Special Dispatch to THE New YoRK HnRALD.
CORNELL UNIVERSITY, ITHACA, N. ",
May 27.--The Cornell baseball team
leaves here Monday night TO play the
first game in the important series
with University of Pennsylvania.
Coach John Carney hopes that Walter
Rollo. one Of his star pitchers, who re-
ceived quite bit OF rough treatment
lately, will be In form for tho Quaker
battle. He has had n weeks rest.
Beginning Monday the Cornell rowing
program will be reorganized and the
crews will start training for the Pough-
keepsie regatta. Coach Hoyle will start
the varsity eight out on a series of
three mile time trials some time next
week and longer daily spins down the
lake will be the order of the day.
Senior singing evenings on the CAM
pus have been inaugurated, sure sign
that college days for the class of 1929
are rapidly drawing to close. The
senior warblers will tune up at least
twice week from now until the end
OF the college year.
Until Cornell's decisive victory on the
Housatonic last Saturday only languid
interest was taken by the undergrad
yates and alumni in the Poughkeepsie
regatta Now there will be a greater
demand for seats than Cornell's allot-
ment. Graduate Manager Berry. how
ever, is comforted by the thought that
there is lots of room on the river banks
for all.

claring that in the United States judges
 were not always up to the high standard
 which ought to be required, and that the
 administration of justice in criminal
 cases in the United States is rightly de-
 serving of much criticism. The spirit
 and the power of the party and the de- velopment of professionalism in politics
 are other defects. Men depending for
 their livelihood on politics results in de-
 passing motives of civic duty to private
 gain. And finally the power of wealth
 hs shown in a democracy is another de- feet, as noxious in republics as in the old forms of government, and particu-
 latrly seen inl the United States and
 France.
 What has democracy failed to accom- plish? It has failed to bring good will
 between men. Liberty and equality have not been followed by fraternity. It has politics. It has not induced that satis- faction and contentment with itself nor exercised the spirit of revolution. Yet only a, change in human nature l could have been expected to accomplish these things The test to be applied to say whether democracy has failed is to 1 compare 1t with the other systems of | government, oligarchy OF monarchy. and l ask which secures the better conditions. l <App4y llllS leSL, we Cdn say that II | has given better practical results than | the rule of one man or of class, for 1t has eliminated many evils that flourish | ed under these old systems of govern ment. The question Has democracy 1 failed? can be answered in two words l not yet. But 1t needs the competent
 leader to bring 1t to its full triumphant | development.
 The men gave Professor Lawrence a ] unanimous vote of thanks and he an- ! Swered one or two questions on some of | the points upon which he had spoken. l Just before the meeting adjourned the l members Of the HaviIand class gave the | pastor, Rev. Alexander IT Abbott, com. 1 plete surprise by presenting him a fine 1 birthday cake with candles on it and his initials and the figures 1sSo-1922 shown 1 in the frosting on top. Rev. MT. Alb. l bott's birthday anniversary is on Wed. nesday of this week. With the cake the class presented him a half dozen soft ] collar white shirts.

COAL STRIKE LOOMING UP
 AS A CERTAINTY FOR APRIL 1


 Washington, March 13.-Little hope for the averting of a strike in the union ized bituminous coal fields on April first was held out today in those official cir cles which are most concerned with the repeated government attempts to bring about an adjustment of wage agreement differences. Mine operators, it was de- clared, were continuing in their refusal to enter a conference with the United Mine Workers of America looking to the creation of a new wage contract for the central competitive field, notwith- standing representations made to them by Secretary of Labor Davis. who holds that existing contracts require them at least to enter Negotiations regardless of whether such negotiations are carried to completion.
 The United Mine Workers of America, the general union organization, was de- clared to be entirely willing to enter conference, although insisting upon the maintenance of existing scales, which were adopted in 1920. The employers are demanding reductions amounting to 20 per cent. or more.
 It was indicated in official circles to- day that the government would 20 no further at present but await the develop ment of the threatened strike.
 The degree Of possible government in- tervention later, 1t was said, by a high official, would be determined by the de- gree to which the strike, if 1t develop ed might affect adversely the public well fare. Statistics assembled for the labor department indicate that sixty-five mil Hon tons of coal are now in storage, ap- proximately ten weeks supply for the entire country that this amount Is rap o1v
 union production Is tending to increase. Local agreements between the union and operators are also expected 10 go into effect on or before April 1, which would insure maintenance of further opera tions.

