McCredie Claims
New Baseball Not
So Good AS Old

Stockton, Cal, March I'll
Walter McCredie, manager of the
Seattle club of the Coast league,
is the first manager to complain
about the new rubber-cen base
balls which have been adopted for
this year. Last year the league
used ball with a cork center,
but this was thrown out as being
too lively.
"These balls are not exactly
fitted for our purpose" McCredie
said. Maybe we haven't the best
grade of ball or maybe the skin
diamond here is to blame. The
balls seem bigger and deader."

 Directors have been instructed to educate agents along the lines of manufacture and transportation of industrial or denatured alcohol. The men will be taught the difference in varieties of alcohol and 1t IS believed that violations of this nature will be greatly 1essened.
 A signal victory for enforcement was the recent announcement by a Teadnig vaudeville circuit that per formers would not be allowed to make humorous reference to the 18th amendment. Commissioner Haynes is elated that within so short space of time such splendid compliance with a request made by him upon assuming his duties a little over a year ago has been secured, and that editorial and news writers, cartoon ist6, reporters, scenario writer's, play wrights, and performers are lending every aid to law enforcement, thus sounding the prohibition joke death knell,
 Over 12,ooo convictions for viola tlon of the 18th amendment have been obtained in federal courts throughout the country during the part year, showing that courts and jureis are displaying an improved at t1tude.
 Tn the opinion of Commissioner Haynes the most effective weapon in the hands of enforcement officials is the "padlock" provision, which pro- vides that place may be closed as a nuisance This provision Is being enforced throughout the country, some of the most notorious resorts being affected by its operation.
 Conferences will discuss the pro posal made by certain directors that Bertillion records be kept of every bootlegger and moonshiner in order that prompt and accurate identifca- ton may be made of persons who violate the prohibition laws, as we'll as other criminals. The records

Mackenzie for Connecticut states that Commissioner Haynes has insti- tuted a series of conferences of di- rectors and other enforcement of1c- lalS in various sections of the cOun- try to discuss numerous problems and map out plans, for solution, and a conference soon will be held in this state. Several such conferences have already been held and matters of vital concern to the public have been considered.
 Among the problems on which action will be taken Is that of rub ping compounds, which through boot leg channels have caused many deaths Analyses of several hundred gallons of seized product revealed quantities of concentrated Iye, an ex- cessive amount of which remained in the compound even after redistif1a- tion Conspiracy sections of / the Volstead act will be evoked against inject such rubbing compounds into so-valled "near-beer"
 Recent conferences have resulted in recommendation that retail sales of gineers, employees of the Rostagens private railroad are on strike. Wage increases demanded by the employees would augment running expenses by 2,o8I ,ooo 1t is alleged by the Rail road Employers Union

 Unemployment - Improvement of unemployment began i'll March, 1922, and at the close of June conditions showed a noticeable betterment over the situation at the beginning of the year. Nevertheless, the June, 1922, figures for persons wholly unemploy- ed are I4,ooo in excess of those for June, 1921. However, the number of persons partially unemployed has de- creased over 50 per cent.
 Wage Reduction by Agreement.- A conference between representative employees and the executives of the Loetschberg-Berne Neutchatel Rail way, presided over by the state con cillor, resulted in an agreement to, a maximum wage reduction of $I4.27 per year for each permanent employe.
