LUSITANIA WAS
AN ENEMY SHIP,
SAYS Mr.. CULLOP!

Representative w. A. Cullop of In
diana believes the Americans who lost
their lives in the Lusitania have
themselves to blame.
Let US suppose you are working
in another mans shop and he warns
you against a certain piece of maehin-
cry. and tells you~to keep away from
it. You go and get hurt. Who S to
blame? The loss of American lives on
the Lusiitania is alike.
Germany warned the whole world"
he continued "She warned Ameri-
cans particularly against the Lusita-
MIA and printed advertisemen in
American newspapers. If man walks
up to a lannon's mouth, he is to blame
for the loss of his life .-....
Mr. Cullop agreed with the Germans
that Germany sank the Lusitania as
retaliatory measure for the embargo
en- foodstuffs as well as ordinary con-
traband cons gned to Germany. lis
principal argument. however, was sum-
med up when he declared the Lusita-
MIA was an enemy ship. ,-.... ~

GAMES IN ALL
THREE LEAGUES
IBy Latest MALL

NEW YORK, n. Y.-The efforts be,
ing made in both the major leagues
and the Federal League to speed up
the daily games is already beginning
to show results. Complaints from the
cities represented in all three circuits,
first called the attention of the league
executives to the fans objections 10
long drawn out contests and there was
immediate action on the part of the
baseball authorities.
President Ban Johnson of the Amer
lean League notified the Junior organ
ization club managers that less time
must be consumed in playing games
and that several time-killing practises
must be discontinued. President Gil
more of the Federa!s took a similar
stand and intimated that he might Of
fer prizes in order to shorten the aver
age playing session. In the National
League the matter was also given
careful study and several plans con-
s;dered to improve the conditions.
A study of the playing time figures
OF the three leagues discloses some in
terestng details. Using the April
contests as a basis it is shown that
the average in the American League
for from 10 to IL contests is two
hours five and one-halt minutes The
Federal League clubs under similar
conditions required two hours two and
Gne-quarter minutes to play nine in
nings, while the National League made
the best showing with an average of
one hour 521a minutes.
OF the individual clubs of the Am
erican League the Washington team
led the organization with an average
of enc hour 81 minutes Boston and
New York followed with averages five
and seven minutes slower respective
ly. ST. Louis consumed the most time,
the Browns requiring two hours 1919
with Chicago but one minute
faster The Philadelphia Nationals
were the hustlers of the Tener circuit.
averaging one hour A minutes for 10
games with the New York Giants but
one-half minute slower. Chicago re-
quired two hours 1119 minutes and
Pittsburg also crossed the two-hour
mark In the Federal League the
Pittsburg club showed the best time,
averaging but one hour so minutes
fir Ii games. Buffalo showed the. 9th
er extreme, requiring an average of
two hours q minutes for II games.
