Dear Miss Grey: Do you be-
lieve In good and bad luck?
l claim that some persons are
naturally more lucky than
others. UNLUCKY.
1t would not be possible to es-
tablish any such proof. Luck is
a habit of the mind. Whoever
thinks himself unlucky Is liable
to be unfortunate. To believe in
luck, good or bad, is merely to
shirk ones responsibility for ones
own conduct. Nevertheless, per-
sons who would hate to be con-
sidered superstitious talk of their
luck.
But 1t must be noted that they
always regard their successes as
the just reward of their own merit,
while their failures they attribute
to "hard luck"

Will Thew?

Even under the peace-time income tax law
Uncle Sam was swindled by taX-dodgers out OF
$320000000 year. The Times and its sister
papers more than year ago made this charge,
and substantiated it,
Officials and utra-rich men hooted and scott
ed and denied. Today the fact is officially ad-
mitted. Senator Lewis speaking Wednesday in
the United States senate said:
'In the treasury department there proofs
of a $320,000,0O0 swindle perpetrated on this
government thru perjury, fraud and deception
and different forms of individual and CONNER
cial trickery by tax dodgers"
He significantly added:
eff the government does not conscript wealth,
the people will rise and with raised hands seize
the great corporations, together with the great
oil and coal resources of the country"
That, too, is true, just as The Times has been
arguing all these months Will our officials have
vision to see it, and to act? Will the Of
great wealth and great influence show the
patriotism and good sense to cease their opposi-
ton to what should come and what must come
transcription of swollen incomes to help con-
scription of manhood win this war?

ers," is the way Miller Higgins ex.
plains his position in the baseball
world.
Higgins has returned from st.
Louis to his home here. His three.
year contract as manager Of the
Cardinals has ended. and, owing to
constant friction between himself and
Branch Hickey, the new president OF
the st. Louis club, II is very unlikely
that he will lead the Cardinals next
season.
From New York comes q rumor
that Higgins will succeed Bill Dono-
van at the head OF the Yankees, but
Higgins declines to talk about that.
1t is known that the Cardinals chief
tain conferred with Colonel Rupert,
the Yankees owner. when the base
ball draft session was held here last
month. At that time his name was
connected with the Yankees, but he
denied the truth OF the story.

PITTSBURGH CLUBS SEEK
new AA U. ASSOCIATION

Athletic clubs In Pittsburgh and
surrounding territory have applied
for a new district association of the
A. A. o., to be known as the Al
leghsny Mountain Association, with
headquarters at Pittsburgh.
The board of governors OF the A.
A. U. have approved the formation OF
this new association which has re-
Quested to have included as its ter
ritory all Of the state Of West Vir-
ginia, the State OF Pennsylvania,
west of Altoona, Pa, and Belmont,
Columbia, and Jefferson counties of
the State OF Ohio, and President Tur-
ner has Issued . call for . meeting
of all of the clubs in that territory,
thirty-seysn In number, to take place
at the Colonial Annex Hotel. Pitts
burgh, on Thursday evening, Novem-
Der Is, for the purpose OF organising
and adopting the constitution and by
laws prescribed by the A. A. U.
therefor.
In discussing the formation Of this
new association yesterday, President
Turner said that he felt confident
the Allegheny Mountain Association
OF the A. n u. would eventually de-
NcIOp into one OF Ino largest ana
most active associations Of the
Union. Pittsburgh Is . great athletic
center, and they have some fine ath-
letic material there, and with their
own association championships as an
incentive, many future national
champions are sure to be developed.
John T. Taylor, who has been A A.
u. Commissioner OF that district for
several years deserves great credit
for the indefatiEable manner in
which he has worked TO arouse in
terest In amateur athletics In that
section, and this new association Is
the result OF his untiring work.
In 1911 the Pittsburgh Press con-
Quoted the national track and field
at Forbes Field be-
fore an audience of 10000 people. and
they proved so successful the national
body awarded the 1912 national
to Pittsburgh, and
they again proves q great success.
Swimming, boxing, and track and
field are the leading amateur sports
In Pittsburgh.
