WHAT OF FABER?
If He Goes to War SOx VIII Be
in a Hole.
Rowland May Have To Worry
About Pitching Staff.
BY JACK vEIOCK.

New York, March 13.-Clarence
Rowland is liable to find a rather
pesky pitching problem staring him
in the face before the White Sox
swing into the stretch in the coming
American League race.
AS the SoX finished the season OF
1917 in a blaze of glory, they did not
look like a club that would need to
make any additions in the way or
playing talent for 1918. But this has
been a tough winter-and the 1918
season is something else again.
The news that Red Faber had been
placed in Glass 1 of~the army draft
was a blow to the supporters OF the
Sox. Take Faber away from Row
lands pitching staff and the Sox man
for filling Faber's shoes is no easy
job. However. Faber will not be
drafted at once.
Must Find Talent.
Should Faber be called, one of the
second string SoX pitchers will have
to come thru or Rowland is going to
be short first string pitcher.
And just as uncertain as Faber's
ability to play ball this summer is the
chance that Eddie Cicette will pitch
the same sensational brand of bali
that did so much toward clinching the
old rag for the Sox in 1917
Another blow to the SoX pitching
staff is the condition of Reb Russell.
The erstwhile sterling southpaw has
been having trouble with his arm for
two years. Before every game he
pitched last season the arm had to be
massaged and doped up with lini-
ment. The trouble with Russell is
that his pitching wing has developed
an unnatural growth and there are
times when he cannot bend it. So,
counting on Russell will not be wise
for the SoX.
Prospects Could Be Brighter.
Williams, Wolfgang, Benz and Dan
forth remain, and Williams and Benz
will be largely depended on to take
their regular turns in the box.
Sox prospects could be much bright
err than they are. And it is evident
that Rowland realizes this, for while
he was in the East recently attending
the schedule meeting he was after
pitchers. He went home disappointed.
First string pitchers are hard to get.
That's why the loss of Faber or a re-
versal by Cicotte would be so tough
on the worlds champs.

Willard Fulton Gabfest in Kan

Chicago, March 13.-Altho Fred
Fulton and his manager are headed
for ?. Willard gabfest in Kansas City
today they are considering offers for
another Jabfest in the near future.
The slamming given the mighty

one Chicago promoter with a spare
$4,000 to offer that amount for a
match with Jack Dempsey, the bout
to be staged at one of the military
camps near Chicago before July 4.
1t is believed here Jess Willard will
argue that Dempsey should have a
first shot at Fulton. Chicago fans
lean 10 that belief all the more since
the staging of such a match nearby
would give the city its first big bout
in years. Dempsey and his manager

LAUNDRYMEN HERE THURSDAY
All Parts of Kansas to Be Represented
in Convention Here.

Washermen from all parts of Kan
sas will be in Topeka tomorrow to at
tend the annual meeting of the Kansas
State Laundry Owners association.
The feature of the convention will be
the hearing before the state Industrial
welfare com mission tomorrow after
noon when the laundrymen expect to
put up a stiff fight to prevent the
commission from putting a minimum
wage of $3.50 on the labor of laundry
girls.
The welfare commission is prepared
to set forth reasons why the wage
scale in laundries should be not less
than $3.50 per week for apprentices
and $3.50 per week for laundry girls
with six months experience. The
laundrymen state that they are pre-
pared to show cause why the wages
named are impractical
Another nice little bomb the wei
fare commission is preparing to throw
into the ranks of the laundrymen is
the announcement that the 9-hour
served. This means that hours after
a girl goes to work she must quit
nor will the employer be allowed to
retain her after that period by paying
for her overtime. The laundry owners
state that this law is unjust as it does
not take into consideration the exis-
te1ce of emergencies caused by acct
dents and breakdowns.
Other things that come before the
convention of Iaundrymen will be a
discussion of the fuel situation; the
improvements in the laundry appa-
ratus, methods of cooperation, and a
dozen other things of interes: to laun-
dry owners. The convention will close
tomorrow night

shifting Industry to Extreme East Is
Robbing Midwest

Washington, March 13.@Re-distri-
button of skilled labor will be the
greatest problem the United States
must face during reconstruction fol-
lowing the war. Representative Meek
er, Missouri, told the house today.
He attacked the mobilization OF
skilled labor at seaboard for work in
munitions plants.
"Of course, it is necessary to mo-
Billie them for shipbuilding," he said,
but it is unnecessary and absurd to
send them to the seaboards to work in
munitions plants and supply factories.
I'VE are now unwisely and idiotical
~ killing off the middle west for the
benefit of the coast. We are laying
the groundwork for a catastrophe.
The effect of the move will soon be
felt in the Mississippi valley. The
only way we can head off an indus
trial calamity in that part of the
country is to have our war work done
there.
Everything besides ships that we
need to win the war can be made in
the middle west and must be made
there. unless we want to face the dan
ger of shifting our population to the
