Middle West Is
Hit by the Worst
Storm of Winter

Many cities west and north Of Chi
cago, were isolated yesterday from
telegraph and telephone communica-
ton by the worst snow and windstorm
of the winter.
Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakotas,
Iowa and Nebraska, were the worst
sufferers Minneapolis, st. Paul and
other cities in Minnesota, were COM
pletely cut off. Lincoln, Hastings,
Fremont and other Nebraska cities
also were cut off. Milwaukee re-
ceived an interrupted service, but the
rest of the state received little or no
service. The Dakotas appeared to be
cut off. Des Moines, Iowa, was
isolated.
Rain and sleet were responsible for
most of the trouble. Wires sagged
and many broke under the weight of
the ice and pressure of the gale.
Many of the cities were in total
darkness during the night as electric
light wires collapsed. Electric wire
poles gave way in many places.
Railroad service was demoralized in
some portions of the storm area.
Trains were many hours late.
In Nebraska, the wind reached a
velocity of SO miles an hour. Huge
snow drifts are piling up and unless
the storm abates shortly, rail traffic
will be blocked. The storm is sweep
ing eastward.

The Magyar trade unions are pay
ing out enormous sums in unem-
ploy1nent allowance, and their treas
uries are nearly drained. In GER
tain industries, the number Of work
ers dismissed amounts TO two-
thirds Of all those employed. The
trade unions demand state help for
the unemployed and a constructive
building program as necessary
alternative To relief for the unem-
ployed. Labor is also advocating a
bill which shall make II illegal for
employers arbitrarily to shut down
their plants.

SELECTS KELLY
MOST VALUABLE
UTILITY PLAYER

BY NEA Service
Cincinnati. Nov. 4.-Manager Jack
Hendricks of the Reds considers
George Kelly of the New York
Giants the most valuable utility
player in the National League, if
not both major organizations.
The fine showing of Kelly in the
world series, despite the fact that
he struck out twice in pinch in
the final game, bears out Hendricks
opinion of him.
Kelly is a great first baseman--
n fine target for the infielders. He
has wonderful arm and is a
dangerous hitter
Filling in at second base in the
series when Frsch was moved over
to third, Kelly saved the first game
by remarkable play on Goslin. IN

There are few players in the
majors who can perform in the in

Kelly does.

frankie Frisch struck out, Johnson
turning the trick. 1t was his first
strikeout in four world series.
Lindstrom, third baseman for the
Giants, the youngest player in the
series, made four hits in one game
off Walter Johnson, the oldest ath-
lete.
Goose Goslin, by making three
home runs. tied the record that was
held by Babe Ruth and made in 1928.
Washington came from behind TO
win every one of the four games
necessary to decide the baseball
championship.
With runners on, Walter Johnson

Ruel of the Nationals, after going
six games and seven innings of the
