ly evidenced by testimony from grown
men who owe their present success ia
the fundamentals instilled in them as
scouts. Of 915 midshipmen, 446 de-
clared that their work as scouts was
benefitting them in their life at Anna
polls; and lot stated that their scout
experience was actually aiding them
daily in their work at the Naval Acad-

It is estimated that there are in the
United States more than six million
boys Of scout age. 1t is evident that
among these lads there is fertile
field for intoxicating the ideals of cit
izenship and it with this idea that a
council has been established on the
Eastern Shore.
More details of the Scout movement
will be available from week to week
as the work of organization progress
es in this section. Those who are sup
porting the movement are urging that
the public study the purposes and ac-
complishments of the Boy Scout
movement sympathetically and atten-
lively and lend their aid in making Of
the Eastern Shore the greatest of all
regional councils.

We regret to note quite severe at
tack of illness to which our esteemed
citizen, former superintendent of
schools, E. w. McMaster, was subject
cd last Tuesday. He was ill for only
a short while, and his recovery was
gratifyingly rapid. But he does not
care to have repetition of the COM

not. The cause of his indisposition
was the result, it is thought, of indi-

During the meeting, it was brought
cut that many people misunderstood
the function and value of the Boy
Scout movement. Arguments advan-
ced against it attempt to show 4that
it is militaristic in method and char

the truth than this, according to Scout
officials.

thought, form or spirit, although il
does instil in boys the military virtues

which clung to the conception Of peace

which clung to the conception of peace
and comfy among the nations preserved
rather by force of idealism than by
regulation, which was held an infringe
ment upon national sovereignties. The
so-called idealism of the League was, in
fact, a venture in realities.
Some Of the analogies with the stua-
ton at Lausanne are striking. The
allied commission plan, accepted by the
Turks, dispenses with distractions and
contains rules and guarantees for the
free passage of merchantmen through
the Straits and for some limitations on
war vessels. Mr.. Child, who has no vote
in the proceedings, calls for the complete
freedom and an end of all regulations.
According to his plan, the Straits should
be made as free as the passage between
Florida and Cuba, where the principle Of
untettcrcd transit has never been ques-
toned.
There is much to admire in the Amer
lean point Of view. Could it be carried
into practical effect it would prove the
simplest Of all the solutions Of a prob
lem which has vexed Europe for
centuries.
But other Governments which are Off
cial members Of the Lausanne confer
ence decline to believe that an unpoliced
Turk will play the game fairly. More
over, the question of the amount of con-
tidence to be placed in the Angora Gov
ernment is not restricted solely to the
subject of the Dardanelles and Bosporus.
The Turks themselves are said to be
preparing to resist American sugges-
tions regarding supervision and protec-
tion Of racial and religious mnorities on
the ground that if Angora can be trusted
on one point it should be relied upon to
keep faith upon another without giving
formal pledges subversive Of the princi-
pie Of sovereignty.
1t will be interesting to note the stand
taken by our ENJOYS when the safe
guarding of Christians in Turkey comes
up for final decision.

THE VICTORY HALL FOG

WIDE discrepancies in the estimated
w cost per cubic foot of the Victory
Hall were revealed at the meeting Of
selected architects called to invade the
realm of realities.
II is not, however. easy 10 imagine
that financial figures serving as q posi-
bic basis Of the program could be obtain
able under existing conditions. Nobody
knows what kind Of building is to be
erected; whether il IS TO obtain a group
Of auditOriums or one great hall:
whether it is to be kind Of clubhouse for
patriotic societies or chiefly decorative
memorial TO American va,or. The plans
are shrouded in fog impcnctrable to even
the most accomplished and practical Of
architects.
When the City Of Philadelphia pro-
poses to erect public building it secures
an appropriation from Council, the size
Of the structure is determined, plans are
drawn and contractors are asked to sub
nit bids. If these exceed the sum avail
able they are rejected. On this pro-
ceAure and on the authority of the City
Controller to forbid expenditures exceed
ing the councimanlc appropriation,
unless the Municipal Legislature itself
makes the additions, the new Charter is
explicit.
B.t the Victory Hail is not under
direct municipal jurisdiction The County
Commissioners arc in control Of the
work and are invested with powers which
strongly smack Of cXtra-lcgality. 1t is
indeed Questionable whether the act pro-
vidng for the building is not an invasion
Of tie rights Of the City Of Philadelphia.
TIE confusion resulting from the
maintenance Of both county and city
officials III the same territory is Of long
standing, but the problem is now pre-
serted in q form particularly acute.
4 definite court decision on the points
affairs would be decidedly Welcome, since
il has been argued that the theory Of the
indepenlence Of the Commissioners is an
archaic fiction and that these officials
should By right be responsible to the
municipality.
Certainly the history Of the Victory
Hall Is far from encouraging 10 the pub
lie. which in the end is the source Of
rcvcnues. It is suggested that the struc-
ture first vaguely discussed might cost
SI6,0OO0O0. This is d wild increase upon
the originally mentioned possible cost Of
the project.
Everything else concerning u IS
:ngloriously ncbuIoVs, save the latitude
and special privileges up to the present
exercised by the Commissioners under a
badly drawn act.

POLITICAL BOIL WEEEILS

THUNDERING contest over the
- Senate seat of Earle B. Mayfed, the
Texas Kluxer who won by narrow mar
gin in the recent elections, is inevitable
1t isn't any wonder that Washington Is
already stirred and cXpcctant
The prospect of an airing Of Ku Klux
political finance on tie Senate floor
should be welcomed by the country.
There is as much hush-hushing over the
Klux N Washington as there is over the
Volstead act. Klansmen who put May
field forward as their most conspicuous
candidate are boastine openly that they
will soon control q balance of power in
Congress and that they expect sooner or
later to have majoritic5 on their side in
the House and the Senate. Meanwhile,
in the presence of a movement devised
to transfer control Of national affairs
from Washington to tie palace Of the
Klux Wizard in Atlanta, politicians are
silent and a little timorous.
The contest over Mayfeld will compel
them to talk. II will compel them to
line up on one side or another, where
they may be seen and understood.
Before many months we shall have an
opportunity 10 determine whether it Is
true that many Representatives and
Senators are ardent Kluxers. That is
fortunate. Mr.. Maylicld is unwittingly
doing the people service by stirring
up an open fight
