FOR TARIFF WALL
Seeks to Curtail British Un-
employment by Aiding
Manufacturers.
By the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
MANCHESTER, England, November
S.-Prime Minister Baldwin in his
speech here last night declared that
drastic measures were required to
solve England's problem of wide
spread Unemployment He had never
been a doctrinaire economist and he
regarded the economic system as one
OF expediency rather than principle,
but he added
The period of observation is past.
1 find myself here with my mind
made up that If we are to attack the
problem of unemployment we must
nave recourse to radical and drastic
measures"
The premier also developed his pro-
tectiontst policy somewhat further.
manufactured goods, with special re-
gard to those imports which caused
the greatest amount of unemploy-
ment; to give substantial preference
TO the dominfons, but not to tax meat.
we are living in camouflaged
peace, and no war in our history has
had such economic reactions as the
late war" said the premier. Nobody
is able to predict when stability will
return to Europe. Therefore England
must rely upon itself and look to it's
own future. We shall never make
other nations lower their tariff by
waiting"
Declaring that the expectation of
cotton-sptnning machinery to the far
east had put a weapon of competition
into the hands of cheap labor, Mr.
Baldwin said: "As long as 1 have
the responsibility of government /
shall never be satisfied until we have
so developed our empire that we shall
be absolutely Independent of America
with regard to cotton growing"
The premier said he believed the
empire could grow sugar and tobacco,
not only to satisfy it's own needs, but
to cheaper them to the rest of the
world and thus ease the burden on
Great Britain's shoulders

A major league swap a be
classed as a blindfolded lottery with
out libeling anybody.
It is legal in baseball business, but
as to the winner and the loser
well, it is a snatch-grab exchange,
with the ultimate result, success or
failure, not known until months
later.
Branch hickey, manager of the st.
Louis Cardinals, today is laughing
and shifting at Charles Z. Ebhets
and WILDER Robinson CT the Brook

Didn't Hickey exchange Ferdinad
Schupp and Harold Janvrin for Ed
Pfeffer during the summer of 1921?
OF course he did,
And didn't Pfeffer have one of the
most prosperous seasons of his long
career with the Cardinals during
1922?
And at the same time. move your
finger around the list of National
League players and try to locate
schupp and Janvrin. 1t cantNp Dc
done.
Schupp now Is located with Kan
sas City in the American Associa-
ton, while Janvirn recently was re-
leased to the Seattle club of the Pa
cifc Coast League.
Pfeffer was the winning pitcher
on the Cardinals staff in 1929. win
ning nineteen and losing twelve
games. while with an earned run
average of 3.5S he surpassed such
artists as Alexander, Meadows, Nc

The second annual City Volley Ball
League will be organized Monday
hight at a meeting of the captains
OF the various teams which Will en-
ter this tournament this year. The
prospects of q big league with even
ly matched teams are bright and a
Dig turnout of captains is antici-
rated.
In order that the teams may be as
evenly matched as possible this year,
captains will be permitted to make
bids in writing for the men they
wish to add to their teams. A COM
physical director, will then place
these men on the teams they believe
to be in need of additional strength,
and in this way it is hoped to have
teams which will be capable of CIV
ing each other a real battle.
Last years league was a success,
but some of the teams entered were
so weak that they could not put up
stiff opposition against the more ex-
pert teams. The Bakelite combina-
ton, which won the league cham
pionship, for instance. lost but one
match. while several others lost but
or three. The captains of the
weak teams this year may request
the assigning of one or two fast
players. in order to bolster up these
combinations.
An entrance fee will be charged
each team this year, the same to
be forfeited if the team fails to ap-
pear for three games. If a team
plays throughout the schedule three
quarters of this entrance fee will be
returned, provided the league as a
whole does not vote to keep the fee
for a 'feed'' or prizes at the con-
clusion of the tournament.
There will sbe but one meeting of
this league, that being the orgauiza-
ton session Monday night. A sched-
ule will be made and the men bid
for places on the various teams. No
team can enter after next Tuesday.
Forfeited games have been the
cause of many leagues not only vol
ley ball, but bowling. basketball and
baseball failing, and an effort will
to have no forfeited games.
Physical Director S. C. Pew is
certain that the interest in this years
league will be such as to make it
by far the most successful tourna-
ment of its kind ever conducted
here. At least ten teams are ex-
pected to be entered.
From the outlook at present it
appears certain that the following
teams will be entered: Nationals,
Professional Men, Merchants. Press,
Bakelite, Dry Docks Atlantic Terra
Gotta, U. S. Metals, Lead Works,
Bankers and Lawyers.

that he will take off the Betsytown

a hummer.
