HARVEST
Hands Badly Needed All Over
The Country

Washington, June 12-According TO
Secretary of Labor Wilson, there will
soon be more Jobs than men in the
United States His prophecy is based
on the bumper wheat crop, revival Of
the iron trade with the consequent
stimulation of mining and other as
sociated industries and continued ac.
tivity in the textile business.
Secretary Wilson states that speci-
fic requests for more than $4,000 men
to help harvest the big wheat crop
have already reached the department
of labor. Missouri alone asked for
10000 men.
Secretary Wilson is planning to ne
goiate with the railroads to arrange
special excursions to the wheat belt
from eastern cities where labor might
be obtained
Such plan would give thousands
of men in the east chance to get
rural vacation and make money
while taking it." said Secretary Will
son.
The western farmers are offering
from So to $3.50 day and board for
harvest help. The unemployment
today is caused chiefly by the depres-
sion of the iron and steel industry,
resulting from failure of the rail-
roads, which take 81 per cent of the
steel products of the country, to place
orders, Wilson believes. Up to two
months ago mining was in flourish
ing condition and it is bound to i'm
prove when the big steel mills soon
resume in full
Exulting in the promise of a
bumper crop production for Kansas,
Representative Taggart of that state
today during an optimistic business
speech in the house declared, There
is nothing the matter with Kansas.
She is all right. Wherever you see
the thousands in your earstern cities
standing before the score boards it
is Johnson Of Kansas pitching, and
wherever you see the masses grab
bing for the newspapers it is Fred
Funston of Kansas lighting"
Most always when you come into
the house you hear Taggart of Kansas
talking" interrupted Representative
Mann of Illinois.
And Mr.. Mann being troublesome, -
retorted Taggart.

tween Two Senators Amended
Measure Now Goes to the House.
Washington, June 1.-THE amend
I'd bill repeating the tolls exemption
flause affecting coastwise shipping of
he United States in the Panama ca
nal act passed the senate by a vote
of SO to 80. Eleven Democrats voted
against the repeal, but this loss was
more than offset by thirteen RepuDli-
cans who supported the president.
One Democrat, Senator Walsh, was
paired against the bill, and two Re
and Stephenson of Wisconsin, wers
paired in favor of the bill.
The following senators voted against
the bill: Ashurst, Chamberlain, Lane,

Total noes, 35. Burton and Pomerene
Of Ohio both voted for the bill
The measure now goes back to the
house, which is expected to accept the
Simmons-Norris amendment, specific
ally reserving all rights the United
States may have had under the Hay
Pauncefote treaty.
The closing hours of the debate
were signaliZed by a near encounter
between Senators Vardaman of Mis-
sissippi and West of Georgia and also
by sharp personal conoquy between
Vardaman and his colleague, Senator
John Sharp Williams.
The trouble arose while Senator
West was replying to Vardaman. The
Mississippi senator, who has opposed
the repeal of the tolls exemption law,
had Just concluded speech in which
he bitterly arraigned senators who
have followed the president for repeal
and had changed the views expressed
by them when the tolls exemption bill
was originally passed.
Near Encounter.
"The edict has gone forth from the
White House" said Mr. Vardaman,
and he added that this alone had
saved the cause Of repeal. Among
other things vardaman attacked the
transcontinental railways and the Car
negie peace foundation for spending
money to bring about repeal.
Replying to this particular charge.
West who was standing near Mr.
Vardaman's seat as he spoke. said

WHITE WELL NIGH
THE WHOLE SHOW
East Side Pitcher Fans Sixteen,
Allows Three Hits and Se-
cures Three.
BARRINGER is SHUT OUT

Barringer High Schools Newark
High School Athletic Association
baseball pennant ASPIRATIONS were
temporarily, at least, knocked into a
cooked hat at City Athletic Field yes
terday afternoon, when, for the sec
ono time this season, East Side High
school took its measure by a score of
to 0.
Davy White, the East Side pitcher,
was In fettle which, in itself, would
have been enough to beat the Barrin-
gerites, who were, up to yesterdays
White apportioned three hits to the
Barringer batsmen. He struck out
sixteen, incidentally, and. besides,
used his war club for an aggregate of
three hits, one of which was a home
run.
His homer was not his only score,
Tor, in addition, he crossed the pan
twice, and drove In Bauer, who pre-
eeded him in the batting order, three
times, for tallies. All of which made
six runs for which White was more
or less responsible. Bauer, the East
Side captain, captured the hitting
honors of the day. He connected on
four occasions and logged across the
rubber like number of times.
Barringer offered three pitchers to
the slaughter. Pueblo, who relieved
Pope and twirled the last two innings,
was the most effective of the trio,
letting down the heavy hitting East
Siders with one bingle and no runs
during his period of occupation.
Murph' Cohen, who started in the
box for Barringer, looked to be In line
for a repetition of the victory over
lzfz Ill 40 InaR
High School team, which he held to
two scratch hits last week. But the
awakening soon came when he was
taken out in the third inning, after
East Side, aided by Whites circuit
clout, had scored three runs, and ap-
peared to be in line for as many more
in that session, before the storm SUBJ
sided.
Pope succeeded the battered Cohen
and retired the side. He was equally
successful in the fourth inning, but
in the fifth, White and company
gathered two more counts. Pope rail-
lied in the sixth and kept the East
Side score column blank again, but
in the eighth, he was pounced upon
for two more runs, and gave way to
Pueblo.
Andy Dempsey was the lone Bar
ringer batter that was at all consis-
tent in getting on the bases. His
debut at the bat resulted in his reach
ing first on fielder's choice He
travelled clear to third on some daring
stealing, but his teammates left him
there, high and dry. In the fourth
inning an error gave Dempsey the
base and again he advanced to third
by the larceny route, and again he
was marooned there. A strike-out
came between this and Dempsey's
final effort, which was a slashing
two-bagger to right field. However,
his pelfer to third awaited him nought,
as White found his successors at the
bat easy prey. GARDENER, batting for
Hagopian in the ninth, and Steadman
were the other hitters in the Barrin-
ger lineup, each getting lone bingle.
The score:

DETROIT'S LEAD SHRINKING;
DEFEAT MEANS SECOND PEG

Boston Braves to their win, his error
enabling Stallings's crowd to push
over two runs.
Catcher Roger, of the Yankees,
handed the White Sox yesterdays af-
fair. He dropped throw from the
outfield, permitting Weaver to count
with the lone tally.
The Detroit Tigers and Nationals
will today fight for first place in the
American League. The Tigers will
lost the lead If they are defeated
today.
Jack Dalton swatted out a homer
yesterday, yet the Dodgers were beat
en- at Pittsburgh in spite of Dalton's
illustrious effort.
Walter Johnson plugged Kava-
nagh's hitting streak. Marty did not
get a hit in three tries at Washing
ton.
The Maps had pep. With only five
bingles they sacrificed at the proper
times and won from the Red Sox.
Charlie Herzog used up couple of
teams against the Phillies, but still
the Reds couldn't win.
