- lantic coast. II has moved
In thirty miles, sea captains say
and sea captains never lie.
Result will be perpetual Sum-
mer for Atlantic coast. Already
farmers are harvesting second
crop of asparagus.
Sea captains report that water
Of Gulf Stream is so hot they
can't dip their hands In 1t, which
is too bad. Hot water is what
some of them seem to need.
With the new arrangement OF
climate, whole Atlantic coast will
be a perpetual Palm Beach un-
less weather grows cold, when, OF
course, II will be about the same
as usual. Bell-hops at Coney
Island already getting ready to
charge larger tips.
Now, maybe New York land
lords will be able to pipe a little
Of this stuff inland and give
their tenants some Of the hot
water that IL mentioned In the
lease, but nowhere else.
Benefits of Gulf Stream to
Coney Island and Rockaway can
hardly be overestimated. House
wives can 60 down to beach every
day and do their cooking. Gulf
Stream IL 90 hot that q three
minute egg boils In one minute.
Every Monday entire beach will
be lined with wash ladies doing
weekly laundry.
Corned beef and cabbage par
ties will be numerous. There will
be Q great saving in gas, but gas
company meters will never find
it out and will charge the same
old amounts.
Hot-dog merchants Of Coney
Island will simply have to tie
their dogs together by their tails
and drop them off the pier into
the ocean. In one minute they
will be ready to serve.
CLANS, oysters and Holsters
will come ashore all ready cooked
and prepared for the table.
Green Holsters will disappear en-
tirely from tho sea and all will
be blushing prettily when cap
tured.
Resort hotel keepers will save
lish-washing expense. Will put
fishes in large nets and trail
hem behind motor launches for a
'ew minutes in the ocean and
hen will be all ready for the
,ext meal.
Entire climate Of the coast will
Ie changed. Overcoats will sell
ior a dollar apiece. Electric fans
: and ice-cream freezers will go up
in price and mosquito season will
last twelve months every year.
Society will not have to go
south for the winter and there
will be no excuse for anybody to
% to Cuba, which, in itself, will
calamity hardly fit to print.
Weather Bureau can quit
;uessing and shut up shop, and
mployes can get jobs as theatri-
:al press agents, for which they
re, by practice, well fitted.
Coal profiteers can 60 hang.
Heavy Winter buckwheat
lakes will be discarded and sew
enteen soapstone foot-warmer
factories will 60 into bankruptcy.
Gulf Stream will, in time, pene-
trate Hudson River up as far as
Albany, which will be blessing
to some statesmen who suffer
constantly from cold feet.
People along shore of river
will pick peaches and daffodils in
January.
Perhaps even some of the pub
lie service corporations will
thaw out.

 The victory for the Newmarket strikers-of whom there were 1000 in retaining the old rate of wage on a 54 hour working basis. was hailed by many as establishing the basis of settlement of strikes elsewhere. To others. however the fact that it was announced that the settlement applied to the silk departments which con- stitute the principal part of the New market plant-discounted it's effect on the cotton mill situation.
 Vice President James Starr of the United Textile Workers of America at the strike headquarters here said he was without adNices that would indi- cate the general significance of the agreement. He was in clined to think that 1t applied to silk and cotton workers alike he said un- less the company had decided to aban- don its cotton operations. .

Oppose German Instructors

Paris, Aug. 3. - (By Associated Press) The policy of the allies as ex- pressed by the council of ambas ssa {. dors in their decision regarding the presence of German officers in the Bolivian army as instructors, Is that the propagation of German military methods and ideas in other countries must not be allowed.
 The high reputation held by the German army before the world war. brought requests from several gov. ernments for the aid of German off, cers in the reorganization and instruc- ton Of their armies. Japan and Tur- key. notably and various countries of the South American and Balkan coun. tries aNailed themselves of this Ger man training and the consequences was that German instruction was fol- lowed by introduction of German equipment and the building up in various countries of political organi- zations devoted 10 Germany and serv. ing its propaganda
 The French military organization has now supplanted the Germans in the Balkans especially. General Beaumont Hennocque was assigned by the French staff to organize the Czecho- Slovakian army at the request of the Czech government and the Polish army is now entirely modelled after the French and is being brought to efficiency by two hundred or more officers

 Separate Government.
Premier Had Almost Agreed to Cut German Repara- tions When Balfour's Note Caused Changes.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Indication. continued to multiply today that thu federal government contemplated nc immediate step in the rail strike situ. Ation.
 member of President Harding'i cabinet declared, however, that as ar abstract proposition it might be i'm agined that the government would ap- ply to the courts for receiverships o1 such railroads as were unable to exc cute their rail carrying contracts.
 The cabinet official emphasized that he was not saying that any receiver ship proceedings were imminent, and postoffiie department officials said that generally the mails were being handled with only slight interruption and delay.
 Possible Plans.
 While further plans of the govern ment in connection with the strike were unrevealed, administration agen- cies were understood to be exploring the possibilities of settlement on the basis of assurances by the railway ex- ecutives that they would consider eny fair proposals which preserved the seniority rights of shopmen who have continued at work during the strike. The executives were said to have been emphatic on the condition as to sen iority.
 Harding Gets Reply.
 President Harding had received for study today the reply drafted by the union leaders at Chicago to his pro- posal. for settlement. To Secre- tary Ioover's statement after seeing the president yesterday that no i'm mediate governmental steps in the rail situation were to be expected other cabinet members added the inti- nation today that the governments course would be largely determined by a test during the next few days of the claims of railroad arrangements as to their ability to maintain transpor- tation.
