WILSON AND WALL STREET

Many persons were puzzled yester-
day to note that President-elect Will
son had made public the following
telegram, the sender OF which was
unknown TO him:
7Dont be such a fool. Use your
brains and keep your mouth shut
Don't be a silly ass and make the
" hole country ashamed OF YOU"
Ii was an unusual procedure for a
man Of Gov. Wilson's poise. and in his
position, TO dignity in this manner an
obscure and stupid affront. His act
seemed like childish pique. On the
contrary, II was q studied and import
ant bit OF political diplomacy. II was
an effective public notice TO Wall-st.,
from which the message emanated,
that the president-elect recognizes It's
enmity and is prepared to meet 1t.
This Ia, indeed, but closer forming
Of the lines of battle the coming or
which has been apparent for weeks;
It is one Of the few moves indicating
the preparations for a great struggle.
He makes this quite clear Il stand

speeches that stirred criticism. /
have given no consideration TO the re
ports OF Waists dissatisfaction.
And OF the telegram, he says: Il
make this public because | want the
country to know that | get that sort
OF criticism from New York" In ad-
dltion, he adopted the usual official
method OF clarifying his position
through a similar statement put out
by his secretary.
The significance OF these moves is
to be understood only by reference to
his Chicago speech, in which he stern
ly warned the financial powers or
what would be required OF them. The
vital part OF II was this:
"You must put the credit OF this
country at the disposal Of everybody
on equal terms. ." And on top OF
all this we must see to 1t that the
business OF the United States Is set
absolutely free Of every feature OF mo-
nopoly.'
sullen silence greeted these utter
ances: the hundreds Of captains or In
dustry and finance present showed
their resentment. And he was not adj
dressing them alone, but the whole
system they represent, as Is made
clear in his recent comment.

first move In the contest II Is known

WINTER SPORTING DOPE FROM EVERYWHERE
Who Will Play Shortstop for Cubs?
Well, Who Will?

If Joe Tinker does not come to the
Cubs next season-and the chances
are overwhelming against such a
happening will cavort between
second and third bases for the local
representatives in the National
League?
We pause for reply. This question
is not asked so we can use up two or
three hundred words showing off our
knowledge, and assisting President
Murphy to run his ball outfit. We
have sincere thirst for knowledge.
The opinion is general that Al
Bridwen will not go through the sea-
son as the regular guardian of the
shortfield position. If a competent
man is developed from the youngsters
now on the Cub roster, or if some
fast man can be nabbed in trade,
Bridwel won't even start.
Bridweu was an emergency man
last year With the departure of Tin
ker a gap was left in the Cub infield,
and Murphy was forced to fill it on
short notice. 1t was no place for a
recruit, so Bridwen was secured. 1t
is doubtful if Murphy expected the
former Giant and Brave would last
more than one season.
Notice that Red Corriden was not
kept on the bench regularly, even
when Bridwel was in playing condi-
ton. He was learning his trade. The
instruction embraced both actual
work and watching how the other
fellows did it.
How Corriden would perform as a
regular is undetermined. His batting
was weak in the last campaign, and
his fielding was nothing marvellous.
But he is young, aggressive, fast, and
conducts himself like a bahplayer.
The ability seems to lie just under the
surface.
