SHRINERS WIN
FROM DOKEYS
Humbled DOkeys In the Second
Game of Series Wednesday.
Score Twelve TO Eight.

In a game replete with ragged
playing, wild throwing and all Of the
3 iliosyneracies and ecceutricities known
to baseball the Shriners humbled the
Dokey team Wednesday afternoon in
the second game Of the series, score
II to 8.
They had the Dokeys on their
Knees at the shrine Of baseball, and
they outplayed them at every stage
Of the contest.
Walter Swoope was on the mound
for the Shrincrs and he yielded only
q hits, though the official scorer
credited hits where errors were made
and runners got on. Only twelve
clean hits were registered against
his delivery.
Manager kuykundall sent in a dark
horse, Mr.. Oscar Dotherow, but he
proved to be a "blind white horse"
He white-eyed in the fourth inning,
overcome with heat and Kuykendall
had to go in to save his face.
Ed held the Shrincrs 10 five hits
in the three innings and his team
mates held them to eight runs during
this three-inning period.
Il was great game, but little in
terest was manifested. The crowd
was small and the day was hot.

dustry were sharply outlined to-
day by officials of the cabinet un-
der these heads:
(1) The War Finance Corpora
tion, by legislation which Presi-

lend up to 81 ,OOO,OOO,OOO to revive

(2) Quick relief for the rail

close of August, with new assur-
ances that the legislative track
will be cleared to make this fl

crop producers will share the gov
ernment advances is tlot now de-
finitely clear, but it is evident
from the proposals now being
considered that the government
will release cash in such volume
as will adequately safeguard the
producers against losses. The cot
ton Industry alone at the end of
another 60 days will have re-
ceived probably not less than
$1OO,OOO,OOO.
Equally large support will be
given under the corporations new
powers to finance export commO-
dities under conditions which will
enable producers or exporters to
hold the goods in American ware
houses for a period of six months
before actual movement overseas.
Federal Reserve Bank agencies
in all parts of the United States,
by new plans projected by Gov.
Harding, are to facilitate the dis
tribution of needed credit by
serving as the fiscal representa-
tives Of the War Finance Corpora
ton. This will remove many tech
nical delays and render financial
relief more prompt.
The background for these far
reaching moves, as outlined au
,thoritatively today, is that more
favorable credit readjustments
abroad forecast with fair GER
tainty the ability of foreign cou'l-
tries to buy heavily of the United
States in the near future. For
eign countries, while far from
financial stability, are recovering
sufficiently to justify the pre-
diction of officials here of an
unprecedented demand for Ameri-
can products.
