strong. The trouble seems to be that in the earlier United States we were a nation of out door people, hunters, fishermen, really pioneers and in our city building we forgot to arrange for the athletic development for the youth of the country and the athletic conservation of the older ones.
 Here are two reasons why it seems of considerable import ance that the United States should make a serious effort to extend and encourage athletics, playground activities, gymna- siums and all forms of physical development:
 First: Thirty seven per cent of the boys of draft age who were called to the colors in the last war were physically unfit for military duty. These were selected from IS to II years the age at which we are SUD- posed to be our best, and one third of those chosen were unfit.
 Second: In the training camp experiments and in the armies it was found that more than 50 per cent of those adjudged physical ly fit were unable to jump across six foot ditch.
 In spite of this condition, lot of persons seem to think that this ground work is something unimportant. The Playground week movement ought to awaken the whole people and spread the gospel of physical development as a necessity to the life and health of the nation.
 We must give the kids of Mo- gales a chance to have a natural outlet for their athletics. Give them a playground. Keep them off the streets. Put them under an athletic tutor. We have Coach Paulus, one of the best hands for instructing children in athletics that the people of this community have ever seen. Build the children a playground that the residents of the city will be proud of.
 Get behind the. playground movement with a will. Any one who denies the kid the right to play is an enemy of the com munity. Figure it the other way and the Rotarians, Kiwanians, Y. M. c. A Knights of Colum- bus, those interested in Boy Scouts are the best friends of the community, the city and the nation.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT STATE OF ARIZONA.
A PROCLAMATION.

 On one day each year we turn aside from the ordinary activi.
 ties of life to gratefully recall
 the sacrifices of those who died and those who suffered in order that these United States might be and might endure, and to deck with springtime'S fairest flowers the spots where they lie sleeping. This is beautiful custom and one of great value, if in our hearts we truly observe it. On the other hand perfume tory acknowledgment of the day, or perverSion of it's high purpose into that of an ordinary holiday for sports and marry making is
 worse than DO observance at all, tending as it does to dull the sense of patriotism and diminish appreciation of real American institutions.
 The day belongs to those who have sacrificed their all for this, our country. On this day they live again, and we honor them with natnre's brightest blossoms. On this day they once more be come real, and through the me- mory of their devotion to Amer ica we are inspired to live as they would have us live, and be what they would have us be real American citizens. Unless it
 brings this meaning into our lives, Memorial Day is an empty ceremonial, devoid of force or life.
 In our solemn acknowledgment of the incalculable debt we owe our hero dead let us also not forget to alleviate the sufferings of the living. It has been most appropriately suggested by the
 various organizations of ex ser vice men that Memorial Day be marked by the general wearing of the Flanders PoPpy, the inter allied memorial flower. These little symbols of rememb brance of those who made the supreme sacrifice during the World War are made by the women and or phans of France, and the pro
 ceeds derived from their sale
 will be used not only for their assistance, but also to provide 8 relief fund to meet the distress occasioned by unemployment among our own ex service men. Now Therefore, 1, Ernest R.
 Hall, acting governor of the State of Arizona,do urge a state
 wide observance, by fitting cere-
 monies. of Tuesday, May thir.
 tieth. 1922, designated by our laws as Memorial Day, and do especially call upon all ex ser
 vice men to take part in the memorial services and the de- coration of the graves of our fallen comrades, in the realiza- tion that simultaneously the graves of these who sleep in foreign soil are being covered
 with the fairest flowers of
 France. And I do further re- commend that in connection with the observance of Memorial Day, the emblem of the silk poppy be generally worn.
 In Witness Whereof, have
 hereunto set my hand and caus- ed the great seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed. Done at Phoenix, the capital, this 12th day of May, 1922.

