route.
The missionaries from "the land where
the climate always is perfect" had long
talk with Charles A. Stoneham and then
opened with new vigor on McGraw and
Jim Tierney. The trio admitted that
they have some rain and few cloudy
days out their way and McGraw sec
onded the motion with the recollection
that when he took the Giants to the
coast in 1906 they had been forced to
lay off for an entire week on account
of what in the, East is called rain.
McGraw said that he was not ready
to make any decision. The coast trio
will be around here for quite a spell
They will go to Louisville for the minor
league congress on December and will
come back here for the string of major
league sessions-the National League
meeting on December 13, the American
League meeting on the following day and
the joint session on December Is. The
call for the convocation of both leagues
with Judge Lands was issued yesterday.
1t will be held at the Commodore. The
annual meeting of the international
League will precede the major sessions,
on December ~.
1t looks very much as If McGraw will
decide in favor Of Sa l Antonio, just as
the Yanks decided again in favor of New
Orleans. For one thing Mac is highly
superstitious. He has won two pennants
and two world championships out of
San Antonio. and it is our prediction
that the Giants will work there for the
fourth time.

San Antonio.
NO WORD FROM McGRAW

BY DANIEL.

Red fire was burned generously along
Canal street In New Orleans last night.
Roman candles were set off with aban-
don in the Spanish Fort and other gath
ering places of the dilletante of the
Crescent City. There was widespread
jubiliation, for the natives just had been
informed from the offices of the Yankees
that Babe Ruth and his supporting cast
again would be in their midst in March.
Ed Barrow announced yesterday af-
ternoon that after long deliberation Col.
Rupert, Col. Huston. Miller Huggins
and he had arrived at the conclusion
that New Orleans would be the best
place to send the Yankees for their
spring training. The club won the
American League pennant after work
ing in the Crescent City last March. and
the powers that be figured that the team
could do a lot worse by going elsewhere.
The selection of New Orleans by the
Yankees is taken to mean that Barrow
has received intimations from San
Antonio that the Giants would return
there. Higgins was very anxious to

VIII Play Dodgers Again.
The Yankees will join forces with the
Dodgers again for the tour northward,
but no definite action has been taken
along those lines. Barrow will wait un-
til Charley Ebbets selects his training
,camp. The Squire of Flatbush will sail
to-day for Florida, where he will inspect
the facilities offered by Clearwater,
town about thirty miles from St Peters
burg, on the Gulf side of the peninsula.
The BrookIyns trained in Jacksonville
last March. but the Squire is not in
favor of returning there. He would
like to settle In the midst of the training
colony around st. Petersburg and form
a Cocoanut League with the Braves,
Phillies, Reds and Senator's.
Because of the fact that the major
league season of 1923 will open a week
later than usual, on April II. the Yam
KEGS will not hasten to New Orleans in
time to begin work on March /. This
was the custom in other years. The
boys will get their marching orders with

Yankees will have four Saturdays and
sundays in New Orleans. and very like

ideal location at the lake, on the

More Homes.

Union City is ready to move for
ward, and there is really nothing ii
the way except the lack of living
quarters for the workers and student:
in schools.
The Brown Shoe Company branch
factory is one of the future industries
of Union City. The Childs Speciality
House is making an additional in
stallment of machines and will soon
be calling for more help. The Mot
low Milling Co., the Reynolds Pack
ing Co., the Union City Garment
Co., the Canvas Decoy Co., the Cen
trail Broom Co., the Jackson Co., all
of these Industries must have opera,
tors for capacity output to meet the
demands for increased supplies.
And there is hardly single va
cant house to rent in Union City.
AS the orator says, this is condi-
ton and not theory that is con-
fronting us.
Union City must have more homes.
One hundred comfortable small
homes could be rented in thirty days
and two hundred as soon as the new
factory opens next spring. How are
we going to get these homes? Land
ing a big shoe factory is indeed an
achievement for a town like Union
City. But when it is landed the job
is not finished. The workers who
are to enter this and other factories
must have comfortable homes. You
can locate factories, but you cannot
operate them without homes.
The homes may be very small.
That will be no drawback. 1t will
rather be an advantage, but they
must be built with a view of sani-
tation and comfort. Workers will
not be satisfied with anything less,
and no city can do its duty if the
homes provided for its daily workers
are not comfortable and clean.
We must have more homes in I'm
ion City Can't the Union City Saw
ings and Loan Association in connec-
tion with the lumber companies de-
wise some plans for additional homes
in Union City?

