Washington, Feb. i2.-er- ican merchant sailors of the future must be as much at Inline in the wter as on it. In other words, they must know how to swim. The United StaU.-., shipping board bas ordered its re ifuitine service, which is ftrftning thousands of young men for the mer chant service, to include swimming lessons in its training program.' It I is expected thift this instructTon will reduce Io,s of life at sea, as many mer chant sailors today are unable to swim a stroke.

Peace has paved the way for the come-back of baseball, and tho future of the game, as sec it, is brighter than ever. But the measure of suc cess the minor leagues will enjoy de- pends entirely on tho minora them selves. The Nntional Association gut what it asked for in the way of Independ ence through the abrogation of the nn tionnl agreement and the lifting of the draft. It is up to the minor leag uers to make the moat of it. , To my way of thinking there nre . two great evils in miner lengue ball. There Is the man who bunks tho public with "cheapness," and there is tho othur extreme the man who, because he wants to win and has .livfPly.of money, spends niore than ha takes In at the. turnstiles. This man forces his associates to spend like wise, and eventually disrupts his or gunizntion. , . junior lengue hnsebnll will never achieve success in its full measure - until these men arc eliminated from the game. The game mutt be put In the hands of sensible men with busi ness ideas; men who will give the pub lic what it nsks for its money's worth no more, no less.
