THE GREAT FUTURE" or THE RARGE CANAL

The New York State Barge canal. which before a hundred millions or so of new money was thrown into 1t was known as the Erie canal, Is still doing business, according to the report of q commission which made a survey of the ditch. Of course, the business being done by the celebrat- cd waterway is not enough to en- rich the Empire state, but the com mission declared itself as being sanguine regarding the future. That at least is a point greatly In favor of the canal--its future is always bright; the only irritating difficulty has been that tho present has never been polished enough to be called bright.
 This most famous of our inland canals was built in the misty past 10 enable the shipment of grain and other goods from the eastern end of Lake Erie 10 the Hudson and thence 10 New York. The trouble with the canal has been that the railroads came along and made 1t look like a stage coach. Grain be- gan 10 be hauled on trains and has been hauled In this manner ever since.
 The main good done by the canal seems 10 have been the stabiliza- ton Of freight rates between Buf- talo and New York. Whether 1t is as effective in this respect as the competition between the three Or four railroad lines between those two cities Is 2. matter for transpor- taton experts, who naturally would not agree on the subject.
 It must be gratifying 10 the tax payers, however. to realize that the ditch at least has 8 future" how ever dim 1t may be,

TWO NOTABLE REQUESTS
 FOR CHARITY

Requests made by two American citizens were printed in the Herald yesterday one in New Britain and the other in Chicago.
 The estate of the late J. Spencer Douglass, who was a quiet and un- assuming citizen of Chestnut street, totalled nearly half q million dol lars, 3 goodly part of which is be- queathed to deserving organizations whose human welfare efforts the late nonagenarian approved,
 The other will was that by Victor F. Lawson, noted publisher of the Chicago Daily News, who be queathed more than half of his specific requests for benevolences these amounting 10 more than g. n.000,
 Both men realized the value of money to do good; they accepted the moral duty to direct fair share of their accumuations to that end.
 Both men were philanthropists s during their lifetime; both added to their benevolent gifts through their wills. Their opportunity for the dis posal of property to advance charity was great and they gladly accepted the obligation.

TOO MUCH ATHLETICS IN COLLEGE LIFE

Two educators one at the head of great university. the other at the head of a smaller university = denounced the influence of athletics in collegiate life this week One was President James Rowland Ang,ll, of Yale. the other was President How ard Edwards, of Rhode Island State college. Both included their strictures in their annual reports, and 1t must be confessed they made out strong case against the ex- sltation of athletics and the sub jugation of learning,
 President Angell declared bluntly that "a way must be found to limit the time devoted by students to ex- tra-curriculum activities" A student who takes part in the needless re- quirements of the (athlctic) com petitions, to the amazing system of rushing for fraternitics. to the elaborate and costly social enter tainments and 10 the schedules of Intercollegiate contests" the noted educator thundered, "should have control Of enough time to do schol-
 ,a tr1,
 President Edwards of the Rhode Island State college thundered just as loudly, and gave the alumni something to think about, An ad- miring eXaltation of clever fraud as the true philosophy of life among students results from professional ism and the desire 10 win intercol- legiate athletic contests at any cost, was tho manner Of his diCtion. Rhode Island college, he added, cannot permit the domination of its athletic activities ny the alumni. "Distinctly auti-social evils are fos- tered and encouraged at what should be the fountain head of SO cial virtue and morality for the coming generation" he asserted,
 A great university such as Yale should seek to shine as q beacon light of learning, and not so much as an athletic center. The smaller colleges, such as Rhode Island state and others in that class, In late years have been attempting to epe the larger universities ln r"Ia- ton to their sporting activities The employmcnt of athletic coachra at high saIari.s and the development of curious colIog" spirit that is esempnaed in the desire 10 win athletic contests at all costs are evils that tlo college presidents haze ~,ry right 10 view with alarm.

"So FUEL SHORTAGE" DEPENDS ON MEANING

President Coolidge has accepted tho word ot John Hays Hammond, former chairman Of the coal com mission. that there will be no dan ger of q fuel shortage as s result of the threatened strike in the an- thracito fields. (. w. Barron, pub fisher Of the Wall Street Journal, voiced the sentiment ot his con stItuency when he declared strike wilt be a good thing"
 When the President and Mir. Hammond talk of mo fuel short age lt depends somewhat upon what they mean by the term. Of course, there will be no fuel short age this winter If everybody in New England turns to the use of soft coal, in case Of hard winter" the only difficulty then might be in moving enough soft coal over the railroads fast enough, But will all those without hard coal in their bins turn to soft coal as the palia- tive for their sufferings? The same plan had been attempted during former strikes, the main result be- ing that prices of soft coal, when procurable, advanced accordingly, and with q large proportion of New Englandcrs finding themselves with furnaces not adapted to the burn ing of this type of fuel.
 Mr. Barrons diagnosis that the strike will be a "good thing" also depends upon what he means. If he means 1t will be a good thing for the kiting of prices in the industry he undoubtedly Is correct.

PUBLIC GAINS IN TAX
 EDUCATION

The move to boycott Connecticut theaters. instituted by the film pro- ducing companies, m2y or may not eventuate, but the concident agita- ton regarding the film tax law will have the effect of educating the public upon the practice of the state in lovying special and onerous taxes.
 The film interests deserve credit for fighting back rather than cen- sure for so doing. Had they accept ed the law without protest or with out effective opposition the public would have had little opportunity 10 become acquainted with the principles underlying such unnec- essary taxation: as 1t Is, the public is emphatically informed that the state inflicted the taxation in the face of 2 surplus in the treasury in other words, that it did not need the money, and in the face Of the knowledge that the public eventual lv and inevitably would have to foot the leyies.
 The rumpus will convince poll ticians that the public now knows more about this particular subject than it did in the "a st, and the legislative pastime of inflicting un- necessary special taxes on species of spacious reasoning will be eA- coodngly unpopular in the future

HIRING AUTO TOURISTS
 DONNTOWN

The ombattled merchants or SpringfeId arc up in arms agalns' signs at the outskirts of that ci'y which inform automobile tourists bov to make short cuts through sprmgHcld 10 avoid the downtown traffic jams. The merchants '''- dcnllv want tourists 10 come rlghI downtown, park their cars and oo some shopping. They are taking It un with the hoard Of selectmcn ana af fhis writing it is not certain whether tho signs will stay up or come down,
 This is a peculiar state Of afta'rs' II ia one that seems peculiar to e,,r;rqrc11 for in most other pro pressiyo cities the authorities ap- noar to do all in their power to suggest short cuts to tourists to avoid having them contribute 10 aovn,ovn traffic It is certain that nine tourists ont of ten, unless they bayo business in the downtown part If ciiy or are looking for place to eat or sleep, will attempt 10 avoid the agonIos Of being mixed Tn u,o ,cramhe of the downtown strrts.
 Tho snringfold merchants think ,,o, lose trade when tourists trim r,tr sails around the city instead of going through it. Perhaps they in ,o+ when autois's are tourists ,,,v are not out for an indulgence in traffic jams. and they do not aS ;, rule care for anything else than ,o got 10 their destination in the ,,,,,,r,,,ng or s,ashore as directly a, possirio.
