Sir Josiah Stamp, English capital
ist, discussing reconstruction in Eu-
rope, declared that the crying need
of Europe of the moment is that the
artificial trade barriers which have
divided up the continent like q net
work should he broken down and eco
nornic necessities be allowed to de-
ternine the flow of trade"
He blamed the present crisis in
England on Il fall in price levels,
going deeply into the cause of con-
flict between coal miners and opera
tors, and said "infinite patience" Is
needed to bring about readiustment
Of industry.

VIII Be Aid to Public.

The effect of this legislation is TO
enable the public to provide the COM
mission with funds to defend the
public against increased valuations,
rince the public will pay back through
the rates the sums advanced to the
commission by the companies. The
commission is anxious to have tho
measure enacted at this time because
of the impending reValuatiOn Of the
Washington and Georgetown Gas
Light Cos. The bill. however, still
must be approved by the House.
The mattress bill is intended merely
to prevent the use of insanitary ma
terial In the manufacture of bedding
and the correct labelling of all bedding
dealt in. This bill also awaits House
action.
The third bill passed last night pro-
vides that members of the White
House police force against whom
charges are preferred shall be tried
by the trial board of the Metropolitan
Police Department. The committee
reported that 1t had been found
recently that there is no provision in
existing law to cover the trial of men
attached to the White House corps.
This bill also awaits House action.

Capper Return Awaited.

The legislation to aid mothers with
dependent children was deferred to
await the return of Senator Capper,
chairman of the District committee,
whose wife died yesterday. Senator
Capper has made a thorough study Of
the question and is prepared to de.
fend the plan Of the residents Of
Washington to place this function
under the Board of Public Welfare in
preference to the bill which contem-
plates q separate agency.

last night provides that when the
commission is required to revalue a
property the company shall bear the
expense of the inquiry up to limit
of one-half OF ! per cent of the e~-
listing value. When the commission
makes investigations other than val
uations the expense to be borne by

CHAPLIN SHUNS RADIO
GNIIKEs: TUNNEY UNEASY |

NEW YORK, Dec. q P)-Radio
announcers who introduce celebrities
to the microphone may furnish future
biographers with anecdotes of new
order.
Nils T. Granlund, announcer Of
STATION WIN, who has called upon
many notables for impromptu- enter
tainment, has tales to tell about
several of them.
For instance, Gene Tunney, heavy
weight champion of fistiana, and
Captain Charles Nungesser, flying ace
of France, Granlund says, We're ex-
tremely uneasy during their first
efforts at broadcasting.
JOlson Gets Chummy
Picking out prominent personages
az a banquet, ball or Broadway
supper club, Granlund introduces each
briefly and hands him the mike"
The result is an extemporaneous
program of songs, stories, speeches,
Stammers and shutters Here are a
few of. the announcer's observations:
Al Jolson is chummy with the
mike" So much so that he once
used it to broadcast instructions
for putting his adopted family to
bed and for telling his dog at home
to stop barking at it's masters voice.
Charlie Chaplin makes practice
of declining invitations to broadcast
his voice
Captain Nunguesser brought down
"A enemy, airplanes in the war, but
was so ratified before the microphone
that he had to be constantly prompted.
Cantor Given Lesson
Jack Dempsey, having become some
what of veteran at broadcasting,
is fully at ease when called upon
to say few words
An innovation was introduced by
Granlund in July, 1925, when he held
before the latter's fight with Jimmy
Slattery ''I am going out there to
win just as quick as I can," Shade
said, and ten minutes later he was
back to tell the world, and particu :
larly Mrs. Shade, that he had knocked
out Slattery in the third round.
A willing entertainer has been
found by Granlund in "Sir' Joseph
Ginzburg, a Broadway character who
the announcer says, once showed
Eddie Cantor how to sing.
Cantor dropped into a studio to
broadcast a few songs and stories
sented to contribute a solo for the
instruction of the comedian. Cantor
who has had some experience with
songs, so enjoyed the lesson that
he was overcome with laughter.

