Charles r. Flint. Of New York,
claims that James @. Blaine was
the original league of nations man.
In q recent address before the
Maine Society of New York, Mr..
Flint recalled that as long ago as
1851, eighteen years before the
esta ablishment OF The Hague tri-
bunal, Mr.. Blaine. then Secretary OF
state, initiated movement to
bring about international arbitra-
tion. He wanted America to take
the lead In its establishment. To
that end he invited the nations OF
North and South America to par
ticipate in a general peace con-
ference. Blaine seemed to have q
vision" said Mr.. Flint. "of the
frightfulness of world war and
its calamitous consequences. He
realized that the only relief for
European nations from competitive
preparations for war and the ever
omipous danger OF a terrible con-
hict' would be a world league for
peace"

New York, July 22.-"WelI, he has
gone and done it-all bets are off in

the most experienced Tammany
leaders at the. Fourteenth street

reply.

Ever since the nomination of Cox
they have had nervous chills for fear

For once Tammany. whispering in

ITO what do you ascribe this
antipathy to the President, most of

planation" / asked a great specialist
in psychic values, a man of Freudian
sagacity.

He replied:
The President quite unconsciously
has simply aroused the ancestral
complex of the entire nation. Every
citizen of the United States repre-
sents a sometime cutting of over
seas ties, himself or herself, their
parents. the grandparents of for
bears of generations gone by. These
wrenchings of Old World associa-
tions made imperishable scars. We
all inherit subconscfous emotions
which rule us often without our
knowledge.
When President Wilson broke
precedent, left our soil and went in
person to the Peace Conference
he hurt our dormant national pride.
He drew upon himself the massed

That Is what really finished him

A Possible Senator Who Knows the

II DR.. Paul S. Reinsch wins the
Democratic nomination for United
States Senator from Wisconsin and
If he is elected he will come to the
Senate's debates on foreign affairs
with highly specialized knowledge
of the history of China, Japan and
Korea. British imperial affairs have
been discussed for generations by
a house of lords, including men
with just such specialized knowl-
edge OF the nations with which
Great Britain has had to deal.
Will our house of lords" ever in
ciude men of the same type, drawn
from our veteran diplomats and

gress is to function adequately In
meeting our international problems
whether done in or out of the league
of nations. The State that first de-
liberately selects Senator with
qualifications of this kind will win
enduring fame.

 since the beginning of May.
 And furthermore. the Tanks out fielder bids fair to set other world records before the season closes. Op- posing hurlers have gained so much respect for the slugging ability of the great batsman that once or twice and sometimes more in each game the home run king is given free transportation to first base. The opposing pitchers are given the razz. but it saves home runs. A base on balls record should also be made by the smatsmith. then. And the wonderful slugging feats of Ruth are all the more remarkable on this account.
 The other record likely to be broken is the total base mark for a single season.
 Ruth failed to clout one of his fla vorite four-base wallops during April and the scrbes began to wonder, but the slugger drove out an even dozen in both May and June, adding seven more thus far in July. During ~nile stretch of thirteen games between May 23 and June 2, Ruth hit ten homers, his best performance.
 Ruth punched three circuit drives in one double header, on June and on four occasions hit a couple of home runs in one game.
 The modern home run Goliath began his diamond activities with St. Mary s Industrial School Baltimore. where he

 Dunn signd Ruth up. but in 1914 sold the pitcher to the Boston Red Sox along with Ernie Shore for the sum of s30,000, and not once did the Boston owners regret the investment.
 Ruth was farmed to Providence in 1914, but came back to the Sox in 1915 and stayed with them until sold to New York this year for the sum of s125.Oo0.
 Ruth was one of the main factors in the pennant winning of the Red Sox, due to his effective left handed pitching. However, the twirler all ways managed to clout over the 300 mark, and his hitting ability gained place for him in the Red Sox outfield where he immediately began to star.
 The slugger was sold to the Yankees by Frazee. possibly because it knocked so many balls out of the park.
 George. which is Ruth's first name, is only twenty five years of age, and has his best days yet before him.

RUTH BREAKS WORLDS RECORD, DRIVING OUT
 HIRTLETH HOME RUN

New York, July 1s.-Babe Ruth. the Yankees home run king, and probably the greatest slugger of all times. broke his own last seasons world record here this afternoon when he clouted out his thirtieth circuit drive of the year. smashing the major leagues home run mark by lifting one of Pitcher Kerr s offerings into the right-field bleachers. The New York idol added another for good measure later on in the game, making thirty-one.
 The record-breaking performance oc- cured in the second game of today's double header with the Chicago White Sox. the Tanks dividing the twin bill, losing the second encounter despite Ruths home runs.
 Ruth has taken little more than
 half the season to break his own
 world record of twenty-nine four
 base drives, and bids fair to set
 mark that is nearly double any
 other slugger's record. The mar

JOE WHITE, ALABAMA HEAVY, FIGHTS DICK
 O'BRIEN TO A DRAW

Memphis. Tenn. July ,19.-(Special.) ) After being floored three times in the first round and almost toppled again in the second, Dick OBrien. the elongated heavyweight of Cincinnati, came back and battled his way to a draw with Joe White. the young Tus- caloosa Ala. heavyweight, in eight rounds here tonight.
 Lefts to the jaw put O'Brien down three times and Whites inexperience only prevented him from ending the fight O'Brien got started in the third and from then outboxed White. with the long Ohioan stabbing White in the face repeatedly with lefts. Third, fourth and fifth were even. and O'Brien had the sixth. seventh and eighth. but his blows lacked the necessary steam to overcome the advantage White had in the first two rounds.
