". The Political Situation in
the United States.

1 Since the late imperialist war,
L. fundamental and radical changes
have taken place in the economic
structure, class composition, and class
relations in the United States. Amer
lean capitalism has become a world
power Finance capital with its inn
perialist policies is dominating the
life of the country. Large sections of
the farmers have been appropriated
in the recent agrarian crisis and
thrown into the ranks of the prOie-
tariat. The tendency toward the level
ling process which took place during
the war thru the lsos, to a certain ex-
tent, Of their privileged position by
the aristocracy Of labor and the i'm
provement of the position of the un-
skilled workers. The proletarianiza-
tion of the farmers, the influx of large
masses of Negroes into industry, and
the great diminution of immigration
from Europe, have made the American
working class more homogeneous thus
creating the basis for a sharper and
more conscious struggle of the work
ers against the capitalists. The in
creased Capitalization and power OF
the American government and the
tremendous increase of the govern
mental bureaucracy, during and fol
lowing the late imperialist war, as
compared with the pre-war period, and
ffc ful mt orfnr -,
class struggle in favor of the cap
italists and against the workers, is
gradually instiIling political conscious
ness into the minds Of the masses and
is creating the basis for great po-
ltical mass movement of the workers
against the capitalists.
. The period of jubilation and con-
@' tidence in the camps of the cap
italists, following the election of Cool
idge to the presidency, has largely
evaporated. Instead of industrial pros
perity, the country is approaching a
period of depression. Conflicts and
friction within the capitalist class, are
again coming to the surface. Witness
the internal struggle in the ranks of
the republican and democratic parties
and the revival of dissatisfaction with
present conditions among the farmers
and the city petty bourgeoisie.
. A characteristic indication or the
u internal conflicts within the bour-
geoisie is the intensifying struggle
within the protestant churches be-
tween the so-called fundamentalists
and the modernists. The Scopes triat
is only more spectacular manifesto
tion of the general political disintegra-
tion of the American bourgeoisie.

class, movement developes for the
formation of a labor party, indicating
the growing political consciousness of
the American workers. Even the
breaking away of several millions of
workers from the two old capitalist
parties to support the candidacy of
LaFollette indicated an advance in the
development of the class conscious
ness of the American workers.
= In the last election campaign the
u movement for the formation of
labor party was diverted into sup

S25,O0O IS WHAT
 FRISCH DEMANDS
Giant Captain and Second Sacker
 Is HOld0ut

New York, Feb. 20. Frank Frisch, captain and second baseman of the National league champion Giants is an extraordinary holdout
 The flash of Fordham will spice his spring training with argument regarding q salary increase. It is re- ported that Frisch received S17,00 a year and aims at $25,000, and one of his main arguments is that not so long ago the Giants sought the serv- ices of Rogers Hornsby, leading bat ter of the National league, but re- fused to swap Frisch for him.
 Frank starts south with the first detachment of McGrawmen to- morrow and threatens to carry his battle right through the official camp at Sarasota. This In itself, is unusual as 1t has been understood that Manager McGraw has drawn up an iron-clad rule at the teams ex- pense. However, 1t would seem that an exception has been made in the case Of Frisch.
 Bill Ryan and Hugh McQuillan of the pitching staff are scheduled to leave tomorrow and Jack Bentley has promised 10 board the train at Baltimore. Among the other early starters, most of whom are enter. ing major league training for the first time are Jim Tunney of Holy Cross Jack Manners, John Wisner and Frank Dobson. Walter Hunt ginger and Howard Baldwin. of the Giants sophomore class, will start from New York.
 The first section of the Yankees leaves this afternoon for St. Peters, burg where Manager Miller Huggins awaits them. Coaches George Wiltse and Paul Krichell will go along with a squad of recruit pitchers.

 Hickey was pioneer in training camp developments. introducing chalk talks. batting cages and slid- ing pits.
 When I introduced batting cages, sliding pits, morning meetings and chalk talks. everybody said l was a theorist," he said. They laughed at me, but every big league club now does the things which when first done caused me to be called a theorist.
 "Years ago only two managers had meetings. Connie Mack was one and was the other. Now they all have them and managers who are hopeless and helpless at those meetings, who can teach noth- ing, have their meetings just the same, because if they didn't they would be criticized"
 "The Same thing is true of every thing I introduced. They laughed at my batting cages but who leads the league in batting?
 "Of course we have Rogers Hornsby to raise the team average but excluding him we have a team of sluggers. Why? The batting cages largely"

(BY BILLY EVANS)

One of the most mysterious cases in baseball has Allan Sothoron for the leading character.
 Here was a pitcher who was recognized sone' of the richest prizes ever found. He had a fast ball, a splitter, a curve, change of pace, control-well, just everything that a great pitcher requires.
 And Sothoron lived as a pitching star-but not for long. A weakness was discovered. Show the oppos- ing side weak spot and it plays through it.
 Sothoron, with an iron arm and rare intelligence, could not control his throw once he tielded the ball.
 On bunts or easy taps hit straight to him he lost his bearings. With one swish of his arm he threw threw in any direction, which usual- ly was yards away from his fielder.
 Lowest Fielding Average
 To first, second, third base or the plate, Sothoron aimed and fired.
 And eventually he threw himself out of the American league"
 In 1920 Sothoron registered the lowest fielding percentage ever re- corded by a regular pitcher, having an average Of .S13 with II errors, 12 putouts and 49 assists.
 Sothoron passed from the Browns to the Red Sox, thence to the Cleve- land Indians. Iris Speaker thought he could correct the fault but gave up the job after a years trial.
 Sothoron, disgusted with himself, retired from baseball in 1922. But the germ worked its way back in his system and he accepted transfer to the Louisville Colones in the American Association in 1923.
 The scene changes. Branch Hickey, as manager of the St. Louis Browns in 1914. discovered Sothoron. And he refused to believe that such an evil could not be corrected. He took chance and purchased Sothoron for his St. Louis Cardinals in 1924.
 Made Two Perfect Records
 The story is not closed. Sothoror was one of the few pitchers with a perfect fielding average in the Ma tional league last season He handled 37 chances in his 29 games making 35 perfect throws in aiding in the retirement of batters or run. ners.
 Branch Rickey's system of train. ing probably explains the secret There was a special course in field. ing bunts for Sothoron at the Car. dinals' camp last spring
 On the first one Hickey shouted "I have it."
