No Game Tomorrow.

A double header with the Burling-
ton Red Sox Sunday with no game to-
morrow, is the arrangement that has
been made for the last home series
of the year. Poor attendance at the
week day games is the reason. Every
body who has any interest whatever
in baseball should make it a point to
attend these last two games. The
attendance during the games just
played here has been too small to
make up the $50 guarantee that must
be paid each day to visiting teams. A
record breaking crowd Sunday would
60 a long way toward making UP for
this and would be a fitting way to
end the season.

coast and from the gulf to the great

and eloquent manner on this subject.

Last, but not least, Secretary Fred
H. Overton has wired his brother. in

Goodyear Priced
1t is Folly Today to Pay More

There exists now anew, compelling rea-
son for buying Goodyear tires. It results
from war conditions.
These leading tires-built Of extra-fne
rubber, in the same way as always-are
selling today at June prices.
You will find today q very wide differ
ence between most tire prices and Good
years.
Due to Quick Action
Early in August-when war began-thc
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to
us. Rubber prices doubled almost over
night.
Men could see no way to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like
others-in that panic-were forced to
higher prices. But we lave snce gone back
to prices we charged before the war, and
this is how we did it:
We had men in London and Singapore
when the war broke out. The larger part
of the world s rubber supply comes through
there. We cabled them to buy up the pick
of the rubber. They bought-bcfore the adj
vance, SOC, 600 pounds of the finest rub
Der there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to us.

Tires at
Before-War Prices

And it means practically all of the extra.
grade rubber o%btainable abroad.
Today we have our own men in Colon
DO, Singapore and Para. Those are tho
worlds chief sources of rubber. So we arc
pretty well assured Of a constant supply.
and our pick of the best that's produced.
We were first on the ground. We were
quickest in action. AS a result, we shall
soon have in storage an almost record SUP.
ply Of this extra grade Of rubber.
And we paid about June prices.
Now Inferior Grades Cost Double
About the only crude rubber available
now for many makers is. inferior. In ordin-
airy times, the best tire makers refuse it.
Much Of it had been rejected. But that
"off rubber" now sells for much more than
we paid for the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance
of Goodyea1s. And many tire makers, short
Of supplies, will be forced to use second
grade rubber.
Be Careful Now
In Goodyears we pledge you the same
grade tire as always. And that grade won
for Goodyears the top place in Tiredom-
the largest sale in the world.
And, for the time being, our prices are
the same al before the war. We shall try
to keep them there.
We accept no excessive orders, but deal
ers will be kept supplied. And we charge
them, until further notice, only ante-bel-
,lum prices.
That means that Goodyears-the best
tires built-are selling way below other
tires.

of House Relieved.

National prohibition will he forced
as one of the big issues, according to
information today at headquarters of
the National nti-Saloon League.
Candidates for the next Congress will
be asked TO declare squarely for and
against the Hobson national prohibi-
ton amendment to the Constitution.
This announcement gave some relief
to worried House members today.
They will not be asked to vote upon
the HObson amendment at the pres
ent session. Democratic Leader I'm
derwood is openly against the Hob
son plan. a battle which he made and
won in his fight in Alabama for cleo
tion to the Senate against Hobson.
Underwood insists there are enough
votes in the present House to defeat
submission of the Hobson amendment
to the States.

the Episcopal Cathedral at Mt. st.
Alban The identity of the philan-
thropist was revealed by Bishop Hard
ing last night at the close of the con-
vention OF the Episcopal diocese of

The gift was the object of much dis
cussion and the names of many mil

in recent months, had been mentioned
as probable givers.
Most of the s5O0OO0 will be used in the
construction of the chancel of the ca
thedral. The cathedral stands on the
highest point in the District, and the
roof of the chancel will be as high
above sea level as the top of the Wash
ington Monument
The convention was held at S- Mar
garet's Episcopal Church, and the final
session last night was largely taken up
with the election of the committees and

CAUCUS TO HURRY
ANTITRUST BILLS
Democrats to Meet Tuesday to
Expedite Administrations
Program.

House Democrats will caucus next
Tuesday night on the antitrust pro-
gram. the object of the party council
being to line up all Democrats behind
a plan for early action on the trust
bills. The caucus is not expected to ap-
prove the bills themselves but Majority
Leader Underwood, after a talk wit h
the President. is anxious to have an
agreement among majority members
that the regulation Of the trusts will
be expedited.
1t is believed the prohibition issue will
bob UP at the party caucus although
Mr.. Underwood says the caucus is not
called TO consider the HobsOn resolution
recently reported from the Judiciary
Committee. If the Rules Committee
does not express its willingness to report
out rule for the early consideration
OF the Hobson resolution, a prohibition
ist member is practically certain to
force the matter upon the Democratic
caucus.
1t is understood that Mr. Underwood
is not averse to an early vote on the
Hcbson resolution for nationwide ban
on the sale OF liquor. House leaders
generally realize that a vote must come
sooner or later and as two-thirds ma
Jority must be had to adopt the resoIu-
tion and submit the constitutional
amendment to the States, there is a
disposition 10 let the matter come up
