MAY
EVEN MATTERS
New Brunswick Team May be
Padded Strong to In
sure Victory

A tie for Middlesex county base
ball honors may result from the
meeting Of the Landings of New
Brunswick and the Perth Amboy
Athletic Association nine on the
Raritan Copper Works field this
Sunday afternoon. It will be prac-
tically impossible to play another
game the following Sunday to decide
the championship If the present
weather continues.
If the Landings defeat the Am
boys here Sunday afternoon the tie
will result. The local magnates,
however, are confident OF the ability
of their players to again down the
colors OF the county seat tossers as
a result of the Amboys showing
against Railway last Sunday after
noon. The locals came from behind
after being held scoreless by
Whitley" Schultz for fifteen consec-
utive innings, nine innings of the
first game which was won by Rah-
way and six innings in the contest
last Sunday.
Mike 500, who was responsible
for the winning of his wi game
mound against the Landings and 1t
is probable that Rogers of South
Amboy will do the twirling for the
visitors.
There is a possibility that the New
Brunswick team will be padded
through the acquisition of one or
two new men of big league fame.
One Of the new players may be
Parkinson of the Philadelphia Ma
tionals.
Amboy won the first game of this
series on the local field and the Sec
ond contest on the New Brunswick
field ended in a tie.

BIG ADVANCES

Most of the big advances have been
the work of several generations. The
next advances will be the elimination
OF centuries, says the Dearborn indie
pendent. The human soul has been
preparing the material out of which
new changes will come-preparing it
by suffering. indignation, futile efforts
at escape and yearning hope for a
new order in the future. Countless
multitudes prepare the material for
every advance, but the largest multi
tude Of all has prepared for the next
advance, which ought to abolish every
thought Of individual glory, and cure
all childish impatience with the ap-
parent slowness Of progress. The
snort successes that can be gained in
brief time and without difficulty, are
not worth much. The tree that lives
for centuries has as much rootage
underground as it has branches in the
air. The work is for all who see it :
its benefit is for all who share it :
talk of personal glory is impossible,
is out Of place, in the movement for
better social order.

There doesn't seem to be any
medium of exchange in Russia and
money will not stand still long
enough to be counted. The soviet
government is therefore proposing to
make the pood of barley the unit of
exchange. Barley is national staple,
and just now can be used in any home
1t can be used for bread, coffee or
beer. A pood Of barley is equal to
36 pounds in this country and might
be called the new dollar of the soviets.
A commission has fixed it's exchange
value for so many eggs, potatoes,
cigarettes, hairpins. collar buttons and
the like. Any gentleman contemplate
ing trip to Russia would do we'll to
carry a few pools Of barley in his
trunk, says the Los Angeles Times.
He will 60 farther than he would if
equipped with bale Of paper rubles.
1t seems funny that the basis of the
home brew in this country should be
accepted as money in Russia. But
why not?

Harding Says Failure to Ratify
Pacts Will Make Futile Any
Efforts for World Peace.
PLEA SPEEDS ACTION
Senate Committee Begins Considera.
ton Of Seven Treaties at Once
President, on Floor of Cham
Der, Defends Agreements.

washington President Harding
asked the Senate to give approval tc
the arms conference treaties in order
that Americas protested desire to rid
the world of war may not become "a
hollow mockery.''
If we cannot join in making effec
tive these covenants for peace" he
said, and stamp this conference with
Americas approval, we shall dis.
credit the influence of the republic
render future efforts futile and un.
likely and write disbursement
where today the world is ready to &C.
claim new hope"
Delivering his message in person
IN voice and manner that betokened
deep emotion, the President was an.
sWered repeatedly by applause from
floor and gallery. He asked that rati
tcation be given without delay, and
before he left the Capitol, Senate ma,
chlnery was set in motion to hasten
vote.
Five principal treaties and two SUD.
Elemental agreements, the fruition OF
the IL weeks of negotiation just con.
creed here, were in the bundle of in.
ternauonal covenants taken to the
Senate chamber by Mr.. Harding. They
propose, in short, a limitation on
naval armament, new bill of rights
Tor China and four-power concord
TO preserve peace in the Pacific.
For Clear Understanding.
All of these agreements said the
President, are related portions of the
EFFORT Ito put an end to contradic.
lions, to remove antiquities, and to
establish clear understandings" None
or them, he asserted, commits the
American government ito any kind of
an alliance, ENHANCEMENT or involve.
ment."
After the address was completed.
both Republican and Democratic
leaders predicted that the. treaties
would be ratified without long debate
and by substantial majorities. ONLY
one, the four-power Pacific pact, is
treatened now with organized opposi
ton and its opponents have not yet
demonstrated how large vote they
can command against the strength Of
party leaders on both sides of the
chamber.
Actual consideration of the cove.
nants is to begin at a meeting of the
foreign relations committee, to which
they were referred without debate and
on motion of the committee chair.
man, Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
1t is thought unlikely, however, that
the meeting will do more than make
a preliminary examination of the in.
formation which comes before it along
with the treaties.
Included in this data is a transcript
OF the proceedings of the conference
and its committees and long report
by the American delegation to the
conference, declaring the treaties are
the result Of new world "state of
mind tending away from suspicion
and apprehension and toward mutual
trust and confidence. These doco.
ments were given to the Senate by
the President for its guidance during
