William McFee Explains

To tho Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: have a clipping from an edi-
torial concerning "Tar on the
Beaches" which seems TO me to merit
some elucidation.
You say "If ships can dump oil three
miles out, they can dump II a hundred
miles out"
The reason for dumping oil Is not
a gay piece Of eItravaganee. A ship
puts oil into the sea for one OF two
reasons. First, bilgevater into which
oil has leaked, never In very large
quantity; and second, ballast water
carried IN oil tanks.
Il would be as we'll for the public 10
understand that a large number OF
vessels MI their empty oil tanks with
sea water 70 maintain stability. Before
refueling they must pump that water
out. But this Is forbidden in hArbor
Under heavy penalties.
This being the case, they discharge
the water, and inevitably n certain
amount Of oil, which has remained In
the tank as near port as possible, 10
insure stability.
Il might not be safe 10 do this a
hundred miles out
II is a problem, but not insurmount-
able.
The point 10 remember Is that
neither ship owners nor ship masters
are anxious 20 put oil on the sea. They
are actively engaged in conserving all
the oil they can. II they were as
reckless IN dumping oil into the sea as
city people are in hinging old news
papers all over the public plaees-well.

PLAY the Game

ut isn't cricket" say the Eng
lish. It doesn't seem lawn tennis for
Britain to present Spain with a
walk-over in the semi-hnals Of the
Davis Cup competition.
The committee making the de-
cision assumes that only two players
in the British Isles are strong enough
to compete in the finals should they
win from the Spaniards, and since
their engagements will prevent their
coming to America 1t is sportsman
like 10 withdraw now. This is a con-
fession Of debility not at all char
scteristic Of John Bull. Naturally,
it has aroused protest at home, espe-
cially among the younger players,
who would be glad to come over and
take defeat, if il should so happen,
with good grace rather than show
the white feather. II Great Britain
should stay out Of international ten
mis- until she raises a new crop Of
Dohertys she is likely to be absent a
long while.
It's a bad thing for any game TO
make participation in it depend upon
nice calculations Of the probable re-
suits Of the match. In sport, always
the unexpected. The man who had
least chance on paper has time and
again come through to the finish.
No one has ever denied that Brit
ons in sport are game, chock full Of
grit. 1t is singular that their lawn
tennis association should make such
soft exit from the Davis Cup
series.

Debs at Il Again

While the prolonged campaign for
the pardon Of Eugene V. Debs was
on tho argument in his favor was
that he was an amiable, tender
hearted old man who would not hurt
ay; that for a few hasty words
he had been punished more than
enough; that, anyway, he had
learned his lesson and would not Of
fend again as he mildly spent his re-
naming years raising chickens and
pottering in his garden.
But Debs has been lured to Chi
cago, where ne first came to general
notice many years ago. Then said he
TO members Of the American Railway
Union while a great strike was on,
in whose riots many lives were lost
and many acres Of cars we're burned:
"Save your money and buy a gunl"
On the old scene he was reattacked
by his old disease. He did not YER
bally repeat himself, but came
near il.
Not only does he attack the war
and insult every man who took part
in il as either a prohteer or as a
gullible victim Of a gigantic criminal
conspiracy, but in effect he tells all
who look to him for counsel that 1t
is time to fight. Referring to the
Herrin massacre, apparently not
CORY enough to suit him, he speaks
Of "some slight disorder" and re-
marks that "a few scabs have been
hurt"
Debs is at II again. He would
make America a Russia. While he
modestly refrains from Offering TO
play the role Of Lenine, he is not a
man to avoid responsibility. If he
could be a dictator, as Lenine is,
with 100000 armed men responsive
to his commands, he doubtless feels
he could successfully resist expul-
sion and ruin where he ruled. An
enemy Of the masses Of America is
Eugene v. Debs. His policy would
reduce the average man to slavery.
He abuses the liberty that has been
granted to him.

Around and Around

II was Don Marquis who observed
that although liquor raids are Of
daily occurrence in New York one
never hears the sound Of breaking
glass. The custom Of pouring seized
whisky into the gutter, which en-
livened village life in the days when
Kansas first went dry, does not OBJ
tain in New York.
The dry law officials get the liquor
and store II away. and then, appar-
emily, thieves break through and
steal II. The bootleggers get II
from the thieves, the unlawabiding
restaurant men get it from the boot
lcggers and the dry law officials re-
appear to take II back to the bonded
warehouses.
It is the same sort Of circle as
that described by the man who does
more work TO get more money
to buy more food to get more
muscle TO do more work 70 get
more money, and so ad infrituul.
OF course, there is a certain loss
now and then from occasional con-
sumption en- route. The burglars
who stole the whisky from the chem
ical laboratory on the fifth floor Of
the Federal Building will not have
as much 10 sell as they took away,
nor will the refectory from which
the prohibition enforcement officers
will later seize il find as much as was
sold by the bootlegger customers Of
the burglars.
Failing a new supply derived
from foreign shores or from the
home and fireside, the circle would
soon dry up. However, such Of the
old pre-Volstead stuff as Is still in
existence, though it grows in cost
as the years 60 by, owes nothing Of
its enhanced selling price to the cob
webs that gather on the bottles. II
never stays anywhere long enough
to give a cobweb a landing place.

