KS 85,000 GRANT Member of N. S. Parliament Urges Money to Encouraging Sailing Races. Halifax, May 13.—When William {Duff, M. P. for Lunenberg, N. S rose in parliament and requested” a nt of 85 to encourage sailing races between the deep sea fishing vessels of Canada and those of other nations, he raised the question wheth- er the government should aid an in- ternational contest which may delay progress, because it is encouraging sall in its last stand against the en- encroachments of mechanical power. Mr. Duff told the house that two sailing vessels had been built in New England and two in Nova Scotia dur- ing the past winter to compete in the international ocean races to be held off Gloucester this fall. When these were instituted, New Jngland had practically ceased to build fishing vessels relying entirely on sail; and lin Nova Scotia too most of the newer fishing vessels were being equipped | with motor engines and propellers in addition to sails. If it had not been | for the international races it is prefty safe to say fishing vessels of auxiliary mechanical power would have been built in New England last winter. races FAST TRACK | Pimlico Races This Afternoon Are Certain to Be Good Ones, Baltimore, May 13.—A fast track was promised for the running of the Preakness this afternoon at Pimilico, a crowd of 80,000 was expected to witness the $50,000 classic.

They are ol the opinion that a swimming pool in such close proximity to so many homes would have a tendency to depreciate the value of their properties, The site of the proposed pool is in the heart of a residentlal district embracing parts of Shuttle Meadow avenue, Arch street, Wallace street, Madison street, Monroe street, l.yons street and Linwood street, This has always been a residential section, the majority of houses having been erect- ed by workingmen who have saved and sacrificed to build homes for themselves and thefr families and to enjoy the increment ferived from the ownership of dwelling houses. Most of them have been paid for and the owners can now sit back and enjoy the fruits of their early planting. Throughout the entire section there are not half a dozen stores or other commerclal enterprises. It is a com- munity of homes. Consequently, residents recommend that the estab- lishment of a swimming pool at Rhodes' pond be permanently aban- doned. They fear that a horde of youngsters in the neighborhood every afternoon during the summer months would prove an annoyance to house- wives and a menace to gardens and fruit trees. FEven the presence of a police officer would not be sufficient to check the wild spirits of youth, they say, because the officer would find it necessary to remain at the pond while predatory and mischievous boys roamed through the neighbor- hood, which has no police protection during the daytime except for the oc- casional visit of a motorcycle police- man. Furthermore, there {s a sentiment in that district of having the old Rhodes ice house on the shore of the pond demolished and removed from sight. If this were done, the next logical step would be to destroy the dam which forms the pond and allow the water to run off through a culvert similar to that which car- ries it away on the south side of Arch street, Jiventually Rhodes’ pond will be condemned. In the summer time when water is low it is almost choked with vegetation which grows just be- neath the surface. It does not add to the valuation of proper by any meang and the day is coming when it will be done away with. In the mehntime, residents of the neighborhood strongly object to Mayor Paonessa's plans to establish a swimming pool there. The alder- man and councilmen from the first ward can secure ample corroboration of this statement by inquiring among property owners in the vicinity. v e Members of the police®commission are to be commended for their stand in favor of ha#vtng representatives of the press present at their meetings. Mayor Joseph M. Halloran to hold open edey ex it was the practice 0P cungs, but during later adminis- rations the door was shut and re- mained shut while police, commis- sions conducted thelr business. This led to many misunderstandings, the circulation of rumors which were Jater found to be made out of whole cloth and to an unsatisfactory situa- tion for all concerned, with the pos sible exception of the ruling mayor. Although newspapermen have no official standing, they form the link between those who govern and those who are governed. Under our pres- ent arrangement of conducting public affairs, reporters are almost the only point of contact between the elected and the electors. Therefore, while they have no standing in the eyes of the law, a stronger law founded on morals hacks them in their hunt for information which newspaper read- ers expect to find in print, In small cities and town everyone knows everyone else, news of public business becomes common property almost as soon as it is trans- acted. In communities where the population has its mind occupied in various pursuits for earning its daily bread, there is need of an alert pre: which can report what transpires in official reles. Unfortunately, there are alws public officials who be- lieve that what they do is their own business in which the public has no interest. They withhold news which where ——re e the people have a right to hear. In order to circumvent thelr arrogance it is nccessary for reporters to use all the talents at their disposal to learn what I8, going on from other sources, It {8 sald that women cannot keep secrets, Perhaps that is true, It is certall that men cannot, and for that reason many officials confide news of their acts to others, the others pass it along, and eventually it trickles into a reporter's ear In distorted form, | The Observer hopes that the police commission and the reporters will be able to get along together. Some- times a difference of opinion arises between the press and a commission over ‘what constitutes news, The mere ukase by a commissioner that “We don't care to have this appear in print” should not be sufficient causc always for keeping it out of print. Reporters gnd city editors usually use their own judgment in matters affecting their papers. It is a pleasure to learn that the new police commission has thrown open the door to the membhers of the