Arts Great Need.
Wanted, n Means to Help Talent and
Discourage the Incompetent.

To THE New YORK HERALD: Now that
greater era of fine arts is promised
US, with reported increase of attendance
at museums and galleries and a temple
to be devoted to music. painting, drama
and poetry under consideration. why not
once more revive the cause Of the strug-
Cling artist? There should be some
means to keep many thousands of indi-
viduals from trying to make q profess
sion Of art and at the same time to
keep a few hundred persons of great
talent from starvation and obscurity.
Such bequests as have been made
thus far have by no means solved the
problem and the productive art power
of the country remains at a low ebb.
A court of merits, composed of the finest
academicians, not mere technicians but
men and women of broad vision. should
be available for beginner and struggler
alike. A. c. j.

Grass Fires in Town.
Forest Fires on n Small Scale Make
Firemen Work Hard.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD. Forest
fires In New Jersey and on Long Island
have attracted a good deal of atten-
tion recently, but those In the upper
part of Manhattan and In the remote
sections OF Queens, Kings and The
Bronx have been little heard of, prin-
cipally because OF the excellent work
done by the firemen In subduing them
before they had chance to spread
Many of them have been dangerous be-
cause of the infiammable material IN
their path, such as fences, billboards
shanties and frame houses.
Grass fires, as the firemen call them
have been making life miserable for the
firehghters of these sections for the
last two months. They spring up sud
denly and in some cases two or three
have been burning at the same time
requiring a special call for apparatus
Gently the grass on Fort George Hill
blazed up and an alarm brought all the
apparatus assigned to that call. Their
another fire near Dyckman street was
discovered and a special call was sen'
in to the engine on Bailey avenue. The
firemen from this company were re.
quired ITO work continuously for FIVE
hours before they we're able to put out
the blaze. This gives an idea Of wha'
these grass fires mean in labor.

Cermany's Ambassador Arrives.

With the arrival in this country OF
DR.. OTTo LUDWIG WIEDFELDr, the re-
Gently appointed German Ambassador
to Washington, Germany has repre-
sentative in the United States for the
first time since the departure of
Count JOHANN HEINRICH Won BERN
|sToRFF early in 1917. The American
Ambassador to Germany, ALANsoN
B. HoUGHToN, has already been re-
ceived at Berlin and the coming of
DIR. WIEDFELDT completes the last
span in the bridge reerected between
the United States and Germany and
marks the restoration of the rela-
tions between the two nations to the
pre-war basis.
DR.. WIEDFELDT is business man
and not politician. 1t might be
difficult to say exactly how he stands
with the present Coalition Govern
ment, but he made his acceptance OF
the post dependent upon the un-
qualified approval of the German
Foreign Minister. DR.. RATHENAU.
His political affiliations are more
with the Peoples Party than any
other party and he has the support
Of most of the industrial leaders,
including HUGo SHINES.
From the Social Democrats and
Centrists, the two chief parties of
the Coalition, there were a number
of candidates for the Washington
post. But Germany under the Impe-
rial Government had her experience
with trained diplomats-counts
princes and titled millionaires-men
who knew all there was to be known
of world politics and international
diplomacy. She made choice char
acteristic OF the times and perfectly
in keeping with her most urgent
needs. She selected man trained
at one of her universities in eco
nomics. who, when put to the prac-
tical test of life, attained high sue
cess in the industrial world.
DR.. WIEDFELDT brings to his post a
peculiar fitness. He knows America
from few months spent here before
the war; he knows the world from
his service in foreign countries as
representative of large German en-
terprises and as counselor of the I'M
perial japanese State Railway. He
knows industrial Germany, for he
held the chief directorship of the
Krupp organization, the greatest in
dustrial position in Germany and
one requiring from it's incumbent un-
usually high executive qualities. He
has held several offices under the
German Government and through
his earnest study of German politics
and economies he is as thoroughly
acquainted with Germany's Govern
ment and business as any man in the
nation. He comes to Washington,
perhaps, more as a commercial repre-
sentative of Germany than as her
purely political representative.
Germany needs American business
and American help in her efforts at
economical recovery. DR.. WIEDFELDT's s
duties will require high degree Of
tactfulness and common sense. The
German Foreign ONCE has to-day the
most serious function of all her min
istries in that it largely holds the
key to her communication and COM
mercial intercourse with the world.
In giving the American mission to
DR.. wIEDFELDT Germany seems to
have selected man especially well
fitted for carrying out this ideal.

The other day happened to be in the
neighborhood where the old Walton
house used to stand. and it took some
stretch of the imagination TO see the
place as wished to see II. But at last
the old house did loom up, large and
heavy. with its broad stoop. its heavily
trimmed and carved copings, and the
small dormer windows just behind the
broad white rail of the lower roof.
1t was in 1742 that old William Wal
ton built his house. He selected the
top of what was then known as Cherry
Hill and his ship yard was just below
on the river front above Peck Slip. He
was also a ship master. Although the
foundation Of his great fortune was
laid on the Spanish Main he was seldom
alluded to as Captain but more often as
Boss Walton of the ship yard. One can
easily see the old man winding his way
up the grassy slope to his mansion for
the noontime dinner. The view to the
west at that time must have been un-
obstructed down the little valley across
the fresh Water or Collect Pond to the
hills beyond.
about 1898, this section was ultra Eng
lish. The Cherry Garden at the end Of
Cherry Lane was kept by a Mr. Sack
EFT, who catered to English sentiment
and tastes, and. the place was celebrated
for It's fine old Madeiras and Jamaica
rum. If one wanted schnapps one could
be better served elsewhere.
The elder Walton married in the
Beelcman family about 1871 and should
have been a patriot but he died about
1853, leaving his son William, who had
married in the De Lancy family. the
ship yard and mansion in Queen street.
Young Walton soon became one of the
merchant princes of his day and his
ships sailed to all parts Of the world.
During the Revolution and through the
seven years occupancy of New York by
the British the Walton house was
famous for its hospitality and one can
imagine the comings and goings of the
Engli5h officers and their entertainment
by the wealth and fashion Of the old
families, many of whom still gave their
allegiance to the Crown.
After the evacuation most of the Wal
tons retired to England and the prop
erty was confiscated. The section lost
much Of its English aspect. The Pres
idential mansion was at / Cherry
street and Washington lived there. The
house was originally occupied by the
Franklin family, from whom Franklin
square gets its name. At one time John
Hancock lived at No. s. and the Leggett
family at No. z. ! think in after years
William M. Tweed lived in No. S. Many
merchants built and settled in the Sec
ton, having their places of business In
lower Pearl street.
In 1928 the Walton house was used as
a hotel but was not success, not so
much on account Of the very large
rooms as because 1t was cut off from
Broadway, where the general uptown
movement was in progress and the only
way of getting to or from that thor
oughfare was by the way of the Five
Points, at that. time dangerous road
way. So the hotel trade was limited to
the water front and Brooklyn.
South street in the early days was ex-
tended out and ships were many. 1t
was a fine sight to see the long line OF
bowsprits stretching across the street
some of them very nearly touching the

Tho radio is great thing, says an En-
