Late u. s. Minister 10 SwedpT,

AAJsSO Ss 6s INAAhhADbGT 10 CWGUGB
Written expressly TOR International
News Service.
In all the discussions of inlmi.
grafton that have been so marked
a feature Of the present session OF
Congress, one feature has been
almost neglected. 1t is the arrival
in America Of considerable numbers
Of artists from European countries
which is a matter that may be Of
considerable importance to VS. in the
years to come.
1t is not difficult to understand
why so many Europeans wish ia
come here. Simply stated, they
seek better opportunities to earn q
living in this new country Of ours
with its vast resources, and they
also seek relief from the fears OF
Europe, This is but natural. They
like everybody else, are tired OF
war and the menace of war, and
want peace. They only wart ar
opportunity to live ana work In
peace.
we cannot. If we would, accept
them ALL That is an obvious. i'm
possibility; but the remarkably
large influx Of European artists t
our shores since the world war Ii
not only circumstance of specia
interest, but is an event OF specia
interest in the present situation
that contains a notable ~rhistori,
parallel.
History Has Precedent.
In the ages Of antiquity, Greek In
tellectuals were sent to Rome a.
slaves by the exercise Of the mill
tary, domination which Rome pos
sessed at that time. The flowerins
Of Roman art and literature ar,
directly traceable to the influence
Of the artists, the mathematician
and philosophers that Greeks, a.
slaves, gave to Rome.
Something similar is happening t,
US today, but we have, as vet
hardly begun to feel its influence
AS we. proceed in our national lif,
the effect will be conspicuous
Artists from every part of the war
stricken world are coming to tn,
United States.
Much has been said by sentimen
talists about art flowers bes
where suffering has been most keen
ly felt by artists" and there Il
abundance Of respectable tradition
about starving in a garrett" Thi
is nonsense. Art cannot flourish II
the face Of constant encouragement
The era Of the old masters was
period in which the church and thu
nobility were the great patrons o
art. Otherwise there would hav'
been no demand for art. Howeve
great their inspiration few artists
have sufficient means to. disregard
the necessity of making a living.
Make Citizenship Prized.
So, in Europe today, many artists
preyed upon by economic disturb
ances and psychological disabilities
find those coming to the Cnitet
States will bring new tendencies t
| our artistic life and very pr6babl!
an originality that will lead to i'm
portant developments Of American
art.
While we cannot accept all wh'
apply, we can do what is possibl,
to induce those whom we do &C
cept to become American citizens
We should strive to make this ;
country that men will always seek
as they do now, and to prize Amer
lean citizenship as something be
yond all price.

PAVING PETITION
" READY TUESDAY
Opponents Of First Avenue
I Parking Expect Referendum

10 Using verified precinct lists, those
Who are seeing the names of 5000 vot-
ers TO the petition calling for an initia-
tive election on the parking of First
avenue, are taking no chances. .
CircuIators of the petitions say they
expect to have the required number of
names by Monday evening and some to
spare, and that the petition will be in
the hands of the city Commission at the
meeting Tuesday morning.
r. Faced with the intention of the city
.e9mmision carrying through its agree
naents with the utility company, made
at the time of the settlement of af-
fairs between the city and the Birming-
ham Railway, Light and Power com
pAny, citizens of East Lake, through
their spokesman, Judge Horace G.
Wilkerson, are endeavoring to take the
question of parking First avenue, from
Eifty-seventh to Eighty-fifth streets,
out of the hands Of the comission and
have the voters of Birmingham decide
the matter.
Secretary L. e. Gray of the election
commission warned advocates of paw
ing instead of parking, that the lists
viii be very carefully scanned by the
probate office and that less than 5000
signatures of qualified voters will auto
xaatically kill the petition.
No action is expected by the city
submission in calling the election Tues
day because verification of the list is
expected to require one or two days
for the checking.
~ Commissioners reiterate their state
ment that they expect to stand by their
agreement with the utility, and I'M
less the matter is influenced by an
election, it will, go through as planned
ct the time of the compilation of the
settlement ordinance, of which the
Barking was a mart.

STEWARTS WORST IN HISTORY
bye Lost 83 Games, As Many As Poor
 est Club Ever To Play Here

the bold and daring leader of brigand of baSe-thieves pilfered five hassocks off the circuit and encouraged his CO., horts to steal three more. In the first inning the Southern leagues leading robber, Stewart, took third base and the home plate. He took third base with Melee standing with the ball in his hand and he stole the rubber from under Smiths feet and he waited from him with the ball. A pretty, elusive slide carried the Baron manager clear of the waiting ball in an outstretched hand. In the fifth inning Stuffy stole second and third, while in the seventh he pilfered second. This brings his total of stolen bases up to g, while his nearest contender, Mar riott of Mobile has 42.
 Lefty" Fiegert assumed still an- other role in the lineup Saturday He has already played the outfield and pitched and this time he worked on first base, taking Brenner's place after he was hurt. The versatile newcomer seemed at home on the initial sack and snagged everything he was supposed to get.
 Good Goes In
 Late in the contest Leo, who may have been called so after Leo the Great, seemed somewhat fagged and after Philbin hit his second homer in the eighth and Williams had doubled, he walked Smith which seemed to bring home to Stewart the vital neces- sity of rushing in recruits. Sep Good relieved the faltering finger and with two on base and none out, turned back the next three men, but though he forced Morrison to ground out and struck out the other two men in the ninth his efforts were in vain for 'Stuffy's Startling Stealers" could not pilfer the game.
 Outside of Philbin's pair of homers the Travellers scored run in the first inning when Joe Guyon, the Indian Traveller, was safe after forcing Phil bin, stole second base and scored on Scrappy Moore's single.
 Philbin's hitting, of course, was the feature of the game, he was credited up but three times. No other player in the game except Camp, who hit two singles, got more than one hit.
