SIR THOMAS ;LIPTON.
and that has made real sport lovers
of the United States ready to cheer
his victory more heartily than they
ould cheer the success of their own
would
The first race for the cup that has
come in.the past flfty.years to be the ,.
most coveted prize In the world of
sport took. places:, on. Aug. 22, 1851,
when the British Royal Yacht Squad-
ron offered a cup for the sailing boat
that was first round the Isle of
Wight. The winner turned up in the
schooner -yacht America,, designed tor•
a New York syndicate. It was in
honor of this yacht that the mug has
been called 'ever since the America's
Cup. With the cup in American
hands rules
- for its
defence, and since tYvthe America iea had
crossed the Atlantic under her own
sail, it was provided that challengers
thereafter should also cross the At-
lantic under their own canvas. It is
this condition which has --helped save
the cup for the United States these
many years past, and which consti-
tutes the obstacle that makes its win-
ning almost an impossibility.
In the days when the Americo.
won -the cup, a racing yacht was -
simply a 1asst sailing boat, differing
'from other boats as one star differs
from another in magnitude, or as one
greyhound differs from another in
speed. In these later days a racing
yacht has come to differ from a sail-
ing boat as a bulldog differs from a
greyhound. That is to say, a yacht
capable of crossing the Atlantic un-
der her alitiesl
bulldoghas to have some
q f stat nchness and
seaworthiness, whereas when she en-
tered
wi h theewould she confront-
ed pure greyhound edbreed,
and the contest was a race not a
catch -as -can affair. This condition,
which leading American sportsmen
have denounced as unfair, in that it
imposed tasks upon the challenger
from which the defender was exempt,
prevented the earlieren
es
from
hall g
c
having a ghost of a chance. Indeed,
the first return match the British
challenger had to compete against all
the New York Yacht Club boats that
wanted ,to sail, because the America
had to compete against the whole
English squadron. This term was lat-
er abandoned.
There is another condition, how-
ever, which. makes the task of the
challenger more difficult, and which
will make its final victory, should it
come, all the more glorious. That ie
the fact that the New York Yacht
Club, per-
mittedcustodian
of the c defenIs
tobuildas many
ing
yachts as it pleases or as, its mem-
bers desire. The yachts , then hold
elimination conteets, tend the very
fastest of them is i'tte»'en to defend
the cup. Presure ' l;• the British
yachtsmen have tr., 00 privilege.
Lord i)unraven r.= _!: several at-
tempts and then r •1up, having
some to the conclu ..;n that he had
about as much chat. of lifting the
cup as he would 1, : e, of lifting il,
red-hot stove, and entertaining opin-
ions of American sportsmanship
which were only equalled by Ami`

his property for bits of paper. Even
though supported byy subventions
from Bolshevik headquarters, - the

unless you have goods to offer. Wages
In Russia have nominally gone tip
tenfold, but of what use is 300` r`u-
bles a week if the rubles have .ne
purchasing power? The so-called-410-
eialized republic is producing gen-
eral misery for reasons long -foreseen.
Socialism has so devoted itself to the.
study of the evils of distribution.,as.
to ignorethe greater problem of.Pro-
blem of production: But stern facts
are bringing home the truth that ,if
little is produced .equitable distribit-
lion is of small value, ' • •
Concurrently there is a great` fall,
ing off in agriealtilral . production..
The peasant is producing no more
than is necessary for -his ' family
needs. • If he produces 'more it is re-
quisitioned, and he gets rubles of no
purchasing power. He can sw'ait.his 1,
grain for nothing of rear value.. 'So -,
lie plants less and .Consume$ in his :.
home •more of what . he raises. In
many districts half or more of the
I
tillable land is idle, and next yea.)'tlte'
percentage idle is likely to inerease.
same trepidation.
The world is in P
because Of Bolshevism. But the ex-
perience
xperience the Russian masses are en-
during is calculated to lift the appre-
hension. What counts is that the sys-
tem, bad as it is for the lioureoisie, is
worse for t the eery
proletariat the
Lenine for doubtless
sincerely enough, desires to serve,..
If the effects are as they are in prirpie
tive Russia, with most of her people
living on economically pelf -sufficing
bits of land, what would be the re-
sult in countries more highly organ
ized? Suppose in Canada the food
supply were reduced 60 per-eent.,.and
the farmers would not send anything
to the cities .because the cities had
nothing that the farmers desired to
send to the country? A fearful thing
is it to wreck a complicated Indus-
trial machine, which functions node
too well when therein confidence to
oil it. Capitalism deserves many of
the bad things said of it, but
through its leadership civilized so-
ciety gets some measure of co-ordina-
tion andco-operation among differ-
ent working elements.. Throw society
toack ral sage, simplicities large numbe pas-
t, of
persons whose livelihood depends on
the creation of : a large number of
non-essential articles are certain to
.
starve to death. BolshevikItosia
s
promises to be a missionary to the
world, telling it plainly what not to
do. Socialism will doubtless con-
tinue to make progress in the future
as in the past; but its progress will
be no faster than its development of
an industrial leadership practically
as good as capitalistic leadership,
When it tries to hurry on more rapid-
ly than this it defeats its own ends
by creating new and better compete-
tive individualism, -
