YANKS HAVE EDGE ON
GIANTS IN PITCHING

NEW YORK. Oct, s.@United
Press-Glving the New York Giants
full advantage OF the doubt, 1t might
be assumed that on the offense and
defense OF the infield and the out
field of the National League cham
pions have at least n small margin
of superiority over the Yankee Ameri-
can League pennnnt winners.
Beyond all doubt, however. insofar
rs season records may be expected
to hold good during the worlds
series. the pitchers of the Yankees
are a vastly superior lot to those of
the. Giants.
How much more and better pitch

baseball championship of the world.
only the series itself will be able to
prove.
Last year the same Wanted
strength of the Yankees In the
box did not deliver a champion
ship and the Giants. playing real
baseball behind comparatively poor
pitchers. won the series.
In Sam Jones. Waite Hoyt, Herb
Pennock, Joe Bush and Bob Shaw
key the Yankees have perhaps the
most formidable staff OF pitchers
that n baseball club has ever pos
sessed. There may have been better
pitchers on other teams in the past
and there may be better pitchers
now in the major leagues. but there
never have been more better pitchers
on any club.
Against them the Giants staff, con.
sisting of Jack Scott. Art Neff. Mule
Watson. Rosy Ryan and Jack Bent
ley. suffers by comparison. At his
best. each of the Giant pitchers
would be a match for one of the
Yankee hur,ers. but the weakness of
the McGraw staff consists OF its
lack Of consistency.
McGraw can never be certain when
he makes a selection that he will not
have to make a substitution in the
box before the end of an inning. The
erratic form shown by the Giant
pitchers through two 8 has
led wise cracks to be made recent
ly that Jones would pitch the open
ing game of the series for the
Yankees and that Scott. Nehf. Ryan
and Jonnard would pitch for the
Giants.
Coming with the series OF last fall.
National League supporters looked
with distress upon the weak pitching
staff of the Giants and considered
as most ominous the apparent super

Worlds Deepest

The st. John del Rey mine in Brazil
is the. deepist mine in the world,
Thomas T. Read, supervising. engi-
neer Of the United States bureau Of
mines, reports to the American In
stitute of Mining and Metallurgical
Engineers.
Among the large number Of deep
mines in the world there are several
which do not differ much in DEPTH"
he says. The st. John del Rey mine
has reached a vertical depth Of 6.726
ers enter It, however, through an
adit which intersects the shaft 1924
feet below its top. wherefore 1t might
be said that the mine is really only
6,400 feet deep.
"In the Kolar gold field of India
there are a number Of deep shafts,
one of which reaches to a vertical
depth of 6.140 feet below surface. In
South Africa also there are a num-
being 6,100 feet early in 1921. The
City Deep, Limited, proposed to sink
to a depth of 1000 feet, but presum-
ably by the time 1t does so the St John
del Rey will be deeper than that, since
1t has been increasing in depth at an
average rate Of about $50 feet per
year.

tary Of the Syndicalist League of
North America and in speeches and
articles he had advocated bringing
ABOUT the revolution by the general
strike.
AT the Bridgeman convention Fos-
ter said he made an extemporaneous
speech on the work of the Trade
Union Educational League He gave
long account of what he had said to
convince the communists of the ne
cessity of working hard to propagate
the industrial union idea among the
workers. He also reported progress,
especially mentioning the Chicago
Federation of Labor as having come
out in favor Of the amalgamation
theory and Of labor party.
He also said that radicals and lib
erals. who believed the Gompers ma
chine in the American Federation Of
Labor too powerful to be overthrown,
were mistaken. The whole labor vote
of the country, he added, ought to
get together in one labor party. in
stead OF splitting up and negating
itself in the existing parties His
speech, Foster said, included the
statement that he had attended the
congress Of the Red Internationale in
Russia and that the Red" Interna-
program he had been advocating for
years. On his return to America he
testified he told the convention, he
had put his industrial program be-
fore the central executive commit
tee of the communist party at meet
ing in New York and the committee
had Endorsed it. He added that he had
told the convention that the COM
munists should get together with all
other radicals and liberals in the
Trade Union Educational League,
which he referred to as "a left bloc
movement"
Foster said the relationship be-
tween the communist party Of Amer
lea and his Trade Union Educational
League was confined to an indorse-
ment by the communists of the
league. Foster said he pointed out
to the Bridgman convention that the
socialist party had failed to con-

command of the trade unions. Foster
admitted that he had been pursuing
this policy ever since he had had
anything to do with the labor move
ment. While his goal has always
been to put the workers in control of
the state, he testified, his methods had
changed.
Foster also admitted the truth OF
the charge that he went to Russia in
1921 and brought back a program
laid down by Lenin and other Rus
sian communists for a revolution in
the United States, based upon the
organization of the working men into
industrial unions instead of the
that he had organized the Trade
Union Educational League and had
started the Labor Herald as the off,
cial organ of that league to carry out
this program. He said that he and
his associates had been boring from
within" the American Federation of
Labor, using methods he had learned
in the /. w. w. movement some years
ago, and that the object was to over
throw the capitalist system and set
up communist state of society.
Programs Differ.
Foster explained the differences be-
TWEEN communism and syndicalism-
both as to the goals and tactics of the
two movements. He said the syndical-
lists believed in the labor unions
making a direct assault on the capi-
talist system and operating industry
and society without state, while the
communists believe in organizing a
political party to take control of the
state and then do away with tho
capitalist system.
The witness testified he no longer
believed in the syndicaIist doctrine
that there should be no state and no
general supervising body, but that the
workers in each industry should
manage the affairs of that particular
industry. Foster said he no longer
approved the anarchist doctrine,
w which he subscribed to in 'Syndfcal-
ism," of each taking what he needs.
