 Silva was loaned to Shreveport at the beginning of the 1920 season by Moles- worth. Doc will be back with the Barons next season; that is practically certain. and he should make a good man for Bir- mingham in 1921.
 The Texas League. where Silva is now playing, is only one rating below the Southern, and if Silva can hit around .SSS in the Texas this season he should be able to make 300 with the Barons next year. It is certain that Molesworth will ! keep his eye on the progress of the young outfielder, and will pluck the fruit at the proper time to reap the most advantage.

Washington, June 4.-(Special )--If President Wilson doesn't very soon de- eide who is boss respecting the rounding up, treatment and deportation of allen enemies, reds, anarchists and bomb throwers, there is certain to be trouble between Attorney General A Mitchell Palmer and Assistant Secretary of La Dor Louis F. Post.
 It was recorded in this correspondence some weeks ago, that the two G>pari. ments, that of justice and that of labor. had made an appeal to the President. Since that time the President has said nothing-as far as the public knows-bui hair in the struggle between the two "belligerents" continues to fly.
 It all began when MT. Palmer, in an effort to rid the country of that class Of individuals, which dwells much on revo- lution against the existing form of gov- ernment, moved all the agencies under his Jurisdiction against the agitators, those acting in open, and those acting in hidden places. As result of his ef' fort, several thousand men and women were rounded up, and, judged by the de- partment of justice, worthy of deporta- tion. With such recommendation, they were passed on to the department of la bor, of which MT. Post is apparently the moving genius. In comparative sense, very, very few of those whom Mir Palmer had arrested, were deported on orders Of MT. Post.
 WIDESPREAD CRITICISM
 This fact caused widespread criticism of MT. Post, his enemies stating that he was moved through a deep sympathy with the radicals who would destroy the goV- ernment. Congress proceeded to investi- gate, and Congress- criticised, while Mr. Post, in defending himself, criticised the department of justice. MT. Palmer, called to the stand in rebuttal, criticised MT. Post. Enmity between the two became highly developed. Then it was that some- thing was said to the effect that the President would be forced to decide which of the two must be boss.
 Quite recently the National Popular Government League which reveals in it's name it's contention that the existing gov- ernment is not popular and therefore not of the people, issued a statement Tn

Remarking that in 1919 there was
