Covey and Marberry Effective,
But Ogden Is Hammered Hard,
So Giants Defeat Mats, 5 to 4

TAMPA, Fla. March 19.--All the
Nationals did today was threaten to
beat the Giants. After getting a.
single-run lead in the second inning,
Bucky Harris and company slipped
behind in the fourth and thereafter
only managed to reduce repeatedly
the scant lead the New Workers
accumulated. 1t was a good battle
to watch, but the Giants won, to 4.
Manager Harris showed two pitch
ers that were in good form and an
other that apparently had nothing
with which to battle John McGraw's
gang. Old Stanley Coveleskie, spit
ball specialist, went through the first
three innings and gave the Giants
only one hit, triple In the third
session. Fred Marberry worked
through the last four rounds and
yielding two singles and three passes.
One of these walks and one of the
blows was good for marker in the
ninth. 1t was the first showing of
the training season in an inter-
league game for both OF these
hurlers.
But between their turns on the
hill, Curly Ogden toiled in a pair of
innings and he spilled the beans.
Two singles, a. double and two free
tickets to first that he gave up In
the fourth netted the Giants two
runs, one Of which was forced across
the plate In the fifth, a rousing
home run by George Harper, fol-
lowing single by Bevo Lebourveau,
spelled Ogden's finish.
Face Grimes and Henry.
The Nationals faced the pitching
of the veteran Burleigh Grimes for
FIVE innings and that of the left
handed Dutch Henry for four. Five
of their eight hits and two Of their
three passes were at Grimes ex-
pense. He was weakening fast In
his last round when the Nationals
shot two runs across.
There was little of the sensational
in the game other than fashy
catch by Sam Rice in the sixth. The
National gardener raced far to his
left for a one-handed grab of Travis
Jacksons line drive.
In the first inning, the only hit
ting was done by the Nationals. but
it got them nothing. With Myer out

Lacquer in left, only to be forced

man had been erased. Al had to

Lebourveau's short loft was bagged
by Rice.
Ogden Runs Into Trouble.
Ogden went to the slab against the
New Workers in the fourth frame and
had his troubles. Lindstrom, first to
face the new pitcher, slapped a
single to left. Hornsby laced a hard
one toward the pitcher and Ogden

Army Engineers
In Argument to
Keep L.evee Craft

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. a.
Carefully eliminating all possibility
of re-forestation of the head water
drainages and making the use of gov
eminent owned power plants diff
cult, the army presented yesterday to
President Coolidge, for perusal before
it goes to congress, plan for main
tanning the levee graft.
Mississippi river levees of unpre-
cedented height and thickness, ex-
tending from Cairo, H., to the Gulf
are called for in the plan. There will
be many fat contracts to general con-
struction companies involved. So
A desultory defense is included in
the report Of the $50 army and civil
ian engineers working on this plan
for the levee system of controlling
Mississippi river floods.
Some defense is required, as there
has been severe criticism from Euro
pean flood engineers, who point out
that the levee system has never so far
prevented any big river floods.

NY. Labor Department
Attempts to Explain
Away Unemployment

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. IA (FP)..--
Only makers of holiday goods have
been taking on more workers in the
last month, the New York state labor
department states. Commissioner
James Hamilton attempts to excuse
the slowness of unemployment in the
seasonal trades that usually boom
from October by saying buyers de-
ferred purchases for winter because
of late warm weather. He admits
that employment is less than last
year, however, even in the holiday
trades.
Garment shops and paper box fac
tories dependent upon them report
less employment than year ago.
Many Of these have laid off workers
instead of taking on at this usually
busy season. Candy factories, which
began their holiday preparations in
October, are actually decreasing their
forces, Hamilton reports.

FASCIST LEAGUE
BASED ON ANTI
LABOR VIOLENCE
Tresca Answers State
ments by Revel .

