Vacationists, Take Heed!
Watch Your Health While You Are
Abroad for Pleasure.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: At the
opening of the vacation season few
words of caution should not be amiss.
These may be condensed thus:
There are two kinds of vacations
the kind that exhausts and wearies and
the kind that rests and invigorates. 1t
is easy enough to tell them apart.
Choose the latter.
See your doctor before you make your
choice OF a place. He can help you.
Be vaccinated against typhoid.
When you get to the spot. especially
II you are camping. watch carefully the
source Of your supplies of milk and
water. This is highly important.
The best vacation is that which en-
ables a person to build UP the highest
possible power of resistance to the dis
ease assaults that are sure to come
later. If 1t does not accomplish, that 1t is
time wasted, or worse than wasted; but
If it does, it is a success of high value.

good of New York the New York Tu-
berculosis Society. 10 East Thirty-ninth

breeder of political disaster.
And then came the turn of the Re-
publican party to be mismanaged. de-
moralized and all but foundered in
Congress because of the workings of
the seniority rule. The Democratic
party never suffered worse conse-
quences in Congress from the senior
ity rule under CLEVELAND and Will
SON than the Republican party IN
Congress has suffered in recent
months from the inevitable evils of
this indefensible system.
1t is the seniority rule which is
responsible for chairmanships In the
hands of the Fordneys and the Me-
Cumbers with their tariff monstrosi-
ties and bonus raids on the Treasury
1t is the seniority rule which is re-
sponsible for disastrous floor leader

ity rule which is responsible for
blocking and almost ditching the Ad-
ministration program; the seniority
rule, which by the incompetents 1t
elevates and the blunders it fosters
can wreck any party IL there Is

China's Unihcation Nearer.

From north and south China there
comes evidence Of an approach to
unification which will be especially
gratifying to all who have been hop
ing for the settlement of the internal
political differences of the country.
With the defeat of the Manchurian
leader, CHANG Tso-LIN, and the dis
persion of his troops. the three
northern provinces have signfied
their intention to join the Chi
nese union movement. General CHEN
CHIUYG-MING, the chief exponent of
unification in~the south and a cup
porter of General WI PEI-FU, has
gained a decided victory for the
movement in the southern and
southwestern provinces by the cap
ture of Canton, the capital Of South
China.
The fall of Canton indicates the
overthrow OF the South China Repub-
lie, OF which DR.. SUN YAT.sEN was
the President. No Chinese leader
was held in higher respect by the
outside world than DR.. SUN. 1t had
confidence in his unselfishness and
patriotism. He labored fifteen years
for the removal of the Manchu dy.
nasty and finally, when he saw the
republic established, he modestly and
readily retired to permit political
settlement which placed YUAN SWIM
KAr IN the principal Office of state.
The world upheld him in his oppcsi-
tion to the ambitions of TuAN CHt-
Jul and the military chieftains of
the north. His friends, however,
were surprised at his alliance with
the Msnchurian bandit leader. CH ARC

TRADE UNIONS ARE ON
DECLINE IN ENGLAND
Their Financial Position Also
Is Affected.

LONDON, June 20 ASSOCIATED Press).
The trades union of England. current
developments show. are passing through
difficult times. Their memberships
have dropped considerably during the
year. and their financial position has
become worse. The unskilled workers
unions apparently are the most affected.
The membership of the miners unions.
for instance. has declined 100000, that
of the general workers $4,000 and the
railwaymen's union 1000.
VIII Thorne. NJ p. secretary Of the
National Union of General Workers,
says the assets of that union fell during
last year from $751; ,673 to f272.452, due
to the partial stoppage of manufactur-
ing after the war, a general slackening
In trade. the payment of unemployment
money to members. which amounted to
100000 in 1921. and the fact that when
the benefits from the Government ceased
the members were unable to continue
their contributions to the union.
Mr.. Thorne declared the Communists
were trying to destroy the unions, argu-
ing that because wages were declining
the unions were absolutely useless.
The engineering dispute, which was
settled this last week, cost the en-
gineers union 100000. while its man.
agement expenses have been heavy.
Frank Hodges. secretary of the
Miners Federation, says the miners
unions are recovering financially after
having been In a serious position. They
have heavy debts to pay, but some Of
them have already turned the corner.

Fire Prevention for Children.

