AMERICA RETAINS
CUP; DEFENDER

By George Kent
New York. July" 28. America
has tucked away a fourth Shamrock

victories.
Resolute spun serosa the line -
victor by IS minutes., 5 second. She
Is the thirteenth craft to successfully
defend the. pitcher shaped trophy
from covetous Britishers.
- Thiers probably will be at least two
years' dutt on the cup before-lt it Is
brushed off again for a new challenger
to look on it.
Sir Thomas Llpton has announced that
he will try again to win away tliw oup
In 1922.
BfRTOIT HAS HEADWOEK
The wind was swinging on a pole
Tuesday morning. It swung clear
around from north to south, and later
In the (fay dropped flat on the ocean
and disappeared.
After two hours of dalliance at the
tape the ppstponement signal dropped
and the craft leaped back behind the
line and then out again. Shamrock, for
the first time In the series, out-jockeying
' the defender and winning the windward.
Skipper Burton displayed his full bag
of tricks, and every one was a Jim
Dandy. ', His vessel pointed higher than
the Resolute and for the first time in
the races Burton showed no hesitancy.
V8E8 HEU BAUOOXEB
Shamrock ki-hooted ahead, stretching
wide the distance between her and the
gleaming defender. She bore toward the
highlands. Resolute caught a wind and
- for a time outpointed the flying Irish
man, gained on her after a while, but
when she tried to cross the bows of
the opposing yacht, Burton thwarted the
' . move.
.Not many miles from the turn, how
ever. Resolute tried to cut across the
bows ot Shamrock and; this time suc
ceeded. (She passed her on the tack, and
rolling on to windward caught the breeze
titers and left the Shamrock four min
utes behind.
The lilt home was like: all lilts home,
fraught with one idea, the finish. Reso
lute kicked wide her ballooner and
creaked her tightly fitted itlmbers In the
effort for the finish -line.
FLUKE WIND COMES
The Lipton sloop trailed in toward
shore, counting, perhaps, on a wind. The
calculation was wrong. She never found
the wind.
Resolute drifted out somewhat and
the two yachts rode on widely removed
from one another. At 5:30 the racers
were doldrummed by the sudden decrease
of the wind.
Resolute jibbed in toward the shore
-end found a wind. Someone must have
thrown-iron dollars into the sea at the
moment for the breeze was a fluky arti
, cle and was unexpected. Notwithstand
ing, It was this wind which whirled her
horns the winner. f
- Shamrock- was more than a mile and a
half behind when the race was overr
The finishing time was:
Resolute, 7:52:15.
Shamrock, 8:05:20.
- The finish of the contest today came
as a sort of nticliniax. The delaying
of the races three times had tUrnei the
attention of the average reader from
. yachting to other and more quickly mov
ing events.' - V
: America defended her property suc
. cessfully, but the fact would not have
been nearly as theatrical as the success
ful -lifting of the cup by Sir Thomas
Llpton.
Sir Thomas was cheery all day. He
recalled his haste in ordering the con-
- structton of a cup cabinet before the
- cup was actually in his possession, but
said it was certain the case would come
in handy some day. He promised he
would return for the cup in 1922.
The day was one of the clearest, pleas
anest days ever unfurled by OI Man
- Daylight. The sun was hot, at times too
hot, and It seemed that the heat was
the cause of the small wind. At no time
in . the race was anyone confident it
. would be run to a finish. The sharps
found satisfaction in the improvement
of Burton, but beyond that the race was
one ot the dullest of the entire race

At il:45 yesterday
hoisted the signal "V"

that they's too much salt In the water
for a raca today. ? The Resolute coun
tered with the signal "M" the signifi

SKIPPER ALSO GREEK
-Speaking of green, nobody knew why
old Tom had his slop painted green till
the race was over. Then It was rumored
mat color matched the skipper, and
speaking 6f skippers nobody knew
why they called them skippers till
everybody found, out that it was because
they skipped so many days when they
might be sailing. '
Don't leave 'anybody forget that the
Shamrock had a handicap ,of six min
utes ap 40 seconds on , account of her
sail acreage or something. It's Just like

Technically, when the race started
both scows went on the carpet tack

thing, to say about the two slops. But
if you could of seen them in the last
two days you wouldn't say thaF any

them.
GET HALYARDS FIXED -
One of the officers on the board of
our destroyer said he wished we had
left 2 subs in the German navy so they
could rise up and smite both catboats
and put them out of their missouti.'
Personly when the race- was over too
soon, us reporters went to the ship hos
pital and had our throat halyards taken

a disease like was that.

