New York, June 20.-J. w. Morris
president of the Texas league, and J.
w. Bell, of the Western association, in
statements to the United Press today
expressed the belief that but few minor
leagues will open their parks next year
if the war continues.
Morris is worried over the eontinua

''If the war is not over before anoth-
er year, l feel sure that very few minor
leagues will attempt to start another
season. In fact, from information |
have at this time, feel sure that few
minor leagues are going to get through
the present season.
Bell was just as certain the war
will force a retrenchment next year, but
did not attempt to analyze conditions
for the present, except in his own terri
tory.
"Of course, - he said, "I am not in
position to speak Of the situation over
the country in general, but it is very
apparent from the trouble several minor
leagues are having that interest in base

as it has been.

Miss stinson was a guest at a din

last night, given by members of the
Womsn's Ambulance Corps, and spent
the night with Mrs. E. R. Lake, q
close friend Of hers, at 2023 Park
road.
Rests In Morning.
She spent most of the morning rest
ing, and shortly before noon visited
Red Cross War Council headquarters,
where she was presented to Chairman
H P. Dawson
Because Of necessity for her to
reach Chicago as early as possible in
order to test out the new plane,
reservations had been made for Miss
StinEon on a train leaving for Chicago
at 7;So last night, but because OF her
delay In arriving here she missed the
train.
She then wanted to take a mid
night train. but members of the Am
bulance Corps insisted that she re-
main over today and rest a bit.
A the Sun Went Down.
Miss Stinson arrived over Washing
ton yesterday afternoon just as the
sun had disappeared over the horizon,
and because of the rapidly increasing
darkness was compelled to cut short
an extensive program OF flying over
the city.
She had been scheduled to reach
Washington at $3.50 o'clock, but be-
cause OF motor trouble was delayed
two hours in Philadelphia, her only
stop between New York and Wash
ington. A large crowd was gathered
on the polo field in Potomac Park to
welcome her, and despite the long
wait, because OF the delay, fully 500
people were there to greet her when
she glided gracefully down from the
clouds and landed on the green as
lightly as q bird.
The big battle plane and the tiny
aviatrice were hemmed in by the
crowd almost before the machine
came to a halt, and her first act
on arising from her seat was to scat
ter a handful of Red Cross literature
through the crowd-the last of a
large supply with which she started
from Buffalo.
She Does Her Bit.
'T wanted to do my Bit" she said,
smilingly, as she shook hands with
Henry B. F. Mcfarland, chairman OF
the Red Cross finance committee, and
Mrs. J. Borden Hartman Of the Red
Cross ambulance corps. 81 do hope
have stirred up interest in the Red
Cross by flying for it."
You most certainly have,7 said
Mr.. Macfarland, and he congratulated
her on her successful flight Mr.. Mac
farland then handed Miss Stinson a
check for 50.0o0-the FIRST $4,000 Of
Washington's quota OF the 500, ,000, 900
Red Cross war fund-for her to pre-
sent to Secretary McAdoo together
with the check she had brought from
Buffalo.
Miss Stinson, in an auto driven by
Mrs. Patton, captain in the Women's
Ambulance Corps, and cheered by
hundreds, started in a motor process
sion to find Secretary McAdoo.

been received that the Secretary had
