THE REToRT COURTEOUS

Mulcahy and O'Brien liye in the
same house on Tenth ave.-O'Brien
on the ground floor, and Mulcahy
on-the floor above. The other day
OBrien was looking out of his
window and, gfancing up, he saw
Mulcahy on the same job.
"Say, Mulcahy," says O'Brien,
IF had face like yours I'd take
it in and put a pigs out instead"

The grocer turned to his numer-

and get them what they want;

Idea of Raising Prices by Destroy
ing Produce is Economic Fall
lacy-N0 Record of Such
Reports Being Sub
stantiated.

A report published In the daily
newspapers on August II that 80
cars of potatoes had been dumped
into the Delaware river near Will
mington in order "to keep prices
up" and constant repetition of the
report since that time, both in news
columns and editorial comment
make it desirable that the absurd
ity of the report as shown by an
investigation by the United States
bureau of markets shall be made
public. The bureau is the more de-
sirous of making this investigation
public because such charges that
perishable foods are dumped "to
keep prices up" or ito raise prices"
are made from time to time and
are accepted by a large, part of the
public as true, whereas the bureau
of markets has never been able
to observe or to obtain creditable
testimony of the dumping of SUCH
produce for the supposed purposes
charged.
Absurd Charges Harmful
Wherever practices In the distri-
button of perishables are deserv-
ing of criticism, criticism should be
unsparing; but where charges are
obviously absurd from the most
elementary economic considera-
tions, their publication may do a
great deal of harm. Under such
conditions persons in daily con-
tact with the marketing machinery
of the country and understanding
its operations, whether they be pro-
ducers, dealers, or agents of the
public, are likely, however unjust
ly, to feel that such reports are
spread either through a malicious
desire to injure distributors or be-
cause Of thoughtfess striving for
sensationalism, irrespective of how
harmful the spreading of false in
formation may be. The bureau
feels that there are b number of
tribution practices Of he country
just cases for criticism of the dis
and is carrying on constructive
work wherever possible to eliminate
such causes. The leveling at distri-
butors of ridiculous charges in re-
gard to evils that do not exist can
only serve to hinder progress in
correcting real evils.
In regard to dumping in general
it should be pointed out that occas-
ionally relatively small quantities
Of produce are condemned by the
health officials as unfit for food
and are dumped ard similarly in
some cases railroad companies have
found it necessary to throw away
produce on which freight has not

Sherman Whiting, who has been

of glut conditions, there is no mar

yet to learn, however, of any case

 In it the athletes declare that the food and quarters provided at Fort SlocIm, where the team was kept prior to sailing, were not conducive to the proper initial training. and sec end, though the Government had done its best with the accomm odations available on the transport Princess Matokia, the accommodations would have too be labeled entirely unf1tted for houAiTy the -country's best ath- letes-

Detroit, Mich., Aug. 9"Col. Rup- pert of the Yankees, who is here con- sulting with Col Huston, Miller Hug gins and Joe Kelley on club business, says the Yankees will play to more than 100000 persons at home this year, and he ought to know. They will play to more than 500,000 away from home, and unquestionably are the biggest home and abroad attrac- tion the game has known. Guess which individual member has the most to do with this. Right. Babe Ruth, and as news feature the Babe is made Ynuch more of in the West than in the East.

OLSON STUFFS EARS
 TO ESCAPE JEERS

Ivan Olson, the peppery shortstop of the Brooklyn Dodgers, sprang something new in the line of comedy at yesterdays game woth the Pirates at Ezbbets Field. Olson has been gull ty of a few fielding miscues in the last few games and the home fans, as a result, have been riding him un- mercifully. The jeers didn't help Ivy to resume his normal fielding stride, either, and yesterday he decided to equip himself so that he couldn't hear the comment from the stands, whether he bobbled or made a star play He stuffed both his ears with large wads of cotton, so displayed that they could be seen from any part of the field, standing out on either side of his dome like couple of beacon lights dark night Ivan kept them there for the greater part of the game. but finally removed them so that he could enter better into con- versa ton with the umpires. Ivan made one error in the course of the game, but he also made some excel lent catches- He likewise made two of the Dodgers eight hits.
