REFUSES TO GIVE OUT ANY IN
FoRMATIoN-"NoT READY TO

Governor Cats accompanied by AS
sistant Atty. General Trammell
reached Lakeland this forenoon after
making a tour of investigation in the
phosphate section. An attempt was
made by representative Of the Eve
ming TelegramSto. interview the gov
ernor and get,from his an expression
of his views regarding the strike sit
uation and to get ut first hand either
confirmation OF denial of the rumor
that he was going to remove Sherin
Logan from office. The governor In
his usual polite manner informed our
representative that he was not ready
to talk about the strike situation and
that when he got ready to talk ne
would do so and not before. The
questioned was then asked as TO
whether he contemplated removing
Sheriff Logan and his reply was:-
81 Just said that when | was ready 10
talk that | would do so, didn't |, well
that should be enough for you" AS
the governor was not in commune
cative humor our attempt to get In
formation hot off the griddle was un
successful There was a constant
stream of callers passing to and from
the governors room at the Kiblel
Hotel and the governor is doubtless
gathering much information that he
may or may not use in protesting to
roocb a conclusion as to what action
he will take in the matter.

HARD PROBLEM TO
FIND FOOD IN ITALY
(By Associated Press.l

Rome, Aug. %. Seven hours of
each day of the Italian housekeeper
must be devoted to buying food. The
problems of the ordinary American
housekeeper pale into insignifcancc
even with their troublesome servants
when compared to the Italian. Do
mestic servants strikes in Italy are
chronic:
The recent upheaval in Italian eco
nomics when the government ordered
prices of foodstuffs and clothing re-
duced fifty per cent has begun It's re-
action and the factor affected most is
the housekeeper. She must start to
market at seven o'clock in the morn
ing and Is forced to hurry from one
store to another. To obtain piece OF
meat usually takes two hours. To OBJ"
tain bread about an hour, eggs two
hours. vegetables, one hour and half
and canned goods about an hour.
The housekeepers' day starts by
placing herself at the back Of long
line of waiting customers. The line
sometimes extends for half block
guarded by armed carabineers. When
the buyer is permitted to enter the
store she finds inside scramble for
all sorts Of commodities. Guards are
stationed there to prevent anv mis-
chief. II she obtains what she wants
she Is lucky.
She treads over the streets q whole
morning searching for the things for
lunch and then, In the afternoon must
start on the hunt again for food. II
she Is looking for butter she is usual
disappointed, for there Is little to be
had. She may obtain meat, but 10
usually thankful to go away with a
can Of American "bullytbeef.
II often happens that her family
must miss a meal but that Is usually
overlooked. It is too evident on every
hand.
Housekeepers sometimes watch a
car of produce unloaded at the rail-
road station and follow the motor
trucks to the store where the produce
will be sold. When carload of eggs
arrived the other day women clung to
I the trucks carrying the eggs to stores
while others ran alongside. At the
stores the clerks stood in doorways
and handed out the eggs three only
to a customer. Some customers
reached over others heads with their
hats while others pushed aside the
weaker ones.

London, Aug. 23.-More money
than ever before is now in circulation
in English villages, and its easy ex-
nenditure is apparent even to the
casual passerby. Extra wages earned
hv workmen, housemaids and farm lG-
horers have brought about an aston
ishing social change.
One evidence of this is seen in ne
creat increase in bicycles and motor
cvcles, which has necessitated the es-
tablishment of countless garages ana
repair shops throughout the country :.
nancing and other clubs are spring
ing M everywhere. Whist clubs are
fayorites, and the costliness Of the
nrizes for which the members play
would, a few years ago. have consti-
tinted almost a scandal. The sense Of
we'll being and the demand for more
comfortable life is assigned as the
cause for this last development IL
is taken by sociologists as perma-
uent thing which is more likely to IN
crease than to dinIinish.

Two doubles, a single combined
with some costly erors by the visitors
in the fourth frame gave the locals a
lead that the Growers could not over
come, the Highlanders winning the
game by score of 5 to 8.
Big boy Ery was on the mound for
the locals and. although he was rather
wild during the early part of the
game, he soon settled down, keeping
the hits well scattered and being es-
pecially effective with men on bases.
Drake was on the firing line for the
visitors and was hit quite freely, and
In the fourth inning the locals threat
ened to knock him out of the box but
after this fatal inning held the locals
well In check. The game was not
very exciting. due to some loose play
ing and the usual pep displayed by
both teams was not much In evidence
but something the local fans all en-
joyed was the way our boys landed on
the old pill. In place OF being the
hitless wonders, they loomed up as
the hard hitting Highlanders for
most every local player who came to
bat looked as though he would break
up the game the way they hit the
ball. Smith and Thrasher, our new
infielders. showed up well at bat and
both boys played in splendid style
and no doubt they will prove a
very valuable addition to our club.
Smith. playing second for the locals
did not show up as fast as Cohen, but
makes up when 1t comes to hitting,
and furthermore any player that can
beat Jack for speed and pep will have
to 90 some as he is about the cleanest
and fastest fielder in the League.
Thrasher, playing third, also looks
good to us and is no doubt just the
very man needed at that corner and
| believe that the management has
finally found the man that will be
able to hold down third to T.
Bradentown scored in the f-st in
ming on hit by Benedict, sacrifice,
a wild pitch and passed bail. The
locals came right back and evened up
matters after two men down when
Love scratched an infield hit and stole
second, going to third on wild pitch
and scored when Francis fumbled
Poland's grounder.
The visitors scored another one In
the fourth when Francis singled go
ing TO second on a passed ball, e sac
rifice putting him on third and scor-
ing on Stewards fly to Poland al
though it looked as though Campbell
lad his man at the plate. When the
Highlanders came to bat in their hall
the fireworks started and after the
smoke had cleared away the fans
could see the scorer hang up a big
which certainly looked good te us'
The visitors managed to get one mors
across when Vaughn tripled ana
scored on Campbell's pag to second
This ended the scoring for the day but
the Highlanders threatened nearly
every frant and the visitors, also
made a bold attempt to start some
thing in the last inning but a fas'
double play spoiled their chances,