Fourth Estate. This only goes to prove that the world is rapidly ap- proaching normalcy. e Announcement by the police board that it had selected William Hart for director of the detective bureau and William P. McCue for sergeant was received with satisfaction generally. Both men have seen much police ser- vice and it is an incentive to younger members. of the force to know that promotion can:be expected if they perform thejr duties loyally and afficiently. Both Hart and McCue have been active as members of the strong arm squad, the former being head of all activities and in charge of the cam- paign to stamp out violations of the eighteenth amendment. , That they have done what they =et out to do, re- gardless of whether public sympathy is with them, is shown by the long Iist of offenders they have hailed be- fore the bar of justice. The question of whether the strong arm squad shali be continued will probably be discussed by the police commission in the near Tuture, It is hinted that the squad may be discon- tinued, with Hart and McCue occu- pied with routine work of their re- spective positions. Chief Rawlings appears to be in favor of mainthining a squad and suspects that any oppo- sition to its existence comes from those who have felt the hand of the law heavily on their shoulders. e It is to be hoped that the recom- mendation of City KEngineer = Wil- ilams for the adoption of a paving policy will be given serious consid- eration by the new poard of public works. Because of financial short- age, it has been necessary to spend money sparingly in the construction of new streets and the repair of old ones. Consequently, pavements have been allowed to deteriorate to such an extent that it will be necessary now to spend many thousands of dol- lars to put them into proper condi- tion. 1t might be well for the board of public works, if it has not already decided to do so, to study permanent improvement policies in effect in other cities. In some communities it is customary to adopt five-year road building programs with a plan of campaign well mapped out. 1t would seem to a layman that such a pro- gram in this city would not be out of place. New pavements are necessary to keep pace with the expansion of the city. Also enough money should be set aside to repair what roads we have. New Britain's streets are far from being in good condition. They close- ly resemble a patchwork quilt which has been years in the making. This is not the fault of anyone in particu- lar but the result of the retrench- ment that was necessary during the war and the years following. Former boards have done well with the funds at their command. From now on a uniform policy of rehabilitation ghould be adopted and followed out. R An interesting story confirmation but which persists in bobbing up now and then is being told concerning relations existing be- tween Mayor Paonessa and ex-Mayor Curtis and which might throw some light on the defeat of George A. which lacks ADAMSON'S ADVENTURES A Bone Head Play Quigley, Paonessa's opponent, at the polls, It 1s sald that on the night follow- ing ‘the republican primaries, when Curtls was lald low by Quigley, Curtis sought Paonessa and discussed the prospects of the election, ‘While Paonefsa was confldent of victory he realized that any help which could be obtained from any quarter could be used to gbod advantage. Accord- ing to the story, Curtls thought he might be of some assistance In de- feating his old foe, Quigley, and ex- pressed a desire to help the demo- oratic candidate as much as possible The result wuas, the story goes, that Curtis agreed to help Paonessa with the understanding that if elected, Paonessa was to appoint him (Cur- tis) chairman of the water commis- slon, which office carries, with it the sweet salary of $1,000 per annum. It is related that Curtls carried .out his agreement, A The next chapter is written by the democratic members of the common council. They learned of the agree- ment and decided to prevent its con- summation, if possible. Rumor has it that they had a session with the newly clected mayor and threatened to obstruct his every move should he execute his plan to appoint the ex- mayor head of the water board. Itis {mpossible to check up all the facts in the case because the parties con- cerned naturally refuse to talk. Color is given the story, however, by the recollection that soon after Paonessa was elected mayor it became gener- ally known that he intended to ap- point Curtis to the chairmanship of the water board. Then the name of Curtis suddenly dropped from the lst of eligibles and that was the last heard of it. Famous opera singer believes wom- en can sing best when dressed best.

Chicago, May 13' (By Associated Press)—There is a great shortage of labor, déspite the depression, in one field, the golf links, where caddies are too few. to fill the demand. This fact is cited in a statement sent out by the caddy committees of the coun- try's golf clubs as related in inter- change of ideas as to how enough caddies may be procured. The short- age is partly due to the unevenness of employment but the main reason is the situation of golf links as re- lated to large families. Another in- fluence is the fact that a boy more than 16 years old who caddies be- comes a professional and yet does not receive any more pay than an urchin of 12. The pay is good, ranging from 20 to 35 cents an hour depending on the club and the ability of the lad The boy who is a mere club c. rier and goes dragging after his player, longing more for a sandwich than for a chance to serve in finding the ball or selecting the proper club gets the smaller wage while the alert youth ranks higher and gets his re- ward. With the spread of golf fever in America it has been suggested that a full quqta of caddies be hired by the week and paid out of the club treasury, which in turn would. col- lect for busy time from the employ- ing player. The difference {f any, would be charged to a caddy fund or collected from the greens committee if the boys worked on the links at spare times. This plan would insure enough caddies for Saturday after- noons and holidays but would leave a surplus through the week when the links is comparatively quiet in Am- erica as compared with Great Britain where everyone plays every day ex- cept Sunday.
