.
IL is desired TO know what remedy an
owner has against the action of these
men and what relief there can be in a
case like mine. where two valuable dogs
were led unnecessarily to the slaughter.
I am sure there are many people In the
city who have had similar experience.
/ hope some means can be devised
whereby others can be spared disap-
pointment and shock.

A Plan for Futile Talking.

Mayor HYLAN has presented his
own transit plan to the Board of
Estimate and has induced that body
to call five sessions at which the pub
lie is to be heard on various phases
of the scheme, which, according to
the Mayors own estimate, would cost
$500, 100000 to complete.
There can be no objection to
plenty of publicity for important civic
matters. But the public ought to
understand, before it spends its time
and mind at any of these public hear
ings, that they will be purely aca-
demic discussions.
All transportation plans for this
city must originate with the Transit
Commission. The commissions plans
are submitted to the Board of Esti-
mate. One of it's plans was sent to
the Board of Estimate last week. 1t
calls for the construction of a much
needed subway between Queens and
Brooklyn. 1t is as practical as the
Mayors plan is visionary.
If the Mayor and the Board of
Estimate were really in earnest about
improving the transportation facili
ties of New York they would take up
the Transit Commissions plans and
discuss them. instead of wasting
time with orations over "a scheme
which, even if it were possible, has
no legal standing.
If the Board of Estimate believes
that the Transit Commissions pro-
posal now before it is a poor one
why doesn't it show wherein it is
poor? If it cannot find faults in it
why does it not approve it. so that
work on the Sound to Ocean subway
can be started Immediately?
The crowd in the City Hall, it
seems painfully evident, is not look
ing for. cooperation with the only
body that has the power to originate
rapid transit plans. The Board of
Estimate has done nothing in all Of
HYLAN's five years as Mayor to help
the public to new subways. And now
it seems to be on the point of trying
to pull the wool over the public's
eyes with set of hearings which will
never get the city anywhere.

Canadian Dollar Back at Par.

The Canadian dollar has climbed
back to par and Canadian business
men and statesmen are justifiably
| pleased at the fact. AS II. B. WALKER
of the Canadian Bank of Commerce
remarks. Canada is the first of the
countries that fought in the war and
suffered currency depreciation to get
| back to normal"
Canadian bankers and other bust
ness men in analyzing the causes
bringing about this result agree on
one thing. They unanimously at
tribute it in large measure to the
influx of American money. For some
time back American money has beeQ
i. flowing into Canada at the estimated
rate of $20,000,000 a month. b Ameri-
can investments, American purchases
and, last but by no means least, an
unusually heavy tide of American
tourist travel have been pouring
American dollars into Canadian cof-
fers. Americans" remarks E. Il.
PEasE of the Royal Bank of Canada.
"are investing heavily in the Domin-
ion, making this country an export
center for distribution of their goods
to other parts of the empire and thus
benefiting by the lower tariffs" And
he cites the Ford and General Motors
investments as. typical of enterprises
which are bringing American money
into Canada. .4
Canada has been buying less in the
United States since the emergency
tariff went into effect and to that
extent has been keeping her money
at home, while on the other hand
there has been much American buy
ing of Canadian bonds. And there is
another source OF recent Canadian
prosperity. 1t comes as a consequences
of prohibition in the United States.
Liquor purchases" Mr. PEksE is
quoted as saying, ito a minor extent
are helping the dollar" Very likely
he is right, and this may apply more
particularly to the Province OF Que
bee. Yet considerable as undoubtedly
has been the flow of bootlegger money
into Canada, its share in putting the
Canadian dollar back to par must not
be overemphasized, though it cannot
be ignored. Canada is prosperous be-
cause her finances and her business
conditions and methods are sound.
This naturally greatly enhances
whatever value there may be in con-
tiguity to we'll to do and friendly
neighbor.

Glass Over Painting Annoys a Cele-
brated Critic.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: On Sun
day l made my habitual rounds at the
Metropolitan Art Museum. l discovered
that New York can be proud of the fine
examples of old masters the museum
contains.
Going through the American galleries
l noticed how one of the best land
scapes was made. almost undistinguish-
able by having a plate of glass put on
the canvas. 1t was impossible for me
to see the mountains, the rainbow, the
glorious sunset. Only the three figures
in the foreground were visible. This
glass is too much like a mirror; no
painting shows. but only myself and all
the other visitors around me were as
plain as life on the glass.
I refer to Fred Il. Churchs THE
Egean Sea-" which is a master paint
ing. ! hope the curator will take the
plate of glass away so all art lovers can
enjoy this special painting.

disposal the followers of polo in the
Argentine have found in the under
sized thoroughbreds the finest sort of
material for the game. That their
mounts have stamina as well as
speed was demonstrated on Wednes-
day at Rumson. All theories OF blood
stock breeding would be upset if this
were not the case.
With quartet Of players to match
their mounts Sonth America has a
good chance to win the polo cham
pionship. Should its representatives
fail to score the final victory they

Fine Argentine Polo Mounts.

II was not surprising to those fa-
miliar with their breeding that the
Argentine polo mounts in the match
against Shelburne showed improve
ment in speed and better form gen
orally than they displayed on reach
ing here from England,
1t took a few weeks for the South
American thoroughbreds to recover
from the ocean trip and to become
accustomed to the climate here. The
fact that the Argentine has as good
blood in its thoroughbreds as can be
found anywhere has been demon
strated by the test OF racing and 1t
| is due to frequent importations of
sires and dams OF proved quality. No
American fanciers to pay for an ex-
ceptional horse. as was shown when
Sefior UNzUE gave $26f,000 for the
American bred horse Tracery, by
Rock Sand, few years ago. This is
the record figure for thoroughbred.
Breeders in the Argentine had pre-
viously acquired the great horse CYL
lene. sire Of four Derby winners, for
S157,500. Another good horse taken
from England for their account was
the Derby winner Diamond Jubilee.
He cost s151.2o0. Craganour. dis
qualified for fouling Aboyeur in 1913,
was bought for S15O.OOO and has done
his part in improving the blood stock
OF the Argentine. IN.