MISSED OBJECTIVE
IN STRIKE INQUIRY
(United N.wt) .
New York, July 28. The Inter

Ing; inijuiry into the causes of the
great steel strike In Its find
ings resulted in the finish of the In
terchurch World movement as an in
vestigating body, at. least in indus
trial enterprises. - ,
The report, which was' released to the
public only after a bitter debate within
the organization, which resulted In the
withdrawal of two sects, severely con
demns the steel corporation for what it
terms "autocratic methods" and Is
wholly sympathetic with the aspiration
of the strikers. r 1
CAUSE OF FAILURE ' .
- As to the defeat of the strike, the In
terchurch World movement purports to
discover that the revolt was killed by
public opinion. superinduea by public
ity and propaganda leveled at . Bolshe
vik and radical elements within tU8
strikers' ranks. A contributory, cause.
It states, was the disorganization of the
workers, the refusal of the American
Federation of Labor to stand back of
the men and the prevailing prejudice
against foreigners.
iCconcIudes, moreover, that the causes
of the strike still exist ; that "further
unrest is inevitable, and that another
strike must come." ,
There have long been bints as to the
color the report would take. It was no
secret that the Investigators sent Into
the field by the movement were heart
and soul with the strikers, and rumors
of dissensions within the church ranks
began to come thick and fast soon aft
er the investigation was completed.
The Presbyterians were the first to
announce their decision to withdraw
their support from the movement. They
based their decision upon the grounds
that the movement was not fulfilling its
true purpose in "Investigating" social
conditions. V K
They were followed, about four weeks
ago, by the Baptists, who severed their
connection with the organization on simi
lar grounds. t ,' . ; ; ;
TAKE -STRIKERS' SIDE i
Now comes ' the report, which : fulfills
every previous rumor as to. its radical
stand. " ' -j ;
The fundamental grievance of the steel
workers, the Investigators found, were
excessive hours, the "boss system" and
The strike was conducted, it was found,
in orthodox fashion according to the
American Federation of Labor rules,
and while radicals generally sympathized
with the strikers, as was natural; they
were effectually debarred by the strike
leaders, and far from ' having . Influence
in it, they often denounced and opposed
those who conducted the strike. '
There waa a 12-hour day, whether -on
a broken division of ,11-13 hours or 10-14;
hours, the report finds. It calls the un-
broken 24-hour period, t the end of a
shift and the underpayment of unskilled I
labor- inhuman. ... - j
BOSS SYSTEM HIT -"
Sneaking of tha boss system, the in-!
vestigators declare that the steel com
pany's plants were managed in a mili
tary and autocratic method of council,
and that the right to Join unions and the:
right to conferences to correct grievances j
are theoretical ; neither . ;is allowed-,. In
practice.' . , -
In it seventh clause, the report says:
. The strike was defeated by
The strikebreaking methods of the
steer companies and their effective mobil
isation ;of public i opinion ; against the
strikers . through the charges of radl
calismV Bolshevism and the closed shop,
none of whioh were justified by the
facts, -and by the suppression of civil
rights. "
CLAIM 2TEW8 BIASED -
The . hostility of the. press, giving
biased and colored news, and the silence
of the press and pulpit on actual ques
tion of Justice involved.; .
. Public fear ot a general labor war

EIGHT HOURS. URGED .
- As a soiotion for the unrest and a'
bar to f urtherstrikes, the - report calls
for the adoption of the eight-hour shift
of Americanism and "Americanization,
"education -of the public to their cause,
and. finally, in ' alliance with ' the sal
aried class, known as brain workers."
, . At the conclusion ot its report, the
investigation committee urged a con
tinuance of the industrial department of
the Interchurch World movement and
the -social commission of the Federated
Council of Churches, that It may con
tinue "this type of impartial investi
gation of industrial strife and unrest and
extend It to studies of general con
ditions in Industry affecting the life."
peace and welfare of all concerned."
' "In the measure." It finally declares,
that working ' men become' intelligent
and Americanised, will they refuse to
labor under such conditions.
: The report hi ot stupendous length
and. would make at least 100 full news
