NEW BOATS THIS SUMMER A REVIVAL OF OLD TIME REGATTA WILL BE PULLED OFF THIS SEASON, The South Jersey Racing Associntion is preparing for a vacht racing season unparelled in its history. | The Corinthian Yacht Club, . Cape May, the Chelsea Yacht Club, the Atlantic City Yacht Club and the Ocean City Yacht Club, all nre anticipating the most active season in the history of the sport and planning accordingly. Many of the young men who enlisted in the navy during the war and were placed on coast guard duty have developed into motor boat enthusiasts. Many of these men are having built or are buying boats. New enthusiasm has been created and a revival of the

There are a number in this class; the Bob-c-Link I1, Morton R. Alexander‘s new (1918) displacement racér, for this boat. The W. G. H., owned by hook G. Haise, a classy bullt last year, is another.

Fred Betts; the Dennisson, owned by Commodore Gallagher, and others. With these boats and a number of othera in the same class a | regatta without an equal for many years can be pulled off that would keep yachtsmen on edge for some time.

That conflict is just as direct today as it was then. Therefore those who believe in patriotism have a right to feel concern because the parlor socialists gennerally approve the supposed reconstruction aime of President Wilson. The very fact that the general public has the vaguest idea of vhat these purposes are coupled with the assurance of the "highbrow" socinlist leaders seem to feel that they ave identical with the pre-war . doctrines of socialism as to nationaiity, cause anxiety among advocates of Americanism of the Lincoln, Washingfon and Roosevelt brand | who . lock beneath the surface of things and in this day of secret diplomacy try to discover what is meant by grandiloquent phrases evidently intended . to meen all things to all men.

ER THE FIGHTING is over, Just about the time the lingerie and silk nether apparel of the 150 members of the Wilson junketeers was being returned from the Paris Imundrics, the story broke in Washington that: the armless and legless soldiers confined in the Walter Reed Hospital at the Netions capital were obliged to do their own washing, using bathtubs, or or any other available receptable fer that purpose. The staid old Evening Star is to be credited for the scoop, and the hospital mutherities had to admit the fact, offering as a ples in in obeyance that no authority existed to hire the laundering of the clothes of our crippled moldiers. Aud if this has been the care in Washington, it has undoubtedly been the case elsewhere where our wounded soldiers are perating. This disgusting example of the red pe and Bakerisn inefficiency moved ven so staunch a defender: of the

Administration . as | Senator Thomas, Demoerat of Colorado, to the verge of profanity. "If I were to give you my real opinion and cloth my thoughts in Tesijpuage that would fit; you couldu‘t print what I would say," declared Mr. Thomas, "Why we are spending our mobéy‘like dranken sallors to féed the bolsheviki abroad‘ while we . are allowing the peoplé at home to go to hades. ‘We just voted $100, 000, 000 to hely. the people of Europe and we are allowing the boys who gave their linibs for their country to do their own washing. It‘s a d--d shame. I am too indignant to say any more on this subject T don‘t want to burn any asbests." The very night following the STAR expose, a visitor to one of the many Crandall moving picture theatres in ‘Washington, (the Knickerbocker) saw a large urn in the center of the lobby with a placard on it saying "Contribute a Cane-for the Crippled Soldiers mt Walter | Reed — Hospital." Heavens! the wer heroes! They must depend upon private offerings. Was ever such a miserable record written into our history ms that of ‘the War Department . under | the | impossible Pansy Baker, whom Wilson described as the ablest executive officer he had ever known. ‘The Rec Cross, as usual, has come to the aid of the soldiers by undertaking to do their washing, while Panity ges on with his daily business of Explaining why he falled in this or that, and the people of Washington office in order to speed up the turns. Now comes the disquieting nformation that complete Hsts will not be in probably until September. --mtew ___ Petition Forms for City Commiaon on sale at Star and wave SthtionDepartment.

