 Jim the new man, and the only man who will be admitted to the gym has a future of big and con sistent punishment in store for him. He has a place in the gym, where he is permanently located, and where the young women will have all kinds of time to take a fall out of him.

THE MANAGERS MEETING HERE
Baseball 'Magnates" Draw ing Near to Definite Un- derstanding on Subject of Statewide Schedule of Games

Baseball managers of the Salt River Valley will meet in The Republican office this afternoon for one of the most important sessions of the year. With a season that is just as long as the people will stand for, ahead of them, the magnates here find them selves needing an organization much like that one which was formed just year ago in this same office.
 The managers who are sure to come are those of Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa:
 Richard Yates of the Senators.
 Frank Castle of the Maroons.
 Abe Lukin of the Bears.
 Paul Langowski of the Jewels.
 Those who will be interested, but not personally represented, are the managers of the Tucson, Bisbee, Globe and Miami teams Proxies will be here for Globe and Miami.
 The idea in having representatives of the outside cities is to enable the managers to devise state-w wide schedule by which trips can be made without interfering with local sched .ules.

AMERICA IN WAR TINES

We have been receiving something
like 1,750,GO0 immigrants a year
and losing about 100000; net i'll
crease of population through immi-
grafton, about a million and a half.
The war is shutting down immi-
grafton, and increasing emigration.
A vast number of the most capable
young men are being drawn away TO
the war. Yet more will go as the
war continues.
The effect on the United States,
then, will be TO cost this country a
larger population luss than even the
European countries that must srs-
tain the greatest decimation Of their
young manhood in battle.
This country has been absorbing
and, somehow or other, utilizing, the
great numbers of immigrants. Not
to receive them for two or three
years will be as disorganizing TO rais
country as, to another country,
would be the loss Of a like MIR .ber
cf emierants.
This, too, in a time whea the de-
mand for labor is likely to be very
pressing. At present, in some direc-
ticns, there is an excess of labor; in
others, already, a shortage appears.
But in the long run-and not a very
long one, either-the demands upon
us to produce food and manufactures
for new markets must increase the
need for all available workers.
Nobody has thus far thought far
enough into the future to analyze
more than ritiful few of the effects
IF thc war here and elsewhere.

THE DETERMINING BAT
TIE.

Whatever the Immediate result of
the warfare along the road to Paris,
it is not TO be assumed thai the de-
cisive battle will be fought in the
region now enss ssnguined by the fury
cf the German onslaught ard the
allied defense. Whether the German
legions shall push their resistless
way to the gates of Paris, the fate
of France and Europe will not be
determined so soon. Even if Paris
fall after another narrowing siege,
il will not mean the end Of the war.
Ii the half Of the pessimlsm in
spired by German claims and the al
hes silence is justified by the events
of the last fortnight, then il may be
set down that Germany has covered
much Of the distance and perhaps
most of the actual fighting needed to
take her to the environs of the
French capital. But Paris will be a
tremendous task for her.
In 1870 it required four months to
reduce Paris and compel its surren-
der Even if a Sedan has now been
accomplished by the GeTmans--and
there is absolutely no reason to be-
lieve a comparable disaster has
overcome the allies-it w>ald, even
on that basis, be near the beginning

capitolate. Such an event IS heyond
what now seem the possibilities.

A REMARKABLE REPORT.

The joint Congressional Commit
tee on Railway Mail Pay has sub
mitted final report, recommending
immediate passage of a law to fix
definitely the compensation of the
railroads for hauling the mails.
There is feud between the commit
tee and the Postoffice Department,
the latter having plans which are
disapproved by the committee. Be-
tween the two, the one thing that
seems entirely clear to tine layman
is that the matter ought to be de-
tcrnined soon, end that The railroads
should be placed on a basis recog-
nizing their increased service by
-ea ason of the parcel post.
But the remarkable feature OF the
joint committees report is that
dealing with finances of its investi-
cation. Twenty-Five thousand dol
lars was appropriated by Congress
far expenses. By rights--or any
how, by precedents-this ought to be
$25,e6o gone for good.
Instead, the committee reports
that it has spent only s6,56C. The
members, former Senator'S Bourne
and Richardson, have served since
March, 1919, without pay, ard paid
their own expenses.
Some folks will have m:sgivings
Ebout the regularity of such a pro-
seeding. It's a precedent that one
day will rise up to cmbarrass junk
eters. Cannot measures be taken to
induce a revision that will add s13,-
440 to the expenses showing?

