YIN CAMPBELL
 SELLING TIRES

Vincent Campbell, who was one of the stellar swatters of the Feds in 1914 and 1915, is taking a rest from baseball this year, and is whiling away the time by working as a tire salesman in Baltimore. Win recently brought suit against the defunct New ark Feds for salary he claims under long term contract. He was offered a job with the St. Louis Browns this year, but turned 1t down. Campbell Is a native of St. Louis, and will be twenty tomorrow. He played with Vanderbilt University as a kid, and broke into the professional ranks in 1907 with Bartlesville, Okla. In 1908 he was with Decatur, H., and the following year pastimed with Aber- deen, in the Northwestern league. He became a Pirate in 1910, and after a couple of seasons was turned over to the Braves. Campbell batted over
 300 with the Indianapolis Feds in 1914 and the Newark Feds last year. He was one of the swiftest men in the big leagues, but his fielding was never very good.

IF THE TRAINS
 STOPPED RUNNING

What would happen in case of general and prolonged railroad strike? Evidently the American people would be up against one of the greatest practical exigencies that a civilized society ever confronted.
 But human ingenuity has marvel lous gifts of meeting such situations, There would be few weeks of chaos But the American people are re- sourceful. They would immediately set themselves to work to devise sub stitute systems of transportation.
 As the pending controversies relate only to freight traffic, it has been said that passenger business would not be much interfered with. But it would be . mistake to keep men busy run ning passenger trains who would be needed in the more vital work of handling freight.
 Half of the passenger traffic could stop without doing any very serious harm. People could take their out ings at home. Suburban dwellers could depend on trolleys and jitneys. Business men could use the tele- phone. As the mail trains would probably be kept running, letters and circulars could serve. The tendency is to give travelling salesmen com pact territory to cover. The greater part of them could make their routes by automobile.
 The stoppage of freight trains would paralyze all industry. Food distri. button today is an amazingly complex machine. The breaking down of the system means famine in a few days. At all hazards public sentiment would demand that the freight business must be maintained.
 The calamity is so great as to be almost unthinkable. Yet 1t may take some such disaster to arouse public sentiment to the need for some system for settling labor disputes.