REVIEW OF SPORTING EVENTS OF
YEAR SHOWS AMERICA, GERMANY
and FRANCE HOLD SPOTLIGHT

running range of the Phantom Finn.
Nevertheless, with Germany's re-entry
into the Olympic games in 1928, Pelt-
ger will be a formidable contender for
middle distance honors now held by
Lowe of England and Nurmi.
Erich Hagenlacher, the billiard star,
added to Germany's prestige by unex-
pectedly dethroning the young Ameri-
can, Jake Schaefera as worlds 1872
balkline titleholder.
Norway sent over a super-star in the
slim, wiry person of Charley Hoff, who
smashed all American pole vaulting
records indoors and lifted the scales
Of two of this country's most versatile
performers Harold Osborn and Emer-
son Norton, in an all-around test. But
the Vaultink Viking, essaying a coun-
trywide tour, encountered an ineligi-
bility storm-cloud and withdrew from
amateur ranks to accept professional
engagements.
Rivalry between Great Britain and
America spread to many branches of
sport besides golf. Tn tennis, the
American women's team regained the
Wightman cup in a close contest at
WlnOl6QOH, Wnlie IIOW dId INlioCJ e1hN
Vincent Richards teamed to defeat
England's best in a special match
abroad.
American fencers also won back the
Robert NJ. Thompson trophy from
British swordsmen while Yankee rifle
men were victorious in an interna
tional shoot at Risley, England, in
June. The Oxford Cambridge lacrosse
team, touring the country, lost y out
of 13 matches to American teams but
some amends for this disaster were
made when the English universities
combined to beat Princeton and Cornell
at track.
International boxing interest picked
up toward the end of the year with
the addition of Harry Person, the
tatooed Swede, Franz Diener of Ger
many, and Paolino, the Basque wood
chopper, to the list of heavyweight
for Gene Tunney's title. In
the amateur boxing field, South Amer
ican countries scored the years out
standing triumph by defeating picked
team of Americans in five out of eight
classes at Buenos Aires in May

MAKES HIGH SCnRE

PUEBLO, Colo, Dec. 27 P1-Jimmy
Smith, noted bowler, rolled twelve
exhibition games in this city today,
mining seven and losing five. His
high game was 255 and his average
for the II games was PA The fea-
ture game of the day was rolled
with Mrs. Carnahan one of the mem
bers of the Strong Women's team, of
Pueblo. Smith announced that he
would spot Mrs. Carnahan as pins,
but she tied him at 211, without the
handicap by closing her game with
six strikes in row.

one for playing managers.
Five of the games greatest stars
who also carried the added respoT-
sibilities of manager, have passed
out of the picture in little more than
a month.
Ty Cobb, iris Speaker, Roger
Hornsby Eddie Collins and George
sisler, there you have the list OF
deposed leaders.
The passing of the four Ameri,
can league stars from the mana
gerial position came largely as a
result of a decline in their playing
ability. Hornsby, the one lone Ma
tional league star to fall, should be
at the top of his game next season,

New Broom Theory

I doubt if ever in, the history of
baseball will there be such shifting
as during the year 1926.
Eight managers, half the personnel
of the major leagues, have been de 4
posed since the close of the season.
Five of the managers were outstand-
ing stars as players.
There must be any number OF rea
sons for this wholesale slaughter OF
tig league leaders, but as yet nj
very logical arguments have been
offered for the unusual attitude or
the magnates.
Perhaps 1t is the new broom
theory of sweeping clean.

status Of Collins

What about the status of Eddie
Collins? Surely the American league
will not allow him to drift out OF
the organization, for he is still q
mighty capable player.
1t is my thought that Eddie COL
Ems will be with the Philadelphia
Athletics when the season opens.
provided there is no managerial
opening for him. In all probability
there is already an greement be.
tween Mack and Collins that will
bring him to the Athletics should
Eddie not be offered more lucra.
tive position.
Mack is a great admirer of Collins.
HE made Eddie. Incidentally Eddie
is equally keen for Mack, calls him
the games greatest manager and
gives him the entire credit for his
fame in baseball.
Iewould hate to feel that Collins
would be allowed to pass out OF
the American league, 1t would make
it seem as if there was little senti-
nent in the game.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-12-28
Five Stars Pass

In way the passing OF the five
stars as pilots is quite knock at
the playing manager proposition.
Next season stanley Harris will be
the only playing manager i'm tn
American league. A year ago Harris
signed three-year contract to play
and manage and 1T has two years to
go.
In the National league. Dave Ban
croft and Stuffy McInnis are the
only two player leaders. Both these
stars have passed the peak of theil
game, MeInnis in particular, and car
hardly be rated as regulars.
After all, managing a big league
ball club is considerable or a task.
1t is in itself enough of job for
cne man. Playing as we'll as man
aging is a duty that few thrive on.