STATEMENT BY AMOS A. BETS

I have been highly honored by those of my friends who have urged me to become a candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor. There is profound gratitude in my heart for the cordial expressions of confidence and the unqualified tenders of support which have come to us.
 The most earnest and careful consideration has been given to the subject with the result that it is my judgment that l could not at this time undertake the strenuous activities incident to campaign for the office of gov ernor without neglecting the obligation which 1 owe to the people of the state in my pre- sent position.
 The passenger fare case, upon which we have been working for several months, has been set for hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commission at Reno on June 9th: Phoenix June 17th and Santa Fe June 21st. We firmly believe that we have laid a foundation so strong that, fol lowed to the end, we cannot lose. After the final hearing at Santa Fe, briefs must be filed, which will likely bring the case up to August 1st. Thereafter oral ar gument will follow in Washing ton about September 1st to 18th. The winning of this case will mean a saving to our citizens of approximately one million dol lars annually.
 A hearing before the Federal Commission has also been set for Phoenix on June 5th at which coal rates from points of prod uction to all destinations within Arizona will be consider ed. This case is of great i'm portance and must be briefed and perhaps argued orally.
 On May 9th notice was receiv- ed from the Interstate Commerce Com mission that the rehearing in the hay and grain case has It will be recalled that this is the case which we fought and won last fall, securing reduc tions directly beneftting the farmers to the extent of about one hundred fifty thousand dol. lars per annum. The carriers have applied for a reopening. It will take constant, painstak- ing and tireless work to hold what we have gained. This case also must be briefed and argued and cannot be disposed of before September 1st.
 Each of these is major case and will require undivided atten- tion for a period of weeks. I could not do justice either to myself or this work, if engaged in a spirited contest for the office of Chief Executive.
 Other and vital rate problems arising out of the present mud died railroad situation, many of a technical nature, will come up for adjustment during the next few years and it is my opinion that 1 can best serve the people ip my present capacity, there fore, I shall be a candidate for reelection to the office of Cor poration Commissioner and shall endeavor to merit the cont tinued confidence and esteem of my fellow citizens.
 It is with deep regret that I have decided not to enter the race for the nomination for gov ernor, both personally and on account of the host of friends who have as generously and en- thusiastically espoused my can didacy.
 Respectfully,

as he pauses to rest in some position
OF fancied security.
A little later there will be the fall
throated chorus of myriads OF crows
streaking across the sky in the early
dawn. Less frequently heard but
more appealing will be the call of
the wild geese flying in wedge with
willy old gander as guide at the
apex. The strong winged birds may
be high in the air, mere specks in
the gray mist, but their rhythmic
notes will reach the earth and set
the nerves of the sportsman atingle.
An accompaniment to these sounds
of bird life is the rustling of the
leaves as they come swirling down
with each fresh gust of wind, carpet
ing the earth with a glorious weave
OF golden yellows, sober browns and
brilliant scarlets.

High School Fraternities.
They Are Democratic, Undaunted and
Unsurpassed, Says a Member.

TO THE NEW YoRK HERALD: With
heated interest did read the editorial
article on the suppression Of high school
frats.
They have attempted to suppress us
for the past twelve years. with no sue
cess. The Greek letter secret societies
still flourish undaunted. We do not
flourish clandestinely. We publish notice
OF our meetings and activities in all
papers that will give us space.
We are democratic. Money and social
position count for nothing IL is the indi-
vidual Many of my closest friends are
not members Of any secret society.
These societies seldom meet more than
twice month, generally on Friday
or Saturday night at the homo of =
member so as not to interfere with the
school duties.
Tho adolescent are suppressed ana
watched over every day during school
hours by cranky schoolmarms Why
should they be so molested in the few
after school hours of recreation?
Please accept this statement as the
personal opinion gathered from my own
observation, and want to say that /
greatly appreciate your spirit of fairness
in publishing both sides of this issue.

Birds in Autumn.

An open window in the country
brings to the ear in the early morn
ing hours at this season evidences Of
a change in natures mood.
There Is a sharp staccato note in
the call Of the robin. Gone is the
mellow caroling OF the early spring.
The call of the robin in the autumn
sounds more like a warning to. the
laggards that autumn is here and
chiIl winter is coming.
Punctuating the call of the robin is
the irasping note of the bluejay, whose
sopknot flashes here and there in the
pines. Querulous and scolding. his
mission on earth has been to please
tho eye rather than the ear. From
the swaying branches of the loftiest
trees comes the low pitched chorus
of huge flock of starlings which arc
massing for the. Night TO the South

Seaplanes Against Airplanes.

