The director announced that it was with great regret that he heard, now and then, a criticism that ''even of late, policemen often fail to behave properly toward the people
 Referring to reports that the ko- -reans had been tortured,s he told the governors that Cit is said the people are apt to think the police and torture are inseparable, the idea of the one being inevitably associated d with that of the other.'' He pointed

Manager-Owner Jawn McGraw Of
the Giants and his associates have
started In on the annual mid-summer
pasttme Of the Gotham team owners
that of buying or trading their way
to a pennant. "1.
Witness the recent deal whereby
the Giants obtained Dave Bancroft
from the Phillies in exchange for Art
Fletcher. A row between Bancroft
and Manager Cravath Of the Quaker
City OUTFIT probably prompted tho
trade.
Bancroft is six years younger than
Arthur. speedy and full of PEP. At
short he ought to strengthen the de-
Tense and ofense of the Giants.
But in connection with Bancroft's
offensive work. there is a popularity.
Dave is a hitter of above the average
strength, q good sacrifice man and a.
speedy nan aield. But, for a man of
his speed, he is a poor base stealer.
He batted .272 in n1nety-three games
last ear and managed to swipe only
eight bags He stole only eleven
sacks the year before in 1875 gamea
Although Bancroft has proved q bet
ter in1elder rec by year his base
stealing has fallen OF each season, as
indicated by the above figures and the
fact that he sneaked fourteen in 1917
and n more the year before that.
Bancroft may get more opportunity
to display his sacrificing ability with
the Giants than he had with the Phfls.
He was lead-of man much of the time
there. McGraw has placed him SEC
ond, the natural suicide job.

Testimony in the recent suit brought
by Magee against the Chicago Cubs
showed clearly two things:
First, the big league moguls are

Second. that they are using a de-
gree of discretion not appreciated
by he erring ball players in show
