EDITORIAL

William w. Roper, one Of the fore
most coaches in America, has said:
"Twenty-hye years Of foot ball, as
player, fan and coach-and I'm not
sure which description fits me best
have taught me first OF all that the
game is played not by eleven men but
by eleven hundred or eleven thousand
by the whole student and graduate
body of the institution, which those
eleven men represent"
How well this idea applies to the
team OF Benn ngton High School. But
there is still one small spark of light
still burning for the team they are
holding their opponents TO small scores
which goes to show that the team Is
80 to So per cent better than the
spirit behind the team.
Fisher could not make winning
team out OF five boys. How do the
students and foot ball fans expect
that Coach Taradsen can make a
winning II Oh School team when only
about six or seven fellows turn out
regularly for practice? Until the
coach has dismissed player from the
.N,uad, his duty. both to the team
and to tie institution, OF which he is
part. is t. report every night for
practice
CCntinu ne the thought OF William
Roper, "a cha rs only as strong as
its weake link. This applies to the
cooperation that often exists between
the foot ba team and the student
body. little praise goes lot farther
than lot of knocking. Turn yourself
into booster, If you have been a
rooster. Gears work smoothly only
when there is sufficient grease. Put
little grease OF pra s. behind the
foot ball team.
If the team is successful. 1t means
something to a student OF Bennington
High School. They share in their
glories and ought to suffer with their
defeats. Hence let every member of
the Bennington High School student
aody make himself or herself into a
strong link of the chain of co-opera-
ton. Adopt the idea that your team
is the best one in the country.

American Interest First, Said
Judge Crisp on Little Navy'Bill

give credence to the recommendation
of naval officers as to the needs of
the navy for they are biased and un-
reliable. | know very few naval of
ficers. Those whom / have had the
good fortune to meet are honorable
men, and | think they love their
country and desire to serve their
country just as much as does the dis
tinguished gentleman from Michigan,
myself, or any other member Of the
house. / think when it comes to tech
nical knowledge as to the number of
men required to operate the navy,
they know very much more about it
than any of US. (Applause.) We
are perfectly willing TO rely upon ma
val officers and entrust millions of
dollars of property and the precious
lives of our boys to the gentlemen
when they are barring their breasts
to the bullets of the enemy, to the
storms of the seas, when the country
is at war. Why are they not entitled
to some confidence and their opinions
entitled to some weight as to the
needs of the navy when we are at
peace?
Appealing now to my Democratic
colleagues, we have right to be
proud of the American navy, because
our party has played a conspicuous
part in it. 1t was during the Cleve-
land administration, when Mr.. Will
liam c. Whitney was secretary of the
navy, that the American navy first
took prominent place on the sea.
"And it was during the last Demo-
cratic administration, under the Dem
ocratic program Of 1916, that the
American navy became the best one
in the world. Why should we follow
the Republican majority leader and
take any chance or cast any vote that
may reduce it to a second-class navy?
"Now, gentlemen, as said before,
| do not know the number of men
required to maintain this navy on the
ratio of 5-5-3, which we all want to
maintain. Now, if there is any doubt
about the number of men required to
do this, without criticizing any of my
colleagues, |, for one, shall resolve
the doubt in favor of giving the n'Im-
Der of men that the naval officers and
the navy department, the secretary
of state, and all those who have stud
led the matter flom the gove"nmenHs
standpoint, declare it is necessary to
give, to-wit, $4,000 men. ZAP