just begun to fight and tn send
troops-she will leave her home base
exposed to the Russians. SoUner or
later she must turn back to bent off
the horde from the east. If she gets
back in time to save Berlin, shc will
be followed by the united forces of
the French, Bclgians, ard British.
In that event, the battle for Berlin
will be the crisis Of the war. The
German army will then find itself In
or about Berlin, facing the united
power Of Russia, Franco. and Brit
ain.
But if Berlin meanwhile shall
have fallen while the flower of tho
German power has been in France,
then we may presume that the great
final will be set somewhere in the
region of the Rhine. The Germans
will be retiring upon their base, af-
ter their operations about Paris.
They will confront the Russians,
coming on from Berlin, and they will
have in their rear the rest Of the
allies, pressing forward from Paris
ana Belgium
For the rest, Leipsic was fought just
little over 100 years ago; Leipsic.
the Battle Of the Nations, the pre-
lude to abdication and Elba, the fore
shadowing of Waterloo and St.
Helena. Leipsic was the demons stra-
tion that Napoleon was not invin-
chile in central Europe, as Moscow
had proved that he could not fight
a Russian winter. He was never the
dictator of Europe after Leipsic. He
was never an aggressor save during
the terrific episode of the HJndred
Days.
Another Leipsic, somewhere in
Germany, would seem likely 70 be
the logical end of this struggle: and
it cannot be fought for many months
yet.

ern France, to plunge far back Into
Prussia and help sustain the shock
of the Russian onslaught In that
section. Once more the PARALLEL for
now, az then, It is a Russian menace
that Is to be met.
Napoleon won his most glorious
victory at Austerlitz. But he did
not have to leave the bulk Of his
army behind him. as the Kaiser must
do. while hurrying away for this
coup. The parallel is lost at this
point. The Germans have hammer
ed away on the wide flung turning
movement through Belgium and
northern France, by which they have
sought to achieve the double pur-
pose Of getting to Paris and at tho
same timc crowding out to the
shores of the channel and keeping
away the transport fleets Of Brit
ain.
At the cost of staggering losses,
made necessary by the pressure Of
demand for quick results, the Ger
mans have pushed far toward Paris.
But they have accomplished no
Sedan. Tho French and British
armies are yet in being, stubbornly
fighting and retiring slowly with an
effectiveness that recalls the cam
paigns Of Fabius, or the retreat of
Washington across Jersey. With the
Germans weakening their line Of the
west in order to support it in Prus-
sia, the French are hurrying another
army to the front, and the British
have set abou. to raise half mil
lion of men.
Thus the necessity for yet more
terrific attacks and yet more reck-
less sacrifices by the Germans, along
the route to Paris, is redoJbled. Can
they make these? Will Prussian
blood and iron stand the strain?
If they do not, there has been
reached a stalemate in the French
Belgian campaign. The Kaiser is
fairly caught in the wise. Both
Russia and the western allies are
capable of increasing their forces
faster than can be added to the Ger
man. Thus far the great losses have
been German losses. From Germany
comes already the tale of frightful
misery spreading itself throughout
the empire. From Italy it Is insist
ed that the 100000 splendid troops
of that country are on the point of
grand rush against the Austrian
frontier, which would instantly de-
tach the Austrian army from it's eff
fort to help Germany.
Analysis of the whole military sit
justities the belief that moth
ing decisive has been accomplished
by the western campaign Of the Ger
mans. If now that campaign must |
have its impetus checked in order
to defend the east. the first great |
demand of German strategy will |
have failed.
