It adapts itself to work with all nationalities. 3. lS works with all religious denominations. {. It Is in ternational in Its character. It serves all nations, in the world. s. It has an all round program. It shows that life is more than sports, or religion or anything else, 6. It has developed professional workers who are skilled in studying social problems. 2. It has challenged the attention of youth as a great youth organization on sound Christian principles, as conn pared with Fascist countries with war-like youth movements. 8. The Y. M. o. A. has established hundreds of camps in Europe, for the devel- ment of national character, and the building of international under standing.

militiamen withdrawn from tho track. Troops had been ordered tc the track Oct. l7 by Governor Rob. ert Y. Quinn, now in Washington, tc prevent holding of the fall meet scheduled to open next day. The phantom" meet ended yesterday without e single race having beer run.
 Proclamation Reads
 "Whereas on the 18th day of co. tober 1887, Q proclamation was Is. sued by Governor Robert E. Quinr and amended on the 2lst day of Oc' tober, 1887 declaring martial law tt exist ct NaYragansett Park and cer' tain territory surrounding in the city of Pawtucket and the town of East Providence,
 "Now, therefore. I. Raymond F Jordan, acting governor of the state of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, do hereby declare the existence of such martial law to be terminated at l2 o'clock noon today
 Though 300 troops originally were assigned to guard the park, the num- Der later was reduced to 60. Nearly lS others subsequently, were permit ted to return to civilian jobs.
 The martial law proclamation ell. naaxed Quinn's feud with O'Hara.
 Suspended License
 The Quinn controlled racing com mission previously had suspended Narragansett's license on four charges ranging from misappropria. ton of funds to creation and main. tenance of brawls and disturbances.
 Only three days before the fall meet opening, however, the state su- preme court quashed the suspension order on e teohnicality.
 Rather than held new public hear ings on the charges in the limited time, Quinn proclaimed martial law on grounds that the track was a hangout for gangsters imported by OHara ito intimidate and coerce and frighten public officials" and that its opening would result in bodily harm and Injury to our cit- izens."
 300 Troops on Guard
 Three hundred troops guarded the track the first few days, but this force soon was reduced to o9. The martial law area likewise was rec duced. Despite the ban, racing secre- tary Pat Morgan daily carded races only to cancel them at scratch time because of martial law" Likewise the track clocker daily reported for duty though there were no races to time. The martial law incident was estimated to have cost Rhode Island taxpayers at least $4l0,000. Of this 9400,000 represented lost taxes and the remainder, the cost of militia maintenance.
 Fight Is Not Ended
 Lifting of maytial law by no means would end the Quinn. O 'IIara dis pute. With Quinn still determined to drive O'Hara from Rhode Island these "skirmEhes" remain:
 l. Federal grand jury study of Narragansett's possible violations of the federal corrupt practices act through contributions to political leaders.
 2. Two criminal libel suits against O'fara.