"Now, Mr.. Chairman, there is an

other thing I wish to call to the at
ltention of this house. When we
adopted the budget system and con-
Isolidated the appropriations in one
lcommittee, the committee on appro-
lpriations, it was expressly stated and
iargued on this floor that the commit
tee on appropriations was not leg
| islative committee. In bringing in
this bill the committee on appropria-
tons has transcribed it's authority
and is usurping the prerogatives of
the committee on naval affairs by leg
islating for the navy. The bill legis-
lates by providing that the personnel
of the navy shall be only $4,000 men.
The committee on naval affairs, which
under the rules of the house has
charge of legislation relating to the
navy, after two months of hearings,
has reported bill recommending that
the personnel of the navy be fixed at
$4,000 men and 5000 apprentices.
The question for US to decide is
whether we will follow legislation
suggested by the appropriations COM
mittee or by the naval affaivs com
mittec. Are we willing, by accepting
the report of the committee on appro-
priations, to say that the naval affairs
committee and the other former ap-
propriating committees of the house
shall be reduced to mere nonentities?
Il am going to say very frankly to
the gentleman from Michigan (Mr.
Kelley, as | said when | started out,
that | am not familiar with the de-
tails of this legislation. My infor-
nation was from prominent members
of the committee on naval affairs that
the mill authorized personnel of
$4,000.
Nov, to sum up and not take any
more of the time of the house, it is
my intention to vote to increase the
personnel to $4,000 men. (Applause.)
And | shall do it for the reason that
the naval affairs committee, which is
the proper legislating committee for
the house on this subject, after ex-
haustive hearings has recommended
$4,000. | shall do it because Secre-
tary of the Navy DENLY; the assistant.
secretary of labor, Mr.. Roosevelt;
Admiral Washington, chief of the bu-
reau of navigation, and all other ma
val officers, who are charged with the
duty of managing the navy have said
it was necessary to have $4,000 to
maintain our navy on 5-5-3 ratio,
which we are authorized to do under
the disarmament treaty. | shall do it
because the secretary of state has,
advised this house that the naval
board that. was intrusted with the re-
sponsibility of advising our peace
commissioners when the international
conference was being held say it re.

BY ALBERT APPLE

Despite coke shortage, mills of
the U. S. Steel Corporation continue
running on an averoge of rs per cent
capacity. New oriecs are being book
ed on still large scale. Open
hearth operations in the Youngs-
town district are going on fuel-oil
basis. Prices continue upward es,
pecially pig iron.
The Betting
In the stock market rails have been
having their best market since before
the war. The average of leading rail-
road shares was down to about $68
after the reaction from the $93 peak
of the 1919 bull market. Recently it
climbed around $85, the highest in
three years.
Coming Back
About 100000 freight cars are idle
now, on account of business con1i-
lions, especially dull coal movement.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1922-05-02

Tremendous freight n5vement is Ii
sight for next fall.
Railroad buying continues on 3
heavy scale. Prices are attractive.
Steel rails, $2s ton before the war,
climbed to s57 in the war boom and
now are down to $40. Standard 80
ton freight cars now cost $500,
against $500 before the war and
$4,000 at the peak of the boom.
Brisk Auto Trade
Ford schedule calls for production
of 10000 cars in May. That's one
car every 6 1-2 seconds.
Detroit reports auto sales have in
creased so rapidly since April 10
that an acute shortage of fay he'd
parts, especially axles, is dew OPP
ing.
More Building
Sales of cement have doubled in
last As days, and now are a sixth
bigger than year ago, due to build
ing pickup.
Strike Gains
Coal strike is developing more
favorably for the union miners than
the great strike of 1919, in the mat
ter of strangling coal production.
While this is partly due to lessened
;pot-market demand, coal reserves are
being eaten into rapidly.

quires $4,000 men to maintain the
5-5-3 ratio. (Applause).
''The present strength of the navy,
as l understand it, is 100000 men.
If it is reduced to $4,000 there will
be reduction of $4,000 men, which
will effect large saving to the tax
payers, and if you give the $4,000
there is no question but what our
navy will be efficient and be equal
to the navy of Great Britain. have
no criticism of any colleague who
differs with me, but l shall take no
chances for my country's safety. L
shall give the country the benefit of
any doubt in my mind by voting for
$4,000 men, the number that those
charged with the responsibility say
is necessary to maintain 5-5-3 ration.

Having been postponed twice and
with but one game, tie, having been
played the post-series between Mays
vile and Cynthiana will probably be
resumed on Saturday in this city at
the Forest avenue ball park as wealth

Cynthiana.
Both teams will likely put great

pose each other with Long on the hill
for the visitors and Miner against hip,
for the Cards. Play will be called at
