Compared with the hefty nnaulsrs

but they are about the best that the
game provides today. Each has GER
tain claims to high honors because of
past victories, and the title should be

Ban Johnson says he is anxious for

Promoters Of the new organization
declare they are quite willing to salts

Baseball fans generally are not
aVerse to struggle, as it can't hurt
their interests, and may provide bet
ter entertainments.
With this unanimous desire for
battle, the decks are cleared, and
there is nothing to prevent a merry
little revolution on the diamond
Viewed from the cold standpoint of
logic, Johnson's statement listens like
sincerity. The big boss of the game
intimates that there are many objec-r
tionable citizens connected with the
business end of the game, and he be-
heves a war viii eliminate them.

statement that I'VE need tohing

to overlook the fan entirely, and are
only interested in gathering in the
coin as quickly as possible.
They overlook the fact that sooner
or later the worm viii turn, and the
fans will resent some of the treat

cent accommodations when they
give their money in at the gate, and
If such accommodations are not
given, then the fans will welcome a

PARCELSPOST TO
ADMIT Of BOOKS
CONGRESS HAS BEEN ASKED TO
MAKE EXTENSIONS FOR THE
NEW SYSTEM"

Washington, Jan. lit is likely
in the Judgment of authorities OF
the postoffice department, to be only
short time until books and other
printed matter, now handled as third
class mail at s cents a pound, will
be made mailable as parcel post
matter. Steps, it became known
Thursday, already have been taken
to induce congress SO to amend
the parcel post act as to permit
printed matter to be sent by par.
Gel post.
In line with this idea. Postmaster
General Hitchcock decided Thursday
that senders of parcel post packages
containing merchandise might inclosc
printed matter descriptive of the
contents without affecting their
classification. His order is an
amendment to existing parcel post
regulations which provide that the
inclusion in a package of any print
ed matter subjects the entire pack
age to the third class rate of post
age.
In rendering his decision the post.
master general heh that the object
of the parcels post law was to en-
courage the mailing of greater guam
titles of fourth class matter 1t was
shown to him that much OF the mer-
chandise sent by the parcel post
required descriptive tags or labels
and in his decision he held that such
printed matter came within the term
for purpose of description" used in
the law.
That the new order will be of al
vantage not only to the users of
,arcel post, but also to the govern
ment, is indicated by the statement
of one firm that it will increase the
use of the mails from 100000 annu'
ally to more than S1,O0O,O0O.
