A Genoa War Holiday.

There is nothing astonishing about
the cable reports that the Genoa con-
ference is beginning to shape itself
into not program of economic busi-
ness but a peace parley. Without a
genuine and lasting peace in the Old
World there cannot be economic sta
bility and industrial adjustment. If,
therefore, the Genoa conference is
laying solid peace foundations it is
by way of getting to the sound eco
nomic work that always follows,
never leads, peace.
The peace of Europe, if not of the
earth, depends upon the relations be-
tween the Allied Council and Ger
many and between Russia and every
body. Nobody knows that truth bet
ter than DAVID LLOYD GEORGE knows
it. He stated it explicitly to the
House of Commons on the very eve
OF his departure for Genoa. He re-
iterated it in his first address to the
conference at Genoa.
And when TCHITcHERIN. the rep
resentative of Soviet Russia, threw
the conference out of its COM
posure by wanting to discuss dis
armament, which is the very essence
of any real peace program. he said
no more than must have been in the
heart OF every delegate that wants
peace. He said no more than DAVID
LLOYD GEORGE must have been willing
to hear him say, though by the terms
of the agenda he was out of order and
acknowledged he was out of order.
The suggestion which TcHIrcHERIN
offered presages the ten year holi-
day from war which the nations rep
resented at Genoa are now expected
to make, with a pact to be enforced
only "by the moral obligation of hav-
ing been pledged to it in the eyes Of
the world" Not a very concrete
thing is this, compared with the bulk
of battleships scrapped by the Wash
ington conference, but nevertheless
an inspiring ideal capable of being
worked out by war ruined and war
sick world into something definite
and binding. For if nations can
make a promise of peace among
themselves and keep the promise for
ten years. they can extend peace
indefinitely.
And the outlined conditions under
which it is forecast Russia will come
back into the family of nations and
the respect of civilization are them
selves a harbinger of peace-the
peace upon whose heels follows eco
nomic establishment. If or when
Russia rescinds her repudiation OF
old debts, accepts the sanctity of con-
tracts and guarantees the rights of
those with whom she deals in
her own territory, Russia will be en-
titled to go on the peace basis sug-
gested by her representatives at
Genoa. But Russia cannot actually
go on that peace basis, no other
great Power in Europe can, unless
all go on peace basis.

In Unmarked Graves.
Neglect Alleged in the Case Of Sail
Ors Who Died in Florida.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The
United States Government agrees to fur
nish headstones for unmarked graves Of
soldiers, sailors and marines who served
in the army or navy in any war,
whether regular or volunteer, and
whether they died in the service or since
their muster out or discharge there
from"
In Florida about forty men once in
the service of the United States, are
buried in unmarked graves. They we're
sent on the bark Roebuck during the
civil war to blockade the southern coast.
They happened off Florida at the time
OF the yellow fever scourgc and fell vic
tins to It, They have had no recogni-
tion whatever.
The agent for the United States whose
duty is to furnish headstones for their
graves refuses 10 do so. Surely those
men gave their lives in the effort to
save the United States from dismember-
meht. Are they not worthy OF this last
attention? NJ. S.

Working to Earn Rest.

How do you suppose a man is go
ing to enjoy his time off unless he has
some work to keep him busy most Of
his timer" is question asked by
Roswell MILLER. son-in-law of the
late ANDREW CARNEGIE, and young
man with sufficient means at his
command to give him as much time
off as he wishes. 1t is timely ques-
tion just now when the trout are
biting, the summer vacation is in the
offlng and the long, hard road, the
sunshine and the golf course are all
calling their loudest, What's the use
of working. anyhow?
Young Mr.. MILLER practically an
swered his own question when he
took UP job at New York Uni
versity and has been working at it
ever since as hard as any other
teacher in the institution. This will
give him a genuine relish for the
vacation which will come in June,
when the clock stops its call to
The man who never
knew the clouds and the storms can
not appreciate the sunshine at it's
full value. He who was never tired
from labor misses the real pleasure
Of rest, and he who is always sur
feited with food never has the appe-
tite that hunger brings.
The man who retires from busi-
ness and has nothing to do gener-
ally finds himself thoroughly disap-
pointed. Lazing through the days is
not what he dreamed it was. The
retired manufacturer who, when told
that thoroughly retired men made
poor insurance risks, said he be-
lieved it-they bored themselves to
death. The man who retired at 80
from the job he had been working at
most of his life to take up another
and harder one which he owed to
humanity seemed to have the prom
ise OF happier future.
Mr.. MILLER expresses bit of sound
philosophy when he says, Get job
"a job in which you will be happy.
Most of the wise men of the world
have said the. same thing. Work, il
it does nothing else, guards one
against ones self" The person who
most enjoys his vacation is he who
has earned it by work, work so good
that he will not have to worry about
finding his job waiting for him when
he gets back.

Errors of Mr.. MacMonnies,
Guesses From Indiana About the
Meaning OF the Statue.