SCHOOLS OF POLITIC®, |_ Fundamentally, there . are — two schools of political | thought in the United States, one composed of people who believe in government by ‘law and the other of — people . who believe in the government by men we find the mdvocates of autocracy, and (the 1. W. W. The advocates of mutosracy include not only those persons In governmental positions who assume to place their own judgement and whims above the law, but also those few leaders of industry on the one hand and those few leaders of organized labor on the other who set out to achieve their nelfish ends because they have the power and in disregard of the rights and welfare of the rest of the people of the country. "The anarchist, otherwise known as the I. W. W., or Bolshivik, is an advocate of ‘direct action‘ -that is, the enforcement of his own individual opinion and desire regardless of the wi

of the majority. The advocate of ‘direct metion‘ is mot always identified Ma a A ares sometimes gets into official position jand proceeds with his ‘direct action‘ | prifcipal in the enforcement of his in{dividuat will regardless of the will of the people as expressed in the form of law. No man who has been observing {has failed to recognize acts performed jby government officials in the last jtew months bearing all the charncter{isles of ‘direct nction‘, It is true that they did not drive spikes in saw logs {or put emery dust in the lubricating [ail of mills, but they none the less effectively met their own personal judgements above the spirit if not the letter of the law, to the injury of pro[perty rights just as valuable and just jms sacred as the property right in a [saw-mill or fron-working plant. "It makes little difference. what badge a man may wear upon his coat jor what title he aquire or assume; if [he is a believer in ‘direct action‘, he is in all essential respects an anarchist and an 1. W. W. "Fortunately for the future of the American Republic, the Bolshivists are relatively few. The great mass of the | American people are law-loving and [faw- abiding. They recognize that our | governmental system is not perfect ‘and that many ills remain to be removed; but they believe in going about the curing of ills in an orderly lawful, sane and intelligent manper. ‘They deplore ‘direct action, an certain to lead to infustice than a policy of bearing with ills we have until a remedy can be found and administered. | "Dire action‘ in the seizure and partial destraction or injury of proper f ty, or interests therein has been ex-; cused upon the plea that it is neces sary as a war measure, but the more the people of the country study the facts the more they are coming to realize that the explanation is an ex« cuse more than a reason. | Having made known their condemnation of ‘direct action‘ when exercised by the more ignorant, and therefore less responsible portion of dur people, the sober, thoughtful, and truly patriotic citizens should tow express in every way their power, and at every opportunity, their condemnation of ‘direct action‘ when exercised by men in high piaces. The L W. W. are few-the advocates of government by law are many, And the meny are on the side of right and justice. wee_RESOURCES NOT ENDLESS We have been preceeding in this country as if there were no end to the resources of the American people. We are, indeed, the richest people in the world; thank a half century of constructive Republican policies for that. But there is a bottom to every purse; m limit in extravagence and waste which cannot safely be passed even by the American people. We have yet to pay the bills incurred during the past two yearn. The theory that only the rich will have them to pay is a demagogical lie, for if every rich man in the United States were stripped of his last penny today, it would not begin to pay, not the cost of the war, but the price of the waste and travagance vhich have marked the administration of national affairs dur ing the past few years. Indifference to this situation on the part of the citizenship of the country is just as reprehonsible as indifference among the peoples representatives in public life. This is a matter in which he people should arouse themselves, and make themselves heard by their reperentatives in public authority. t is a matter of more vital concern, erhups, than some of the seemingly larger public questions that are being ore generally discusad. nvpremnen ac mmeament BLUE PRINT PENCILS, best grade white, 10 cents each, $1.00 per doz.

This would necessitate having the canners open the factories sooner in the season, | After onsiderable discussion or. this subject by the growers it was suggest ed that the representative growers of tomatoes in each district of the county be called together to meet the canners and discuss the possibilities of getting a considerable part of the tomato ncreage planted early and having the houses open a few weeks earlier than has been the custom in the past. . The County Agent will try to further the interests of the Cape May County tomato industry arranged and calling a meeting soon. --mea-__ COMMUNITY MEETINGS COMING, The Chairman of the following communities have called meetings for the purpose of discussing farm problems, electing committees and getting the benefit of the New Jersey Experiment Station Specialists.

Even where he has rye and vetch planted jhe has applied this cheap material. ‘As vetch is heavy and thick near the ground it will help to rot the sea drift before it in plowed. Look out for a big crop. Sixty-nint farmers ordered 22% tons of Nitrate of Soda. The high price of fruit and scarcity ‘of nursery stock is causing fruit grow» ers to trim up the "old apple tree" and to plant new ones. Don‘t allow yourself to plant your permanent apple trees neerer than 40 feet apart. J. A. STACKHOUSE, County Agent.
