 SISLER IS OUT OF GAME
 ON ACCOUNT OF ILLNESS

NEW ORLEANS, April 11.-George Sisler, the great first baseman of the St. Louis Amercian League team, con- sidered to be one of the greatest ball players of the present day, and the leader of his league last year in many departments of the game, is reported to be out of the game for all time. Physicians who have examined Sisler state that he cannot play at all this year, and perhaps never, due to an i'm paired condition of his eyesight fol- lowing an attack of the flu. Sisler is determined to get into the game if possible, and he plans to submit to a delicate eye operation soon in the hope that the fans may see him in uni form this coming season.

HOME RADIO SETS

When talking machines began to improve
to the point where they could give out good
music performed by famous artists, there
was a good deal OF fear in concert and opera
circles lest they become serious torn OF
competition with the public performance.
How utterly unjustitied this fear was Is seel
in the unspeakably swift development OF m'l-
sic in the last few wears, music both private
and public
The record heard at home did not state the
desire Of the music lover SO that he did not
care to hear more On the contrary, record
heard at home have stimulated interest III
public performances TO degree impossible
to imagine few years ago t.ts
Radio seems to have caused the same
fears, and experience IS proving them equally
unfounded. After the transmission OF The
Flving Duchman' from the Manhattan OPP
era House recently" says music magazine,
radio enthusiasts camored for admission to
the next performance.
There is a great hunger all over the world
for beauty and intellectual and artistic JOYS.
This hunger is no more aliaved by the little
tastes given by monographs, radio and pho,o-
graphs OF art works in newspapers than a
healthy appetite is satisfied by the morSelS

SUPREME COURT Criticism

Nowhere else in all the world is there a
tribunal with such authority. We Americans

gress. There is the business OF drafting bills

Is it to be law or not That depends
upon the nine iurists OH the Supreme Bench
If as many as five OF them say no, nothing
short OF constitutional amendment q a

That is from a newspaper rated as con
SENTATIVE Here is something on the same
subject from radical paper, the Socialist
Milwaukee Leader;
The power OF the Supreme Court to pass
upon the constitutonaity of acts of Congress
is wholly usurped. 1t should be abolished
completely Political democracy will not
exist as long as five seven or nine men can
defeat the will OF the people.
1t Is easy 10 ma similar views eNPleSSeu
by scores of other papers, OF various shades
OF opinion. 1t might as we'll be recognized
that the Supreme Court is under fire today
more than it has been for decades-not be-
cause people think that the Judges are dis
honest or incapable, but because they think
that declaring laws unconstitutional by bare
majority OF disagreeins Judges, when the
people themselves want those laws, is an I'M
warranted practice.
There is probably no way OF allayins the
more radical type of criticism except by ac-
cepting the more conservative criticism and
requiring larger majority for decisions, so
that one judge out OF nine may no longer be
in position to thwart the will OF Congress,
President and nation.

THE NEWER RUSSIA

Just as Lenine and his advisers
abandoned the economic policy OF
communism more than year ago
and adopted in part few OF the
principles of capitalistic civlIlza-
ton, so he and they threw over
board many of their earlier prin-
ciples in regard to foreign policy.
The most marked of these was
the Wanted principle of respect
for the rights of other nations.
That involved the sacrifice of the
most valuable of the. fruits OF
Czarist foreign policy. When
they acquired power the Bolshe-
visits published broadcast the Sc
cret agreements and imperialistic
plans they found in the archives
of the chancellery in Petrograd
and announced: eve shall aim
at no aggression, no violation Of
national rights. but shall keep
strictly 20 our territory. All con-
cessions extorted under duress BY
our predecessors are hereby can
cled."
With this heroic gesture Boil
shevism appealed to the world as
representing. among other
things. an altruistic foreign pol
icy. The nations at which the
Romanoffs had aimed their I'M
perialistic policy took heart,
China and Persia particularly.
They reasoned that at last they
might get rid of some of the m
Justices fastened on them by the
Russian colossus.

nese Eastern Railway which runs
