Why Golfers Miss
 Ball Is Too Small
spe"ieI 10 the Herald)


 Berlin, June 6 - At last golf CTS have perfect alibi when they swing so furiously at the little white pellet and connect with nothing except empty air. A woman who was using the newly constructed golf driving school in the south end of Berlin the other night has provided it.
 This woman, one Of large crowd which filled every tee. was puslly engaged in trying 10 drive one of the elusive spheres down the falrWay. She swung and missed, swung and missed again. and repeated this action until she had taken fully a dozen shots without so much as grazing the surface Of the ball
 By this time she had become the exposure of every eye. She glanced around and became aware Of the intent gaze Of those around her anad seemed 10 be- come somewhat abashed because Of the notice that she had at tractcd. But she soon forgot her self-consCiousness to the extent of picking up he little ball. stepping over 10 one 0" the attendants, and asking him for a larger one.

 Despite the exceptionally fine con- dition Of the road bed the presence of several bad intersections along this portion of the highway makes speeding exceedingly dangerous to pedestrians and automobilists alike. while the railroad underpass with the blind road leading from the Bel lin depot presents q very dangerous situation.

Excerpts From Newspapers of Other Lands

United States. To Englishmen it seems
as if all the pep had been taken out Of
life.
American workmen are in much bet
ter position to buy more things than
their British brothers, though housing
conditions in America appear to be less
satisfactory than here. One thing Is
certain-the man in the States who
commands something more than a
workman's wage, the successful bust
ness or professional man, who makes
a comfortable income, is living In a
land where all the conditions exist for
him to get the most out of life, so far
as mechanical comforts and conven-

A Timely Letter.

Inspector Browns letter to the street
car companies anent the persistent vio-
lations of the automatic traffic signals
by motornlen is timely and should
bring about beneficial results. For more
than year after the lights were in
stalled the street car companies held
that their vehicles did not come under
the Jurisdiction of the traffic director,
and it was only after Congress amend
ed the code that the companies reluc-
family recognized his authority. Motor
men up to that time paid little atten-
ton to the lights, and even since they
were indisputably brought under the
traffic Office jurisdiction violations have
continued. At the present time, it is
no uncommon sight to observe street
car crossing against a red light, while
yellow-light crossings are everyday oc-
currenceS.
Unquestionably, there is much to be
said on the part of both the street car
companies and the bus companies.
These vehicles have regular schedules
TO maintain ana It Is an acknowledged
fact that trafic lights have slowed up
operation. However, the lights do not
DISCRIMINATE against this type of traffic
alone. AL other travel is affected. The
signals were installed as safety meas
ure and it Is quite evident that safety
demands more respect than does speed
All classes of traffic must obey the
lights. Violations by one are likely tc
lead to serious results. Especially does
it behoove street car motormen scrupu-
lousy to observe the rules. These huge
vehicles cannot be steered out of the
way, and If improperly handled con-
stitute menace. The companies, realiz-
ing this situation, will naturally CO.
operate in order that trafic of all kinds
will move with less friction on the
streets Of the National Capital.

CO-Ops' Need Is Held
Working Together

From the Flint Daily Journal.
Since the World War cooperative
marketing has made great progress in
the United States, but as Secretary
of Agriculture Hyde points out, more
farmers must join the cooperative
marketing associations and the CO.
operatives must learn to cooperate
among themselves If agriculture is to
receive the full benefit of the new
Federal marketing act.
Most of the cooperative units which
are now existent are totally unrelated.
The great need in this movement at
present is to federate the local as
soctationS into regional bodies and in
cooperative selling at the terminal
commodity markets. At present the
co-operativeS do an annual business of
So, 500, 00O, 0OO
Secretary Hyde estimates that more
than 80 per cent of our cooperative
associations have little contact with
other cooperative bodies. For ex-
ample, there are more than 800 CO.
operatives handling potatoes. The re-
suit Is that there Is almost as keen
competition between co-operatives as
there would be If there were none.
Without some system Of regional con-
troll Of cooperative market organiza-
tons, there is no intelligent regulation
OF production. In addition to this dis
NAL fact, we must remember that only
about one-third of the American farm
ers are organized comparatively. Many
more farmers must Join co-operatives
and the co-operatives must be linked
more closely together In order to
achieve the best results.

British Justice.

English justice is not only swift, but
severe. Lawbreakers in Great Britain
are speedily tried and, when convicted
and there are few mistrials and failures
Of justice-are given sentences in ac-
cord with the gravity of their offenses.
In consequence there is less crime in
proportion to the population in that
country than In this, where justice is
slow, uncertain and often ineffective.
Yesterday Clarence Charles HAIRY
and three associates pleaded guilty in
London of forgery in connection with
a great financial fraud that came to
the point Of discovery within half a
year. Their pleas in confession did not.
however, save them from severe SEN
fences, the principal to the maximum of
fourteen years penal servitude and the
others to seven, five and three years.
During part of these terms the men
will be put to hard labor-stone break
ing, for example. They will not be
paroled. They will have no remission
of time for good behavior. Under Brit
ish justice fourteen years means four
teen years and not ten or less.
This is the second time that the maxi
mum penalty for forgery has been i'm
posed in England. It was first given to
Jabez Spencer Balfour, who defrauded
the public with a combination Of build
ing societies that failed for over forty
million dollars. Whitaker Wright, whose
nnance corporation bubble burst at q
cost to the public Of over twenty million
dollars. got seven years penal servitude
but committed suicide on leaving the
cock by taking poison. Gerard Lei
Bevan, whose highly inflated Insurance.
scheme broke for ten million dollars
got seven years and Thomas Farrow
manipulator Of bank fraud, spent foul
years In prison.
In one respect, however, British jus
tice is baked. One of the princlpa
conspirators In this HAIRY forgery frau'