An excellent case for the seaplane
rather than the airplane as the type
of flying machine, through which
American aerial transportation is
likely to be developed was made out
by CHARLES +. REDDEN, president of
Aeromarine Airways, Inc. in his ad-
dress at the National Air Institute in
Detroit. Mr.. REDEEM believes that
circumstances in the United States
favor the commercial development of
the flying boat as we begin the build
ing up of aerial transportation, just
as conditions in Europe have favored
the airplane.
In Europe the end of the war found
France, England, Germany and other
countries dotted with we'll equipped
aviation fields near all the important
centers. A great deal of technical
knowledge had been gained, and
there were available large number
OF airplanes which could readily be
converted into commercial carriers.
Europeans of all classes had become
used to airplanes and no longer re-
garded them with1a mixture of won
der and distrust.
Now the flying boat demands no
elaborate system of terminals and
emergency landing fields. 1t can land
on any river on any bay. That means
it can land close to the business dis
tricts of most important cities. There
is not necessary any great capital
investment for preliminary and per-
manent ground work.
Again, the flying boat has the ad-
vantage that it can fly low for long
distances. 1t can skim the rivers and
the ocean. That is a factor which
will have an appeal for cautious trav-
elers. Then too the seaplane bears
some resemblance in its construction
to boat. That touch of the familiar
ought to help to overcome prejudices.
1t is upon arguments such as these
that Mr.. REDDEN bases his case.
Already the seaplane as CONNER
cial carrier has made a good start.
There is line between Key West and
Havana, which of course has certain
obvious advantages; another be-
tween New York and Atlantic City,
and a third between Cleveland and
Detroit. All these have proved pop
ular, and they are certain to be fol-
lowed by other lines. The coast cities
and river cities Of the United States
afford remarkable possibilities for
this phase of aerial transportation,
and it will be strange if the develop
ment of that transportation does not
take what seems TO be a natural
course.

Meek Hearts and Fair Ladies,

A heavy blow has been dealt the
cave man theory of courtship. In the
scenarios written by 10000 women
and submitted in a Chicago motion
picture contest the bashful hero out
numbered the bold and masterful
wooer by eight to one.
The contestants were careful, how
ever, to draw distinction between
timidity and cowardice. Although
nearly all their heroes were difident
and by no flight OF imagination could
be described as what the breach OF
promise suits have taught us TO de-
fine as fast workers, to a man they
were morally brave and, when aroused,
courageous in physical combat.
Perhaps this heaping up of inn
aginary preferences for the meek
sutor may mean only feminine con-
trariness. A wise man steers clear
The New York herald., 1922-10-13

Professional baseball players seem
to be intent on destroying all illu-
sions about the game which still
remain with the ardent enthusiast.
They apparently want to kill off the
impression that there is real rivalry
among the various clubs in league
and between the two major organiza
tions. They seem TO desire to do
away with the notion that it is a
case of a struggle to the death. They
will head straight for that goal if the
players union becomes reality. 1t
has been organized, but is confined
to scattering membership in the
National League.
The public wants TO be deluded into
the belief that the old up and at 'em
days of baseball have not gone. II
likes to labor under the delusion that
rival players are ready to go at one
another's throats on the smallest
proyocation. In the recent world
series many of the onlookers lamented
over the lack of real scrapping, real
language shooting from one dugout to
the other-fists raised and anger
brought at least to the swapping point.
The complaint was made that the
players were tame.
Baseball fans want clean competi-
ton. They are opposed to rowdy tao
tics and umpire batting But they do
like a little sauce with their game.
They do not like TO think of all play
ers banded together for their general
welfare. A players union may be
necessary to curb the rapacity OF
some of the club owners. But union
would develop a grave danger. for the
game. 1t would bring about an at
mosphere inimical to the best inter-
ests of baseball and In the long run to
the best interests of the players them
selves. They had better think it over
and move slowly.
Judge LANDS, the Baseball Com
missioner, took his Office to protect
the player as we'll as the owner. He
is capable, fearless and honest. The
players had better rely on his judg-
ment and ability to do the right thing
and let that union die sudden death.
Unions may sometimes be desirable,
but not for baseball.

The Fading Poster.

Posters which American artists
designed during the war did not al
ways meet with entire approval in
artistic quarters, however effective
they may have been in accomplishing
their purpose. The names of noted
artists were attached TO some of
them, but that did not serve to pre-
vent criticism. One American artist,
JOSEPH PENNELL, expressed himself
vigorously on the subject.
Whether it has been owing to this
criticism of our posters or to the lack
OF real demand for them little has
been heard of this form of CONNER
cial art in the years following the
war. or the old craze that followed
the early work of MUscHA, LAuTREc.
STEINLEN and above all JULES Che
RET. who was the first to transfer the
poster to the field of art, there has
not been trace.
Few of the German artists who
worked with success in this field have
sent specimens of their skill here re-
Gently. A score of years ago, how
ever, Plakatenkunst occupied the
time of many noted artists in Ger
many. Some Of their posters are
found in the collections which at one
time interested amateurs in art.
The poster, in spite of its great
popularity in the past, has all but
faded from view. Its advertising
value seems to have lost its appeal to
the American man of business. Yet
American artists as well as foreign
artists found distinction at one time
in this field. Probably the poster at
ter while came to fill no real want
in either art or business; or other
wise it would be with us still.
