The much looked for Brown-Red Sox
deal did not come off while the st.

the success Of the new Federal league

not be through with baseball, except

has been through one baseball war, the
greatest up 70 the present time and
knows what to expect when new

saw the American league start just

succeeded because there was room for
two leagues. Young is confident there
is room now for three big leagues and
sees only a bright future for the Fed

CANAL READY NOW
IF NEEDED BADLY
WATER COULD BE LET INTO
THE PANAMA DITCH AT
ANY TIME.

REGINA, Saskatchewan, June s.
For eighteen months the Panama ca
nal has been ready for the passage
of ships should there be an emergen-
cy requiring the presence of war ves-
sells on the Pacific, says James Ar
thurs, one OF the strengthens, who
has been working on the canal for
the past two and half years.
ITO send them through now would
be very risky undertaking" said
Mr.. Arthurs today, "but it could be
done With twenty-four hours no
tice the canal could be flooded deep
enough for any warship or vessel in
the American navy.
"The work being cone now is that
of making the canal safe. The engi-
neers recognize that when the water
is allowed in there will be some ero,
sion and, unless preparations are
perfectly made, it will cause slides,
blocking the canal, and, should it
happen that there were a vessel be-
meath the slideing earth, there would
be disaster
Nevertheless, for the past year
and a half the canal has been deep
enough to allow ship to pass
through. The walls have not been
built up and made so solid that a
slide is impossible, and that is to a
great extent the work that is being
done now.