less. might be adjudged to have a
certain value.
II is said by moralists and lee
turcrs that one Of the most serious
Of life's handieaps is lack Of conf
dence IN ones self--the inability OF
youth to set sufficient value on Its
bodily and mental attributes.
Should this court decide that one
tooth is worth $4,000 and q set
is worth $4,000 almost any man
by careful self-appraisal could hg-
ure out that he is worth four or five
million dollars on the hoof.
That ought TO be a permanent
cure for timidity and equip every
beginner in life with enough conf
dence TO carry him through its Bit
terest battles.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In the Sunday Tribune Of yes
terday Arthur James Pegler in his
interview with Officer Francis cadcll,
lately retired from tho New York
police force. Is intensely interesting.
To an oldtimer Il opens the avenues
Of memory. although, as expressed In
recently published poem, "All
travel is forbidden on the pathway 10
the past"
While the officers notebook dates
from 1891, he tells us something Of
the tragic death Of James Fisk jrY
which occurred January 8, 1872.
Fisk was a man Of great natural
ability. He was lacking in education
and refinement, but his energy was un-
bounded and his ingenuity subtle. His
skyrockety fame ended in his thirty
seventh year. Gone where the wood
bine twineth" was his favorite ex-
preston. and the places that knew him
so we'll, after fifty years have no
knowledge Of him.
Once he was president Of the Erie
Railroad, elected TO the directorate
through the influence OF Daniel Drew,
who was Immediately dropped; an In
stance Of the way Fisk made the best
use Of his friends. He made himself
commodore Of the Sound lines TO Fall
River and Newport, and no commander
Of feet ever trod the deck Of a ship
with greater pride than Fisk In hts
natty uniform as he parAded the quar-
ter deck Of the old Bristol. Yet he
was never quite sure which was the

called them with champagne and told
romantic though truthful stories OF
his youthful days when, as q peddler'
in southern New Hampshire and Yer

sleigh bells and drawing a mirror

OF goods, we're a weekly sensation.
Could anything be more imposing
than Fisk on his black charger as
colonel Of the seth Militia, marching
up Broadway at the reception TO the
Grand Duke Alexis, on that winter
afternoon In 1917
ofieer Cadell Is right when he says
that the killing OF Fisk by Edward s.
Stokes made more talk than the
killing Of Stanford White.
Il happened at the old Grand Central
Hotel, later known as the Broadway
Central Hotel. The two men met In
an upper hallway. The row was over
Josephine Mansfield, not Minnie
Marshford, as the officer recalls Il.
Stokes was tried for murder in the
first degree, the District Attorneys

Court Of New York. William A. Beach

Charles r. Miller

The death Of Charles r. Miller,
for forty-seven years a member Of
the editorial staff Of "The Times
and since 1883 its editor in chief de-
prives American journalism OF one
Of rs most honored and respected
workers.
He was Of the old school; his
standards were fixed into life habits
long before sensationalism arrived
in its clothes Of yellow. He believed
an editor spoke to readers who cared
for more than mere amusement. lie
had a love Of accurate information
and sound and orderly presentation
of opinions. He thought that char
acter and consistency counted and
that a newspaper was not wholly a
sounding board to echo the preju-
dices or hssty conclusions Of its
readers.
The Tribune extends It's condo
lences to "The Times" In the loss
of Charles r. Miller it loses much.

The Courts Alternative

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Your correspondent l. j.
Vance shares a common and very
lamentable impression that il 10 a
sort Of assumption Of power" for a
court 10 declare a law Unconstitutional
and therefore void, and that such he-
tion is in some degree comparable TO
that Of a Governor or a President in
vetoing a bill.
The two acts have no similarity.
The executive often vetoes simply
because he considers the proposed
measure unwise; the court has only 10
pass on this question: (which shall
we enforce, the Constitution or this
statute that violates IT," How any
reasonable being can possibly doubt
that every court. high or low. should
base It's ruling in such a case on our
fundamental law and not on the stat
ute that would disregard and defy Il
