Fans Invited to Attend Base- ball Scrap Here
 Today
By MARVIN M,CARTEY

Provided the bit of genuine baseball weather of yesterday lasts another day, or in fact, if the soggy damp, oozing slush of several of the past five days doesn't horn in again this afternoon, the Baronial rockies will be sent to battle against Harry Santi- meyers Lewisburg outfit at Rick wood park. The game this afternoon will start at 2:30 o'clock, and rail- birds are invited to step out to the Wood to look over the youngsters, as guests of the Birmingham baseball association.
 A squad of over 30 rockies has been working out and attempting to work out at Rickwood Park all week. and a rather formidable team should be moulded from these youngsters to face the Lewisburg outfit.
 Santimeyer is offering a combina- tion of local city league and semi pro stars for fandom's consideration, and believes he has strong enough team to whale the young Barons at Redwood this afternoon.
 Ralph Dodds, a big right handler from West Blocton, will start on the hill for the Rookie Barons, while other young hurlers will probably be used before the fracas is over. Here is the way the teams will probably lineup this afternoon:
 Baron Rookies-Kane, second base; Morhman shortstop; Rymer, left field; Tice, right field; Simon, center field; Traynor, first base; Gooch, third base: 10th, catcher; Dodds, pitcher.
 Lewisburg-Wannigan, shortstop; Snyder. second base; Freeman, third base: Marshall, right field; Carlin, center field; Greet. first base; Knox, left field; c. O'Brien, catcher; Haw- kins, pitcher.

Only by Organization Can

Measure Of Economic
Justice, He Declares.

Washington. Sept. S.-Only by
organization and more organiza-
ton can the workers OF America
secure a full measure Of economic
justice. President Samuel Comp
ers of the American Federation of
Labor, declared tonight in Labor
day message addressed to the
people.
A four-year "anti-labor war"
Mr.. Gompers said, had demon
strated the power or the trade
union to protect its members
against organized employers. be-
fore whom organized lsoors had
found itself weakened. scattered
and helpless" He added that the
time had come for laboring men
and women at last to present "a
united workers front to the powers
that prey" The message in part
follows.
Every contest with the owners
and manipulators of industry ac-
centuates the truth that the work.
ers have but few outside their own
ranks who sympathize with them
in their determination to emanci-
pate mankind or support them in
their efforts.
"The uncounted victories that
organized labor wins, the few tenn
porary setbacks that labor expert
ences, cry aloud the divine truth
that Justice for those who toll can
only come through the workers
own efforts, their own organiza-
tion, their own persistency.
Now is the time for the work.
ers to rally more completely under
the standard of the unions"

FORGET DESTRUCTIVE
THOUGHTS, LEES PLEA

Cleveland, O.. Sept. S.-A plea to
forget destructive thoughts and
turn time and energy to construct
ing policies is contained in the
Labor day message of w. G. Lee.
president of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen.
Labor is charged with being
militant and the charge is true"
he said. "The same may he said
of any nation or people who have
accomplished anything. Had labor
not been militant the relation of
master and slave would still exist.
Whatever labor has gained it
has secured by it's strength either
directed through the force of it's
organizations or through the enact
ment Of laws and has done so
against the combined forces of the
employer.
Instead of continuing pro-
gram of reprisals both capital and
labor 'Nust agree to a common
sense fair and practical adjustment
OF their differences or there will be
what amounts to conscription Of
certain classes of both in the in
terest of common welfare.
