with Urban Fabsr in a pitching
duel on Sunday afternoon. A cold
wind swept the field. 1t put pep
into the Griffs. VINO had been
soundly baked. roasted and all but
stewed down by the banks Of the
Mississippi. That refreshing breeze
certainly made a great pitcher out
OF johnson. He proceeded to hold
the White sox to four hits.
While 1t Is true that the lone run
Of the day was checked up because
Earl shsely dropped Brewers high
ny AT the plate In the ninth with
two out. nevertheless the Griffs
deserved to win the victory. All
the afternoon they were knocking
at the door. almost scoring yet al
ways failing. and they were greatly
outfielding the home team. so much

Forecasts Of general business con-

I'm the opinion of conservative observ-
ers, because Of the many uncertainties
which beset the era Of readjustment
and reconstruction.
Leaders Of industry and finance en-
phasizo the opinion that return to
normal conditions cannot be &C
compllshed until everybody settles
down % earnest work, economy and

Belief expressed BY many, that The
United States is destined 70 grow as "a
