The mercury registered only a few
degrees below zero. There was also
some doubt as to the trail selected by

they were winding down the Missa

The Judge by the way he conducts his
court room has convinced them there
will be no dilly-dallying when he
starts to take an active part in run
ming baseball.
For the present, the judge has take
a "standpat" attitude on his baseball
job, and does not contemplate any
move until he has become more
familiar with the inner workings Of or
ganiZed baseball
the judge said today in explaining why
he wanted to get well on his feet be-
fore taking any steps.
Speeds Court Cases.
The judge is greeted every morning
in his reception room by many fans
who come to talk with him about base
ball. He receives them in his cham
bers, but his attitude is best shown by
the fact that whenever a fan goes to
ask him about baseball. the interview
ends by the judge questioning the visi-
tor on what he knows about baseball.
Lands is following closely the dis
cussions among magnates regarding
the proposed working agreement of
major and minor leagues. The judge
will get his fleet wet" in the baseball
game when baseball leaders meet her,
the latter part of this week and early
next week to work up the problem
along with the new national constitu-
ton" of baseball. The Judge is speed
ing up the cases in his crowded court
docket in order to have time to attend
the baseball meetings.

JUST SOVIET BLUFF
Russian Plans for Spring Drive
Part Of Propaganda.
Moscow Hopes to Force Trade
Agreements Thru.

London, Jan. 6. Russia's military
campaign next summer will be gov
erned by the outcome of her trade
negotiations, it became apparent here
today. Trade, it was believed, Will
determine what region shall be at
tackled as well as the time for the
campaign.
Trading with Great Britain has
been in allegiance for more than six
months but a sort of unofficial COM
merce has been built up as nucleus
for full resumption of business rela-
tions. Meanwhile, the two countries
are disputing over the British de-
mands that the soviet government
cease scattering propaganda.
Russia Is Threatening.
In some quarters, it was charged
Russia is using her military concen-
trations as a threat to bring about
trade resumption.
Aside from the difficulties of reach
ing an agreement to resume trade,
there will be trouble in adjusting the
systems employed by Britain and the
communistic government of Russia, 1t
was learned today.
Big Corporation Planned.
A tentative plan has been devised
under which 1.-THE Russian trading
corporation will be formed. This
corporation would be capitalized at
ten million pounds, half subscribed
by Russia, half in Great Britain. The
Russian and British branches of the
corporation would split their profits
evenly, the former operating as a
monopoly in Russia as a branch OF
the government
The British branch would be en-
powered to purchase from manufac-
turers of their own country all Rus
sian requirements and export them.
II also would control the sale of Rus
sian products in the British empire.
A full discussion of the scheme as
well as counter proposals will be I'M
dertaken by the Chamber of Com
merca here January II.

PUBLIC SAYS NO.
Driven to Death, Citizens Have
Tied Purse Strings.
War Developed Methods Failed
in Times of Peace.

Chicago, Jan 6.-The drive-driven
public has tied its purse strings and is
now vehemently shouting mo" to
drivers" asking for funds to support
many charitable organizations.
The end of drives was seen today
when a survey conducted by the
United Press showed that few appeals
to the public for large funds have been
successful in the United States during
the last year.
The method of raising funds by in
tensive public appeals was born during
the war when the public was educated
to give until it hurts" Golden
streams continued to flow into cam
paign headquarters until a year ago,
when the public started to turn.
Chares A. Piez. chairman of the
United States shipping board during
the war, and who has headed many
financial campaigns in Chicago and
the middle west, said today that the
intensive drive for funds by charitable
organizations is at an end.
1.-The public has been driven to
DEATH" Piez said. "If charitable or
CARNATIONS are to exist, some new
method must be found for raising
money"
Piez pointed out thatlno only does
the public refuse to contribute, but
that it is next to impossible to secure
volunteer workers to solicit funds.
Driving the public became a pro-
fession during the war and continued
long after Mushroom campaign COM
panies grew up in New York and Chi
cago whose purpose it was to raise
funds fol orga nizations. Many of
these took campaign on percentage
basis while others sent out workers for
whose services large pay was exacted
Piez said today that most of these
ar,s1 - i.
fusal of the public to support the
campaign profession.
Professionals Sold Ideas.
The method of professional cam
paignerS was outlined by one of their
leaders. They would go into a COM
munity, he said. and "sell'' the idea OF
campaign to one of the leading citi-
zens. This leader in the community
would become the chairman of the
campaign and would call others to
volunteer to raise funds for the or
ganiZation.
During the campaign, countless cir
Gus stunts would be put on to get the
attention of the public.
The first big campaign to fail was
the Interchurch World movement q
year ago. In this drive. only a small
percentage of the funds asked was
raised. The movement was to cam
paign annually for five years, but nc
effort has been made since to revive
the movement.
The Red Cross in a recent drive in
Chicago received only SO per cent OF
| its quota. the Polytechnic hospital sc
per cent, and the Republican national
committee 70 per cent. Figures or
| the Democratic campaign were not
available, but it is understood. only a
small percentage was raised.
| The Salvation Army, conceded to be
one of the most popular charitab BILE or
CARNATIONS in the mind of the public
recently raised but s250.0o0 of its
s425,000 Chicago quota.
Piez suggested that organizations in
the future appeal only to those inter
ested in their work. He proposed thai
those interested pledge definite sum
each year and that house drives be
eliminated.