Notification of the charge of antic-
fascists that the Fascist League of
North America is based on violence
and is primarily anti-labor in its
purposes was found yesterday in a
published interview with Count Thaon
Di Revel, president of the Fascist
League, according to Carlo Tresca,
editor of II Martello. The interview
was published in New York news
paper.
Tresca is also head Of the Anti
fascist League of North America and
a member of the committee formed
to defend Calogero Greco and Donate
Carrillo, workers scheduled to go on
trial for murder December in the
Bronx. They are alleged to have killed
two anti-fascists.
League Anti-Labor.
"Di Revel's real mission in the
United States is not to cement the
so-called bond of friendship between
the United States and Italy, as he
boasts" Tresca said "His mission
is to maintain and direct his league
as guerilla organization in behalf
of the fascist government of Italy
and against the workers of Italian
descent in this country, who oppose
Mussolini's terrorism. The only bond
of the kind of which he speaks is
that between the New York House of
Morgan and the fascist government
at Rome.
"This interview, in which Revel
boasts that his purpose lis to fight
the radicals by force if necessary,
contains no new facts for us. Fascism,
which Revel represents in this
country, is based on violence directed
against the working class. In Italy
Revel's compatriots have looted hun
dreds of trade union offices and
burned dozen of cooperative
stores

Politicians Speculate
On Coolidge Choice of
Breakfast Table Peers

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA (FP). -
Since President Coolidge had as his
breakfast guests at the White House
on Nov. not only Mayor "Big Bill''
Thompson of Chicago, but Gov. Len
Small of Illinois and former Sen.
BILLY" Lorimer of that state, capital
politicians have heatedly argued the
question as to whether this social was
Coolidge's announcement that he
would not accept the Republican NOM
nation next year even if it were Of
fered to him.
On the one hand it was urged that
Coolidge would not have permitted
these near-outcasts of respectable
public life to enter his home unless he
were seeking their support for next
year. On the other hand it was
claimed that the scandal of their being
invited could be explained only on the
ground that Coolidge had ceased to
care for public opinion because he was
through with office-seeking. The adj
vocates of this view said that Coolidge
had thumbed his nose at the public
and shown the world what type of
persons he naturally would select as
companions when not looking for
votes.
Lorimer, expelled from the Senate
as corruptionist, chiefly because of
the fight made by the late Sen. La
Toilette against him, was notorious
also for the collapse of his bank, in
which hundreds of depositors lost their
savings. Vice President Dawes, then
a banker in Chicago, was found re-
sponsible in the courts for having lent
Lorimer, secretly, a lot of securities
with which Lorimer fraudulently per-
suaded the bank examiners that he
had assets upon which bank charter
should be issued

American Bridges Are
Studied by U. S. S. r.
Delegation Now Here
(By Federated Press.)

Bridging the rivers of Soviet Rus
STA with structural steel is one of the
biggest jobs Of industrial reconstruc-
ton Russia is now undertaking, say
engineers who are touring America to
study American bridge building meth
DDS.
The opening of the 18th year of the
Bolshevik regime finds the Soviet
Union with $4,000 miles Of railways,
1000 more than before the war, with
much new track under way. Heavier
bridges are needed for the new Rus
sian locomotives. ..
Before the war Russian railroads
had locomotives of a maximum size oil
from 60 to 70 TONS" said Prof. V. P.
Nikolaev, manager of the bridge
building section of the Metal Admin
istration of the Soviet Union, who
heads the group of visiting engineers
"Since at present the Soviet Union is
building larger locomotives the new
bridges are designed for locomotives
up to $50 tons. Within the next five
years it will be necessary to recon
struct at least so per cent of the
railroad bridges in the whole Soviet
Union.
"Our existing structural iron works
although up to their pre-war capacity
cannot produce enough parts for the
new bridges. Therefore the govern
ment has decided to build 2 new
bridge plants in the Donetz Basin and
in the Urals. Each of these plants
will have an annual capacity of co.
600 tons of metal shapes, aside from
other structural materials. We ex.
pect to visit many bridge works in
Pittsburgh, Chicago, Gary, Indiana
and Bethlehem"

She and two other weavers at the
Converse mill, with the assistance OF
four battery filters, young girls of IA,
Is and 16, now do the work formerly
allotted to 10 weavers. The weavers,
driven to the limit of human endur-

get S13.
There is plenty Of rebellion in the

we were being cheated of our wages.
But he said we were making more
money. Yes, l said, we are making
two to three dollars more q week, but
how much more is the mill making by
cutting down the number of weavers
from 10 to and getting the same
production?

as bad as Converse. They're all alike.
If we're ever going to get better con-
ditions, we'll have to get them out OF
the mills we're working for now.
"But it's awfully hard to organize
the workers, to make them stick.
