they practically admit. In the last play
ing season Babe Ruth hammered out
ffty-nine home runs In the season be-
fore he batted fifty-four,
1t may be that his home run record
will be lower this year because he is
handicapped by the penalty imposed on
him by Judge Landis. The high arbiter
of baseball has ruled that Ruth shall
not be allowed to start playing In the
regular season this year until May L.
This cuts him thirty playing days out
of 154. 1t is natural 10 believe lie will
fall below last years record.
Then again with the new incentive
Babe Ruth may do better than ever.
Even if he does not and the law OF aver
ages gives him only paltry forty home
runs for the season, this would bring
him total bonus of 10000. which is
the salary paid to Tristram Speaker, the
player manager OF the Cleveland Indians

ROME. Nov. II (Associated Press) -
The Italian Chamber of Deputies to-
night gave vote of confidence by SOC
to l16 to the Government of Benito
Mussolini, the Fascista leader The
minority vote came from Socialist
Communist and Republican Deputies
and a few adherents of former Pre-
nier Nitti
Prior to the debate 1t had been an
nounced by Mussolini that he would
allow eleven Deputies-one from each
group-to address the Chamber. Fifty
three members had desired to be heard.
Hardly had the eleventh man con-
cluded when the Premier sprang to his
feet and began Replying TO interpella-
tors.
The Premier took the rostrum i'm
mediately after Signor Daragona, pres
ident of the Italian Labor Federation,
had spoken on behalf of the working
men and requested the Premier not to
curtail the funds appropriated by the
previous Government to aid unemploy-
ment, which was likely to become
greater during the winter.
Have these men. a right to live ?"
queried Daragona as he took his seat.
II come from the proletariat and have
known the hardships and the near starva-
tion of the poor emigrant," the Premier
said. "Yes. Daragona your working
men will live. Never fear. But the
LaborsFederation must free itself from
the influence of the various Socialist
parties The proletariat headquarters
needs to open its window wide and let

But we shall draw sharp distinction

The Government during debate met
with violent attacks from several Of the
deputies. notably Signor Turati, leader
| Of the Intransigeant Socialists; Signor
Cont. head of the Republicans. and
Signor Nicolussi. head OF the German
group. To all their verbal thrusts, how
! ever, Mussolini was equal, replying
sharply and TO the point.
When Turati spoke of the abominable
manner in which Mussolini had treated
the Chamber the Premier replied testify,
~ treated the Chamber the way 1t de-
served TO be treated"
] For the first time in the history of
| Parllaments," Turati continued, "the
| Government has not presented itself be-
fore the Chamber but the Chamber has
been summoned before the Government
to give it's reasons for being alive. We
prefer death to life by the grace of

"Petty resentment because / wouldn't

President Harding is standing firm
for the ship subsidy bill in its present
form and does not propose to alter its
essential features with the hope OF gain
ing the support Of any group or groups
in Congress-
The President and the Shipping Board
are convinced that the enactment OF
the measure Is essential for the main
tenance of the American merchant ma
rine They feel. too. that the proposals
of the bill will prove economical and
not a heavy drain on tho Treasury.
The Administration, therefore, Will use
every effort to have the measure
enacted at the coming special session
without the adoption OF far reaching
amendments.
take up tho subsidy bill in the House
Thursday, debate it until the following
Wednesday. and then vote on 1t. The
rule agreed on throws the bill open to
amendments on the floor.
This procedure was agreed upon at
meeting of Representative Campbell

mite; Speaker Gillet. (Mass.), Repre-
sentative Mondell (Wyo),, Republican
floor leader, and representatives of the
merchant marine and steering commit

will ask that no subsidy be given, but
that laws be enacted to insure larger
incomes for vessel owners, such as one
compelling American mail to go by

The fixing of a date for vote will
prevent filibuster, leaders think.
Chairman Lasker of the Shipping
Board Issued statement to-day show
ing that the present board. In the first
year OF It's existence has reduced operat-
ing losses to $52,000000 as compared
with loss of from $3.50, GEO. 900 TO $780,
100000 in 1920. Mr.. Lasker pointed
cut efficiencies of the present board and
gives the credit ito those members and
those experts connected with the board
who have spent their lives in shipping
and public life"
The pending bill for relief to the
American merchant marine" he added,
'is largely the product of the same men

provisions of the bin do successfully in

losses of the Shipping Board will be
wiped out. This. we believe, will be ac-
complished within thirty months.