The Legislature of Ohio has passed
a law making instruction in fire pre-
vention compulsory in all the public
schools of the State, beginning with
the kindergarten classes.
In addition to the customary fire
drill the pupils will be trained to
find and operate fire alarm boxes,
to use fire extinguishers, when to
use water to put out fires and when
to use Hour or sand instead, and
to avoid fires at home. The object
of the instructors will be to make
the subject matter stick fast in the
mind of the child.
The training should make the chill
dren better and more useful, as well
as safer citizens. The city of Toledo
has wisely named the fire preven-
tion course Citizen Training" With
the idea spreading through all the
States of the country, there should be
a marked decrease in the coming
years in our appalling annual fire
losses, which are staggering in
amount of money involved and in
loss of life.

Taxicabs of the Air.

The taxicab on land has vindicated
itself by its convenience, cheappess
and service. A somewhat similar
system has already been started Cor
air travel abroad. At the Croydon
Air Station, near London, an air
plane taxi, seating three passengers.
is maintained ready for immediate
flight, the rate being fiat charge OF
less than fifty cents a mile. A trav-
eler on an eastbound ocean steam
ship nearing England can call one
of these air taxis by wireless and
find it waiting his arrival.
We in America are tagging behind
Europe in aerial passenger traffic.
but when we get our pace the return
ing American will find plane cab or
his private air car waiting for him
on his arrival to whisk him through
to his home In New England or
wherever else 1t may be.
The helicopter, now said to be
nearly perfected, will make possible

American Bred Wins French Oaks.

French racegoers on the opening
day at Chantilly received a shock
when the Prix de Diane, known as the
French Oaks and carrying a reward
of 150,225 francs, was won by Pellsie,
a daughter of the American bred sire
Irish Lad. She was an outsider In
the betting and won with speed in
reserve.
Pellsie was bred at Haras du Ga
zon by Mrs. HERMAN B. DURYEA, who
leased her to the well known French
sportsman XAVIER BALLr. The mares
sire, Irish Lad. won the Brooklyn
Handicap and other fine races In the
colors OF HARRY PAYNE WHITNEY and
HERMAN B. DURYEA, later becoming
the property of Mr.. DURYEA, who
took him to France in 1909. Irish

Tso-LIN. who was the antithesis OF
everything for which he had stood,
and at his refusal to join General
WI in carrying out program which
he himself had long favored.
DR.. SUN thus came to be looked
upon as an idealist, a man whose en-
thusiasm and persistence gained him
followers and supporters as a revo-
lutionary leader, but whose lack of
understanding of practical political
problems defeated his ambitions as n
nation builder. In this respect he
was not unlike many other revolu-
tionary leaders who had preceded
him. Dr. Sun is not opposed to uni
fication; he desires that as much as
any Chinese leader, but he wants
unification upon his own plans.
These the other leaders of the move
ment consider too idealistic to meet
the present imperative demands of
the country. To say that DR.. Suns
defeat means his elimination from
the Chinese political situation Is
scarcely justified. That is not exactly
the Chinese way OF doing things
Besides, China has need of leaders
and it especially needs DR.. SUN YAT-
SENS patriotism.
The unification of China now ap-
pears nearer than at any time since
the sectional break. To General WI
more than to any other man is cue
the credit of this achievement. He
has yet. however, with the assistance
of the restored President, LII YUAN
HUNG, to build up national Parlia-
ment and to destroy the power of
the provincial military leaders.
When this has been accomplished WI
and LII will have furnished the hest
possible proof that China is in ear
nest in her efforts to help herself.
1t is the greatest battle China must
win. BY helping herself China will
not only bring internal order and
tranquility but she will regain the
worlds faith.

Paris, June 20.
Although It still is considered that de-
spite pressure by Premier Poincare there
Is little chance Of the Washington trea-
ties being ratified by the French Parlia-
ment before the beginning of the autumn
session, France is proceeding rapidly
with the rehabilitation of its arsenals
and naval munition factories.
A report which Is to be distributed in
Parliament within the next few days by
Deputy de Chappedelaine shows that re-
duction In personnel already has started
and soon will reach the total Of $4,000
employees. as against more than $4,000
last year. with corollary budget reduc-
tion of 5o.o00.0o0 francs a year below
last years estimates. The decrease is
all the moro striking wnen 1t is consid-
cred that Just before the war Frances
naval arsenals and factories employed
more than $4,000 men. says M. Chappe-
delaine.
The famous Rochefort arsenals are be-

