Tor one as q resident OF this city ex-
press my views Ia regards 10 the
building situation.
We. the public. which consists 80
percent OF laboring people or the
city OF South Bend do feel there
should DO a decision rendered at
once. We can wei go back 20 the
month OF January OF this year
when the employers OF the different
factories Of this vicinity started re-
ducing the wages Of their en-
pioyees At that cine the building
craftsmen knew there would be
moro CT less trouble when there
agreement expired, April II. so they
have prepared themselves.
At this time they feel they are
asking for nothing. but what has
previously been granted 20 them.
without the public's criticism
The public. IN general. previous
% the first OF April were told by
various contractors LudL wages
would be reduced. and naturally
thought there would be another cut
in their wages. so they have re-
fused TO invest any money only for
tho bare necessities. This condition
has caused the merchants TO operate
their business at a loss. IL IS plain
TO be seen that the entire labor sit
uatiOn hinges on the present build
ing trades dispute. Therefore II this
dispute was settled by granting the
different crafts what they already
have been granted previous 90 April
], the public would know where they
were at, and at once would open
the market for the merchant and
tho public IN general For the pub
lie, which consists Of 90 percent
laboring people, would know that
their wages would remain where

ANOTHER TRIUMPH
FOR JOHN N 'GRAW
He and His Giants Have Again
Landed a Pennant for
New York.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening.

BY Associated Press to Every Evening.
New York, Sept. S0-Reunited after
many years of glory and strife on the
diamond a great trio of baseball play
srs has brought the New York Giants
through this seasons battles for the
pennant. John McGraw, Hughey Jen-
nings, Jesse Burkett-the names of
all three written at the top Of the
list OF baseball's heroes.
McGraw is finishing his twentieth
year as manager of the New Yorks
and in this year he has had as first
assistant, Jennings his old team mate
on the old team OF Orioles of Balti-
more, and Burkett. as the second
deputy. The individual records of this
trio At bat and afeld. stands ont
among the greatest in the history of
the game.
Burkett has never had the good
! fortune 10 manage a major league
pennant winner, but McGraw has
piloted the Giants 10 a goodly string
of flags and Jennings won three pen
nants with the Tigers.
McGraw was a third baseman, first
with the great Baltimore club and
then with St. Louis, and when he
landed in New York he retired as an
active and became a leader-one OF
the foremost in the annals of the
game. Jennings was shortstop-firsi
with Louisville. then with Baltimore
and finally with Brooklyn. His work
as manager in Detroit came 10 a close
with the season Of 1920.
Burkett came to the Giants in 1896
as a pitcher, but was converted into
an outfielder because he could not con,
troll his left handed shoots. And a,
an outfielder with New York, Cleve
land and ST. Louis, Burkett made his
tory as one of the most able bats
linen in the game.
