ONE BILLION DOLLARS

As Uncle Sam is the g%uaranter of
the dividends given the stockholders,
he ais wants to supervise all expen-
ditures.
For that reason McAdoo has named
various committees. One is headed
by c. r. Gray, director of transporta-
ton. IT is his job, among others, to
figure the amount Of equipment the
roads will need.

and purchases under McAdoo. He in
turn has under him a central advisory
purchasing committee of big railroad
men, and they in turn have under
them regional committees which SUI
perintend purchases for their sections
OF the United States.
After Gray's committee decides the
number OF cars: engines, etc. need
ed, Williams and his committees go
into the market and secure them at
the lowest and nest prices.
Cnder competition and private own
ership there have been all kinds of
sizes, weights and shapes Of cars and
engines, as each road demanded its
own specifications. This struck Nc

of Ed. Barrow will have a great deal
to do with the clubs success. Barrow
has been very successful at times in
the past. but leading a pennant WIN
ming major league club and a minor
league aggregation are two different
things. And Barrow has some Of the
biggest problems in baseball to work
out this year.
He has two great first basemen.
| Hoblitzel and McInnis. Barrow does
not need two first basement, so McIn-
mis-. the most versatile Of the two,
must be shifted. 1t is Barrow's inten-
ton to shift him to third. McInnis'
success as a third baseman is prob
lematical. Mack tried to play Nc
1nnis at second with very poo sue
cess. Perhaps McInnis can play third
successfully, out it is doubtful.
At second the veteran Johnny Eyers
will be started. Evers is about
through as a big Lacquer. His throw
ing arm is almost gone and for two
years he has been the victim of long
period illnesses during the playing
season. Evers will furnish spirit and
! pep for the team. but it is doubtful
whether he car stand the strain of a
gruelling season. At short Barrow is
strongly fortified with Everett Scott,
n of the best fielding shortstops, in
the American league. ~
In that infield is the whole question
of the Red Sox uccess or failure and
the outlook is not at all brilliant. :
