A catcher is a leader. Like all
leaders he must have a level head
and reliable judgment under all con-
ditions. His is the responsibility of
sizing up a batter and signaling the
pitcher as to what style ball to use
to put the batter out. The catcher
can be called the handspring of the
team. lie stands facing the whole
team and they look for him to ex-
hibit pep and energy all the time.

Asks Appropriation In Increase Units

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-Impressed by the necessity for the adequate power installation at the Wilson Dam of the Muscle Shoals, Ala. project, Secretary Weeks has recommended that the budget director approve an estimate for $2,000,000 appropriation, which would double the capacity of the dam by increasing the power units to be erected there from four, as was originally contemplated, to a total of eight.
 Work of preparing specifications ready has been started by army en- gineers
 Army engineers believe that the s2,000,00 appropriation recommended by MT. Weeks and which is supple mented tL the appropriations pro vided by Congress for the completion of the dam on a four power unit plan, will be sufficient to meet the total costs of the additional four units.
 At the time Secretary Weeks sub mitted to Congress the offer of pur- chase and lease of the Muscle Shoals properties made by Henry Ford, he recommended that regardless of the action taken by Congress on the Ford proposal, the Wilson Dam should be cor pleted as was intended when the wartime developments of waterpower and nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals was started.
 Work of preparing specifications for the eight unit installation al ready has been started by army en- gineers.

 II. K. Ramsey. replying to afsi- davits in which Henry J. Norton and J. c.

The plain tiffs had charged that Dr. Evans and Christy split fees received from new members.

CROP WEATHER IN
 SOUTH FAVORABLE
Cotton Picking Nearly Completed
 And Corn Being Gathered

WASHINGTON, oct. 31.-The weekly weather and drop review is- sued today by the department of ag- riculture, described conditions of southern crops as follows:
 Favorable temperatures prevailed over the more eastern districts of the cotton belt but in the western states there was much cloudy, rainy and cold weather. Picking is nearly completed in all districts except over the northern states of the belt, par ticularly in Oklahoma and western and northern Texas; in Oklahoma on account of wet weather cotton is rot ting, and sprouting in the bolls which are opening slowly and picking is much delayed.
 Truck crops range from poor to good in the Gulf states and they need more rain in the South Atlantic area.
 Sweet potato harvest is becoming general in the southern states with the ground ip excellent condition for digging in Arkansas and crop most ly housed in Tennessee.
 Cutting and grinding of sugar cane is under way in the southeast ern states and syrup making is gem eral in Alabama and South Carolina.
 The corn crop is being gathered generally in the gulf and southeast ern states, though frost checked growth in some central districts.

SAYS METHOIDSTS FACE
 BIG CRISIS IN RUSSIA
Bishop Sees Chance To Shape Re- ligious And Social Ideals

DIES MONIES, la, Oct. S1.-Method- ism faces great opportunity and a great responsibility in Russia de- clared Bishop Edgar Blake of Paris. France, in an address here tonight before the 'Women's Missionary so- ciety of the Methodist Episcopal church.
 Ut is within our power" he said, "to shape in a large measure the evangelistic and social ideals of the Russian church, and to determine, in large degree, the lines of its fu- ture development
 Bishop Blake said that sympathetic contacts already had been establish ed in Russia. "If we have the states manship to grasp and guide a great opportunity" he said, i've can save the Russian church and in so doing save Russia.
 "Personally I have a profound faith in the unselfish idealism of American methodism. Leaders may hesitate and officials become afraid, but I have never known the great rank and file of our people to hesi- tate or hold back in a great emer- gency when the call of God was sounding for advance. I do not be- lieve they will fail now"
 Bishop Blake attracted considerable attention several months ago when he went to Russia to investigate re- ligious conditions of that country as a representative of the board of bish - ops of the Methodist church. The Paris bishop and Dr. Hartman, editor of the Zions Herald, who accom- panied him, pledged themselves to raise s50,000 in America during the next three years to underwrite the educational program of the Russian church,

ENGLAND OPPOSES SL|CING GE ERMANY
Independent RhineIand Gov ernment Will Not Be ReC-
 ognized, States Baldwin

LONDON, Oct 31.-(By Associated Press.)-By notes delivered to the French and Belgian governments to- day. the British government puts into formal form the announcement made recently by Premier Baldwin tlat the government cannot view with equanimity the creation of sep arate states in Germany or the dis memberment of that country.
 The notes declare that Great Brit ain cannot recognize an independent Rhineland republic, de facto or de jure, because such republic is con- trary to the treaty of Versailles.
 British action in this respect is in- spired in the first place by the reali- zation that the disinlegration of Ger ernment, which could be held re- sponsible under the Versailles treaty, and in the second place, by the fact that recognition of the Rhineland republic would cause end less embarrassment to the British government in the Cologne zone, where the British troops might be- come in volved in the delicate task of keeping order among the contend ing German factions.
 While British troops are kept in the Rhine--and many voices here recently have advocated their with drawal-the government is obliged to exercise every care to avoid em- barrassing complications It is argued in London that 1t might happen that the inhabitants of the Cologne district would prefer to remain loyal to the Reich, even if a Rhineland re- public were established, and since much evidence has been forthcoming to prove that the French govern ment favors the creation of such a republic, this would bring the Brit ish into direct confluce with France at time when, in view of the en- trance of America into another repa- ratlons conference, it is more than

LIQUOR TREATY T0 BE ARRANGED SOON
Great Britain's Ships Seek Permission To Carry
 Wet Goods Sealed
By CHARLES M. M'CANN ILcnsed Wire to The Age-HeraId)


 LONDON, Oct. S1.-Great Britain has come out in open approval of Americas Emile limit plan to cope with rum running in coastal waters of the United States.
 Lord Curzon is presenting the inn perial conference with the recom- mendation that the United States be granted the right to search and seize ships attempting to violate the law within the 12-mi1e limit.
 Early Approval Predicted.
 It was predicted that the confer ence would immediately approve the plan.
 The Anglo-American agreement re- Earding the 12mile limit will be em- bodied in a treaty which will be sub mitted to the United States Congress in December. The treaty will in clude permission for British ships to carry sealed liquor within the Anter- ican three mile limit
 Public Opinion Aroused.
 British officials have realized that activities of rum runners, sailing under the British flag, have created an unfavorable impression in the United States and left Britain open coupled with wild stories told by re- turned rum runners, aroused public opinion on the question. Simultaneously Britain has been anxious to find way out of the re- striction on ship liquor. British ship ping men have bonn barded the foreign office with demands that the govern ment persuade the United States to allow bonded liquor stores in Ameri- can ports. By admitting the Amer ican request for extended right of search and seizure, Britain will end the smuggling irritation and placate her own ship owners.
