McGraw Charges "Throw-Down -

Two of the most interesting races in the his
tory of major league baseball have been run and
won, by Boston in the American League, and
Brooklyn In the National League The triumph
of Boston is without the taint of collusion or
fraud. 1t was clean-cut fairly victory.
The triumph of Brooklyn has been smeared with
the charge of crooked play
This charge was made by no less a person
than John McGraw. He asserted that two of
the Giants threw him down" by deliberately
making plays which caused the New York team to
lose the game to Brooklyn McGraw made the
charge in words that clearly indicated the heat
OF anger. In fact, he was so angry that he left
the ball park and was absent from his evening
haunts for the rest of the night
He ragged and tore in true McGraw fashion
and the accounts Of his actions seem to betray
that he overdid the scene little. There was no
reason for real anger on MeGraws part His
team could not have won the pennant. But there
seems to have been real purpose for pretend
ing anger.
Before the series between Brooklyn and New
York opened there was talk in all big league
cities of the probabilities of the Giants laying
down" to Brooklyn so that the latter team could
cinch the pennant. 1t pointed out that the
Giants, easily one of the best teams in either of
the leagues, could put the Brooklyns out of the
race if they played honestly.
McGraw and his team went into the series
under the cloud of suspicion The expected hap
pened. The Giants lost and Brooklyn won the
pennant Naturally, the cry that McGraw could
expect was ~ told you So" Therefore, it seems
easy to understand why McGraw should fly into
a rage, declare that two of his players had
thrown him down" and quit the park By such
actions, he to have eliminated suspicion that
he was implicated in the loss of the game to
Brooklyn.
McGraw's charges probably will not be taken
seriously by the majority of baseball patrons.
Both of the men he accused have emphatically
denied the charges and apparently the baseball
writers, who witnessed the game, retain faith in
the integrity of these men, McGraw should not
be allowed to drop the case. He should be
called upon by the league executives to prove
his charges to admit that they are unfounded.
If two Of the Giants did clay down" they should
be barred from professional baseball. If they did
not they should be cleared of the stigma of dis
honesty. In either case, baseball the great
American sport because it always has been re-
garded as clean sport, would benefit

Armenian Relief Day.

Two days. October and p, lave been set
aside by a special proclamation of President
Wilson, signed August 81, which the Amer
lean people are desired to turn their thoughts
for a brief moment to a consideration of the
hardships and privations Of two downtrodden
races-the Armenians and the Syrians local
committee, headed by Henry B. F. Macfarland,
former president of the Board of District Com
missioners, has taken charge of the work of max
ing Armenian Relief Day a success in the Capital
of the nation, and this committee, composed of
prominent local men, now is appealing to all
Washingtonians to play the role of the Good
Samaritan for the benefit of the peoples who
today are suffering and dying by thousands for
lack of the barest necessities of life.
The news dispatches have brought tales of
atrocities committed upon the Armenians in the
name OF military necessity. The American people
just now are not asked to concern themselves
with the particular justice or injustice of these
military measures; they merely are asked to help
now that thousands upon thousands of their
fellowmen are suffering result of those
military practices.
The war reports have brought story of how
Turkish military decree ordered the governors
of the Armenian and Syrian cities to dispose of
the natives of their towns by moving them to
distant places. The governors, it is alleged, un-
derstood what was written between the lines of
those orders and they did march the natives. not
to any destination where they could find rest but
continuously, day in and day out, until hundreds,
even thousands of them dropped in their tracks.
This was the means employed to settle the
Armenian and Syrian problem, we are told
The Armenans and Syrians naturally arc

dotted with olive groves, tilling the soil and
spinning and weaving in the SUM- The war has
exiled many of them, has separated relatives and

The magnitude of our continental obligations
in the present war has compelled us to adopt
the continental system of compulsory service, but
do not let US forget what the voluntary spirit of
our people has already done. The Kings mes
sage states that since the war began no fewer
than 5,o41oo men have been raised by voluntary
enlistment. That astounding figure includes, of
course, the enlistments for the navy, which still
remain voluntary The actual distribution between
the two services has not yet been published, but
it may be assumed that more than four-hfths are
for the army. During the last four or FIVE
months it is necessary to note that an indirect
form of compulsion has been operative, and
probably many men enlisted in this period solely
because they knew that they would be compelled
if they waited longer. But when all allowance
has been made on this account we still en-
titled to claim that at least 100000 men have
voluntarily joined either the navy or the army
to risk their lives in the service of their country.
That is, the Kings message says record
never approached by any other nation; it is a
record of which this nation will have reason to
be proud for observation-disclosures Graphic,

Addressing the Bankers Convention, Frank
A. Vanderlip president of the National City
Bank, said: I'VE all frankly understand why
practically no bank has voluntarily subjected it
self to the action of the Federal reserve law.
1t Is no secret why State banks decline to be-
come members of the Federal reserve system.
They are aPprehensive of the sort of regulation
which has recently been imposed upon national
banks. They are not desrous of subjecting them
selves to the sort of autocratic supervision under
which the whole national banking system has
grown restive. Had I chosen to discuss the
Feleral reserve act, I would have reached con-
clusion that it embodies sound, fundamental
principles too valuable, indeed, to our financial
life to be abandoned; the free working of which.
however, has been entangled and hampered in its
inception by political considerations and admin
istrative attitude to such an extent as to en-
danger the success of what should rightly be the
most important step ever taken in American
banking" In this indictment of Secretary Nc
Adoo and Comptroller Williams, Mr. Vanderlip
expresses the views of large number of bank
ers in this country, including perhaps, number