MARS. A. H. SHOVAN is a much re- AN4 spected resident of West Orange, Massachusetts. After taking number of medicines prescribed by physicians and otherwise learned of, without gaining desired results, she took her druggists advice. But let her tell her own story.
 "I was in generally rundown con dition, weak and always tired. My food did not seem to nourish me and did not enjoy it. It seemed to me that all the organs were out of sorts. The doctors medicines and others that had taken did me no good. Twas in MT. Jackson's drug store and telling him of my troubles. He asked me to try bottle of Sanalt and he said if it did not help me he would cheer fully refund my money.
 T took the first bottle and it made me feel so much better that I took two more. It made me stronger in every way. Twas 90 pleased that bought bottle for my two children, and soon found great dif- ference in their actions. Now my htn- band is taking Sanalt and E already being benefited as it has had a wonderfully help iul effect 6pon his stomach. So you see Ssnalt has done good for the whole family.

RIGHT KIND OF A GIRL

A Missouri contemporary rises Co remark: "Once I was young. but now am old, and I have never seen a girl that was unfaithful to her mother that ever came to be worth a one-eyed button to her husband It is the law of God; it isn't exactly in the Bible. but it is written large and awful in the miserable lives of many unfit homes. I'm speaking for the boys this time. If one of you chaps comes across a. girl that. with a face full of roses comes to the door and says. I can't go for thirty minutes, for the dishes are not washed yet you wait for that girl. You sit right down and wait for her, because some other fellow may come along and carry her off. and and right there you lose an angel. Wait for that girl and stick to her like a burr to woolly dog"

DEMOCRACY HAS DEFECTS BUT s
 NOT YET FAILURE SAYS COLLEGE MAN

Democracy is not a failure-not yet, but the world needs a great leader to bring democracy to it's full fr11itian and when he arrives he will be the hero of the age.
 This was the conclusion reached by Prof. Henry W. Lawrence, Jr., of the department of history at Connecticut college, in an address he made Monday night befere the meeting of the Brother hood of the United Congregational church. following their supper at the Community house on Church street. There were about GO at the supper, which was served by the HavIland class of the Sunday school. and was followed by a short business meeting with Vice Presi- dent Herbert R. Kind presiding
 Professor Lawrence spoke upon "The Failure of Democracy" and said that not all the evils of the present condi- tions under which wa are struggling are to be blamed on democracy. The mess we are in we can attribute in part to democracy, but we must only, give 1t it's fair share of blame.
 Professor Lawrence went on to give a searching discourse upon democracy. in the course Of which he remarked that the general strike and the dictatorship or the proletariat, two not unfamiliar terms today, are each threat of the disintegration of democracy.
 He summed up his talk of an hour and a half by giving some of the defects of democracy and what 1t had failed to ac- conplish. In considering these he took into view the experience of the seven principal democracies, the United States, Great Britain, France, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Switzerland.
 Among the defects he mentioned insta. onity of the executive government owing to frequent changes. this not applying SC much to the United States, but particu- larly to France and Australia, least ;oi all to Switzerland. Another defect has been failure of the executive to main tain law and order. shown In the United States in failure to stop lynching, and in Australia and Canada in strikes Ad- ministrativeA extravaganza. in which the United States is the worst for financial waste, is another defect Still another is want of honesty in administrators. legis- lators and voters. Faulty administra- tion of justice is another, he said, de-