people to use in writing a short
sketch of the company and its
deeds, also a brief biographical
sketch of each. and every member
This material has been put up into a
booklet of about fifty-five pages, and
is very interesting especially to those
who are interested in the deeds of
Valor of these soldiers. The book
will be useful and valuable to the
friends or relatives to keep for their
children and posterity. 1t will be
useful for reference or for anything
that will come up in which the de-
Scendants may learn of their fore
fathers who were in the Confederate
service. There are many people now
who are trying to find the records of
their people in the War of the Revo-
luton, and they find none.

have sold large quantities of goods

one of the very big sales which take
place in Union City.

The Legion Auxiliary.

The American Legion Auxiliary o.
the Milton Talley Post is doing very
worthy and helpful work just now IL
responding to calls to cheer the
wounded soldiers in the johnson Cit,
hospital. A box of monograph rec
ords, cigarettes and books was sen,
a week ago and the Legion is now
getting ready box of jelly, pre-
serves, pickles, candy, cake, etc., and
is also meeting frequently to make
some attractive writing boards for
each soldier.
Ward No. S has been especially
designated to this unit of the Auxil-
larry and special pride and in
terest is felt in the welfare of these
soldiers. The Auxiliary is planning
to raise money to send some maya
zine subscriptions to this ward, as it
feels the receipt of the new maya
zines will be something definite to
be looked forward to each month,
and more interesting than lot of old
arriving at once.
Another occasion for special inter
est in this hospital is the fact that
Miss Mary Stuttgart is at work
among the soldiers there and for this
reason, her mother, Mrs. w. H. Swig-
CART, Sr., was made chairman of the
hospital work.

There is an article on another
page which says, Lack Of co-opera
tion by the United States Department
of Agriculture in the consideration Of
national legislation is charged in c
report by the legislative committee
of the principal grain exchanges OF
the country"
1t seems that the grain exchanges
are not satisfied il they cannot con-
tinue the gambling features of the
system. The law to stop grain gam
bling was one of the recent acts OF
Congress, and now the grain ex-
changes are asking the help of the
Department of Agriculture to nullify
this law.
Generally speaking the people are
inclined to patronize the gambling
features of these institutions and do
not deserve any defense. But the
system is wrong and no reputable
paper can defend it, The trouble is
that the people are robbed of their
money. The exchanges and brokers
take the money out of the country.
Just as well try to walk thru stone
wall as to beat the game. You can't
do it.
The Department of Agriculture
cannot afford to join hands with the
grain exchanges in multiplying this
law. If it does then the Department
of Agriculture, if it has any great
achievements to it's credit, will more
than counterfeit every good thing it
has done. Its usefulness will be de-
stroyed entirely
Futures!
That's the polite name for gam
bling in grain, stocks, etc. It's a
smoke screen for mere national and
International crooks than any other
system of gambling i'll the world, and
the grain exchanges are about to
throw fits because there is an inclina-
tion to respect the law and condemn
the damnable practice to disrepute.
Union City, in days gone by, has
had several very impressive lessons
in this popular diversion. Quite a
Number were consumed. Others were
singed.
Altogether, from time to time, the
members of the exchanges and the
brokers have taken a million dollars
cut of Union City.
You want to know why New York
City reeks in wealth: Exchanges

ing cap on and you can work 1t