TO THE NEW YORK HERALD: As a
work OF art, unlabeled, Mr.. MacMon-
nies's statue might be taken for any
thing else than Civic Virtue. which
II in nowlse suggests. 1t might repre-
sent the triumph Of young manhood over
temptation. or it might just as well rep
resent twentieth century financial sue
cess. The face does not impress one
as noble, high minded. benevolent or
inspiring. On the contrary. 1t is dis
tinctly arrogant. seif-worshipful, boast
full 1t exhibits brute force rather than
the higher attributes needed for such
a statue; 1t is of the earth, earthly.
With the idea OF representing Civic
Virtue in the personality of a man rather
than woman there should be no quar-
rel that should be quite as fitting
as a female figure. Women have no
monopoly OF virtue. civic or private. The
fault. in my view, lies entirely with
Mr.. MaoMonniess choice of model,
and therefore with his conception Of
the subject Civic Virtue cannot be
properly typified by cave man. such
as this He is one of that type OF men
who in real life take whatever they
want by the right of might, and for no
ones advantage or ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ex-
cept their own.
Mr.. MacMonnies's explanation is weak
and does not entirely explain. Why.
for instance, must there be wrecked
ship underneath the triumphal figure Of
Virtue? Why need Civic Virtue be
planted in the sea? Why not have SYM
oolized the actual enemies of Civic
Virtue in the figures trodden underfoot?
Why not, in short, have done a number
of things so obvious it seems absurd to
call attention to them?

well pleased audience. Mr.. Gatti-Ca-

remained unchanged. No one was IN
disposed and no one was out of voice or
spirits and the opera was given with de-
lightful spirit. The applause that fol-
lowed each number was of the kind that
experienced operagoers recognize as a
spontaneous demonstration Of real en-
joyment
This is one of the most encouraging
signs of the latest possibilities of public
taste. The audiences at the perform
ances of "Cosi fan lutte act as II they
had found long sought fountain of de-
light. Not in several years have they
heard music of this pure. fluent. restful
kind, and it unquestionably sounds good
to them. Furthermore. the manner in
which 1t has been received will almost
surely induce the impresario 10 revive
more Mozart works next season. Per-
haps we may have a new production Of
"Le Nozzi di Figaro" But will the
Countess and Susanna have to sing the
in the days of Mines. Eames and Sem
brich?
All that is needed to make Mozart
enjoyable Is good singing, and the stand
ard OF vocal art is not so high in these
days that acceptable vocalists cannot be
found. We may not have really great
performances of these old works, but we
can have remarkably good ones. The
production of "Cosi fan lutte" has
proved this. The good work should

Putting Business in the Ships.

. At the Congress hearing on Chair
man LAsKER's ship subsidy plan is
now being argued a legislative pro.
vision which will be brand new in
practice but in principle Is as old
as the hills. 1t is the proposed de-
duction from any ocean shippers in
come taxes of 5 per cent. of all the
overseas freight bills he may pay on
goods carried in American bottoms.
This enactment, il will be seen
would not transfer money directly
from the national Treasury into the
shipowner's hands. On the contrary,
its intent is to do what the late
JAMES j. HILL said was the key to
any Government effort to main
tain a merchant marine-"something
that will put business in American
bottoms
A farmer, lumberman or a manu-
facturer induced by the income tax
privilege to ship his exports in
American vessels would alike be put
ting business in American bottoms.
The only question from the point OF
view of the shipper would be whether
his income tax deductions would
more than cover what he could have
saved in freight bills by using for
eign bottoms. The question from the
point of view of the shipowner would
be whether the rates that he could
charge under this system would be
enough to show him a profit. The
question from the point of view Of
the Government would be whether
direct subsidy payments out of the
Treasury to the ships would cost it
less than the income tax deductions
would cost It,
In any event there is no claim by
the Shipping Board that moneys GO
ing directly to the ships out of
Treasury customs receipts. as Is also
proposed. and business going into the
ships at the cost OF the Treasury in
lost income taxes would not alike be

Frogs Shirk a Job.
Aquarium Visitors Miss an Expected
Swimming Lesson.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The other
who is learning to swim but finds it
difficult to get the kick in the breast
stroke. Knowing that the frog for CEN
turies has been held up as perfect
example of the swimming kick I be-
lieved that she would find in the Aqua
rum some frogs which would illustrate
what she wanted to learn.
The only frogs that we could find
were two big fellows in a tank in the
main rotunda near the entrance. The
tank was about two feet long by ten
inches in width. There was tiny log
in the middle and around it was water
not more than two inches in depth.
We did our utmost to make those
frogs swim, but they only looked at US
with sleepy eyes. Possibly their limited
water and limited quarters made them
feel that any attempt to swim would
disgrace them: SO my eager friend had
to go home disappointed. both in the
frogs and the Aquarium.
Now what could contribute more to
teaching the art of swimming than a
large exhibit at the Aquarium of frogs
in an adequate tank, where the condi-
tions would be such as to invite them to
swim? A sign could be put over the
tank like this, 'The frog kick is a per-
feet example of the human kick in
breast stroke swimming. Study 1t care
fully. Some time 1t may save your life."
Without exaggeration may it not be
said that such an exhibit of frogs would
have more instructive value in bringing
the importance of swimming before the
public than all the other exhibits put
together? G. Z. B.
