"How about Harris? Will he
make a good manager?" we were
asked by John A. Heydler, presi-
dent Of the National League, the

dentown to st. Petersburg. Well,
he could be excused, being in the
other league and admitting that
he had never even seen him play
a game Of ball.
allow is Harris doing?" is the
usual question from player, coach
or scribe and, as little has been
done thus far, we are at a loss
for any sort of a reply.
The majority Of questioners,
especially from New York, grin
and say that "Griff'll be man
ager, as usual" letting it go at
that. New Workers. have had
Griffith claiming the pennant,
as usual" and for three years
manager, as usual" until one
almost begins to believe it. And
yet brief talk with Harris would
dissipate such beliefs.

Some managers, like McGraw,

Naturally, they have more power
than managers such as Lee Fohl,

If questioners expect Harris to
be given the authority Of a Nc
Graw or Connie Mack, or even

be disappointed. But If they
doubt he has the authority Of q
Frank Chance, q Lee Foil or q
George Sisler, they are wrong.
Bucky Harris is all a manager

TOKYO, Nov. 2s-Japan believes
ratification of the nine-power treaty is
the most essential factor now towards
providing a settlement Of the Chinese
question, according to one of the best
informed government officials.
In this connection, it was pointed
out today that this treaty which was
drawn at the time of the Washington
arms conference provides the machin
cry necessary for solving China's prob
lens. The treaty also offers the OPP
portunity to the signatory powers for
forcing China to come to terms with
them.
In the event that France continues
to delay ratification of the nine-power
treaty the suggestion has been adj
vanced here that four power con
sortium to include the United States

capable Of drafting plan for STABILIZE
ing Chinas finances.

Of the Egyptian masses is rising and

countries under British rule, urging
the Egyptians to resist the further

Another significant incident Of the
