It will be used main, sporting events and training athletes. Its name will be the Moi» Lictoria. Building a Tower of Babel in the interests of sports rather than science is quite appropriate in our generation. However, for one Mole Lictoria. we have thousands of laboratories and universities. American Bankers’ Association urges Uncle Sam to nego- tiate with foreign governments to eliminate the passport system. Then you co travel freely from one country to another. No chance. The passport in Europe is more a police than a tourist device. We might profit by the German system, making every new arrival in a town report to police head- quarters within 24 hours to get his “papers” o. k.’d. Fugi- tives would be more readily traced, even in a large country. APE-MAN An ape-man saw a forest fire started by lightning. He picked up a piece of wood, blazing at one end, and ran into the darkness with it. That was man’s first form of artificial illumination. Recently Gene Sarazen played golf at night, the course illuminated by an electric searchlight of 400 million candle- powe Later this powerful light will seem, to future men, as primitive as the upe-man’s blazing fagot seems to us to- day. We are barbarians, by future standards. AUSE OF WAR organizations will meet in Washing: “to determine the cause and cure of S'x large women’: . D. C., in Januar The cause of war (barring rebellions for freedom) is us- ually profit. ‘Vhe cure for such wars is to take away the profit. Draft- -ing factories and dollars, the same as conscripting human bodies, would work wonders. STOLEN AUTOS Five autos, stolen in New York, were traced to Holland where they had been sold. This leads to arrest of three “leadeis of an international auto-stealing ring’”—something new in crime, exports and big enterprises. lr emphasizes that the theft of autos is becoming a highly ‘org: nized criminal industry. One way to check it is to make == all car drivers carry papers proving their ownership, with fingerprints and signatures attached. LINCOLN When Abraham Lincoln ran for president his campaign fund was only $100,000. Douglas spent half as much. Bryan ran three times. His fund averaged $600,000 for .each comnaign. McKinley held the record for a single candidate, his -fund in 1896 being $16,500,000. The 1924 funds will be known later. ct STRENGTH John de Vito, 18, modern Samson, is shown in news pic- tures lifting one end of an auto holding 13 people. Any one =-ean do the same thing with a lifting jack. Brute strength doesn’t count much any more, except in occupations where inventors have not yet figured out how to use machinery instead of human muscles. What counts is: How much can you lift mentally? , IDLE CARS In hard times, railroads have as many as 450,000 freight cars’ in good repair and ready for use, but idle. Lately the figure has been dropping, recently around *=* 100,000. A business boom apparently is not far off.

BY CONDO Sd Ty | | | s | | ‘ }WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1924: ALWAYS ROOM AT THE TOP Albert Apple ; Young men who are wondering what line of work to follow will be interested in this. So will others who, already started, find the road to success rough and steep. Each year American industry needs 40,000 new mining, electrical, hydraulic and other engineers. Yet our engineer- ing colleges are graduating only 9000 a year. So claims the National Industrial Conference Board. Colonel Barbour, editor of Mining and Metallurgy, chal- lenges the board’s claim. He says: “Nothing could be more absurd. Moreover, such a statement is tragically harmful to the current graduate and the young man who is about to decide on an engineering course of study. The engineering profession is already over-crowded.” . i Every business is over-crowded, for that matter. excep ‘branches of skilled labor where strict union rules hold down the number of apprentices. As far as mere numbers are concerned, we have too many engineers, too many doctors, too many lawyers, too many newspapermen, too many architects, too many retailers -— ‘and so on, the list is virtually endless. No matter what you decide to “take up,” you find that a ‘disheartening army of others has the same _ inclination. Even in aviation there is a waiting list. No field exists in which success is easy. ' The fact that success is difficult proves the existence of | sharp competition—over-crowding. + But over-crowding is mainly due to the presence of 4 multitude of incompetents. For every general, there are | thousands of privates who haven’t the making of a general, _ who couldn’t make good at the top no matter how often op- ‘portunity knocked at the door. | There are many electrical engineers, but only one Edison. {Many surgeons, but only a few Criles and Mayos. Many | criminal lawyers, but only 3 few Darrows. ! Plenty of room at the top, for the right man. If you are confident that you have the ability and stick-to-it-iveness to ;make good, young fellow, go ahead. Don’t falter, don’t ‘weaken, don’t be discouraged by “over-crowding.” ; A business, trade or profession may be over-crowded with inumbers—but never with ability. | | | | This pointed street corner in the New York of 1900 soon was to become the site of the famous sky-scraping Flatiron Building. Tall buildings and speeding traffic hadn't come inio style at that day. pcs a4 Some very fine people live in*‘New York. Over on the Bowery, for in- stance, is a young man who man- ages a house of ill repute. And he pays his father and mother to man- age another one for him. New York, Nov, 12.—The loneli-t ness of New York is indicated by the great number of dogs to be seen here. Community life is almost entirely lacking in the vast city. You may live for years in one house and not know ten people in the entire block. ‘Thus lonely New Yorkers turn to dogs for companionship. In any park you will see scores of them on leash. Shost-legged ones and long-legged ones. Short-haired ones and long- haired ones. Short-eared ones . and long-eared ones. -Short-tailed ones and long-tailed ones. . - I always pity these dogs which never have the chance to run free. I think it is nothing short of crim- inal to keep a‘collie or a police dog jcooped up in an apartment. However, I wonder if it isn’t down- right criminal to keep a child in a New York apartment. Y Three theaters in the Times Square district are displaying in their lob- bies photographs of nude and semi- nude chorus girls. It is the general belief that this sort of advertising attracts the men, It has been my personal observation that the women who gather about the photograph: outnumber the men two to one. I never have seen a man trying to fill a sieve with water, but the oth- \- er night I saw a man trying to sweep a Broadway sidewalk while the throngs were trooping to theat- ers. —JAMES W. DEAN.
