He is peculiar hitter. One never knows whether
he will knock the ball mile strike out remember
last year when he with Boston and the Red Sox
playing in Detroit In that series he was at bat
twelve times and struck out eight times. He got four
hits three homcrs and single. IIc strikes out a lot

II don't believe Ruth tries outgucss rhe opposing

Nashville, Tenn, March 24-(Re-
ciprocal News Service)-An end has
come to the great Baptist lawsuit and
DR.. Boyd and his associates were vic /
torious. 1t occurred last week in theI
Supreme Court of Tennessee, when
that court handed down their decision
in favor of r. H. Boyd, C. H. Clark,
j. P. Robinson, G.. B. Taylor, L. L.
Campbell, j. A. Brown, j. L. Hardingl
and j. c. Field, constituting the Ma
tional BaptisE Publishing Board.
The Supreme Courts decision up
held the decision, the decree and the
opinion of the Civil Court of Appeals,
who decided IN favor of DR.. Boyd and
his co-workers in the National Baptist
Publishing Board. And the Civil
Court of Appeals likewise had sus-
tanned Special Judge Cherry in the
Chancery Court, who decided in favor
of DR.. R. H. Boyd and his co-workers
of the National Baptist Publishing
Board. There have been three dis
tinct decisions in the publishing house
lawsuit in favor of the venerable Dr.
Boyd. There were three decisions in
the courts of Chicago in favor of DR..
E. P. Jones of the National Baptist
Convention, Unincorporated, who is
allied with DR.. Bayd and the workers
of the publishing board In the sum
ming up the results, the Baptist folks
declared that the Unincorporated Con-
vention, known as the Little R. F.
D.'s", or Jones Faction" by this de-
cision of the Supreme Court, had won
six decisive victories, thus putting
out the E. 9. Morris folks whom they
have always styled as destructionists.
There is a great deal of history in
connection with the litigation which
started in Chicago. III, in September,
1915; when the Convention separated
over the question of a charter which
had been obtained ~ seven men who
were unauthorized to do so, and who
proposed to confiscate all the proper
ty of the Negro Baptists of the United
States. This charter, it is claimed,
they make every church owning a dol
lars worth of property, that enrolled
with the Morris Convention response

tion, regardless of how reckless DR..
Morris and his co-workers might be,
as it is pointed out he ran the old

Convention constantly in debt for the
past twenty years and that he had
even failed to organize his Conven-
tion. When the Chicago Convention
was called to order, the question Of a
charter was presented and upon three
decisive votes the opponents of the
incorporation were victorious, where
upon the Morris followers attempted
Ito adjourn the convention. 44fi
Arizona republican., 1920-03-14

we succeeded in having the department of labor partly suspend the action of the law, so that we could import Mexi- can labor by having them duly passed and inspected, and by returning them to Mexico.
 The only way we got by again this year was by virtue of the fact that your representatives stooc for the de sires and necessities of thousands Of us. all working together.
 The farmers may think that the open shop fight has no interest for them, but let me tell you that 1t does When we were in Washington trying to get permission to bring in Mexican labor again this year we ran up against it every day.
 This year we must furnish labor for probably 100000 acres. including the Florence Casa Grande and Tucson dis tricts It will probably take 2O.OOO men. They must all come through No gales, anG in order to properly care for them we must have buildings of our own there, q photographic depart ment to get out the identification cards, and a number of other things we have never had.
 Labor eds of This Season
 We must care for them in such shape that there can be no possible criticism We will have to handle 300 to 400 per day to supply the demand, and | suggest that the larger growers have quarters prepared and take care of the labor they will need from about the first of August instead of the 21th as has been the custom. In this way we can get enough labor on hand to be able to keep up."
 F. W. Hudson was then called on for a talk on the preparation of the Scec bed, and then ensued a general forum on methods. followed by a talk by the county agent H. C. Heard, on irriga- tion practice.
 Five directors were then chosen for the Phoenix district of the association who will select two from their number to be directors of the central aSsocia- tion with headquarters at Tempe.
 The directors named were chosen by unanimous vote and were J. Garnett Holmes, Rodney Mcdonald. F. O. Brown, Ralph. Murphy and Frank H. Parker. Owing to the absence of MT. Brown, the two directors for the head organization were not chosen by the new directors.
