HOME RUN KING
HAS ARGUMENT

Suspension Likely for Ruth,
But Incident Draws Attention
to Fans Cowardice.
. BY LOUIS A. DOUGHER.

Babe Ruth is likely to be pun
tshed severely for entering the
grandstand at the Polo Grounds,
New York, and seeking to ham
mer an insulting fan. There are
two sides to every question and
the ball player has an excellent
argument to offer in partial pal
liation of his offense.
Ban Johnson is expected to sus-
pend the Yankees home-run hit
ter for ten days. He may impose
a heavy fine on the player. But
Ban johnson will do the game a
great good if he will investigate
conditions surrounding the Incl
dent at the Polo Grounds.
1t is admitted that Babe Ruth
overstepped the bounds on the play.
ing field when, called out stretching
his single, he tossed a handful of
dirt at Umpire Hildebrand. He was
elected from the game for that, then
and there.
1t is admitted that Ruth committed
q cardinal offense when he left the
playing field and sought to beat up
one of his insulters. He is vet to
be punished for that.
Nevertheless Babe Ruth and
every other player In the niaJOr
leagues is entitled to protection
from insult and INJURY on the part
Of the public. Ii is all tOnllvrOt
for a club owner to say he cannot

Ruth is undergoing such experience e
now.
In 1911 Ty Cobb. suffering from
similar insults. rushed into the
stand at the Yankees old Hilltop
park and severely chastised a fan.
He was fined and suspended for ten
days. causing a strike on the part
Of the entire Detroit club. How.
ever, the fine and suspension stuck
and the Detroit club was induced to
play ball. A rule was then adopted
by the American league seeking to
prevent "a repitition of such an act.
Yesterdays affair in New York is
the first since 1911. though Harry
Courtney attempted to stage such n
foolish act at Georgia avenue last
fall.
Babe Ruth is known as an easy.
going man on the field. He leads
no riots. He gives all he has to his
team on the field. In 1919 he
swung on Umpire Brick Owens and
was suspended for five days, but
that was the one rough act in his
career until yesterday.

Robert Woods Bliss Turns Into Treasury About
Quarter Million Dollars Monthly In
Passport Receipts.

The State Department, always re-

an ornamental division of the gov
ernment. has taken a long stride
forward in the revenue producing
line and is now turning over about
quarter OF a million dollars monthly
by way Of passports. May and
June, not the busiest of tourist
months. have brought prospective
travellers in such numbers that the
totals amount almost to 100000.
and this, in the face of the vigor-

Chamber of Commerce that pass
ports were too high and the gov
ernment should Immediately lower
the rate. The next three months
will no doubt double the amount and
send the passport revenue into the
millions each year. 1t has. been

alone, the passports have reached
proportions sufficient to pay for the
