Tigers Gain Half Game y
When Red Sox Triumph

Detroit gained q half gamt In
the sixzling struggle now In
progress for the American League
hon0rs, which entities the winner
to the privilege Of competing In
the world series next month.
While the Red Sox and White
Sox have been breaking even in
the two games thus far played in
their series, the Tigers have
gained one game by taking two
from the Athletics. Now Jennings
and Cobb hold a one-Game lead
over the Red SOx and a one and
One-half game advantage over
the White Sox.
There were no games scheduled
in the National League and the
standing remains unchanged with
the Dodgers leading the PhillieS
by a game and a half and topping
the Braves by three games.

Speaker Increases Lead
for A. L. Batting Honors

iris Speaker increased his lead
over Ty Cobb by three points in
Sundays play by making three
hits in rs many times MP, while
Cobb was getting one hit In two
attempts, which did not change
his average. The Cleveland star
is eighteen points ahead Of the
Georgian. He has 1913 hits to his
credit and bids fair to make more
than 200 safe hits before the sea-
son closes, early next month. Joe

against the recognition In Mexico OF
any leader of faction unless abso-
lutte assurance is guaranteed of relig-
ious liberty and complete cessation
OF further persecution of Catholics
or spoilation of church property and
institutions"
Mr.. Matre's comment on the out
come of these efforts is: Despite
these dignifed protests the arch per
secutor of the Church In Mexico re-
ceived recognition and the voice of
the 100000 Catholics was like one
crying in the wilderness"
In concluding this phase of his re-
port the Secretary writes:
"To this promise of religious freedom
the editor of America, Chairman of the
Federation's Special Committee on
Mexican affairs. said, in answering the
letter Of Mr.. nnmulty twho rose in de-
Tense Of the Administration Mexican
policy This promise of Carranza be-
comes a tactical mistake in view of The
fact that the spoliation Of converts and
churches and the persecution of priests
and sisters have been merrily going on
Not since the French Revolution has the
world witnessed such an orgy Of muir
der. lust and general defiance of rights
human and divine
'To those Catholics who have come tc
the ielly-fsh state Of mind thai forlids
them TO say a word in protest against
the outrages committed in Mexico, LET
them serve notice on our enemies in tins
country that they may not do the like
10 us"
At the opening session of the German
societies, Mr. korz said in his report;
"The American citizenship of Ger
man descent has done relatively
more for the development uf on
country than the Aaglo Saxon, and
never yet did German influence endangei
the continuance of our Union. For this
reason we cannot reconcile the attitud,
of our national Government in dealing

10 will be recalled what storm Mr..
Lloyd George brought down upon his
own head by asserting that the in
dustrial output of the country, par
ticularly in regard to war material,
was ieopardized by the drinking hab-
IFS OF the workers. Mr.. Nee advances
some new facts in regard TO this
/ point.
we shall never know how much OF
the shortage Of shells was due 10
drink, but It was more than any of
us would like 10 know. General Won
Donop inquired and found that the
grave statements OF the Shlpbuilders
Federation applied equally to works
turning out shells. fuses. guns. II
was clear that something was iragi-
cally wrong with munitions as well
as with transports; an enemy was
sowing tares among the wheat The
Admiralty appointed a Director OF
/ Transports We all remember how
Mr.. Churchill announced his discov-
/ cry in Parliament. The papers were
/ full of Graeme Thompson, Mr.
Thompson looked into the matter and
found out what was wrong. and al
most the first thing he told the Ad-
miralty was that IL was necessary for
the efficiency of the army and navy
/ to withdraw all drink licenses
/ throughout the kingdom.
1T was with all these things in
mind that Lloyd George at last ap-
3 preached this SUBJECT He faced the
facts and told the nation the bitter
truth-that we were lighting two enc
mics, Germany ana Drink. and that
Drink was worse than Germany"
Mr.. Mees conclusion is that the
4 government should introduce proht
bition. In some quarters be is bein'
