NEWPORT, K. l., Sept. 10. UP
Seventy-nine years ago the staunch,
two-masted' yacht America out-sailed
the best OF the British yachting
squadron and brought to this coun-
try the none too beautiful cup which
was to become the worlds premier
Yachting trophy.
Queen Victoria, still a young wom-
an, watched; the race from the deck
of her royal yacht. The yachts
sailed around course beginning off
Cowes on the Isle of Wright, Il dis
tanee of 53 miles. Fourteen British
boats and the America had started
at 10 a. m., on the 22nd of August,
1851. 1t was S:35 p. H., when the
white sails of the America were seen
carrying the boat from over the seas,
to an historic victory.
"Your Majesty. the America is
first the royal signalman reported
to the young queen.
She was described in contempora
~ accounts as being greatly sur
prised.
And who is secondi' Victoria
is said to have inquired.
Your Majesty the signalman
answered, "thcre is no second.'
His report became by-word and
at one time was considered a smart
answer to bantering question much
as SOS your old man. has GER
tain amount of favor today.
But the signalman didn t quite
tell the truth to the Queen, for the
Yacht Aurora actually was second,
only eight minutes behind the Am
erica. Behind it finished string
Of British yachts, but the important
thing was that the America had won.
The race had been an eventful
one and the America victory may
not have been entirely free from
an element of good fortune although
the seamanship Of "Ol6 Dick -
Brown, her sailing master, quite
probably played as large part as
Lady Luck.
Well, along in the afternoon of the
race the America was running fifth.

HOW AMERICA WON FAMOUS
YACHTING CUP 20 YEARS AGO

He tried shortcut around Il

terms, collidcd and both were out of
the race. The Alarm, coming up To
sec the plight of the grounded Ar
row, stood by to give aid.
"Old Dick Brown swung far to
seaward from the point which was
the undoing of the Arrow and
romped home a winner with his Am
erican boat.
The race was the only important
one the America ran aboard. 1t had
been Built for John G. Stevens, Il
wealthy sportsman of Hoboken, n.
j., after q design by George steers,
son of British naval architect who
had come to this country after the
war of lS12 to do Designing for the
budding United States navy.
Stevens sent the Yacht abroad, look
ing for race. Crossing the Allan
tie under her own sail. she made rs
high as 2Si knots in single day and
arrived at Havre, France, with an
rnquestioned reputation for speed.
A robust sportsman of the old school,
Stevens offered to race any yacht
in England ror any amount of
money. But races proved hard to
find. He entered his boat i'll a few
minor events in French and Brit
ish waters.
Then, in May. the Royal Yacht
Squadron put up 4 new cup popu-
larlv known rs the Zone Hundred
Guineas Cup, and race for its
possession was arranged for August
%. 1t was that race which the Am
erica won.
The race over, the Royal Yacht
Squadron, first of all yacht clubs
and to this day the most exclusive
in the world, graciously presented
the trophy to Stevens and since then
has given il not the slightest atten-
ton. The Royal Yacht Squadron, of
which King George is Admiral, has
never challenged for the cup and has
never backed challenger.
Stevens brought the cup back to
the United States and few years
later presented it to the New York
Yacht Club by 4 deed of gift pro
viding that it became a perpetual
challenge trophy for international
yachting. Since then it has reposed
in state in the New York Yacht
Club quarters, n rather unimpressive
object of early Victorian art.

RAILWAYS RESIST
STATE WAGE LAW

Albany, N. Y.--The state supreme
court, next month, will pass on the
plea of eight railroads to set aside
the state legislatures act compelling
railroads to observe the eight-hour
day and "the prevailing rate of
wages" on all grade crossing work.
The elimination of grade crossings
will cost $3oO,O00,OOO, equally divided
between the railroads and the state.
At time when everyone agrees that
high purchasing power will relieve
unemployment, the railroads seek
right to lower wages on the ground
that this work is a private venture
and is not subject to state regulation.
The case will eventually find it's
way to the United States supreme
court. 1t is one of the biggest law
suits New York state ever faced.
The railroads that have joined in
the fight against the law are the New
York Central, Delaware & Hudson,
Long Island, Lackawanna, Erie,
Lehigh Valley, New Haven and Staten
Island Rapid Transit.

Summary and Digest Of

In contrast with the grave unem-

Measured by the official calcula-

50.32 per cent of rated capacity, while
the total ingot prodution of all COM
panies was 2,720,414 tons, or 147,564
tons less than in September.
A refusal to interfere with the Bal
timer & Ohio's bus line operation for
passenger transfer from trains into
New York city has been announced
by the Interstate commerce commits
sion, in dismissing petition by the
Pennsylvania railroad, which asked an
| investigation into the Baltimore &
Ohio arrangements and alleged that
| they constituted discrimination un-

MECHANICAL AGE
Is Bringing New Peril, De-
clares Clergyman

Chapel Hill, n C.-"Our mechan-
ical age imperils civilization" de-
clared Rev. DR.. Reinhold Niebuhr, of
Union Theological Seminary, at the
annual Southern conference on educa-
tion at the University of North Caro-
lima.
Making indirect reference to the
present industrial situation, DIR. ME-
buhr said the people lack social in
telligence. eve are too mechanical"
he said.
He declared that we are trying to
run the intricate collectivities of an
industrial civilization with a con-
science that we inherited from our
pioneer forefathers, and that we try
to govern each generation by tradi-
tions which emerged out of situations
other than our own.
Multiple ownership destroys the
sense of responsibility and multipli-
cation of workers are individual in the
crowd" said DR.. Niebuhr.
"If we can not bring the anarchaic
forces at the heart of our industrial
society under the control of human
conscience and intelligence there is no
hope for our generation. We must
then wait for the day when our social
institutions will become so malad-
justed and so inadequate to our needs
that the vehement hatred of those
who suffer from such injustices will
furnish the energy for change which
intelligence was unable to supply.
Whether modern society can
gradually eliminate it's injustices and
grow steadily toward sane, ethical
goal, or whether it can save itself
from it's limitations only by violent
convulsions is question that can be
answered only by educational forces
of modern society,""
