their hands. This has been the fate of
professional baseball everywhere. 1t is
the same procedure that killed the
Northern league which operated in this
section for several years and ended in an
orgy Of expense. The one way to run
semi professional baseball is to get to-
gether a team that can be supported by
the normal crowd town can turn out
and playing teams in the same class.

Hard to Recognize Crisis.

DUBLIN. Aug. II Associated Press)
The people of Ireland who have en-
ioyed month of peace found it hard to-
day to believe that negotiations between
Eamonn De Valera and Prime Minister
Lloyd George were at the breaking point.
They were placing their hopes in the
Irish Republican parliament which will
meet tomorrow TO consider the whole
correspondence and frame a reply to the
prime minister's latest letter. Sugges-
ton has been made that. the Dali
Eireann may propose submission of the
question to plebiscite, but this pro-
posal may not come from those wishing
to prolong the truce as long as possible.

PROHIBITION EFFICIENCY

An eminent British doctor, Sir Arthur Newshome, bas been travelling and studying in America for two years He finds mdoubed proofs of the efficiency and benefits of prohibition The doctor has devoted much of his time to studying this subject He is fitted to speak with authority because of his ability and because British traditions as to alcoholic drinks and the rights of the n diyidua would keep him from undue prejudice in favor of prohibition
 The doctor reports that the ban on alcohol and the saloon has had good influence in the fight against ubercu oss He thinks it has been decided agency in check ing the spread of social diseases and he finds reason To think that it has stimulated the use of drugs.
 So much emphasis has been given to the disastrous effects from the consumption of illicit brews and to the booteggng industry that it is hard to believe either that prohibition is effective that any real good is resulting from it. Testimony like Dr. Newshome s is valuable as
 corrective for these ideas. It is the sort of testimony which ultimately will make vain all efforts to turn the liquor tide to the flood again in America.

THE uNsPOKEN NAME

Premier Briand just before he left for France tod grop of correspondents that the deliberations at Wash npton would undoubtedly make necessary for the pow- CTS represented to meet and confer hereafter probaby at rather frequent intervals Whereupon some incau- tious scribe mterposed:
 But that is the League of Nations!'
 "Hushl" replied Briand with grin. ''Neyer speak that name aloud in this country. We might talk of a League of Governments perhaps"
 There is a jest with seriousness back of it The League of Nations s indeed taboo in diplomatic discus sons at present and also in newspaper discussions Yet this silence may cover deal of thinking Statesmen know and other thoughtful people know that If the arms conference arrives at any conclusions worth wme some continuing organization win have to be provided to see that those conclusions are carried out.
 There is renewed talk of am association of nations The league however naturally comes to mind because 1t is the only existing organization to which such job might be given. Though possessing little prestige or uhoritv as vet it has the machinery for such work Bt inc United States is not in the league and nobody knows whether it ever will be.
 It may be expected that the conference will try to continue itself or to create larger body with greater bowers. to carry on its work But that would be a rival of the league Could both exist working independently Or would one have to die! And if which! These are questions that may have to be answered before long
