For New York can be most generous potentate, rewarding its favorites with gold and applause and na- tional recognition.

 Nor does Gotham cast aside quickly those upon whom 1t has smiled. For many years they en- joy the big towns favors. Frau Wigman packs the halls this year , even as she did last. And Segovia or Argentina can still crowd Car negle Hall.
 But meet the 1882 favorite--al- though he has not yet landed on these shores! The fanfare Is ready; the echoes from abroad have been allowed to sound in the proper places.'
 His name is Vicente Escudero, and he Is Spanish dancer with q background far more colorful and romantic than most. For sev- eral years he has been pet of Paris.

He asserts that the operation of .
motor vehicle is a privilege, not an in
herent right, just as the practice Of
medicine is privilege granted only to
those who have proved themselves
proficient. And the doctors license
to practice, or the drivers to operate
car, may be taken away by the au-
thorities which granted them for the
same causes-violation of the rules Of
the game or incompetence.
The disciplinary functions of the
office, Mr.. Baughman asserts, have
been built up for the purpose of en-
forcing as effectively as possible the
provisions of the motor vehicles code,
And the code, in turn, is chiefly con-
cerned with making the highways
safe. He points out that all of the
activities of the disciplinary branches
are directed toward this latter end;
and that the end justifies the means
even though some few mild offenders
may suffer inconvenience, which, to
them, seems unnecessary.