of only 300 for aviation repairs and
other routine work. That is Reduction

A Weather Theory.
Some Speculations About Hot and
Cold Waves.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: 1t has
been said that the general grand cur
rents of the atmosphere and the thun-
der showers they carry are unaffected
by the minor elevations of the earth's
surface. While some claim that show
ers run in valleys. 1t is probable that
the vast height of "thunderheads' ren-
ders them independent of everything
but the highest mountain ranges. except
that their weight gives them tendency
to run" In valleys within As degrees
of their courses. But while neither
the main currents nor their storms are
seriously affected by contour, 1t is
equally evident that the temperature of
these currents may be considerably
altered, the change progressing over a
spell of days, by certain temperature
of the ground over a comparatively
great area.
This change in temperature may also
have an effect In changing humidity. II
the southwestern deserts Of the United
states we're large enough they would
probably cause considerable difference
in the rain bearing strata. North of
have an average direction of northeast
by east. The rain maps of the world
show tina, the rainfall increases In that
direction less than in others. The once
great American desert" now largely
cultivated, stretched over Kansas; the
great Sahara itself reappears far to the
northeast as the desert of Cobb, In Asia.
South OF the equator the corresponding
winds are northwesterly. The Chilean
deserts appear to shade to the south
east the other side of the Andes. Sim
ilarly the dry interior OF Australia seems
to continue southeastward.
II the general rain maps Of the world
show such evidence It g not unreasonA-
BILE to assume that the component parts
that make up the annual rain records
present similar aspects.
I am going to add Ave days to the
warm period half OF my temperature
forecast, which you published. BY the
regular cycle Of the middle period the
relatively warm half Of the period was
due to end after the first ew days Of
June. its elimination succeeded by the
relatively cool half. to continue to the
middle of the month. The GOODNESS has
appeared in the Canadian Northwest,
where the thermometers have shown
temperatures around the freezing point
for days. But in the States the heat
and considerable dryness persist We
have here an example of how the ground
itself helps continue intensified condi-
tions to the point Of exaggeration.
In winter this Is very plainly seen in
the case Of cold waves. A high" enters
from the northwest and grows with in
creasing cold in the states. though all
the time It Ia moving south in latitude.

TREATIES ACT PASSES
ITS SECOND READING
Lords Make Progress With
Warrington Agreements.

LONDON, June 20 (Associated Press) {.
The House of Lords to-day passed
on second reading the treaties OF Wash
ington act Of 1922" introduced by Lord
Lee Of Fareham. First Lord Of the Ad-
miralty. which would make effective the
two treaties signed in February at
Washington. The bill passed virtually
without debate. Lord Lee, commenting
on the spirit and trust the British Gov
ernment was displaying. said Great
Britain more than any other Power was
dependent on sea security. yet she was
giving the treaties effect without wait
ing fer ratification by the other Powers
I'VE are doing this because without
mutual trust and confidence the Wash
ington agreements would inevitably
break down and the world would be
thrown back into welter of suspicion
and naval competition" he continued.
1T has been suggested the Government:
ought to proceed with more caution in
scrapping ships and stopping building
operations. but they consider it unthink-
able that any civilized nation should go
back on its agreement, and that, as the
greatest naval Power, Great Britain
ought to set an example and lead the
way"

Our Highway System.
Nation and States to Connect 10000
Miles Of Modern Roads,

From the U. s. Department Of Agriculture
A system of highways that will serve
the whole country and will be far supe-
rior to any other in the world is being
mapped out by Federal and State en-
gineers. 1t is estimated that the system
will comprise 10000 miles of road.
The Federal highway act specifically re-
quires that 'all Federal aid be spent on
connected system of highways con-
sisting of not more than per cent. Of
the road mileage In each State, and that
this system shall consist of interstate
or primary roads and intercounty or
secondary roads.
Proposed systems have been received
by the Bureau of Public Roads of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture from all but eight States. They
are plotted on a large map Of the United
States and carefully examined as to CO.
ordination with the roads of adjacent
States and service to all sections of the
country. Where coordination is not sat-
isfactory conferences are held with all
interested State highway officials and
routes adjusted.
Many States have already adjusted
difficult problems with their ncighbors.
AS an example the system sent In by
Nebraska showed a gap in an important
road along the northern boundary. II
was learned, however. that South Da-
kota would construct a highway that
would fill this gap like pictures on toy
blocks convenient to one another.
Since the Federal highway act Of last
November became law only roads cer-
tain to be on the system have been
approved for construction.
